Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello,
My name is Dexter.. I was rescued in the nick of time by Yorkie Rescue of America (God bless them) and now I'm living with my foster mom. She is a good person, she loves me and tells me everyday what a handsome man I am, Here is a little more about me.
I am 8-9 years old, I am a neutered male, up to date on all my shots, micro chipped, teeth cleaned. I have tick fever but I'm being treated for it now and it will be gone soon (before I'm adopted) I am a very happy, loving boy who just loves attention .I am blind in my left eye but you would never know because It does not slow me down one bit. I am fully potty trained, I use the doggie door to go outside anytime I want. I am kennel trained and I am leash trained. I love to go on walks and play with toys. I really enjoy giving kisses to you and I have the fastest tongue in the west..lol. I weigh 6.5 pounds and I have a beautiful coat of long hair. My foster mom says I am so handsome and such a good boy, she really loves me. I am looking for my forever home, I get along well with other dogs, not sure about cats because we don't have any where I live now. I would prefer a stay home mom as I don't really like being home all alone. I would prefer no children under the age of 10 because they scare me. I am a inside dog, please don't leave me outside or in a cage all day. I'm a good boy, I don't dig or chew on anything that is not mine. I sleep with my foster mom and my other yorkie friends and I like that. I have not had a very good life in the past, but the past is the past and I left it behind me. I am a happy loving little guy and I'm looking for the same with my new family. If you are interested in adopting me please contact Yorkie Rescue of America and ask for Dexter (that's me) I will be waiting to hear from you.
