Stevie's Story

THIS IS A COURTESY POST. Contact information on this dog is at the end of his bio. Do NOT contact Metropolitan Maltese Rescue.<br/><br/><br/>✨ Meet Stevie ✨<br/>Stevie is a resilient, approximately 2-year-old lad who is finally discovering how big and beautiful the world is! After being rescued from a difficult hoarding situation just one month ago, this charismatic little man has blossomed into a joyful companion ready for his "furever" home.<br/>🐾 The Essentials<br/>• Age: Approximately 2 years old<br/>• Breed: Maltipoo (Maltese, Poodle)<br/>• Health: Neutered, fully vaccinated, and healthy<br/>• Social: Great with dogs and cats!<br/><br/>🧸 Personality & Play<br/>Stevie is the ultimate companion. After spending the first years of his life never setting foot outside, he is making up for lost time with curiosity and zest.<br/>• The "Little Brother" Energy: He is learning how to play with toys and loves to playfully "steal" them from his foster sister.<br/>• Quick Learner: Despite his past, he has worked hard on his potty training and is now excited for his outdoor adventures.<br/>• The Best of Both Worlds: When he isn't busy exploring, he is the king of downtime. He can usually be found curled up on the couch under a warm blanket, tucked in close for a nap with his foster sister or his favorite humans.<br/>• Love Language: Physical touch. Whether it's a long session of belly rubs, a quiet afternoon in your lap, or simply sitting next to you Stevie is at his happiest when he's sharing affection with his favorite people.<br/><br/>🏡 Stevie's Ideal Match<br/>Stevie has a heart full of love and a spirit that refuses to be broken. Because he spent so much time isolated in his past, he thrives on companionship. He would be happiest in a home with:<br/>• Frequent Company: He is looking for a "person" who is home often—ideal for a retiree or someone who works from home.<br/>• Patience & Grace: Stevie is celebrating his newfound independence! His adopters should understand that, given his history, he may occasionally have accidents as he continues to learn the ropes.<br/>• A Willing Teacher: Stevie is proof that you can teach a dog new tricks. He’s looking for someone excited to help him master the basics, like "sit" and "paw."<br/>• The Perfect Partner: Stevie would do wonderfully with a dog or cat sibling. Having a furry friend not only keeps the fun going and provides frequent cuddle sessions, but it also helps him "learn how to dog" by following their lead.<br/><br/>Stevie is a charismatic, resilient little man who has a bright future ahead of him. All he needs is you.<br/><br/>He is available for adoption through Familiar Hearts Animal Society and is being fostered in Philadelphia.<br/><br/>https://www.familiarhearts.org/adoption-process<br/>https://www.instagram.com/familiarheartsanimalsociety/<br/>https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100083768140453
