TESS - YORKSHIRE TERRIER YORKIE / MALTESE / MIXED (LONG COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie / Maltese / Mixed (long coat). Adoption Fee: 250. **Bonded to Lucy** *This animal is a part of our “Seniors for Seniors” program where we offer senior adopters an opportunity to adopt an eligible pet at a discounted fee.* Tess is a sweet mellow gal who sleeps a lot of the day and the rest of the day enjoys watching the world go by. When she comes in from outside, will quickly turn around for a treat of pupperoni, and she will bark at you until you give her treat. She is so expressive with her eyes-she is so cute! Tess is part of a bonded pair and needs to be adopted with her sister Lucy. Click here to learn more about her. Adopting a senior dog is like getting a vintage car – it comes with character, a few extra quirks, and might need a bit more maintenance. Expect occasional tune ups at the vet for oil changes (aka meds), and embrace the fact that those 'normal lumps and bumps' are just part of the well-earned charm package! Ruff Start will share all known health information with adopters and rec ommendations to keep your senior dog in top shape. Tess is from an owner surrender. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.

If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.
