Dublin is being fostered in Oakdale, CA and comes from a Yorkshire Terrier/Terrier mix background.

About Dublin

Dublin and his brothers were all born on St. Patrick’s Day, which makes him a Pisces—often said to be imaginative and gentle souls. His mom is a Yorkshire Terrier mix, but dad’s a mystery. What’s certain is Dublin’s lively, playful nature. His favorite pastime right now is romping with his siblings and squeaking his toys. Dublin gets along well with other dogs and does well with children, so he’d fit into a home with kids or pups running around. Potty training is ongoing and will need consistency, but he’s at the age where he picks up routines fast and wants to please. He’s up to date on his age-appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and dewormed. Adoption will be finalized once he’s neutered—just waiting for his appointment. If you’ve got a fenced yard, patience, and a soft spot for spunky pups, this one’s ready to make memories. They are ready to love you; are you ready to apply?
