And now, a few words from me:

Boy was I lucky when some kind person found me walking the street of Toronto all alone and took me to Toronto Animal Services.   The staff there were really nice but felt I would do much better in a foster home, rather than in a kennel with all those big dogs so I was lucky enough to get taken in by Loyal Rescue. 

I’ve not had a lot of training in my short life and still get scared a lot so I am hoping a nice person with lots of spare time and patience can give me the guidance I want.  Sometimes I bark when I am scared but I’m trying hard to stop that.  
And now a few words from my foster mom:
Dexter has settled in very well to our home and gets along well with our other two small dogs.  He’s usually a little scared at first when meeting new dogs and people so Dexters new family will need to have experience dealing with fearful dogs, particularly with Yorkie experience.  Apart from that he is doing great. 

From the photos you can see he truly is an adorable little guy, however his forever home should keep in mind even though he is a small dog, it is necessary to give him some boundaries and walks at least 3 x daily.   He is about 95% house trained.
