Here's what the humans have to say about me:
12/1/12 - I'VE BEEN ADOPTED!
Adoption Fee: $600
Fostered in Louisiana
Age: 8 months
Weight: 8.6 lbs.
7/31/12 - Mom and Dad, I know you must be worried sick wondering where I am. Don’t worry though, when ya’ll dropped me off a while back in that field, a nice lady that was jogging there, saw me being let out and picked me up and brought me home. I told her she didn’t have to, I would find some materials in the field to make a makeshift car and drive myself home, but she felt better with me accompanying her. Just as well, since she had more friends than I did to contact to see if we could find me a place to live. She contacted Yorkie Haven and I’m now in a foster home getting shots, being neutered, and having a microchipped implanted, etc. since you and mom never had time to do all that. I just wanted to send you a message saying that I’m good so that you can sleep better at night knowing that I’m safe. Foster mom and dad have promised to find me a home where I can accompany my next parents on their errands and not be dropped in a field, or I can just stay at home holding down the fort. I’ll be a loved part of my next family. Sorry you had to waste your gas and time bringing me somewhere to leave me. Sorry for whatever I did that made you not love or want me anymore.
Seems you really lost a good thing. I love all people, adult and children, get along great with dogs my size, love playing and chasing the 60 lb. dogs in my home and even love the cats here. I’m young and like a sponge right now, so learning all kinds of things - good and bad. Teehee! Everyone here and at the vet thinks I am just adorable and I cannot argue with them on that. Since I don’t have the cropped Yorkie tail, you can always tell when I’m happy because I am always wagging my tail. Other than learning about potty habits (which I am doing very well on) and just regular puppy antics, I am a really smart, sweet guy that will be a dream dog for the right family. Even though I’m young and boisterous, I calm down very well and love naps in the big people bed and to lay in foster mom or dad’s lap and watch a movie. Someone is going to be a very lucky family once I join them, my previous family were just too close minded to accept all this loving, and I’m glad.
