Max - West Highland White Terrier Mix For Adoption Seattle WA

Meet Max, Yorkshire Terrier Maltese Mix Dog For Adoption in Port Orchard WA

Have you been looking for a Yorkie for adoption in Seattle? A pre-loved Maltese dog to adopt in Washington? They don’t come any cuter than Max! This impossibly adorable little pooch is thought to be a mix of Maltese and Terrier – most likely Yorkshire Terrier (Yorkie) or West Highland White Terrier (Westie). This mix is often referred to as “Morkie“. While his breed is not 100% certain, the fact that he is cuter than a butterfly’s elbow is a certainty.

Max is just 18 months old. He weighs just 10 pounds, and is a joyful, playful and incredibly affectionate bundle of love and licks.

Max is nearly perfect. He is sweet and loving, playful and fun. He is well behaved and gets along with respectful children and other dogs. He has not been around cats, but Terriers tend to be “cat chasers”, so it would depend on the personality of the cat.

Max’s owners are a retired couple who adopted him from a “kill shelter” in California. They love him to bits, and want the very best for him.

Max has a little more energy than they had anticipated, and he has a fear of his harness and leash – he is not able to be walked at this point and will need lots of positive reinforcement to get used to walking on a leash. Very occasionally he has piddle accidents, which happen when he is anxious. Max is a bit of a diamond in the ruff, but he has lots of potential, and his extreme level of cuteness more than makes up for these small issues.

Max will thrive in the right environment. He needs a family who can give him tons of attention, playtime and positive reinforcement. In return, he offers unlimited love, joy, laughter and companionship.

If you have been looking for a tiny dog with a big personality, put in a request to meet Max today. He can’t wait to cuddle and play his way into your heart.

Adopt Max Today! There is a $150 adoption fee. Supplies and veterinary records will be included.

Max’s Personality

His sweet disposition.
He loves to play with balls, sqeak toys, toilet paper tubes,
He will lay his head down on my chest and snuggle in for a hug.
When he gets excited he wil prance down the hallway and takes a few extra leaps in the air (like he’s kicking his heals up)
When no one will play with his he flings the ball around and chases after it.
He’s nuts for the laser light.

Max’s Current Home Environment

We live in a single family home with a fenced back yard. There’s another dog. They get along well together.

Max’s Current Family:

My husband and I are retired. We have a daughter and grandson who stop in several times a week. We have a pretty quiet house for the most part.

Max’s Favorite Toys, Foods, Activities?

Balls, squeak toys, anything that you can throw for him to retrieve. He loves chasing a laser light.

Cute Max Story:

As I get going in my daily tasks I will frequently turn to walk out of a room only to discover a ball laying on the floor in the doorway of whatever room I’m in. As I step through the door I will immediately see Max waiting patiently for me to kick it down the hall…butt in the air, perfectly poised for the anticipated chase!

Why is Max Being Rehomed?

Max has too much energy for my husband and I at this point in our lives. He was a rescue from a high-kill shelter in California. He needs remedial training to walk on/tolerate a leash. We didn’t know that we needed to put a leash on him frequently after we adopted him last year. Also when he’s afraid he piddles.

Max’s Perfect Adoptive Home Will Be:

Max would do great with a family with kids. He loves to play, snuggle. He craves attention and deserves an active household.

Additional Comments:

This little dog is super sweet. He so deserves a good home.
