🐶 Meet Sheldon – The Ball-Chasing, Bed-Snuggling Companion of Your Dreams!

Sheldon is a gorgeous 7-year-old Yorkshire Terrier who is looking for his brand-new beginning because his family is relocating and sadly cannot take him along. Located in Evander, Mpumalanga, this handsome boy is a wonderful blend of active fun and deep affection. Weighing between 5-7kg, Sheldon is a healthy, happy, and incredibly well-rounded little doggy who is ready to steal your heart!

If you love interactive playtime, Sheldon is your perfect match. His absolute favorite game in the world is playing catch with a ball, and he will happily keep you entertained for hours. Once playtime is over, he transforms into the ultimate cuddle bug. Sheldon’s favorite sleeping spot is right on the bed with his humans, nestled up close where he feels safe and cherished. He also enjoys going for walks, though he can get a bit excited and pull on his leash, so he would love a patient owner to help him practice his leash manners.

Sheldon is highly social and gets along beautifully with almost everyone. He is generally good with children, smart enough to gently move away if play gets a bit too rough, and has successfully lived with cats before. He does bark to alert you when people or other dogs walk past the house, but he is not an excessive barker. Because lightning and firecrackers make him nervous, he will need a family who will reassure him and keep him safe and cozy indoors during loud storms.
