My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Yogi! This little man is approximately 1-2 years old. He was found locked in a basement in Detroit MI from a dog outreach program. He was flea infested, severely matted and covered in feces. Although he has had a rough past, he is ready to find his forever family where he can be spoiled!

Yogi has been neutered, vaccinated and his skin issues have been being tended to. Due to his large flea infestation, he lost all of the hair on his bum. It has slowly been growing back, and we suspect it to be fully grown in in the next few months!

Yogi has been working on potty training. He has been doing well for the most part but does need frequent reminders to go outside. He does well with other dogs, however he tends to try and mount others out of excitement. Due to these behaviors, we feel he would do best as the only dog in the home (or with a doggy sibling who is tolerant of this behavior). He is definitely a velcro dog, and he loves soaking up all the attention he can get! We feel like he would do well in a home with children. Yogi does have some separation anxiety and also car anxiety. He needs someone who is home more often than not, and someone who will continue to work with him as he transitions into a new household.

Yogi is such a sweet boy and we are glad he is finally able to live the life that he deserves!

Does Yogi sound like a good fit for your family? Reach out for an adoption application!
