About Korah

Meet Korah, a petite 5-year-old Yorkshire Terrier ready for a fresh start. Weighing only 5 pounds, Korah’s beginning has not been the easiest—she was found alone and frightened, likely abandoned after being used for breeding. Despite the rough start, she's making progress, learning that people can be gentle and safe. Korah is spayed, up to date on vaccines, and has a microchip. She uses puppy pads reliably and is learning to go outdoors, though her tiny size means she should never be left outside alone. A patient home is key, as she initially acts skittish, but once settled, her gentle personality starts to show. Because Korah is so small and a bit timid, she’d do best either in a quiet home with older children or with someone retired and home often—someone who can help her build confidence and feel secure. She gets along with other dogs and cats, and is tolerant of children, but loud or boisterous homes won’t be a fit. Korah spent years caring for others. Now, it’s her turn to be nurtured. As a Gemini (born early June), Korah naturally adapts to new routines once trust is built. They are ready to love you; are you ready to apply?
