About Yogi

Meet Yogi! This charming 12-year-old Chihuahua weighs just 6 lbs. With his sweet demeanor, Yogi is a delightful little companion who loves cuddles, walks, and occasionally tearing apart a stuffed toy. He's fairly sociable and enjoys short walks, though he doesn't require extensive exercise. While he might be shy at first, he warms up quickly and is soon following you around like a shadow. Yogi gets along well with other pets; he currently lives happily with a small dog and a cat, although he mostly ignores the cat's attempts to engage. Calm and quiet, he can join you on outings like trivia nights or simply relax at home in his pen. While he sleeps in his pen at night, he would much prefer to cuddle up with you. Potty training is still a work in progress, but he does tolerate belly bands well. Neutered and up to date on vaccinations, Yogi is ready to find his forever home. If you're looking for a gentle, playful little shadow to brighten your days, Yogi would love to meet you. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
