My Kipper and CJ need new homes. I don't even know where start.
I have 4 small dogs (2 yorkies, chihuahua and chorkie), 2 big dogs (aussie and beagle) - 6 all together. And unfortunately, have run in to some very difficult financial circumstances. If it were possible, I would take more in! I can't do that responsibly.
I have no choice but to re-home two of my dogs: one of the Yorkies and the Chorkie.
Kipper is a male yorkie, 11 pound, neutered. He has some special needs and would be best placed in a home with adults. He also needs someone who can afford his medical. He has dermatological problems and has a hard time keeping hair on his poor skin. If I do not let his flea meds lapse, he does well. But if I let even a few days go by, he starts licking his skin until it is raw. I usually keep a light shirt or sweater on him. He is a nervous little guy. He came from another home where he must've been teased. He doesn't like anyone touching his face and grooming him is difficult. He is a sweet, sweet dog, though. One on one he is amazing. He will sit on your lap and let you pet and scratch. He is so sweet, but I need someone who can do a better job with him and give him what he needs to improve his quality of life. I will NOT allow him to go to a shelter. I will screen anyone who takes him to make sure he is placed in the best possible home. I know I am supposed to charge a re-homing fee. He will come with his crate, which he loves, and was over $100. Adoption fee: $150 (includes crate)
The other dog that needs a home is CJ.
CJ is a 7 month old, male, chorkie. His mom is a yorkie and dad is a chihuahua. CJ had some medical issues at 12 weeks and so we kept him and nursed him back to health. He is a happy, healthy, bouncy little guy. He weighs 8 pounds. He has not had anymore health issues. He had been dropped by a child and put on rimadal (sp), which caused paralysis. Once the medication was changed he quickly recovered. I can no longer sell him at full price because of his past medical history, but I do believe he will make someone very happy. He LOVES kids and attention. Adoption fee: $50
Both dogs are located on the Treasure Coast of Florida (central/east).
