About Oliver & Sydney

Meet Oliver & Sydney, two adorable Yorkshire Terriers searching for a loving forever home after the loss of their owner. Oliver, around 12-13 years old, and his 9-year-old companion Sydney are sweet and sociable pups who thrive on attention. They were house trained in their previous home and have quickly adapted to using the dog door here, though some accidents have occasionally occurred during their transition. Both dogs are already spayed and neutered. They will undergo veterinary care, including exams, vaccinations, heartworm testing, dental cleanings, and microchipping soon. The adoption fee for this charming duo is $500, which may vary depending on the cost of their vetting. If you're interested in adopting these lovely companions, please submit an application at Ruby's Rescue and Retreat, Inc and have your references contact us via email. Thank you for considering adopting Oliver & Sydney!
