About Winky

Meet Winky, a delightful Yorkshire Terrier who has blossomed into a charming companion. At just five pounds, she’s an eight-year-old bundle of sweetness and sass, ready to embark on her new adventure after spending her formative years in a puppy mill. Winky is currently exploring a world filled with affection, gentle handling, and the little routines that make life enjoyable. She's making remarkable progress and is perfectly content being a couch potato, relishing her time with her people. While she's a low-key pup, Winky does enjoy voicing her thoughts, especially when new visitors arrive. As she continues to master her leash skills, Winky prefers a pet sling for her outings. A home without stairs or a family willing to carry her up and down would be ideal. Routine is important for her, so someone home more often would help her maintain her potty schedule. This little lady is friendly with dogs, cats, and children but thrives best in a home with older kids or pets that respect her petite size. Winky is learning about her own space as well, so her forever family will need to be aware of her placement. With no known medical issues and all her vet care up to date, Winky is eager to find a loving home with a soft couch and maybe a Yorkie friend to help her continue discovering life's pleasures. Apply today and give this princess a chance to shine!
