Notes from Yorkie Rescue Houston

Surrendered with her Fur-Sister, Ari, this sweet girl can see shadows and movement, but we don't believe she can see much else. She is slowly learning our environment and we believe these girls can be separated. She is becoming more independent and soloing more frequently.

Absolutely NO inground pools or stairs for this girl's forever home.

She does quite well with our doggie door. She is not a fan of men.
