Yorkshire Terrier and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Metamora, Michigan

Meet Sam!

This five-year-old, 11-pound yorkie mix is as spunky as they come! He just can't wait to be by your side!

This little man is all about having a good time! He's very food-motivated, knows sit, and is always on the move. He's curious and very playful! Bust out his favorite rubber orange ball and he's ready to entertain himself (and you) for years to come.

Of course Sam balances his playful side with an affectionate side as well. He loves to jump right in your lap and will happily bestow an abundance of kisses on your face- just to show you how much he appreciates your time. Throw in a belly rub and he'll be your best bud for life!

Based on our evaluation, we feel Sam would do best in an active home with adults or families with kids of all ages. He does tend to be pretty dominant with other female pups his size, but may be able to live with another animal. We are happy to do a meet and greet with your family fur baby, but he may be best suited as an only dog.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.

The Yorkshire Terrier, also known as Yorkie, is a small and glamorous toy dog breed known for its long, flowing coat and spirited personality. Originating from England, these affectionate and intelligent dogs make wonderful companions for individuals and families alike. With a weight of around 7 pounds, Yorkies are portable and adaptable, thriving in both city apartments and rural settings. Despite their small size, they possess a bold and confident nature, always ready for fun and adventure.
