Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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

West Linn, OR - We adopted Lola as a puppy from a breeder where we lived in a townhouse in a community where there weren't any fences. It became obvious that we were not in a suitable environment to train her. Coincidentally, a friend of a friend was looking for another Yorkie to join them and their Yorkie, Bella. Lola was with them for nearly 3 years. Then, this June they messaged that Lola had begun to act out and jealous & possessive with Bella. They took Lola to the vet to evaluate her and they put her on a daily sedative. After several weeks, Lola's behavior did not change and the fights (barking and chasing after Bella) continued. Lola didn't bite Bella but she was hostile with her. They asked us if we would consider taking Lola back. During this time, we did move to a 1-story home with a fenced yard, and I hoped it would work. We took her back and weaned her from the drug. It is obvious to us that Lola would thrive in a new home in a single-dog family. Birth Date 3/4/20.
