Sweet Pico is a shy little Yorkie Poodle mix with a tender heart and a quiet longing to feel safe. Life has taught him to be cautious, and when he’s unsure, his instinct is to tuck himself away. But give him a soft voice, a baby talk, and patience… and you’ll see something truly special. Pico will slowly come out on his own, head lowered, tail wagging gently, his way of bravely trying again.
At just one year old and 7 pounds, Pico is still forming his view of the world. He doesn’t need pressure or expectations, just reassurance, consistency, and kindness. A home with dog experience would be his best match, with someone willing to move at his pace and help him build confidence one loving moment at a time. In the right environment, Pico will blossom into a devoted companion who trusts deeply because he was given the chance to feel secure. Then more of Pico's jovial charm will take over!
Pico is hypoallergenic and will need regular monthly grooming to keep his coat healthy and comfortable. More than anything, he needs a family who understands that healing happens gently, and that trust, once earned, is a beautiful gift. If your heart has room for patience, compassion, and quiet victories, Pico may be the little soul meant to grow beside you.

*All dogs in the care of Get a Life Pet Rescue live in loving foster homes while waiting for their perfect match. They don't live in cages or crates (unless there is a medical reason to do so). They are treated as family pets while in our care. * All dogs in our care are fed premium brand holistic food as well as supplements and vitamins specific to each dog's needs. We don't buy inexpensive bulk dry kibble; our rescues are fed premium wet food diets as part of a comprehensive rehabilitation program to ensure maximum health. .*All of our rescues receive complete quality vetting, including full dental cleaning with pre-op bloodwork, spay/neuter, vaccines, and grooming. Dogs in need of specialized medicine will be seen by specialists, such as full cardiac workups, ophthalmologist visits, and all suspicious lumps and bumps are biopsied, and every medical need is transparent to potential adopters. *Once you adopt from Get a Life Pet Rescue, you become part of our compassionate family, and we are here for you if a problem with your precious dog arises.
