Joey - Yorkshire Terrier Dog for Adoption in Minneapolis, Minnesota

About Me

Meet Joey, a well-rounded, easygoing guy—he's just as happy lounging by your side as he is joining you for a walk or a game of keep away. Joey is a professional cuddler who loves neck scratches and curling up next to you. He's not overly silly or serious, just a steady companion who enjoys being near his people.

Joey is crate trained, potty trained, and walks nicely on a leash. He's friendly with other dogs and has shown no aggression, and does well with new people. He can however get a bit reactive to animals on TV. Joey isn't much for fetch (you'll get one good fetch!), but he loves snuffle mats, crinkle toys, and a good round of keep away. His favorite games—tug and keep away—can get a little rough, so he's best suited for families without children or with older kids. He has not had exposure to kids or cats yet.

Joey sleeps peacefully in his crate and doesn't show signs of separation anxiety. He's not a fan of nail trims, so that's a job best left to the pros. Joey does very well with baths though, acting as if it's a day at the spa for him!

If you're looking for a companion who's easy to live with, enjoys both activity and downtime, and will be your loyal sidekick, Joey might be your perfect match. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply to adopt Joey today!
