About Brady

Brady is a 10-year-old purebred Yorkshire Terrier who has always known a life of dedicated care. As a senior, he remains healthy, with a history of routine wellness exams, updated vaccines, recent blood work, and even dental cleaning as of July. His grooming schedule is regular—every six weeks—so he always looks sharp. Brady is fully house trained and accustomed to the comforts of home. Despite all his positives, he is very territorial around young children and has shown aggression towards the household’s toddler, so he must be placed in an adult-only home. Brady thrives as the only pet and does not get along with other dogs, preferring to be the sole focus of your affection. He’s gentle with adults and has never had aggression issues with people besides his experience with the child. Brady comes with pet insurance, and his family has taken exceptional care of him, making this decision very difficult. He’s looking for a quiet, child-free home where he can be your one and only companion. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
