Hi, I’m Henry, a playful, affectionate 6-year-old Maltese mix with a big personality. I love cuddles, belly rubs, kisses, walks, exploring, and staying close to my person. I’m crate trained, leash trained, and house trained.

I have a documented bite history and resource-guarding behavior, especially around things or people I value. I need an experienced adopter who understands canine behavior, respects my boundaries, recognizes my triggers, and is committed to safe, consistent management. I can get along with other dogs but may be particular about my personal space, especially when I’m with my person. I may do best as the center of attention in an adult-only home.

Ideal Home

• Experienced, responsible dog owner
• Someone comfortable managing resource guarding and a bite history
• A structured, predictable environment
• A securely fenced yard would be wonderful
• Someone willing to respect my boundaries and continue working on my behavior
• Lots of love, walks, belly rubs, and safe adventures

Ongoing Health

Henry’s adoption fee includes his neuter, microchip, and vaccines. He is also kept up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, flea and heartworm prevention, and microchipping before adoption.

Training & Support

Henry is crate trained, leash trained, and house trained. He is playful, affectionate, adventurous, loyal, and loving with people he trusts. Keeping him and everyone around him safe must come first.
