MEET BRUNO – A BUBBLY LITTLE MALTESE LOOKING FOR A LOVING NEW HOME!
Meet Bruno, a delightful 5-year-old male Maltese from Johannesburg, Gauteng, who is looking for a loving new family.
Weighing just 3 kg, Bruno may be tiny, but his owner describes him as a bubbly, friendly and sociable little boy with a sweet and lovable personality.
Bruno reportedly gets along exceptionally well with children and other dogs, making him a lovely potential companion for a family or someone who already has a friendly dog.
Unfortunately, a change in his owner’s living circumstances means Bruno urgently needs a new home. We would love to find this little boy a safe, caring and permanent home where he can enjoy the companionship he deserves.

❤️ A LITTLE MORE ABOUT BRUNO
Bruno is described as a cheerful, friendly little Maltese who enjoys social interaction.
His owner describes him as sweet, sociable and lovable, with a bubbly personality that makes him a delightful little companion.
One of Bruno’s lovely qualities is his reported ability to get along well with both children and other dogs.
For a family hoping to welcome a small, friendly dog into their home, Bruno may be a wonderful match.
At just 3 kg, he is a very small dog, so gentle handling and appropriate supervision around young children will be important.
Although Bruno is reportedly excellent with other dogs, introductions to any existing pets should always be gradual and carefully supervised.
🏡 BRUNO’S IDEAL HOME
We are looking for a loving, responsible family or individual who can offer Bruno a safe and permanent home.
His ideal home would offer:
- A loving environment where he is treated as a valued family member.
- Regular companionship, affection and attention.
- A secure home and garden suitable for a very small dog.
- Gentle handling and appropriate supervision around younger children.
- A family willing to maintain his grooming and veterinary care.
- Careful introductions if there are already other friendly dogs in the household.
- A lifelong commitment to his happiness and wellbeing.
IMPORTANT: Bruno needs a cat-free home, as his owner reports that he is not good with cats.
Bruno may be suitable for a home with children or other dogs, provided everyone is introduced appropriately and the household is a good match for his needs.
We would particularly love to see him settled with people who enjoy the companionship of a small, affectionate dog.
❤️ WHY DOES BRUNO NEED A NEW HOME?
Bruno’s owner has experienced a change in living circumstances and is moving to a residence where dogs are unfortunately not permitted.
Frequent travelling also makes it difficult to provide Bruno with the stable home environment he needs.
For these reasons, his owner has made the difficult decision to seek assistance in finding him a suitable new family.
Bruno’s rehoming is very urgent. We are hoping to find a responsible and loving home as soon as possible, without compromising on finding the right match.
Bruno is currently with his owner while Little Doggy Rescue assists with his home-to-home rehoming.

🐾 ABOUT THE MALTESE BREED
Maltese dogs are small companion dogs, generally known for their affectionate nature and close relationships with their families.
Despite their small size, they still need daily activity, social interaction, gentle training and regular grooming to keep their coats comfortable and healthy.
Every Maltese has an individual personality, and Bruno’s own friendly, bubbly nature is what makes his story special.
