Joey ~ Maltese (on trial 18/12/2017)

Meet Joey a 6 year old purebred Maltese. Joey is a very cuddly little dog who loves nothing better than to sit on the lounge and snuggle and be by your side. He loves people but he must be an only dog, he just doesn't see eye to eye with other dogs. Joey hasn't been around young children so older kids would be best also.

Joey would be great with an older person or someone who is home most of the time that could give him lots of attention who wants a snuggly companion dog. He is extremely happy inside but will also stay in a kennel outside during day, preferably only for short periods as he can suffer from separation anxiety. Joey would love a home with someone who can spend a lot of time with him. He is best left outside in a kennel rather than inside the house alone when no one can be there with him.

Joey sleeps on his bed but loves to be in your bed too, just so long as he knows you are close by. He is house trained. Joey is a very clever little dog and quite obedient and for someone looking for an only dog he'd be perfect. He loves to go for walks but it would need to be somewhere quiet and peaceful with no other dogs that could run up to him off leash. Joey will make someone a beautiful little companion pet.
