View Full Version : sad, must sell my babies.

I am at work, so I do not have much time to write. I am getting a divorce. This was very unexpected to me. My kids and I are going to rent a house. So we are unable to keep our Maltese. I have my 3 year old male and a male puppy born Christmas morning. My adult is beautiful. He is in full coat. I have bread him before. So he does have to wear a diaper. I am not sure if they can be cured by having him fixed or not. I am working on pee pad training my puppy. He is doing pretty good. I regret having to get rid of them. But my human kids have to come first. If anyone knows of someone who would like my babies, please let me know. I have not set a price. I am more worried about them going to a good home. I live in central Illinois.
that you are having to face these problems.;) I hope someone near you will be able to offer your babies a good home.

I wish I could help, I'd love to have another maltese but my Toby is not very accepting of other dogs..........but he loves his Kallie.
Do post pictures as it will help...........take care in finding them a good home and I know you will.
I'm so sorry for your situation, it must be breaking your heart to have to let go of your babies. :( :(

Is there anymore information that you can give us on your maltese and pictures please :) I read on another forum that someone is looking to adopt a small dog for a companion. She wants one that is younger than 5 yrs old, she has looked for a rescue, but can't find any in her area. She's in northern Illinois. Maybe this is a possibility?? Let me know...

Thanks everyone. My puppy weights almost 4 pounds. My 3 year old weights around 7 or 8 pounds. My husband helped me post pictures. He will not help now. But I should have pictures from when I posted about the puppies being born. My previous post should have something.

Have you considered a rescue group ? Isn't North Central Maltese close to Illinois ?
PolaBaby
04-18-2007, 06:34 AM
No homes yet. I really want them to go to good homes. I gave my adult female to a lady from my town. I didn't want her breed anymore. She had already had three litters. I felt that was enough. She is happy in her new home. That makes this transition a lot easier, knowing she went to a good home.

I am patient. They can always stay with my mom until I found them a home. She can not keep them permanently because she has two adult dogs of her own. I do not think she could handle anymore. I will try to take a picture of the puppy tonight.
I was just reading your e-mail. I am sorry hear your news. I guess that is why I am still single and never married. I have a friend that lives in Crossville, Tn and she wants a dog so bad and cannot afford to buy one for a while. She thinks my maltese is just so darn cute. I hate that Illinoise is so far away. Have you found anybody yet to take him??
You are in my prayers!! Keep us posted.

What gender is the baby? I've been thinking about getting a baby maltese. I see it is a boy. If I were closer.

I am very interested in your puppy .. My Rocky needs a buddy!!

thank you!

No home yet. I took the price out of the add in the paper. All that did is get people thinking they can get them for free. They hang up as soon as I say $400. It is not the money I am after. But I worry if a person can not afford to pay for the dog then how can they afford to pay vet bills and food. Maybe I am thinking wrong. I just want my boys to go to great homes that can care for them.

If people are hanging up over $400.........it is a good thing as they aren't looking for a pet but a steal deal!!!! If they can't afford the $400, they can't afford the upkeep either. Hang in there and don't let yourself get desparate..............since they aren't neutered, my concern would be for someone to take them and breed them and make money. It's so hard and you really don't need this right now. There are a few here on MT that have requested pictures of them both. If you want I can PM you my email and you can send me the pics and I will be glad to post them for you!!!! Just let me know and it is certainly no problem to do that for you and it may help you find a good home for the kids..............the furkids!!! :D

Hi, thanks for posting pics of the kids! I love your older one, he is beautiful! But there is something I am confused about.:confused: :confused:
You said the older boy is 3 years old but the pictures say they were taken in January, 2002. Is he 3 or 5 years old and are these not current pictures of the older one?? Our Kallie is almost 5.........might make a good match. And is he neutered???? THANKS, hope you weren't offended by my questions.

On some camara's the date defaults to an older date when you change the battery. This happens to my daughters it defaults to 2004. (Maybe the date the camara was manufactured?)

Oh good grief, thanks for the post!!! I had no idea camera's did that. I have two cameras...one is a digital and the other is an SLR but neither of them do the date thingie so I had no idea. Thanks for clearing that up for me!

Oops, I didn't realize the date thing either. Pola is 3 yrs old. I took the pictures Saturday. It was a rough weekend. Pola is sold. He is going to a great home about an hour away from me. He will have other dogs and kids to play with. He will be kept in the house!!! Not a Kennel. This is a prayer come true. She is picking him up tonight. That will be really tough. But I know he is going to a great home. I still have my baby. He is going to be lonely without his daddy. But I am sure he will find a home soon.

I know you are going thru a tough time right now but it will get better and you will get thru this. About the Billy Bob are you looking for a local home for him?

I did like the older boy, and showed the hubby and he liked him too..........but we just can't part with our TOBY and he is not dog friendly except with Kallie, who he adores!!! And being it was a boy, I am sure Toby would rear his ugly side. But she found him a great home so that makes me just as happy!!!

Thanks everyone so much. All my babies have new homes now. Pola went to his new home last night. She is a very nice lady. He will have a great home. It was really hard. These babies become like our children to us. It felt like part of my stomach was ripped out. But I know he will be happy. That is the most important. Billy Bob is going to have a great home too. Plus it gives me a reason to come back to Maltese talk, even though I no longer have furbabies, so I can watch him grow!!!
