Tee is the perfect fur family member for those who do not want to deal with the puppy stage but still wants a dog that likes to go for walks. He is a 15 lbs. male 5 yr old Yorkie mix who loves to play catch with a ball or hang with the humans while they read a book or watch TV. When he gets excited, he will get on his back and wiggle around for belly rubs.

Tee sleeps great in the crate but would prefer to sleep in a warm cozy bed and he does not try to steal the whole bed, and you will find nestled in the corner and sleeps without a beep. He is completely housetrained and goes to the door to go potty! He knows basic commands like sit and stay. He has been left alone for a few hours with no issues. He is making his foster siblings look bad and they would love for him to go to a new home so their parents don't get used to a well-behaved dog and they will have to start shaping up! He has had some dental work done in the past and has a few teeth missing on one side which is typical of Yorkies at this age, but it does not bother him a bit. He would need a diet of small breed dog food and canned. He will also need routine grooming. His hair is short now because he was recently trimmed up and has a beautiful coat when long. He also likes soft treats, cheese cubes and blueberries. He is dog and cat friendly. Consider adopting this cutie or the foster family might try to trade in one of their dogs for him since he is so sweet and well behaved!

Likes: Playing catch with a ball. Being with humans. Velcro dog!

Dislikes: Nothing!

All fees include spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations, deworming, and the dog will be current on flea, tick, and heartworm preventatives. All dogs over 6 months of age have been tested and are heartworm negative.
