ZICO was surrendered to the rescue through no fault of his own and searching for his forever family. He’s neutered, vaccinated including his rabies shot, microchipped and been deemed a healthy boy by his vet. Don’t let his small size fool you as he loves to be active and be out and about on walks in the neighbourhood and hikes on the trails. Although he’s an energetic little guy he also likes to snuggle up and be a lap pup but this will only happen if he’s been tired out from his long walks or he’s had a very active day. 
ZICO is crate trained and sleeps soundly in it at night. He’s also housetrained and will run to the door when he needs to go outside for bathroom. He does really well on the long walks around the lake front and he can do an hour walk no problem. He hasn’t been socialized with other animals at all and will bark and carry on when he sees a big dog on his walk but seems to be fine meeting with smaller ones. He doesn’t appear to like cats at all and will just bark at them so we are recommending he not be in a home with cats at all. He was just at the groomers and he did really well getting his face and chest trimmed up but when it came to the rest of his body he didn’t seem to enjoy it as much so he ended up having a muzzle on so his groom could be finished off. We are definitely recommending that he be muzzled for his future grooming needs. 

ZICO’s ideal home is one that is active but quiet. He needs his long walks and hikes to burn off his Yorkie energy. He wants to be part of a family that will take him everywhere with them including family adventures. He’s just a young guy and he knows there’s lots he wants to do and see still. He has lots of typical Yorkie behaviour so his new owner does need to be breed experienced. He’s a destructor of toys and only the toughest, hardiest ones survive his company such as Kong toys and very sturdy plastic ones including Nyla bones. Due to him not being in a home with children or ever having met any we are recommending they be 12 years of age and up. He’s also needs a home with a fenced yard so he can run around and play safely outside. 
If ZICO sounds like he’ll fit in with your family and lifestyle then please submit an adoption application to meet him.
