Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Riley is a very playful, and cuddly 8 year old purebred Yorkie. I got him from a breeder when he was a puppy. He is pee pad trained but he will also go outside. He enjoys playing with his favorite teddy bear that he's had since he was a baby, going for walks, and just hanging out with me. He is not good with children, which is why I have to rehome him. It breaks my heart to do so, but I recently had a baby and can't risk anything happening to her. I think he would do best with an elderly person or with someone who isn't around kids very often.
He does have occasional allergies that require medication, and he has a cataract in one eye, but it does not bother him.
