History: Valentino is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!
A Note from the Foster: Meet this sweet 3-year-old Maltese named Valentino who’s ready to find his forever home! He has a calm and gentle nature, spending most of his time quietly observing or relaxing near his favorite people. He only barks briefly when settling into his kennel at night, then quickly calms down.
He absolutely loves being close to his foster mom and her children, happily following them from room to room and enjoying their company. He’s doing well on walks using a harness and is becoming more confident each day. He’s also doing a great job going outside to use the bathroom.
This little guy is just starting to discover the fun of toys and is learning how to play, which has been a joy to watch. With a patient and loving home, he’ll continue to blossom and show more of his playful personality.
If you’re looking for a loyal, gentle companion who will stay close by your side, he could be the perfect match for you.
Adoption Fee: $510 + tax
Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
