Special Needs: Malloy has already seen the vet twice and recently had an MRI, which has created a significant financial burden. I am hoping to raise funds to pay off Malloy’s medical bills and support his ongoing care, as well as to help find him the loving forever home he deserves. Any support—whether through a donation or by sharing his story—means the world to both of us. Thank you for helping Malloy get the second chance he so deeply deserves. Please check out his gofund.me page to make a donation - every bit helps! : https://gofund.me/b0ed0a4d8

Description

Meet Malloy!
He is a very friendly, sweet and chill 5 year-old American Staffordshire Terrier who was found as an unneutered stray in Ken Malloy Harbor Regional Park in October 2025 (thus the name “Malloy”). He is now neutered and in foster care.

He quickly became a volunteer favorite at Harbor Animal Care Shelter because of his sweet and easy-going nature. He developed ataxia-like symptoms (balance issues) in the beginning of December and was given a euthanasia date of January 12th, 2026 but was saved by his foster mom who is now taking care of this  sweet boy.

Malloy has already seen the vet twice and recently had an MRI. Despite his health issues, Malloy is the perfect dog – he is great with other dogs and absolutely loves and adores people! He loves going on walks, getting pets from everyone he meets, and is a joy to have around. He is potty trained, crate trained, and even chooses to sleep in his crate with the door open! Malloy loves car rides, and adventures with his people, has no separation anxiety, and walks with him are an absolute breeze!

He is well – mannered and relaxed; if not for his medical issues, he would be the easiest, happiest companion. Currently, Malloy is doing quite well,  and with routine care, he enjoys a great quality of life – and nothing stops him from being the loving, easy companion he is.

Malloy needs help with his vetting bills, including MRI, and ongoing care. Even if you can’t adopt or foster this sweet boy, please help support him on  https://gofund.me/b0ed0a4d8 .

Thank you for considering Malloy!
