Owner Info: Mooshie is
an adorable Maltese who was rescued from a kill shelter three years ago after
being attacked by a bigger dog. He has never really gotten along with the other
rescue dog in the house and his owners recently had a baby which has caused a
lot of stress for Mooshie. His owners have tried a dog trainer to make him less
nervous around the baby but to no avail. They have already reached out to
family and friends and small dog rescues but “It
seems no one has a foster home available for our dog.” Mooshie is an
indoor dog confined to one area of the house. He is housebroken and
leash-trained. He knows commands, sit, stay, and careful (slow down so as not
to bump into something). Mooshie is outgoing but can also be
nervous. Mooshie lives in a house with three cats, a fox terrier and a collie
mix. Mooshie can be possessive of food and treats. His owner says,
“don't go near him when he's eating a treat or
chewing his rawhide. He's snapped at our collie (often) and will snap at
but not break skin on someone that's new that tries to pet him too quickly, he
needs people to take it slow.” Mooshie’s owners feel he would do
best in a quiet home with no children under 12 and only cats or other small
dogs. They want us to know he gets around great for being blind and will adjust
well to new surroundings!
