About Andy

Meet Andy, a charming senior Yorkie looking for a warm place to settle down. At approximately 14 to 16 years old, Andy was surrendered by his owner who could no longer care for him. This sweet boy is now on the hunt for a loving home where he can bask in affection during his golden years. Andy is a real people person who simply seeks a soft lap to curl up in. He’s neutered and up to date on vaccinations. Although he has an enlarged heart and one remaining tooth, he still enjoys crunching on his dry kibble. His ideal home would feature a small yard for exploration, a devoted companion to follow, a cozy couch for snuggles, and a warm bed next to his favorite human. Although adopting a senior dog can be daunting with potential unknowns, Andy deserves to live out his remaining days surrounded by love and comfort. His gentle nature and little bursts of energy will surely enchant anyone fortunate enough to meet him. If you’re ready to offer Andy a forever home and the love he longs for, please don’t hesitate. His time may be limited, but his capacity for love is endless. Let’s help Andy find his forever lap where he can be adored. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
