Trey's adoption donation is $250 and he is being fostered in Dayton, Ohio.  He has been neutered, microchipped, received his rabies, distemper/parvo, and bordetella vaccines, tested negative for heartworms and started on prevention, as well as flea prevention.  

Trey is an adorable 9 year old, 8 pound Maltese boy who was surrendered by his owner to a kill shelter when they felt they no longer had time for him.  He gets along with other dogs, however he's really not interested in playing with them or interacting much.  Even when provoked by the alpha male in his foster home, he just got up and walked away rather than confront.  He just likes to peacefully coexist!  He does NOT need another companion dog in the home, and he does NOT need a fenced yard to be happy.

However independent Trey is around other dogs, he LOVES people (and may even slightly seem to prefer men to women).  He is happiest when he is around you, so having someone who is home often would be best to keep this little boy from feeling down.  
He loves to lie on top of the sofa while you're watching TV or doing work and just observe.  He also enjoys sitting in your lap or near you if you'll let him.  He loves to be held and cuddled!

He is potty-trained and also crate-trained at night, though he has gotten quite comfortable politely sleeping in the big bed at night with his foster mom and dad!

He is not a yippy boy, but he has the classic Maltese bark when he feels he needs to alert you to an issue.  For this reason, he would not do well in an apartment or condo.  He is a great communicator, letting you know when he needs to go outside to potty or when he's hungry.   He also rides well in the car and loves to go for leash-walks around the neighborhood.  He does very well when being gently petted by supervised children too.

Good with Dogs, Good with Kids

PLEASE NOTE:   If you are viewing this biography on a website other than the Ohio Fuzzy Pawz website like Petfinder, Adopt-a-Pet, or another search engine (the OFP website is www.ohiofuzzypawz.com), not all information transfers to partner websites in some instances.  If you go to the  individual webpage of our dogs , you will be able to get more information each dog.

Visual breed identification in dogs can be unreliable so, in many cases, we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix.  We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label.

Our Adoption Process

The adoption process has several steps involved. Please review prior to submitting an application. Our adoption process is detailed here:  http://www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/info/adoption

Our volunteers work very diligently to process each application and we try to ensure that we are making the best match possible for each dog.  We do not schedule meetings with dogs until an application has been approved.  It can take up to a few weeks to process an application or as little time as a few days, from the time you submit an application, please be prepared to adopt as we cannot hold dogs.

Special Requirements

Some dogs may have special requirements (for example, medications, a fence) -- if you apply for a dog, please be sure to read over the biography completely to see if there are any special needs and if you're home would be suitable.  If we indicate on the dog's biography that a fence is required, this means your home must have a physical fence.  Other dogs may require a "strong vet reference" which indicates that we are looking for a home that has a documented history of veterinary care with previous pets. 

The first step in our process is to submit an online adoption application at www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/forms.  The application MUST include the personal references and veterinary, grooming, and landlord references (if applicable) and their respective contact information.  If you do not include the references and the contact information, your application will be delayed as it CANNOT be processed.  Once the references have been successfully completed, a home visit is then scheduled when a rescue representative can meet all members of the family or residents of the home.  No application is approved prior to the home visit being done.   At that point, the Directors will discuss any and all applications on a foster dog and make a selection--in many cases, there are multiple applications for each dog, so please be understanding that our only priority is the successful placement of each of our foster dogs.

Out of State Adoptions

We do adopt out of state to outstanding applicants, however, our process requires a home visit, so out of state adoptions can take longer.  We do not ship our dogs, adopters should be prepared to pick up the dog in Central Ohio.
