PP — Maltese

PP is my sweetest angel—truly the being I love most on this planet.🥹 He’s co-parented by me and a friend. For a long time he lived with me as the resident “only child,” and my days revolved around his routines and little joys.

He originally arrived with deep anxiety from past trauma—trembling nonstop, refusing to step on hard floors, and terrified of walking anywhere except grass. With patient desensitization and tiny wins every day (treat trails, brief hallway visits, quiet sit-and-see sessions), PP learned hardwood, sidewalks, elevators, and new people. Today he’s a sweet, confident pup who enjoys new environments and is friendly with both humans and dogs!!

Last month he moved to New York with my friend. I miss him every day🥲, and I’m grateful he helped shape the calm, gentle way I care for every animal who stays with me.
