Sweet little Scrapi is a teeny tiny black and tan 15 yr old Yorkshire terrier. Weighing just 2kg, he is the dearest little dog, now looking for a loving home in his final years, by Chilterns Dog Rescue Society He lived with his owner since he was a puppy, and was much loved. Sadly, now due to a series of devastating family events, the family have had to make the difficult decision to part with Scrapi.
Scrapi maybe small in stature, but he is big in personality. His rehoming needs are simple, just someone that is kind and gentle, who can keep him company and give him the love and care he needs to enjoy the rest of his life. Scrapi is pretty mobile for his age, and still enjoys a couple of 15 mins walks a day, although he would prefer to be cuddled and carried !
Scrapi has been used to two children (aged 11 and 4) growing up around him, and whilst he would be happy meeting visiting children that are respectful of his age, it is felt that a busy household with children would be too overwhelming for him. He would love a small secure garden that he could explore in his own time, and the freedom to sniff and enjoy himself. He is friendly with unfamiliar people, and will just sleep calmly, if you leave him alone for shopping trips etc.
Scrapi is good with cats and dogs, so could be rehomed as an only dog, or with others. However due to his size and age, other dogs would need to be quieter and calm.
He has no known major health concerns, and his coat and skin have both improved, since his stay in rescue. He is quite deaf, and while he can see, he has significant age related changes to both eyes.
Through his life, he has had a lot of dental treatment and had most of his teeth removed some years ago. This has not impacted upon his ability to eat, and he loves his food ! He does though like his face wiped after each meal, as he is a little messy ! His remaining tooth is now in poor condition, and this will be removed before he leaves rescue.
This sweet boy still has so much to give, and all he is looking for is a comfortable, warm and loving home, that understands the needs of an older dog. If this is you, or you require any further information, please contact Chilterns Dog Rescue Society below.
