Pretty Mama

Please read the dog's entire bio before you apply. Sadly, we are no longer able to respond to every application, but if your application appears to be a good match for the dog we will reach out within 3 days.<br/>Pretty Mama is a female maltipoo 1-1.5 year old maltipoo. She is just under 13 lbs and so full of joy, she loves everyone and is happy to meet new people. Mama is so much happiness and energy. She has had a rough life, streets, shelter, short term adoption with someone who was not prepared for long term dog ownership and nothing brings her down. She will need more training and would love a devoted home. Mama does have a heart murmur, she had an echocardiagram with a cardiologist and was diagnosed with valvular pulmonic stenosis. It is a rare congenital defect causing severe obstruction of blood flow out of the pulmonary arteries. By looking at her, you would never know she has a heart condition, she is active and fun and does not run out of energy easy, as a matter of fact she was spayed and did well with that as well. However, she will need to be on lifelong medication called atenolol and follow ups with a vet on regular bases. We know there is someone out there who wont mind this medical needs pup, we seem to have had quite few of these heart patients lately and most do so well with proper management.<br/>Most of our dogs are not available to an out of the area adoption because of difficulty to follow up. If you do not live within a 2 hr drive of Orange County, please email us before applying to see if the dog you are interested in may be a candidate for long distance adoption. We may consider long distance adoptions for dogs who have been in our rescue for 6 + months with no local candidates.<br/>If you are interested in adopting one of our rescues, please visit our main website for adoption procedures at www.pupsandpals.net and then fill out our application.

Please note that we put lots of time and effort to make sure our pets are ready to be someone's perfect pet before they go home.... and to make sure that we will have the best possible match for this pet we do require an : application, interview, adoption fee and in some cases a home check.<br/>Listed for adoption: 2/23/26<br/>Adoption fee: $250<br/>PLEASE DO NOT call or email to see if a pet is available.
