About Jazzy

Yorkie
Age: Senior
Sex: Male

11/4/18 New update on Jazzy: 11 year old male purebred Silky Terrier, about 10 pounds. He is completely blind but he gets around just fine. Owner surrender. Jazzy is a sweet senior looking for someone committed to giving him a permanent home. He still has energy for walks and soft toys with squeakers. Often he will stash a pile of toys on a favorite bed. Out on a leash or around the home where he knows the layout you might not even notice he is completely blind. This cuddle bug is happiest when curled up next to a human. Jazzy's ideal home would be one where he could also sleep with his human or humans. At only 10 lbs, he does not take up a lot of space. When it comes to people, Jazzy loves everyone, men, women, and children. Jazzy does best with either female dogs or other males who are non-dominant. When he hears a cat he just knows they are up to no good and barks at them, so a household without cats is best. He is very good about using the dog door at his foster home, with the downside that sometimes he forgets to bring his toys back inside. Smidget Rescue has had Jazzy treated for severe dry eye and been told he had previous nerve damage which cost him his eyesight. He will need an adopter who is able to continue with treatment by a vision specialist a few times a year and continue to provide the eye drops twice a day to alleviate the painful dry eye. He will need this treatment for the rest of his life. Jazzy will also need continued dentals, and regular appointments with the groomer. Jazzy is an 11 year old male purebred Yorkie. He weighs about 7 pounds. He has some sight impairment, but he gets around just fine. Owner surrender. Adoption contract and fee applies. All adoptable dogs can be met at adoption events hosted every weekend. For a list of scheduled events go to: https://www.facebook.com/SmidgetRescue/events . Smidget Rescue is not a shelter, and dogs cannot be seen at the Rescue location. All dogs are fostered throughout the Puget Sound area and are brought to the events where they can be met by prospective adopters. Additional pictures of adoptable dogs can be seen at: https://www.facebook.com/SmidgetRescue/photos_stream?tab=photos_albums. All adoptable dogs are spayed or neutered at 6 months of age or older, and always before being placed in their new homes. APPLICATIONS CAN BE OBTAINED BY EMAIL ONLY. Adoption process includes application, meet & greet, home visit and reference check. Email Jamie at [email protected] or click on the CONTACT link on this page. Notice: We do not ship dogs out of state. If you live within a five-hour radius of Seattle, WA, (such as Portland, Vancouver B.C., etc.), we can arrange for a home visit. If your home seems like a great fit for the dog you would like to adopt, you must then drive to meet the dog at one of our weekend events or at the fosters home.
