Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie (Medium Coat)
Description:
Thank you for stopping by to see me! Please fill out an application to set up a private meeting. Want to meet me? Come to the Underdog Headquarters (3345 Dakota Ave, St. Louis Park, 55416) for an Adoption Event on Sunday, November 17th from 10:30-11:30 am . Please email [email protected] for questions regarding the dogs. Hi, I’m Debbie! I’m a six-year-old Yorkie weighing in at a petite 9 pounds, but don’t let my size fool you—I’ve got a lot of love to give! I’m a sweet and lovable girl who just wants to be close to my people. At home, I’ll follow you around with my tail wagging, always ready for some quality cuddle time on the couch. I’m not super active, but I do enjoy a good run in the backyard every now and then. I like to meet new people and dogs of all ages and sizes. My people said I am a very social girl just waiting for new people to charm. I’m almost potty trained—just need a consistent schedule to keep me on track! At night, I sleep peacefully in my crate, though I’d much rather be with everyone during the day. Sometimes I will bark bark – hee hee! We are working on leash training, but I need more practice in my forever home so a fence is required in my forever home. I’m happiest when I have other little dogs around to keep me company and maybe even play with. I do require another dog in my forever home to show me the ropes and help me learn to trust people. I’m still figuring out the whole playtime thing, but I’ve started to run around and be more playful since I’ve settled in here. I am a very smart girl and have recently figured out how to go up and down stairs! I’m also a good eater and love soft treats. I’m mostly quiet, only barking when the other dogs do, and I love my naps as much as I love my cuddle time. I’m just a sweet, easy-going girl looking for a home where I can be close to my people and maybe have a few doggie pals to hang out with. If you’re looking for a loving, gentle companion, I might just be your perfect match! *Please note that some of our dogs are obtained from shelters, surrendered to our care, or released from breeders. Each animal's bio is based on our experience of the animal within our care, an educated guess based on physical characteristics, temperament and information shared. Each dog receives basic grooming when coming into rescue, but for some dogs they have not received grooming attention until recently and grooming may be required shortly after adoption. This will be at the adopter’s expense, so we encourage you to research the breed and be prepared for grooming expenses. Underdog cannot guarantee hypoallergenic or non-shedding qualities of any dogs in our rescue. Some of the animals come from situations where they are lacking experience in a home and confidence in humans. In turn, they require another companion dog and/or a fenced in yard in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit. Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home. ***Be sure to check your spam/junk folder as sometimes our emails end up there*** If you have other questions about me you can email Underdog Rescue at <[email protected]> ADOPTION EVENTS: Adoption events are updated at the top of each dogs animals' as their foster home signs up. Check back for updates on which events they will be attending. If an event is not listed within their bio above, the animal is not planning to attend. Please understand that all of our pets are in volunteer foster homes and sometimes "life" happens and the foster family cannot make it to their scheduled adoption event. If you are traveling from a far distance to meet a specific animal, please understand we cannot guarantee event attendance. We recommend filling out an application and we will set up a private appointment. Private appointments are only scheduled after an application is submitted and approved. ADOPTION PROCEDURE: The first step in our process is to complete an online adoption application on our website: http://www.underdogrescuemn.com/adoptionprocess/ Note: In most circumstances Underdog Rescue will only adopt within 60 miles of Minneapolis, MN. All of our foster animals can be seen by appointment with an approved adoption application. Contact us at http://www.underdogrescuemn.com/contact-us/ if you have further questions. FOSTER CARE: All of our animals are fostered in individual homes or doggie daycare facilities. While they are in our care, they are part of our families and given lots of love. We work on training, crate-training and socialization prior to adoption, but each bio is written by the foster as they see them, in their home. Each animal's behavior is evaluated and we have a sense of its temperament and personality, but it cannot be guaranteed. We look for adopters who will give each animal the wonderful life and permanent home that he or she deserves in time and with patience. If you have an interest and ability to be a foster home, please visit our website www.underdogrescuemn.com/foster-applications and fill out a foster application. NUTRITION: Nutrition is vital to the rehabilitation and life-long health of our pets. All of our foster animals are fed a premium diet such as NutriSource, Canidae, Orijen, Nature's Variety, Fromm, Pure Vita, Stella and Chewy's, Primal, or balanced raw diet. All adopters are required to continue providing premium diets for the life of the animal. YOU CAN HELP: Not able to foster or adopt right now? Please consider sponsoring an Underdog.
