Story
Cody is a young purebred Yorkie Terrier full of personality and charm. He absolutely loves playing with balls, squeaky toys, and chew bones,but his favorite thing of all is cuddling. This sweet little guy is the ultimate snuggle bug and will happily curl up in a ball right on your lap. We believe he is under 3 years old. He is currently in the process of being potty trained. Cody gets along with other dogs when off-leash and enjoys socializing, but he can be hyperactive on-leash and vocal. We have introduced him to crate training (as our other dog is crate trained), but he’s still adjusting. Cody would thrive with an experienced dog owner who is willing to work with him and possibly enroll him in obedience training. He would do well in a home with adults and older children. He is incredibly affectionate and eager to please, he just needs the time and attention he deserves.
