7/2/25: My name is Cleo, and I consider myself quite the sweetheart—according to my foster mom and dad! I used to live happily with my mom who loved me very much, but her circumstances changed. She made the tough decision to help me find a calmer, more stable forever home. After doing lots of research, she knew that Yorkie Haven Rescue was the best place to help me find that perfect home.
A little about me: the idea of “terrible twos”? Totally false in my case! I do have plenty of energy and love to chase squirrels, but I’m well-behaved and mind my manners. I patiently wait my turn to eat with my foster siblings—though I might bounce a little because mealtime is exciting! I’m quick to come in and out of the doggie door, love going for walks, and enjoy playing with my foster brother. My foster sister can be a bit grumpy, but when she’s not in the mood, I happily go back to squirrel hunting—those speedy critters are tough to catch!
I adore my foster mom and dad equally and love cuddling on the couch with either of them. At bedtime, I happily climb my special stairs to snuggle with mom after giving foster dad some kisses so he doesn’t feel left out.
When I first arrived at my foster home, I visited the vet and was told I’m in fabulous shape—that’s no surprise! I’m all up-to-date on my vaccinations and ready to go to my forever home.
Since my foster parents are home most of the day, I don’t spend much time alone, which I really enjoy. When my humans come home after being out, I eagerly greet them, wagging my tail and soaking up their attention—just like my foster siblings do. I’ve grown used to being loved on and hope to find a family who’ll do the same for me.
Household noises don’t bother me much, although I am known to attack the vacuum cleaner to keep everyone safe. I tend to have a confident and playful personality, but loud noises, like the garbage truck, definitely make me seek a safe spot while we’re outside. If I hear one, my foster mom simply scoops me up for a cozy snuggle, and I’m just fine. I’m a lover, not a fighter, and I’ll sometimes join in if the other dogs start barking at something—they’re quite the vocal bunch!
Now that you know all about me, why not submit an application? Yorkie Haven Rescue would love to get to know you and see if we’d be a perfect match. I’ll be waiting—and I’m confident someone special is out there, just looking for a wonderful girl like me!
