Steve's Story

Meet Steve <br/>Location: Wilmington, DE<br/>Breed: Yorkshire Terrier (Yorkie)<br/>Age: 13 years young (but don’t tell him that!)<br/>Weight: 6.5 lbs<br/><br/>Please read the bio in full for answers to your questions. In the event you have a question that is not covered in the bio, please email info@seniordoghaven.org. If interested in adopting, please complete an adoption application which can be found at https://seniordoghaven.org/adoption-process/.<br/><br/>Please note that because all our dogs live in foster homes, we are unable to set up meetings with a dog unless we have a completed adoption application on file. Adoptions must be within a reasonable distance from Wilmington, Delaware for our volunteers to be able to conduct an in-person home visit.<br/><br/>Steve is a spunky little gentleman who’s proving that age is just a number! Though technically a senior, this pint-sized Yorkie has the pep and charm of a much younger pup. He loves his walks, meeting new people (and dogs!), and showing off his adorable zoomies whenever he finds a good patch of grass.<br/><br/>When Steve first came into rescue, he was in rough shape—bald patches, irritated skin, and a lingering cough from a URI. After some TLC, a much-needed dental and neuter, and plenty of love, he’s looking and feeling so much better. His skin continues to heal beautifully, and his personality is starting to shine through—playful, curious, and full of gentle sass.<br/><br/>Steve is fully housebroken, great on a leash, and enjoys being near his people. He’s independent when it comes to nap time (prefers his “spot” on the sofa), but he’ll melt for a good belly rub. He’s not a fan of eggs (weird, right?), but he’s all about adventure—whether it’s a stroll around the block or cruising in his pet cart.<br/><br/>Steve would thrive in a calmer home with adults or kids 6+. A fenced yard would be ideal for his zoomies, and another friendly dog companion would be a bonus! He does best with minimal stairs, as steep ones aren’t his thing. He’s not been tested with cats.<br/><br/>Steve is the perfect mix of spunky and sweet—a little guy who’s ready to spend his golden years loved, pampered, and part of the family.<br/><br/>Ready to give this tiny gentleman the retirement home he deserves? Submit an application today — your heart might just grow a few sizes!
