Story
7-year-old Male Yorkshire Terrier | 5 lbs Scooter is a tiny 5-pound, 7-year-old Yorkie with a gentle heart and a quiet soul. He is a former breeder dog, so he can be very shy at first. When meeting new people, Scooter may slowly back away until he feels safe. With patience and kindness, he quickly learns he can trust you—and once he does, he becomes a sweet little snuggle buddy. He does fit nicely in a satchel or carrying bag. Scooter is an exceptionally quiet dog. In fact, I’ve only heard him bark once since he’s been in my care. He loves to sit beside his person or curl up on a warm lap and simply enjoy being close. He does need to be watched as he has started lap guarding with the other dogs. When not protecting moms lap, he is great with other dogs and came in with Gertrude as a breeding pair. 🩺 Medical & Special Care Scooter has an eye condition with limited vision. Because of this, he currently requires two different eye drops twice daily. He handles his care well and is otherwise doing fine. He will have a recheck on Friday 1/30 to see if the eye drops help or if they are needed in the future. He gets around fine. Due to cold weather, Scooter currently refuses to go outside, so he wears a belly band and is not fully potty trained. If taken outside, he would need a secure fenced yard. A patient home that understands his background and is willing to continue working with very shy dogs will help him thrive. Fast movements are scary for breeder release dogs. 💙 Ideal Home Scooter would do best in a quiet, loving home with:    •   Patience and gentle handling    •   Another small dog companion    •   A calm environment, no kids.    •   Someone who enjoys a cuddly lap dog Once Scooter knows you’re safe, he will reward you with trust, affection, and the sweetest companionship. Apply to adopt at www.campcompanion.org Adoption fee is $350 plus tax.

Story
Gertrude is a sweet but shy 7.5-lb Yorkie who has been released from a breeding situation and is now ready to experience the love she’s always deserved. Though timid at first, Gertrude blossoms once she feels safe. When trust is earned, she becomes a devoted snuggle buddy who enjoys sharing cuddles and companionship. She gets along well with other dogs and cats and is adorably curious—always wanting to know what’s going on around her. Gertrude is making progress with potty training but will need continued consistency to master it. She is working on learning to walk on a leash, though she will need a patient adopter willing to continue helping her build confidence. A securely fenced yard is required, as she is a flight risk and may try to dart out an open door. Careful door management will be important to keep this little girl safe. She would do best with another dog and shares cuddles easily. Scared dogs like little Gertrude do better in adult only homes or with homes with older kids who will understand when the dog feels nervous and might need space. Fast movements are very scary for these breeder release dogs who have lived their life unsocialized. Gerty is a truly special pup just waiting for the right lap to fill! If you’re willing to be patient with her, she will reward you with so much love! Gertrude is having her teeth cleaned on Tuesday Feb. 3 and can be adopted that next weekend. Adoption fee: $350 + tax Apply to adopt: www.campcompanion.org
