About Jeffrey

Meet Jeffrey, a charming little Maltese Terrier mix weighing around 8-10 lbs. This sweet boy was abandoned in the high desert, but he’s ready for a loving home. At about 1-2 years old, Jeffrey is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. His medium-length fur doesn't shed much, making him a low-maintenance companion, though we can’t guarantee he’s hypoallergenic. With a gentle and mellow personality, Jeffrey gets along well with other dogs but prefers to keep to himself, seeking the comfort of a human lap instead of engaging in play. He’s crate-trained but would much rather follow you around, showcasing his affectionate side. Jeffrey would thrive in a quiet household where someone can provide the companionship he craves, as he doesn’t like to be left alone for long periods. This little guy is looking for that special someone to build a bond with. If you think you can provide the love and attention Jeffrey needs, reach out directly!
