Story
Meet Chester, a handsome adult Yorkshire Terrier who is looking for someone special to help him feel safe and comfortable in his new world. Chester can be a little nervous when he first meets people and will need some time and patience to settle in. Once he realizes he is in a safe place, he can begin to relax and let his personality shine. Chester is working hard on his potty training and will need a family willing to continue helping him learn with consistency, patience, and positive encouragement. For now, he wears a belly band to help with marking while he works on his house manners. Chester's perfect home will be one where he isn't rushed and where his people understand that building trust takes time. If you're willing to give this little guy the patience and love he needs, Chester could become a wonderful and loyal companion. Sometimes the dogs who need a little extra time are the ones who make the sweetest friends! All our pups are spayed/neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, 4DX negative (if older than 6 months), dewormed and microchipped. To meet this sweet pup, fill out an application today!

Story
Heiress is a sweetheart dog that absolutely loves attention. I agreed to foster her when her owner was between homes. After finding out she has allergies that require grain free food, and a care routine, her owner refused to reimburse her medical costs and abandoned her with me. That was a year ago. Unfortunately, with her needs, my work schedule and health issues, I can’t give her what she needs. She is such a sweetheart, and gets so happy to see you she prances and wags her tail so much her butt wiggles! She just needs a home that can care for her and give her the attention she needs.
