Shiro is about 7y Maltese retired breeder, who is looking for a home where she can just be a dog. She will need a fenced in backyard as she is not leash trained and needs a confident dog companion that can show her the ropes of the good life. She is 90% house broken and treat motivated. Once she bonds to you she wants to be with you all the time, so some one who works from home or is retired would be great. Young children scare her. She needs to be in a quiet calm household.  Experience with mill dogs a plus!
