If you are looking to start the New Year with a new family pet then Draco, a 5-year-old Maltese breed, is currently available for adoption through Southern Comfort Maltese Rescue in Largo, Florida. This small, white male dog in the Pinellas County area weighs just 7 pounds and is looking for a loving home.
On his adoption page at Petfinder, Draco is described as affectionate and enjoys cuddling. He’s fond of being picked up and cradled. The rescue reports that he gets along with other dogs and cats, and enjoys walks and car rides.
Potential adopters should be aware that Draco has some behavioral challenges. He can be aggressive towards strangers and protective of his space. The rescue advises that he needs a patient home willing to work with him on these issues. Due to these concerns, adopters will be asked to sign an additional agreement.
The foster staff shared that Draco is house-trained, using a belly band indoors and going outside for bathroom needs. He is up-to-date on vaccinations and has been neutered.
