Story
🐾 Meet Rodger Rodger is an amazing Yorkie who’s ready to find his forever home! This handsome boy is estimated to be around 3 years old. Rodger has a fun, playful side and truly enjoys engaging with his people and other pups. He would thrive in a home that already has another friendly dog as he loves having a companion to share his days with. He does best in a calm, relaxing environment. Once he settles in, his sweet personality really shines. Rodger is also a very good boy in the house: he uses the doggy door like a pro and hasn't had an accident indoors. If you’re looking for a loving, playful little dog who already has great manners and a gentle soul, Rodger might just be your perfect match. 💙🐶

Story
Rehoming this beautiful male dog. He’s about 2-3 years old. Reason for rehoming is landlord will not allow him as we are moving into a new rental that doesn't allow large dogs. Reason for moving into a new rental is we are expecting our third baby and needed a bigger home. He is fully house trained and gets well great with kids of all ages and other dogs. He was adopted from a shelter in Bakersfield so I am not wanting to put him back in one so looking to get him into a great household. He is full of energy and loves walks. Can walk off leash and will return when you call him back. Also knows basic commands.
