Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Gizmo! Gizmo is a 9 year old male yorkie. He came to us as a breeder surrender. Gizmo is toothless, so you see that often his tongue will hang out of his mouth, which makes him all that more endearing. He has a spunky terrier personality and loves to be held. His foster mom reports that he shakes a lot, but once you put a sweater or tshirt on him he stops. He likes to cuddle with other dogs in his dog bed. He recently got neutered, so we are hoping that once the hormones subside he might be more successful with potty training, but for now that area is still a work in progress. Gizmo's adoption donation of $250, which helps cover the cost of his medical care.
Application, reference checks, and home visit required. Adopters must live 1.5 hours driving distance from Romeoville, IL. For more information on adopting, please email us at info@perfectpooches.org.

All dogs are spayed/neutered, current on vaccines, heartworm tested (age appropriate), fecal tested and/or dewormed, and microchipped.
