Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie

Chestertown, MDAvailable for adoption0 views

Small dog, big opinions, and a heart full of love. Teddy Bear is ready to be the king of his very own castle. Meet Teddy Bear!Teddy Bear is a 10-year-old Yorkshire Terrier with a big personality and an even bigger heart. This handsome little guy was found as a stray outside a Walmart in Georgia and eventually made his way to us in need of some serious dental care. After receiving the dental surgery he desperately needed, Teddy Bear is feeling much better and is ready to find a loving forever home of his own.Despite being a senior dog, Teddy Bear still has plenty of spunk left! He enjoys going for walks, playing with squeaky toys, and keeping an eye on everything happening around him. During his time with us, Teddy has shown that he may be small, but he certainly thinks he's mighty.Teddy Bear has been around cats and seemed to do well. He gets excited when he sees them but has not shown any negative reactions. He would also do well with respectful children who understand how to interact with an older dog.When it comes to other dogs, Teddy Bear has made it clear that he would prefer to be the only canine in the home. During his dog assessment, he showed us that he likes having all the attention to himself, so we are looking for a dog-free home where he can truly shine.Currently, Teddy Bear is eating a wet food diet while he continues to recover from his dental procedure. Once he is fully healed, he should be able to enjoy hard food again.If you're looking for a loyal companion with plenty of personality, a playful spirit, and lots of love to give, Teddy Bear may be the perfect match for you! ❤️Teddy Bear's adoption fee is $150, which helps support their medical care and preparation for adoption.Please note: All of our animals are spayed/neutered and up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations. Each pet also receives a behavioral assessment to help us better understand the type of home they may thrive in. However, it’s important to remember that the results may not fully reflect an animal’s true personality, as shelter and foster environments can be stressful. We welcome adopters from out of state to apply! _When it comes to our pets, we're all-inclusive!

We are an open-admission animal shelter, and welcome every animal in need that we can legally accept. As an open-admission shelter, we take in many animals who may not be immediate candidates for adoption. Whenever possible, our foster parents work with these animals to rehabilitate them and qualify them for adoption to good homes. There is no set limit to the length of time an animal can remain in our adoption program. As long as we have space, and the pet appears to be able to maintain good physical and emotional health in our kennel environment (or foster home), the pet will remain in our program. Every animal, however long it remains in our adoption program, is guaranteed a clean, safe, comfortable space, nutritious food and fresh water, medical supervision and, when needed, care and supplies, as well as interaction with volunteers who groom, exercise, and socialize with them. We do our best to move young puppies and kittens and other special-needs animals into foster care, where they remain until they are ready for adoption. We also work with breed-specific groups to find homes for some animals, in order to maintain space within our own shelter. We do everything in our power to avoid the euthanasia of healthy animals, or of animals who can be rehabilitated or go to homes that will provide care for a lifetime. We are able to find new homes for the great majority of our pets and appreciate your continued support as we push towards a low-kill community. To reach this goal, we are working to create not a no-kill shelter, but a low-kill community where all adoptable animals are able to find forever loving homes. These are the steps we are taking to achieve that effect: Maintain a widespread effort to promote spaying and neutering of all companion animals Continually increase the number of shelter animals that are adopted to new homes through our programs. Encourage responsible pet ownership through public-awareness campaigns, humane education programs, and efforts to legally eliminate puppy mills and backyard breeders Supporting pet owners through training classes, counseling, and referrals to outside information sources The Humane Society of Kent County Maryland, Inc is a private, charitable 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. We are not affiliated with any other animal-welfare organization, locally or nationally. We rely entirely on the income from our community and on donations from the public in order to keep our doors open. We invite you to become more involved by becoming a volunteer or a foster parent. See our Programs link for information on how to do this.
