Do you have a “need to nurture?” Would you enjoy caring for a
senior princess with a few challenges? Take a peek at this little
gem. Meet Rhae- she is an 11 year old, 5 pound Yorkshire
terrier. She has vision and hearing deficits- although she can
see and hear. She has had extensive dental work done, so she
doesn’t have many teeth left, but eats canned food like a
champ. She sometimes has trouble controlling her bladder so
her foster mom has had great success with Rhae wearing doggy
diapers while in the house. She is not high energy, she takes
lots of naps- but loves to walk around a fenced in yard to enjoy
the sunshine and smells. She would prefer not to be in a crate.
She likes brief snuggles but prefers to just nap on her own in
her bed. She would do best in a home with another small dog,
or as an only dog. She has not been cat tested. Rhae is a super
sweet little lady who has had a rough start. She is looking
forward to her best life with a kind, patient, and caring person.
If you feel that you are that person, please apply for little Rhae
