Notes: This info is current as of 3-25-05. Please read all info below before inquiring. Adoption requirements are based on the best interest of the dog and no exceptions will be made. No phone calls please. Tressa was fortunate enough to escape a puppy mill when it was shut down. Because puppy mill requirements are so lax anyway, we know this one had to be very bad to cause the removal of the dogs. She came in very dirty and matted, but we were able to save some of her coat. Tressa is very shy and unsocialized because of her background. She will hide her head when you reach for her, but she does not bite. She will need a quiet home with someone who is home much of the time to give her the attention she deserves. She would be most comfortable in a home that has another small dog for companionship or if she was adopted with one of her Yorkie friends. She is just learning how to be a dog. She will need a home with someone who is very experienced with tiny dogs and has the patience and understanding to make her feel secure. Yorkies are notorious for never being fully house trained and so her new home must be very tolerant of accidents. She did come in with lice and will not be available for adoption until about the middle of April after she has received 3 more treatment baths. It will also depend on when she is ready emotionally. She did lose some teeth during her dental. She is very tiny and will require a home that has had experience with little dogs. She could be easily hurt and will need a home that does not have children under 13 years old. Other dogs in the home must be similar in size. A fenced yard is required and it must be very tight and secure because she could sneak out of the tiniest open space. No electric type fences. All pets currently in the home must be up to date with annual vet care, altered, and kept on heartworm prevention. All inquiries must include your vets name & number for verification before you can receive an application. At this time, all applications will be snail mailed to your home address. No shipping. You must be within driving distance to adopt and willing to submit to a home visit. No phone calls please. Thank-you for your interest in my rescues.
