Foster parents have the first option to adopt.
Breed: Yorkshire Terrier.
Weight: 6 lbs

Personality: Tweety is what we call a "best friend dog," meaning she is loyal to her one human, loves to be in their company, and will follow her human from room to room. Tweety is friendly to everyone and will give lots of soft kisses. Tweety is a quiet and low energy dog. She is the happiest cuddling and napping.
Coat: Silky, grooming required, no shedding
Training: House manners and socialization, learned "sit" in one day
Potty trained: In progress (as of 7/22)
Health: Healthy; mild luxating patella and does not need any medical intervention, only monitoring
History: Rescued from a high-kill LA animal shelter
Fostered in: Orange, CA
Type of home: Any. However, due to her small size, she is too fragile for homes with small children.
Crate trained: No
Good with Dogs: Yes
Good with Kids: Yes
Good with Cats: Unknown
Adoption fee (non-refundable): $300
All dogs are fully vetted, tested for heartworm, microchipped, and up to date with vaccinations.
Our adoption process looks like this:
1. Adoption application review by WHDR board
2. Adoption application approval
3. Meet and greet
4. Home safety check
5. Final approval and adoption finalized
Our volunteers, donors and adopters mean the world to us! Without you, we couldn't do what we do - saving the lives of abused, neglected and abandoned dogs and providing them with a loving forever home.
