Parent dogs
Barbie, mom
Maltese
About Barbie
Oh my goodness, just like her name, Barbie truly is the most gorgeous dog in my eyes! She has this adorable little hippty hop when she walks, and she carries herself with such sleek style. It’s so cute how she sits with one paw crossed over the other—it’s like she’s posing! She really does have a bit of a human personality. She isn’t a fan of walks unless she gets to roam free without a leash, and that’s just how she likes it!
Tokyo, mom
Maltese
About Tokyo
Tokyo is such an attentive and sweet dog! She's super playful and loves to snuggle up in her bed. Whenever she sees me, she gets so excited and loves to zoom around!
Rocky, dad
Maltese
About Rocky
Rocky is just the sweetest! He absolutely adores going for walks and, best of all, he thinks I'm his favorite person—how cute is that? He has a bit of a picky side, but it just makes him even more lovable. You’ll often find him perched up high, striking a pose like the little king he is, looking down at all the other animals! He's super smart, gentle, and yes, a little stubborn at times, but that just adds to his charm. Plus, he’s CKC registered!
Meera, mom
Maltese
About Meera
Meet Meera, my lovable cuddle bug! She’s as gentle as they come and has a playful spirit, especially when it comes to her soft toys. Being a CKC-registered pup, she’s not only adorable but also super smart! She’s trained to do her business both outdoors and indoors, making her quite the clever companion. With her strong senses and independent nature, Meera is sure to bring joy and warmth to our home!
