Learn more about the Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie.
At 5 pounds, Coach is the perfect lapdog! He came to rescue because his family had to move to a different home that did not allow dogs.
He is used to being loved and is looking for a new family to do just that! Are you the right family for him?
He is loving and loyal and likes to be with his human. He rides nicely in the car and goes with his Foster Mom on her daily errands where he is getting used to all the attention a cute little Yorkie naturally gets.
He does not like living with other dogs - so NO other dogs should be in his new family. He would not welcome another dog as a frequent visitor so please understand - he needs discipline to learn what he is allowed to do and what he is not allowed. Putting him in a crate for a time out is not discipline. He needs an experienced guardian who will love him but show him what the rules are in the home. Please - no children under 10 years old and no Cats or other Dogs. He loves people but not cats or dogs. Since he is only 4 years old, so he needs an active family who walks daily and religiously. This is important to his health and happiness. A fenced yard is nice but does not give him the stimulation that a walk provides. All dogs need that exercise and socialization.
He loves to play - with squeaky toys and little squeaky balls. (His favorite toy now is a pink piggy that squeaks when he bites on the middle!) He is mostly house broken but keep in mind that that is because he has access to the outdoors at all times in his foster home through a doggie door. This would not be true in most homes so he would have to be taken outside often to learn to be on a schedule for pottying.
He loves to nap on the couch or snuggle in a doggie bed at night. He eats very well and really likes to be combed and brushed! Coach's Foster home is near Annapolis, MD. Again - he needs an experienced dog owner, who is active and has time to walk him, train him and play with him. Love is NOT enough. Keep these needs in mind when you consider adopting any dog.
