Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie - Douglas - Small - Senior - Male - Dog
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Douglas is an 11 yr old Yorkie that was an owner surrender. He is a lovable little dog. He is 11 years old but you wouldn't know it. He is active for an 11 year old dog. His teeth look great. He just has so much live in him for his age. He's neutered and up to date on shots. He's fully house trained. He is on the bigger size of a yorkie so he may be a mix breed. He does have some anxiety issues. He don'ts like to be kenneled and will bark while in the kennel. Outside of the kennel he is very well behaved and quiet. So he's very vocal in his kennel but quiet outside of it. At night he sleeps in his foster moms room and he will lay on the bed for a little while and then he moves to sleep under the bed. He gets nervous with fast movement or loud noises. He is a pacer when he's nervous too. Once he decides the room is safe he settles down and will lay on the back of the couch. He loves to sit next to you on the couch. He will play with some of the other small dogs in the foster home. He doesn't care much for the 13 yr old kiddo in the home though so he's going to have to go to a home with much older kids or no kids at all. He doesn't like to be grabbed quickly and snuck up on. He will nip to defend himself if he feels threatened. He needs quiet home where her can unwind and be himself. He is having some sneezing issues right now so we are working on figuring that out. He has improved a lot since he's been in foster care. He was sneezing so hard when we first took him in he would bash his head on the ground and he got a sore above his one eye. But the sore is healing and he hasn't had a horrible sneezing attack lately, just small sneezes every now and then so I think he was allergic to the food they were feeding him at the rescue we got him from so a grain free feed is probably going to be a must for Douglas. If you would like to give this sweet dog a great home please fill out an application at www.mitchellanimalresuce.org His adoption fee is $125.00 *** URGENT *** FOSTER HOMES NEEDED We are in URGENT need of foster homes for the dogs and cats we rescue from the city of Mitchell's pound. We have seen an increase in the number of animals not being claimed by their owners. Fostering is a necessary, but temporary situation for these animals. We have a good placement record, but we have more dogs and cats that need foster homes than we have homes for them. The animals in the shelter are strays so we don't have a lot of information (age, good with kids, good with other animals, etc.) about them before we take them into foster care. A lot is learned in the first few hours they are in the foster's home. What we do know is they will have their shots and are not vicious. They might not get along with other dogs or cats, so they will need proper introductions. Worst case scenario, if an animal doesn't work out in your home we will transfer it to another foster home. All necessary vetting is provided for our foster animals. We can also provide toys, bedding and other supplies, and help with food if needed. That means there is no cost to you! If you can help us, please submit a volunteer application found under Forms. Please help us save these animals from euthanasia.
