About Troy

Meet Troy! This lovable Yorkshire Terrier is an 8-year-old boy who came to us after our veterinarian recognized that he needed medical attention. Troy underwent surgery for a perianal gland adenoma, but a biopsy showed it was benign. Now, he’s happy, healthy, and ready to find his forever home! Troy enjoys spending quality time with his favorite humans and going on long walks. He is crate trained and housebroken, making him an ideal companion. While he can be selective about his dog friends, he seems more comfortable with smaller dogs. A proper introduction is recommended. If you think Troy could be the perfect addition to your family, submit an adoption application online today or visit us during our operational hours to meet him! Let’s help this sweet senior gentleman find the loving home he deserves!
