Rudy was born December, 2024 and is a recent addition to the Yorkshire Terrier breed where both parents have a recessive piebald gene, called Biewer (pronounced beaver). He rarely barks, is a low-key companion and is almost potty trained on pads after 10 days with me. Unfortunately, I have fallen and must have hip replacement surgery meaning I'll no longer be able to take care of him as he deserves. He comes with a crate, car carrier, sling carrier and assortment of toys and puzzles.
