Meet Icy!

Icy may look like a tiny, fluffy dream dog, but he’s more than just a cute face—he’s a work in progress looking for someone who truly understands him.

At 4 years old and 14 lbs, this Maltese mix loves to sleep next to you in the weirdest positions and finds comfort in his crate when the world feels overwhelming. He’s still learning that being alone is okay, so he’ll need someone patient and willing to help him work through his separation anxiety. The good news? His crate is his safe space, and with the right approach, it can be a great tool in helping him feel more secure.

Icy takes time to warm up to new people, and yes—he may still have occasional accidents as he settles in. But once he trusts you, you’ll see the sweet, sensitive soul underneath. He’s currently fostered with other dogs, and while he doesn’t engage much, he seems to find comfort in their presence.

If you’re looking for an easy, insta-perfect lap dog, Icy isn’t your guy. But if you’re willing to give him the time, patience, and training he needs, you’ll earn the love of a truly special pup who just wants to feel safe.

Could you be the one to show Icy that the world isn’t so scary?
