Why I need a new home

Busy schedule

My story

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

Rico is a 16 year old Yorkie. He's coming from a house with 2 big dogs. He does good with other dogs, but needs to be fed and given treats separate from them or there will be conflict. He loves kids, but ideally would do best with a single or older lady. He's very laid back and loves to snuggle. He has lost all his teeth so he eats wet dog food. He weighs about 9 lbs. And he is house trained. My husband is a disabled combat veteran and has a lot of health problems that require us to travel out of town at times and Rico doesn't handle it well at all. He needs somebody who can spend more time with him.
