About Tiny Senior Yorkies

Meet Tiny Senior Yorkies, three charming little fellows looking for their forever homes. Celebrating Adopt a Senior Month, this trio includes Chubby Buddy, Maximum Baldness, and Parker, each bringing their own unique quirks and personalities. Chubby Buddy is a sweet 10-pound cuddle bug, about a decade old. He’s the calmest little dude, dog-friendly, and wee wee pad trained, getting ready for his new family after a medical checkup. Then there’s Maximum Baldness, at a petite 5.5 pounds. Recently shaved due to matting and some skin issues, he’s got a funny walk but a delightful spirit. Despite his challenges, he gets along well with other small dogs. Last but not least is Parker, the mellowest of the bunch. At 9 years old, he has some health challenges, including a collapsing trachea and kidney issues, requiring a quiet home and gentle care. He loves to cuddle and enjoys squeaky toys, although he can’t play for too long without getting winded. These little seniors are not just pets; they are treasured companions ready to enrich your life. Adopting them comes with an adoption fee of $200, supporting their medical care. If you’re interested in adopting or meeting any of these lovable Yorkies, please reach out to njwoof@cs.com. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
