Quinn is a 10-pound Maltese mix who has had a difficult start but is learning to trust familiar people. He approaches favorite volunteers, enjoys attention and petting, and likes being carried. With unfamiliar people, he may snap when approached or handled, so he needs a patient adopter who will respect his boundaries and allow trust to develop at his own pace.

Ideal Home

Quinn needs someone willing to provide extra understanding, time, and care. He may not be suitable for children under 8.

Ongoing Health

Quinn requires regular grooming to maintain his health and comfort and may need sedation during grooming. Adopters should be prepared for the additional care and expense involved.

Application Details

• Quinn is available to meet by appointment only.
• To get started, contact Oakland Animal Services through Wags and submit an adoption questionnaire.

Transportation

No transportation options are specified.
