About Leo & Theo

Meet Leo and Theo, two playful 9-month-old Yorkshire Terrier brothers. These sweet pups have lived a sheltered life, never visiting a vet or exploring the outside world, which means they’re starting from scratch. Proper crate training will help them adjust, as will getting used to harnesses and leashes. They weigh about 6 lbs each and are full of energy, yipping happily for attention. They get along well with other pets and children, making them endearing additions to any family. Previous experience with housebreaking or owning a Yorkie is preferred, as they need someone at home to guide them. They deserve a life free from living in their own mess, and they’re ready for a fresh start. Click apply to start the adoption process.
