Meet Cookie: Sugar

Adoption Fee: $650   Sugar is a 5 year old Yorkie x Maltese mix who came from the shelter with her four pals. The Christmas Cookie pups are as cute as can be and can’t wait to find their forever homes this holiday season. Sugar has a lighter shedding coat, so she may be an option for those with light allergies.    Below is a note from Sugar’s foster. “Sugar is a cuddly, adorable, and loving pup. She is the kind of dog who takes a few days to get used to you, but once she decides you are her people she loves you forever and ever. She loves to be held and cuddled, which means she is an amazing companion for snuggling on the couch and watching Christmas movies! Looking for a travel companion to see the world with? This 7 pound pup is ready as long as you are in the driver’s seat! Sugar wakes up around 7 AM and has her breakfast. She spends her morning curled up in her bed or exploring the yard. She loves to burrow under her blankets with only the tip of her tail poking out, which is absolutely adorable. She has not gone on a walk yet, as the world outside is a bit scary for her still, but she is learning how to get used to the leash and is making progress every day! At night after dinner, she curls up and hangs out with us as we unwind from the day. She sleeps through the night in her crate.  Sugar would do well with a confident dog who can help her gain confidence. She would be okay with older kids, or those who are willing to give her some time to settle in. Sugar is fully house trained and crate trained, and loves spending time in her crate!”   Sugar is only an option for those who have owned a dog in the past five years. We will be looking for a home who has had experience with shyer dogs. Kids in the home should be over the age of 10.
