Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, it's me, Buttercup. I am 10 years old and weigh 10 pounds. A perfect 10. I am being fostered in Ft. Myers, FL. Buttercup wants you to know that her adoption fee is $225 and includes all vetting (neuter, dental cleaning, immunizations, microchip and chip registration). A Vet reference, personal references, and home visit are required for adoption. You may apply to adopt me, sweet Buttercup, by going to our website at www.unitedyorkierescue.org and completing the adoption application for me located on our home page.
My foster mommy says I am a love bug. All she has to do is call my name and hold her arms out and I come running to her ready to be held. My foster mommy says I am a very good girl. I like short walks as long as the weather is not too hot. I also enjoy having the breeze blow in my face while riding in the puppy stroller.
I just had surgery for bladder stones so I will always have to be on a special diet. But my foster mom says it costs about the same as any good dog food. I would be happy with or without other dogs in the house. My foster mommy is working with me on meet and greet with other dogs and humans while walking. She says my manners are improving. I do mostly potty outside but have a few accidents while I am recovering from my surgery. Once I am healed my foster mommy thinks I will be really house trained.
You may think a 10 year old yorkie is old, but that's not me. I am so young at heart. If you are looking for a sweet pup to cuddle with and love, that's me. I am looking forward to my furever family, could you be the one for me?
