About Demi

Meet Demi. This sweet female Yorkshire Terrier is a senior who is in need of a loving home. She came to our attention through a local shelter that was worried about her wellbeing. At around 10 years old, Demi arrived in rough condition, significantly overweight at 14 lbs and with matted fur. Her ears showed signs of infection and her nails were painfully overgrown. Despite her hardships, Demi remains incredibly sweet and tolerant. She's already adapting to her environment, showcasing her resilience despite possible visual impairment. Demi is friendly and gets along well with cats, dogs, and children. We’re dedicated to ensuring she receives the TLC and medical care she needs. If you're ready to provide Demi the caring home she deserves, complete an adoption application today!
