Hero
Hero is a fluffy apricot bundle of joy who's convinced every toy in the world exists solely for his entertainment! This F1 Maltipoo boy bounces through life with infectious enthusiasm, already showing off his sunny personality as he chases after anything that rolls or bounces. His soft apricot coat and tiny frame make him the perfect size for cuddles on the couch after his energetic play sessions. He would love nothing more than to scamper across your living room with his ears flopping, bringing back his favorite toy for just one more round. Hero comes with a microchip and his dew claws removed. Let this little charmer patter his way into your heart and become your new best friend!
***Dogs may change color naturally as they mature due to many factors such as genetics, hair type, losing puppy fur and changing to the adult coat, pigmentation, hormonal changes, seasonal changes, shaving, etc. Color changes are expected and can occur quickly and at any time. We cannot guarantee a dog's permanent coat color for these reasons.
