Story
Yoshi is a true gem - a gentle, lovable senior who has lifelong unconditional love to give. Yoshi is a small Shih Tzu and is approximately 11 years old. He is slowing down a bit... some would say that he is as slow as a snail! Yoshi is blind so he needs to be carried because he cannot see where he is going...he must be transported around the house and to his food, outside and to bed. His world is a little dark, and he needs his human to guide him to where he needs to go. He has had surgery on his teeth, leaving only a few good teeth in his mouth, so soft food is a must for him. He will also need eye drops daily, morning and night for dry eye. His eyes also will need to be wiped daily. Although Yoshi will require some special care, he will definitely show you his appreciation with his constant companionship. Yoshi is the ultimate lapdog that is very loving, loyal, sweet and trustworthy. He loves other dogs and cats, and he is great with kids too! Even though he does love other dogs, he does not like them around his food while he is eating, so his human will need to be aware of his food protection. Yoshi will melt your heart with his slow movements, gentle nature, and love for cuddling and affection. He is incredibly sweet and loves nothing more than being around his people. Yoshi absolutely loves to cuddle in bed with you and will stay there all day waiting for you to come get him! Yoshi's heart belongs to his humans, and he must sleep in bed with you, so if you are not willing to share your bed, Yoshi may not be the dog for you. There is no playing with toys or going on walks for Yoshi, those days are behind him! Now he just longs for getting carried around and loved on. He doesn't need much outside of his daily eye drops, soft food, and some extra care. Yoshi is house trained and has been very reliable while in foster care, so you can count on him to do his potty business outside. He is a true easygoing old man who just wants love and attention. Yoshi is a special boy who will thrive in a loving home where he can be pampered and cared for in his golden years. He's gentle and loving and deserves just the same in return. He may be an ancient baby, but he has a heart full of love and a soul that just wants to be close to his family.
