About Lincoln

Meet Lincoln, an adorable Yorkshire Terrier who’s around 2 years old. This sweet boy weighs approximately 12 lbs and is a gentle soul who has adjusted well to his new surroundings after the passing of his previous owner. Lincoln is a quiet dog who enjoys being brushed and appreciates belly rubs rather than being a lap dog. Although he has shown some interest in playing, he seems to prefer companionship to toys. Lincoln is good with other dogs, particularly with the chihuahua in his foster home, but we can't confirm how he might do with children or cats. He’ll need access to a fenced yard, as he enjoys running outside but is learning to respond when called back inside. While he’s mostly house trained, he will use a puppy pad when necessary. After being neutered soon, Lincoln will be ready for adoption! If you’re interested in welcoming this lovable pup into your home and giving him the attention he craves, reach out to Shamrock Pet Foundation Inc. in Louisville, KY to start the adoption process.
