Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Mylo is about 9 months old now. We are looking to give Mylo to a loving and somewhat active family with good space for Mylo to live. Mylo is such a sweetheart and is great with other dogs. He can be shy at times but is very friendly with everybody. He tends to get excited easily but settles down quickly. He loves to be outside, whether it's just sitting out there, playing fetch, or going on a walk. He loves food, treats, naps, and toys. He is a great playmate and a quick learner. He is potty trained and knows how to signal to you when he needs to go outside. He knows a lot of commands and can be trained on new ones easily. We are only giving Mylo away because our schedules no longer allow us to take care of him the way he deserves. Anyone would be lucky to have Mylo.

Daisy is a very sweet girl, she gets along great with our other dogs and children, but she does not do well with our chickens and ducks. Daisy is very playful, energetic and loves to be near you. We are working on crate and house training and she is learning. She would benefit from a home with no livestock, lots of room to play and someone who wouldn’t mind her snuggling up with them.

Sammy

Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier

Male, Senior

Athens, GA

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Sammy is a Chihuahua Yorkie mix who is about 15 years old. He's a super sweet boy, but he needs a home with someone who doesn't go out much as he tends to have accidents when he gets anxious. Someone older or retired is probably perfect. He has severe separation anxiety, which means if you don't want your dog to be consistently right by your feet, he's probably not the right fit for you. He loves to be in your space once he gets to know you. He is used to roaming around outside without a leash, but is able to walk on one without hassle. He eats fresh pet food at the moment, he doesn't tend to enjoy dry kibble, and he's quite picky about treats. He's up to date on all his shots, but the vet did say he has the beginnings of a heart murmur which is quite common for small breed dogs. Nothing major yet, but something to keep an eye on as he continues aging. I need to rehome him because my family is unable to provide adequate care for him emotionally and financially.
