My story

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

This is Dexter, he is a 3 year old male Yorkie - Bischon Frise mix, he is probably about 10 lbs. We took him in as a foster dog when he was 6 months and he was so sweet we just kept him. He is healthy and has never had medical problems.

He needs a good home with a family to care for him forever. I have never rehomed a pet (my last dog was 12 when he passed) and this hurts and it's hard to trust that someone will care for him like we do, but I know he needs better as I have too much on my plate with health issues.

Dexter needs someone who has more time and patience. He is very loving, so affectionate and is amazing with everyone, including kids. He is never aggressive with people or kids, he really needs a lot of love with his new family too. He listens and wants to please, but he's also a timid and likes to be babied while cuddling.

He gets along with our other dog, but is nervous around other dogs and isn't familiar with cats. He likes to be outdoors, but enjoys family time inside and is potty trained in his areas, but supervised. He loves walks and being cuddled, he's not hyper, he's more of a lay in your lap and hang out kind of dog. He's really happy and would be great in a home with kids who give him attention.
