Malcom
5 months. neutered male, 13 lbs
Terrier mix

PERSONALITY TRAITS: Malcom is playful and friendly to people and plays well with other dogs his size. He is snuggly with humans, and loves a good blanket and lap. He is full of energy and need room to run whether in a yard or with regular daily walks.

LIKES: Playing, and cuddling, giving love nibbles, and being underneath the blankets.

DISLIKES: Sharing food/toys. He also seems a little intimidated by bigger dogs.

CRATE TRAINING: He is crate trained. He doesn't whine and can be crated for a while during the day.

POTTY TRAINING: He is doing well in his foster home, using the crate to help him at night and regular trips outside.

OTHER/MISC: Malcom would be Ok as the only dog in the house as long as he has regular exercise. Unknown with cats. Malcom has some territorial aggression that would need to worked on through training if adopted to a home with another dog, especially around food and high-value toys such as bones. He does Ok with the other foster dog, who is a little submissive. He has done great with all ages of humans. He is alert, but stops when told and is learning his manners. Malcom would benefit from puppy training classes and from specific training around territorial aggression to help him be the best dog he can be.

Tell us about yourself, family, other pets, and how MALCOM will mesh with your lifestyle. Qualifying applicants will be contacted by our Adoption Coordinator with next steps and an opportunity to set up a Meet & Greet.

Our process is NOT a “first come, first served” process. (We DO NOT hold pets for later consideration.) Our team carefully reviews and interviews applicants for the best possible fit for each adoptable pet, and potential family. Submitting an application does not guarantee a call or response from our rescue. Our volunteers will screen the applications and reach out if it is determined to be a good fit.

We look forward to facilitating a positive and solid adoption for MALCOM as well as his future family.
