DESCRIPTION
Hello! Im Dorothy Jo, a pretty little 10-month-old, 10-lb Maltese Yorkie mix with a very soft coat and a happy personality. I was living in Uvalde, Texas, but when my owner could no longer care for me, I was surrendered to a dog rescue. I am now staying in a foster home while getting ready for adoption. I am spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to find a forever family!
Besides being extremely adorable, I am still a puppy at heart! Happy and friendly, gobs of energy, playful and active, a bit shy at first with strangers, but otherwise, great with people and other dogs. I love dog toys and Nylabones, and playing with other dogs. I am affectionate, but not clingy, doing great with housebreaking, and I know how to use a potty pad. I don't mind being in a crate, and I will walk on a leash with a bit of encouragement. I adapt easily to new situations, and I love meeting new dog friends. I would enjoy being included in family activities, and having an active lifestyle with another dog at home would make me the happiest girl in town! Inquire about me today.
