I have a 7 month old yorkie boy. He loves everyone, wants to sniff and play with every person and every other dog he comes across. He never cowers. I want another one with more of the same temperment.
I inquired about their health and they handed me the personality profile the previous owners filled out. The shelter staff said the people that brought them in got them from a breeder. The profile that the owners filled out checked off that they got both of them from a pet shop. I mentioned that to the shelter worker and she said, very snotty I might add, "Pet shop/breeder, same thing" I said they are not the same thing. I didn't want to get into it with them. The right pooch will come along.  |
Oh how sad, I hope they can find a good home. Remember, dogs in the pound have usually been mistreated, and will come out of their shell once they are in a loving home.
