About Remy

Meet Remy, a delightful 5-year-old, 7-pound Yorkshire Terrier full of personality. This little lady arrived at ACCT Philly as a matted stray, but she has since transformed into a charming companion. Remy enjoys walks, car rides, and loves her foster family, including two dog-savvy cats and a large dog who have helped her adjust. Remy is house trained and knows how to sit, making her an affectionate little companion. However, she can be a feisty one at the vet or during grooming, requiring sedated appointments for her safety. While she prefers a home without young children, she’d be just fine with teens. Remy has come a long way and is ready to find someone who appreciates her spicy attitude and brings out her loving side. Don’t wait; this sweet girl is ready to meet her forever family!
