About Yoyo
Yoyo is a young male chihuahua mix, we think about 2 years old with lots of energy. Gets along with the other small dogs in the house, attention is his reward! Working on comfort levels with men, not sure about cats or kiddos. Yoyo loves to be right at your heels, and is a fantastic jumper and climber! He will take your love over a treat any day and has been working on sharing attention with the other pups in the house. Yoyo also loves snuggles, and will curl up with the other dogs for movie night. Leash walking is going well, working on confidence (he gets a little scared of moving cars and too many noises, but will let you know he'd rather be held when he's overwhelmed). Fetch and tug are super fun, zooming around the yard and talking to the neighbors makes him happy too! Yoyo is full of energy and such a great little guy. He will need to keep working on basic commands like sit, stay and down. We have been working on not "doordashing and he is eager to please, positive reassurance and consistent gentle redirection goes a long way with him. Yoyo loves snuggling and kisses, and would love to continue working on new skills and tricks with you!
Yoyo is fixed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations for their age.

Twin Cities Pet Rescue (TCPR) is a small, 501c3 nonprofit, companion animal rescue organization. TCPR does not have a facility and is 100% foster-based. TCPR rescues dogs, cats and small animals of all breeds; rescuing them from city impounds, puppy mills, and other situations of abuse and neglect. Once rescued, all animals receive veterinary care ranging from spay/neuter, vaccines, microchips, and basic testing to specialty eye surgeries, pet dermatology care, and various other specialty treatments. Once an animal is rescued by TCPR, it remains in a foster home until adopted, no matter how long that might take.
TCPR often rescues animals that are considered “less adoptable” by other rescue organizations, as they are often the ones overlooked and truly left behind; and in need of the most help. These animals might be overlooked due to their age, health status, special needs or breed. TCPR works to help as many animals in need find their furever families as we can, especially helping those animals that need help most.
