Kendi (4 yrs old) was purchased from a reputable Yorkie breeder in North GA. We've had him since he was 8 wks old. He has been well cared for and loved ever since.
Kendi is mild-mannered, affectionate, playful and smart. His personality matches the energy of his surroundings. He gets along with children, adults, and the elderly, making him a great companion for a variety of households.
Kendi is house-trained (even rings a bell on the door to go outside); playful but calm (loves his duck toy, tennis ball, and the occasional car ride); likes the outdoors (walks, relaxing in the grass, and sunbathing in a shaded area); enjoys special treats (pup cups and CFA nuggets - very rare treats); and has a routine (eats at 7am and 8pm and sleeps in his pen overnight).
We're looking for a loving home that can give him the attention and affection he deserves. Unfortunately, our busy schedule and travel make it difficult to give him the consistent care he's used to.
