At 7 years old, I'm a petite Maltese weighing 7 pounds. Everyone at the rescue says I'm as cute and adorable as can be. I have to be honest, right now I have a big case of the jitters. My past experiences have left me feeling scared and unsure of the world around me, but I'm hopeful that there's a patient and caring soul out there willing to help me learn to trust again. While I may be timid around people, I find solace and comfort in the company of other dogs, so a home with furry siblings would be a dream come true. With the right person by my side, I know I can blossom into the confident and happy pup I was always meant to be. So, if you're someone with a heart as big as mine, and you're willing to take a chance on a sweet little soul like me, please consider opening your home and your heart to me! Let's make each other's dreams come true\u2014forever starts with you. \r\n\r\nMatilda is available for adoption but is also in need of a foster home.\r\nTo Adopt (or foster-to-adopt), please complete the adoption application here: https:\/\/anewchancear.org\/adopt\/adoption-application\r\nTo Foster, please complete the foster application here: https:\/\/anewchancear.org\/foster\/fostering-application\/\r\n\r\n\r\nThank you so much for your interest in adopting a dog from A New Chance Animal Rescue (https:\/\/anewchancear.org). We are a 501c3, tax deductible organization. ANCAR is a foster-based rescue, and we adopt within a 90 mile radius of Bedford Hills, NY. You will find the adoption application here: (https:\/\/anewchancear.org\/adopt\/adoption-application\/). All fields on the application must be completed. Please read about the adoption process (https:\/\/www.anewchancear.org\/adopt\/our-adoption-process\/) so you'll know what to expect when you submit.\r\n\r\nOur dogs are in foster care and we do NOT have a shelter or boarding facility. AN APPLICATION MUST BE COMPLETED IN FULL AND APPROVED BEFORE A DOG CAN BE MET. This is a firm policy. Our busy volunteers are not able to respond to questions about the dog or dog meeting requests in the absence of an application. We know these dogs very well because they are in foster care. Please read the profiles of the dog(s) you are interested in prior to submitting an application. If there are specific requirements stated (ie: Fenced Yard or Canine Friend Required) these are included because they are vital to the happiness, health, safety and adoption success of that dog. \r\n\r\nWe are only able to save as many dogs as we have foster homes (https:\/\/www.anewchancear.org\/foster\/faqs\/) and resources for. We provide medical care including vaccinations, testing, deworming, spaying\/neutering and microchipping before transporting our dogs. We provide all supplies, preventatives and any follow up vet care necessary while they are in foster care. These costs are high and the number of lives we can save is entirely dependent upon donations from people like you. We do not receive funding from private foundations or government sources. If you can find room in your heart to help us, with any amount, we are truly grateful (https:\/\/www.anewchancear.org\/help\/donate\/). We are a 501c3 organization, so all donations are tax-deductible. It is only through the kindness of supporters like you that we are 'changing lives...one tail at a time' by providing our dogs with 'A New Chance.'

She is almost 13 years old and blind in both eyes. She is very independent and does not hesitate to navigate her house without guidance. I rescued her when she was about 2 and she was severely abused. It took a long time and lots of patience to get her to trust me and so that we could have a loving relationship. She does not have most of her teeth since she has had lots of them extracted. She does well with other animals especially cats but other dogs tend to be a little rough with her and she does not like to play rough. I would not suggest having her around small children since she only weighs about 5 pounds and she is very fragile. She only likes to do her business outside in the grass but gets nervous about not being able to see outside. I tend to carry her from the door to the grassy area that she likes and she lets me know when she is ready to go back inside. She is a very sweet little lady and I am very sad to have to part ways with her.\n<\/p>\n","pdpRoute":"https:\/\/www.adoptapet.com\/pet\/41496616-brooklyn-new-york-maltese","newest":false,"longtimer":false,"isPureBred":true,"__class":"Domain\\Pet\\DTOs\\Resources\\PetCard\\PetCardResource"},{"petId":41488543,"photoUrl":"https:\/\/pet-uploads.adoptapet.com\/3\/f\/e\/1124383958.jpg","clanId":1,"adopted":false,"actQuickly":false,"name":"Lola KPA","breed":"Maltese","sex":"f","age":"2 yrs","specialNeeds":false,"bondedTo":"","address":{"line1":null,"line2":null,"city":"Buffalo","state":"NY","postalCode":"14201","countryCode":"USA","stateName":""},"color":null,"size":"Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less","details":["Good with kids","Good with dogs","Good with cats"],"description":"Lola is in Texas but once adopted, she can be transported.
