Willy is a typical puppy....he loves to play. He likes to play ball and knows to bring the ball back. He also pushes his toys with his nose, pounces on the toy and rolls over, just to get up and do it all over again. It is adorable!
Willy is eating two times a day and loves working for snacks. We are working on "Sit" and "Come". When I have to leave the house and come back home, Willie leaps from the floor in joy. He gets all excited and cannot wait for me to pick him up so he can give me kisses. He also loves belly rubs.
I have placed a ottoman in front of the window and Willy likes to sit there and watch the world go by. When he sees someone or something, he sometimes will have a low growl or bark. Willy is still timid and startles easily with loud noises. He responds to "quiet" which seems to stop the behavior.
Willy loves to go for a walk. He does very well on the leash, walking to the left of you and staying close. I have let him walk ahead of me, and if he is 2 feet in front of me, he will turn around and look to see where I am, then join me on my left side. He has some trouble on the leash going in and out of the door. I have to coax him both ways, but we are working on getting better.
Willy is playing, taking walks, and rough housing with his foster brother, Barney. Oh, and he loves going for a ride! We go for road trips once a week.
Willy is a sweet little gem. Willey is safe and happy - he's exploring his new foster home with his new best buddy, Barney. He's a baby! He was surrendered to rescue because his family has medical issues they are dealing with and they wanted him to get the attention and commitment he needs with a new family. He is a handsome Yorkie puppy who is a little timid but give him time to figure things out. Here is what he needs and what we are looking for: A quiet home - he is timid and scared of loud noises... so we want a settled, quiet home. But he is a puppy so we want someone who is active, walks every day, and wants to wear this puppy out. He needs attention, training and time with his people. So if you are gone more than 5 hours at a time, this probably wouldn't be the best for Willey. An experienced Yorkie owner would be just the thing. Willey is a perfect size. Strong, beautiful, young - he will blossom into a wonderful Yorkie with the right family. So we are looking for YOU. He is vacationing in central PA with Penny. More pictures and information to come.
