Yorkshire Terrier and Dachshund Dogs Available for Adoption in Santa Monica, California

MEET SEBASTIAN….a teeny, weenie, 6 lb, 7-8 month old, black/tan, (more than likely) Yorkie/Doxie mix, who was about to go to rainbow bridge when we stepped in and saved his life. You ask yourself, why anyone euthanize a fluff puff puppy…whose tail is longer than his life has been — maybe that would be a question to the owner who put a parvo dog into the Moreno Valley shelter :(((( Sebastian had a bad case of this horrible disease, but we got to him just in time and now he thrives!

We don’t know a lot about Sebastian, except he is very very sweet, kissy, well behaved puppy and absolutely cute as a button (are buttons this cute?) After spending a week at the vet, we got him neutered and he is back to being a happy boy! Poor thing never walked on a leash or did stairs, but he is learning. He loves to eat, which is great after having parvo. Vet says he has made a full recovery so all he needs to do is grow up! He loves being with you, with other dogs, happy with respectful/gentle kids and when he looks at you with those bedroom brown eyes, all you want to do is tell him you love him and he’ll do the rest!

If you have a pup at home who is looking for a new BFF brother, Sebastian may be the ticket. Seems to do his business on a pp pad MOST of the time, wants to please and just a home that will have patience and raise him to be the best baby he can be. Training should always be in order for puppies, so please have the time and desire. Does that sound like you? He won’t last long!
