Meet Yam, a pup as sweet as a candied yam with a heart full of love and a spirit of curiosity. She's a mellow little 15-pound lady, always up for a cuddle and a nap. She likes sitting on lap, being petted, and never being by herself. But don't be fooled by her calm demeanor, she's also playful and energetic, ready to explore new toys and games. Yam does have a habit of chewing, so be ready with plenty of toys! Likes most puppies, she needs to be taught about house training and leash walking. Yam is a bit shy, especially around other dogs, but she's extremely gentle, tolerant, and submissive. She is also afraid at first and she might hide from them. She's got a playful streak with children, making her a perfect addition to a family. She is easygoing and friendly with young kids. Despite her quiet shyness, Yam is a needy girl, always eager for your attention and affection. She's looking for a forever home where she can feel safe and loved. Adopt Yam and let her fill your life with joy and companionship. (tw 10/30/2024)
