Mountain Cur and Yorkshire Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Jefferson Hills, Pennsylvania

MEET OUR SWEET GIRL

Lady's never known what it's like to run through grass, play with a toy, or feel safe enough to trust a hand reaching toward her — but she's learning.

This little 8 lb Yorkie (2–3 years old) spent her life as a breeder dog, most likely never leaving a crate. Now, she's discovering that the world has so much more to offer — treats, toys, belly rubs, and the kind of love she's never known.

She's cautious with people and takes time to warm up, but she makes progress every single day. She would thrive in a home with a gentle canine companion to show her the ropes.
