Adoption Fee : $700 George is a sweet young Maltese mix who has found himself at the shelter through no fault of his own. Life has clearly thrown him a few curveballs, and as a result, George is a timid little guy who will need a patient and understanding home to help him settle into a new routine. Loud noises and sudden movements can frighten George, so we’re looking for a calm, child-free home or one without boisterous young children. He tolerates the company of other dogs, but it's clear George hasn’t had much socialisation in his past—he often becomes even more reserved around them. A gentle, low-key environment will give him the best chance to blossom. Due to the high volume of interest we expect for George, please note that only shortlisted applicants will be contacted for a meet and greet. If you haven’t heard from us, unfortunately, you have not been selected on this occasion. George may be shy, but with the right home, he has so much love to give.
