Me Again Male yorkie in So Cal needs new home I have been back to work for 4 days now and poor little Kojaks anxiety is rearing its ugly head and unfortunantly he is not comforted by his fur siblings. Here is his story sorry it is kind of long: My name is Kojack. I am a 5-7 year old neutered yorkie boy. I weigh between 5.5 and 6.5 lbs. I get along great with kids, other dogs small and big and I also get along with cats. I was taken in my current mom about two years ago when she only worked part time. I had time to spend with her and that made me feel happy and secure. Now with the econmy in such a state she has been working more hours leaving me home alone with the others dogs but I still feel very loney. To easy my anxiety I have a tendency to let everyone know about my sorrows and I will bark all day until she comes home. When she finally walks through the door I have to stick by her every moment I can’t let her out of my sight cause she may leave me again. I am beside myself with worrry and can’t relax afraid of the moment she will leave again. When I am by her side I am quite and just love being next to her. I am a rather well behaved little guy and really want to please anyone who is able to give me the much needed attention. I would really love it if someone could be with me most of the day or take me with you and as much as I love my fur siblings I would prefer to live with maybe one other. I think this would also make me feel more secure and I could then really focus on house training. I get it most of the time but then I need to push for that extra attention. I am a little special in that I have a very thin coat and in some areas I have lost fur. It is a condition known as Alopecia (hair loss) related to dilute coat color is a recognized condition in dogs. CDA is characterized by loss of hair from dilutely pigmented areas. Coats are normal at birth, and onset of hair loss usually begins between six months and three years of age. Hair loss usually begins along the dorsal midline (middle of the back) and often spares the head, tail and limbs. In blue dogs with tan points (Yorkies and Dobermans) the tan areas retain a normal appearance. The good news is that I love to wear all the newest fashionable clothing. This condition has not affedt my health and as a matter of fact my mom started to feed me a raw diet and I have actually started to fill in more hair so I think I would prefer to saty with raw. If you have room in your heart to love me for who I am and are home a lot to help me feel secure could you please give my mom a call because I know she really feels guilty that she is not able to keep me happy and I feel bad that I am so insecure. |
