Coco - Yorkshire Terrier and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Chattanooga, Tennessee

Meet Coco! This tiny adorable little girl is a 2yr old, 4lb, Yorkie Mix (possibly Yorkiepoo or Yorkie/Shih Tzu). She is very shy when she first meets new people but does warm up after a day or two of slow, proper introduction. She is good with dogs and cats of all sizes and also kids. Takes her longer to warm up to men than women. Uses potty pads and will occassionally use the bathromm outside as well. Not comfortable on a leash so needs to go to a home with a fenced in yard because she loves to get the zoomies and run all over the yard and also enjoys sunbathing.
