Colby Yorkshire Terrier Rockville, MD

Look who’s back! It’s our teeny yorkie boy! It's our 15 yr 5 lb Colby Jack . He is back with us due to no fault of his own. Sadly, his very loving owner is facing health issues. We want them to know that they don’t have to worry - we will make sure Mr. Cheese Man lives his best life.From foster mom ~ “This is a sentimental homecoming for us as Colby was our foster when our own dog suddenly got ill and passed away. We also just had all 3 of our fosters adopted within a span of 24 hours, so the timing couldn’t have been better for Colby to be brought back to us." Colby seems to be mostly blind and mostly deaf. Colby will need a very special adopter who understands the needs of a sweet, tiny, senior yorkie boy. If you remember, Colby came to Miri’s after he was dumped at the shelter for starting to pee in the house. Colby, we’ll never let that happen to you again. You’re safe with us as always, housetrained or not.

Update from foster mom: Colby is good at going potty outside but needs to be taken out regularly. He must pee after waking up from a nap but can definitely hold his poop til he gets outside. He is not able to do steps and must be carried. He is deaf and blind, and doesn't mind anyone, but if he bumps into another pet, they may be upset and he cannot defend himself. If he is home alone, his space should be doggy-proofed for a blind dog or he can get stuck
