A little about them

Betty Sue is a happy, playful Maltese puppy with a big personality. She is smart, curious, confident, affectionate, and loves toys, puppy games, cuddling, and being included with her people. She enjoys energetic play with other dogs and would likely enjoy a young, playful canine companion.

Ideal Home

Betty Sue needs a home in the immediate Austin area. Because of her small size, she is not suitable for homes with children under 5. She would thrive with continued socialization, consistency, and lots of love.

Ongoing Health

Betty Sue is up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative, and on heartworm prevention. She is microchipped and will be spayed at the appropriate age before adoption is finalized.

Training & Support

Betty Sue is learning good house manners and uses a doggie door independently most of the time, though she will need continued guidance as she grows. She sleeps well in her crate when she can remain near her people. She enjoys cuddling, puppy kisses, and attention.
