Story
We purchased Coco as a puppy from a Yorkie breeder in our area. For us she is a house pet. She loves to sleep on laps. She loves to play fetch with a sock toy. She is energetic, intelligent, curious, playful, loving and sometimes mischievous. If something is on or falls to the floor - it’s hers! We are unable to walk her outside. She uses pet potty papers indoors. She uses a crate to sleep at night and sometimes during the day. She will enter crate when directed. If in her crate, she will make sound if she needs to eliminate. Her food is Hills dry kibble. Her reward treats are chicken. She loves chewsticks, too. Why do we want/need to re-home? We are seniors with some mobility issues (knee replacement last Dec & spine fusion surgery this year) and her liveliness is more than we are able to manage well. Our past small breed dogs (Chihuahua and Maltese) were less active. Coco Chanel deserves an owner able to walk her and respond to her need for activity better than we can.
