ELSBETH - YORKSHIRE TERRIER YORKIE / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie / Mixed (medium coat). Thank you for stopping by to see me! Please fill out an application to set up a private meeting. Elsbeth truly is a gem. From the moment she arrived in her foster home, she settled in as though she had always belonged there. She quickly became friends with the resident dogs, started showering her foster family with kisses, and hasn’t looked back since. This sweet girl is equal parts playful companion and devoted cuddle buddy. She loves being with her people and has bonded closely with her foster family, happily following them from room to room as their loyal little shadow. In fact, you’ll often find yourself checking where you step because Elsbeth is never far behind! Elsbeth has a wonderfully friendly personality and genuinely enjoys meeting new people. Visitors are greeted with an enthusiastic wagging tail and a warm welcome. She has an easygoing, affectionate nature that makes her a joy to be around and helps her fit in just about anywhere. When she’s not busy collecting pets and snuggles, Elsbeth can usually be found playing with toys. She’s been carefully testing out all the options in her foster home and has decided that small tennis balls are among her favorites. She loves to play, explore, and keep herself entertained, but she’s equally happy curling up beside her people for some quality cuddle time. Food and treats are another one of Elsbeth’s great loves. She never misses a meal and is always excited when snack time rolls around. Her eagerness to learn, combined with her love of treats, has helped her pick up several commands already, including sit, come, outside, go potty, and leave it. She does not require a fenced yard, but does need daily exercise do get her zoomies out. Elsbeth gets along beautifully with other dogs and blended seamlessly into her foster family’s pack. She is playful, affectionate, even-tempered, and enjoys the company of both canine and human friends. As a young dog, she is still putting the finishing touches on her potty training, but she is doing wonderfully and is very close to being fully reliable when kept on a consistent schedule. Elsbeth is the complete package—sweet, loving, playful, and eager to please. Whether she’s chasing a tennis ball, following you around the house, greeting new friends, or curling up for snuggles, she brings joy everywhere she goes. She’s ready to find a family of her own and become someone’s constant companion and best friend. Please note that some of our dogs are obtained from shelters, surrendered to our care, or released from breeders. Each animal's bio is based on our experience of the animal within our care, an educated guess based on physical characteristics, temperament and information shared. Each dog receives basic grooming when coming into rescue, but for some dogs they have not received grooming attention until recently and grooming may be required shortly after adoption. This will be at the adopter’s expense, so we encourage you to research the breed and be prepared for grooming expenses. Underdog cannot guarantee hypoallergenic or non-shedding qualities of any dogs in our rescue. Some of the animals come from situations where they are lacking experience in a home and confidence in humans. In turn, they require another companion dog and/or a fenced in yard in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit. Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home. ***Be sure to check your spam/junk folder as sometimes our emails end up there*** If you have other questions about me you can email Underdog Rescue at <inquiriesunderdogrescuemn> ADOPTION EVENTS: Adoption events are updated at the top of each dogs animals' as their foster home signs up. Check back for updates on which events they will be attending. If an event is not listed within their bio above, the animal is not planning to attend. Please understand that all of our pets are in volunteer foster homes and sometimes "life" happens and the foster family cannot make it to their scheduled adoption event. If you are traveling from a far distance to meet a specific animal, please understand we cannot guarantee event attendance. We recommend filling out an application and we will set up a private appointment. Private appointments are only scheduled after an application is submitted and approved. ADOPTION PROCEDURE: The first step in our process is to complete an online adoption application on our website: .underdogrescuemn/adoptionprocess/ Note: In most circumstances Underdog Rescue will only adopt within 60 miles of Minneapolis, MN. All of our foster animals can be seen by appointment with an approved adoption application. Contact us at .underdogrescuemn/contact-us/ if you have further questions. FOSTER CARE: All of our animals are fostered in individual homes or doggie daycare facilities. While they are in our care, they are part of our families and given lots of love. We work on training, crate-training and socialization prior to adoption, but each bio is written by the foster as they see them, in their home. Each animal's behavior is evaluated and we have a sense of its temperament and personality, but it cannot be guaranteed. We look for adopters who will give each animal the wonderful life and permanent home that he or she deserves in time and with patience. If you have an interest and ability to be a foster home, please visit our website .underdogrescuemn/foster-applications and fill out a foster application. NUTRITION: Nutrition is vital to the rehabilitation and life-long health of our pets. All of our foster animals are fed a premium diet such as NutriSource, Canidae, Orijen, Nature's Variety, Fromm, Pure Vita, Stella and Chewy's, Primal, or balanced raw diet. All adopters are required to continue providing premium diets for the life of the animal. YOU CAN HELP: Not able to foster or adopt right now? Please consider sponsoring an Underdog.
