Ok, so I know I mad a thread for all the yorkie/yorkie type dogs that I see at Operation Kindness (Carrollton, TX) but this guy has grabbed my heart big time so I figured he needed his own thread.
Winston was pulled from the city shelter- he was a bit of a mess but happy and friendly enough. We are estimating him to be 2 years old. I fell in love with him when I shaved him down- even my own yorkies are not that great for grooming. He just sat there and let me do everything! He didn't put up any fuss and when I was done he gave me kisses
Winston is a playful little guy with a happy little spunk about him, I think he would be great with kids and he is a bigger yorkie- probably 12 pounds(he also needs to gain weight)
His special needs is his hips. He is going to be looked at by the vet Monday and we will know more but for now we are thinking possible hip dysplasia. Hopefully he will not need surgery but he will probably be prone to arthritis later on. If he does need surgery he might need someone to foster him. This is a really sweet dog who deserves a forever home.
Here's some pictures- the first one is when he first came in. I love his one ear folded over!
Here's the website to the shelter he is at:
