Female Dog, Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie
Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie (Medium Coat)
Description:
Hazel is an 7 year old, 10 lb Yorkshire Terrier mix with a big personality wrapped in a tiny, adorable package! Quick Facts: Name: Hazel Breed: Yorkshire Terrier (Yorkie) Mix Age: 7 years old Weight: 10 lbs. House-Trained: Yes, with consistency Crate-Trained: Yes Good with Dogs: Yes, needs a playful sibling or two in her forever home! Good with Cats: Yes, but cautious Good with Kids: Yes Energy Level: High (playful) Fence Required: A secure fence is preferred as she is a little “escape artist”! Dog's Location: Greensboro, NC About Hazel’s Breed: Our best guess is that Hazel is a Yorkshire Terrier (Yorkie) mixed breed. Yorkshire Terrier mixes are bright, affectionate, and full of classic terrier spirit. They often blend the Yorkie’s loving, people oriented nature with a bit of extra spunk or sturdiness from their mix, making them delightful little companions who enjoy being part of the action. Most Yorkie mixes are loyal, cuddly, and happiest when they can stick close to their humans, but they also carry that signature terrier curiosity — always ready to explore, investigate, and play. Their ideal home is one that offers structure, companionship, and an understanding of terrier tendencies. Yorkie mixes thrive with people who appreciate their mix of sweetness and sass, can provide consistent routines, and enjoy having a small dog who wants to be involved in daily life. They do well with gentle children, and many enjoy having other dogs around, especially if they share similar energy levels. Because terriers can be clever and determined, secure environments, patient training, and plenty of affection help them feel confident and content. What to Love about Hazel: Hazel is sweet, loving, and happiest when she’s part of a pack — this girl needs doggie siblings in her forever home who match her playful terrier energy. She is affectionate, people oriented, and especially drawn to feminine energy; her foster mom believes her hesitation around men stems from her past. With time, patience, and gentle consistency, she may learn to trust again. Hazel is a classic terrier “Houdini,” so she must be monitored closely outdoors and always have a secure fence or be leashed — she loves to explore and will absolutely take advantage of an escape opportunity. She’s potty trained with consistent outings, crate trained, and very cuddly, but she does have some separation anxiety and may chew if left alone too long. She loves her food and prefers to eat separately from her doggie siblings so she doesn’t have to share. Hazel is wonderful with kids of all ages, loves other dogs, and is cautiously curious around cats with slow introductions. She has tons of playful energy, enjoys her walks, and is still learning her leash manners. Hazel would thrive with an experienced owner who understands terrier behavior, can keep her safely contained, and wants a loving, snuggly, spirited little companion. With the right home, Hazel will blossom into the sweetest, happiest girl!
