Sylkie - Yorkshire Terrier and Maltese Dog for Adoption in Chico, California

Meet Sylkie

Sylkie is a 2-year-old Yorkie/Maltese mix and she is tiny. Like, pick-her-up-with-one-hand tiny. She's shy at first, but underneath that cautious exterior is a cuddle monster just waiting to be unleashed.

Quiet confidence. Once Sylkie gets comfortable, a whole new side comes out. She'll start exploring her surroundings with the cutest curiosity, and when she wants your attention? She'll let you know. This girl communicates on her own terms.

What to know about Sylkie:

Very shy initially but blossoms with patience and a calm environment
An absolute cuddle bug once she trusts you
Gets curious and adventurous once she feels safe in her space
Tiny but mighty in the personality department

Sylkie just needs someone who'll let her warm up at her own pace. Once she does, you've got a pint-sized best friend who'll never leave your side.
