Adopt a Maltese in Colorado

Maltese are gentle, playful, and devoted toy dogs with silky white coats. They appear in rescue often from puppy mills or grooming-related surrenders. A rescued Maltese thrives in attentive, lap-dog-friendly homes.

Colorado's rescue dog community is active and well-supported, particularly around Denver, Boulder, Colorado Springs, and Fort Collins. Many Colorado rescues transport dogs from overcrowded shelters in nearby states. A rescued Colorado dog often comes from an active, well-funded organization.
