Zippy (and Buttons) - Yorkshire Terrier Dog for Adoption

Meet Zippy! Zippy is a 4 year-old Yorkie, about 3-5 pounds. He's full of spunk, very smart and affectionate.

Zippy is very aware of his surroundings and keeps an eye on his buddy, Buttons. He loves kisses and cuddles and being held on the lap. Zippy likes short walks, running on the grass, and being held and carried. He sleeps well in his crate, through the night, and loves being near his humans. He is bonded with Buttons, and they're hoping for a forever home together!

Zippy is very trainable and can probably be potty trained in no time. He's just a joy to watch and be around and will make a great addition to any household!

Zippy and Buttons are currently fostered in Staten Island, NY. Their combined adoption fee is $1000.

To adopt this animal, please visit https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt

All of our animals come spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, are microchipped, heartworm negative, current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention, dewormed, and treated for any ailments found upon veterinary examination. The adoption fee covers a portion of these services, and makes it possible for us to continue rescuing animals.

For more information on the adoption fees and the adoption process, please complete our adoption application here: https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt - an application allows us to get to know your family better so we can assess whether the animal you are interested in is a good match for your home. An application does not obligate you to adopt. Please understand that due to the volume of applications some animals receive, we are unable to contact all applicants. If your application is considered a good fit for the animal you are interested in, or even a different pet, a volunteer will give you a call as soon as possible.

We are a foster based rescue and do not have a shelter location where animals can be seen during the week. Please see our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/LouiesLegacy for our weekly adoption album if you are interested in meeting an animal in person. Not all animals attend every adoption event, please check our Facebook page for animal event times and locations before you make a trip to meet a specific animal.
