DESCRIPTION
Dawson is an adorable 13-year-old Yorkie. He weighs 9 pounds. Dawson came to us from a local shelter after being found out and about. The shelter estimated him to be 9 and we think he looks and acts like that as well but as we did some digging into the microchip he already had, it revealed it had been implanted 13 years ago. Yorkies live a long time and we think this sweet guy has plenty of great years left!
Dawson may be a Yorkie but his foster mom jokes that he moonlights as a bunny. He's got the energy of a sweet young pup, and will show you how happy he is by how high he's hopping through the house! He loves a good snuggle and will happily be your bathroom bodyguard. He has become quite the little Velcro pup recently. He is a little hard of hearing but you can easily get his attention with a soft clap or cough and he is learning a sign for sit. He loves short walks in this fall weather!
He is house trained, crate trained, and walks well on a leash. He would love to find a forever home where he can be his authentic snugglebunny self and get all the love he deserves!
