My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

11/5/19 - I'VE BEEN ADOPTED!
Adoption Fee: $250
Fostered in Baton Rouge, Louisiana
Age: 8 years
Weight: 7 lbs.

4/28/19 - Don't get me wrong, I love my foster home, but I'm a little offended that I haven't been adopted yet. I see all these dogs come into the program and get adopted before me. Is it because I'm older? Is it because my tongue sticks out? Is it because my legs look like a deer's legs? Is it because I'm clingy? Is it because I need someone home with me more? Well, I can't change these things and I don't want to. You have to love me for me. That's what foster mom says. I'm a really awesome guy.

10/31/18 - Happy Halloween! Tiny here, just wanted you to know that I am still in search of my forever home. I'm a great young man that loves his people and needs someone that is home alot. We can take naps, watch tv, go for walks, etc. I love giving kisses, being held, being talked to, etc. You get the picture, I'm needy, lol.

4/25/18 - Tiny is doing great and you would not know that he is 8 years old. He is a happy, clingy boy that loves being around his people and loves to be held. Even tries to kiss and lick his people with that cute tongue that won't go back in. lol He uses steps to get in the bed, and has to sleep under the covers right by you. He is good with a bath, trim and blow-dry and is a hearty eater. He likes to watch and stalk the birds. but definitely wants you outside with him at all times. He is an incredible little guy.

4/25/17 - Tiny’s previous owner could not take care of him any longer, so her daughter brought him to the nearest vet to see if they could help. A foster for Yorkie Haven Rescue used that vet’s office, so they gave her a call and we took Tiny in.

Tiny’s teeth were never taken care of, so the ones he had left had to be extracted and he is now a toothless wonder with an adorable tongue that hangs out the side of his mouth. He still eats like a champ and we mix soft food with hard and add some water for flavor.

He is a social butterfly and LOVES ALL PEOPLE. He follows his foster mom everywhere. When she can’t find him, he’ll be at the front door laying in one of the dog beds looking out and getting his vitamin D. Tiny would love nothing more than to be held and carried around. He will bark if he hears something that needs your attention, but is not obsessive about it. He does fine in a home with other dogs co-existing and would do ok with cats too. He has very springy legs and can jump like a deer. Actually, he looks like a little deer with his long spindly legs.

Tiny sleeps under the covers all night. He is quite the little gentlemen and would be a great baby for any family. He absolutely thinks his glass is ½ full and we know there is someone out there for Tiny. Is that you?
