Story
Toby is a very sweet chocolate yorkipoo. Unfortunately, Toby has severe separation anxiety. It has been that way from the first day we met. It has gradually improved over the past year but still can be difficult to manage. Toby would do amazing with someone who can be around a lot. (A family, retired individual, SAHM, work-from-home situation, etc. would definitely be a great fit for Toby.) I live alone and have a busy work schedule. I gave up one of my jobs recently (for various reasons) which has helped Toby to have company. But I can’t do that forever. Toby does amazing with my friend’s family (4 people, several pets) and I think it’s because he always has human contact (someone is usually at home or if everyone is away, it’s very brief). He LOVES to be held and cuddled. In fact, he’ll almost sigh in relief at being held.

Story
Her name is Conchita! She is a one year old red heeler frenchie mix. She loves attention, going on walks and chasing soccer balls at the park. We have only had her around other dogs a few times. She’s been playful. Her cherry eye came out a few weeks after we got her. We got her when she was about a month old. She sleeps inside her crate and stays in the back yard for the majority of the day. Unfortunately we do not have enough time as we anticipated to be able to enjoy her. We are looking for a home where she can get the attention she deserves. She is very people friendly. We have never heard her be aggressive with other people. She loves being petted by strangers. We get asked what type of dog she is often during our trips to the park, she is unique.
