My story

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

Mackey is 14 lbs. and has been with us since he was a puppy. We can’t keep him because of long hours worked now, his behavior plus the dog is alone too much.
He is 75% Yorkie & 25% Maltese and is a good little guy, potty trained, loves attention and playing with balls, his favorite toy.
He was 3 on March 26. He loves people & has never bitten anyone but there are times he sits in a corner or by a wall & if you walk by he growls deeply. I believe if someone could work with him and use a personal trainer/behaviorist that habit can be broken. That is the only negative thing about this cute guy. When he growls it is intense but other than that, he loves walks & attention. He does bark too.
