Housetrained
Sweet
Loving
Playful
And under 9 pounds.
If you have anything like that PLEASE respond. Thank you for your time and consideration.Does anyone have a Pomeranian or Maltese for sale/adoption in Texas?
Look on www.petfinder.com . There you will find just about any breed you could consider and they are in need of rescue.
For some reason most people think rescue dogs have problems; this is not the case. I volunteer with a rescue group in Michigan and we some of our dogs due to death of the owner or they move into a apartment and can't have pets etc. We also get dogs from puppy mills when they're no longer able to produce puppies.
Believe me with what we see it's hearbreaking to think of people breeding more dogs when there are so many that need homes.Does anyone have a Pomeranian or Maltese for sale/adoption in Texas?
check your local newspapers, petfinder.com
Don't expect to find one of those qualities cheap!
Good luck - save up and get a maltese from a breeder - or adopt. They are the best dogs in the world - I have two and they are worth every penny. Also, check Craig's List - I bought my second one from someone who could no longer take care of him.
I don't have one I'm looking for a small dog myself but i can tell you to go to www.pupmatch.com they have alot of dogs in texas.
I don't even Know what that is.
Try the pound
no
i know someone in killeen tx email me or cheack puppyfind.com
People are rarely ';giving away'; dogs with all of the qualities you listed - you'll usually be adopting someone else's problem dog! Toy dogs are notoriously hard to housebreak.
Find a good breeder by going to www.akc.org or talking to people at dog shows. You can also find info about the breed clubs on the akc site - they probably have a rescue group where you can get an older dog for less money. The best breeders will be members of their breed club, promoting healthy dogs with great temperaments. They should ask you a bunch of questions to make sure their puppy will be getting a good home. If all a ';breeder'; seems to care about is whether your check will clear, you can be sure he won't care a week later when the pup is dying from distemper or parvo and you want your money back.
Whatever you do, DON'T go to a pet shop or buy one sight-unseen off the Internet!!!! You'll pay top dollar for what is usually a poor quality puppy mill dog. And you'll be supporting one of the cruelest industries in the country. The breeding animals are often kept in deplorable conditions - spending their entire lives in small wire-bottomed cages. They probably haven't been vaccinated against contagious diseases or tested for any health or temperament problems or genetic diseases - that costs money and cuts into their profits. A female is often bred every time she comes into heat. When her poor little body can't take it any more, she is often clubbed in the head and tossed into a dumpster or an open ditch. Most puppy mills ship their pups to pet stores at wholesale prices and many pups die before they even get there.
These so-called ';breeders'; have now figured out that they can use the internet to ship a dog directly to the customer and thus make more money by cutting out the middleman. If you buy a dog from out of state, good luck getting your money back if there's something wrong with the pup. These people count on you becoming instantly attached to the poor little guy and being willing to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars at the vet to treat whatever is wrong with him.
People selling dogs at flea markets are not usually quality breeders - they are often reps for puppy mills. I wouldn't get any dog at a flea market!
Try www.petfinder.org or your local shelter/rescue groups!!!
Try going to a Petland. There are two Petlands in San Antonio.
Try Petland I saw some Tuesday
Go to the locale shelters and get a dog from there and give it a good happy home. There are too dogs and cats that desperately need homes in the shelters and on the streets. There are big ones and little ones, save one of their lives instead of spending a lot of money on a dog.
