Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Gigi, a sweet 2 year old, 9 pound Parti Yorkie mix girl being fostered in McKinney, TX. Only TX applicants will be considered
Hello everybody,
It is me GiGi filling you in on the past few weeks ever since I became a pretty baby mama. Kawaii is a little over four weeks old and getting more independent. Foster mom says that I am a very good mother and that I love my baby so so much As a good mother I know that it is probably time to start to wean my little Kawaii off the milk supply. So that is my next project for the next few weeks.
Let me tell you a little bit about me. I am around two years old, I weigh about 9.8 pounds and I am a single mother. I gave Joe Joe his walking papers the other day. I am potty trained as I have not had but a couple of accidents in the house. I will walk to the back door and bark or if she is taking a nap I will bark right in front of her face to let her know I want to go out and do my business. LI love to sun in the backyard. I am not much of a toy player but who knows maybe after Kawaii has found her home and I have been spayed I may find myself enjoying playing with toys.
Went my milk dries up, I will be getting more shots, spayed and then they will start my heartworm treatment and hopefully because I was just a light positive after the first treatment when they test me before the second treatment, maybe most of those Heartworms will be gone. Sure would have been great for the breeder who had me before to give me some type of heartworm preventative to stop this kind of health problem to invade my beautiful heart. So as of right now I take a monthly flea and tick preventative and foster mom doesn't let me go outside the backyard. I am a Biewer (Parti)Yorky mix and my hair is very soft, fine and silky. My teeth look great too. I was very very shy and timid when I first got here but I am starting to go up to foster mom for pets and every once in a while I'll even hang out with her on the bed or couch and give her a kiss or two. I believe I would be good as an only dog or you could add me to your pack. I just know I will blossom more when the perfect human with lots of patience adopts and shows me the love that I crave so much for. FM calls me pretty baby mama because I am gorgeous and I'm a good mama.
So that's what I have been doing in the past weeks. I became a mama to Kawaii so I have been taking very good care of her while foster mom takes very good care of me. Soon I will be returning to the dogter to get more shots, spay and my heartworm treatment.
My next pupdate will list exactly what I'll need or want for my furever home and hoomans so please stay tuned. Foster mom is excepting applications for me but please be aware it may be 4 to 8 weeks before I officially start my search for my forever home and forever hoomans and maybe a four-legged brother or sister or two. No kids under 12 due to my mild demeanor. You can submit an application at the link at the very bottom of my biography. If you have any questions, you can email foster mom at
stickhors@gmail.com.
