Sweet and spunky Mickey is estimated to have been born around 01/12 weighs approximately 5 lbs, and we believe is a Long-Haired Chi/Yorkshire Terrier mix pup. He was a stray that ended up in the Garland shelter and his owners never came to get him, so DFW Pup Patrol stepped up to rescue him since he had an obvious skin condition. We found he had contracted a non-contagious common yeast skin infection and he is currently being treated successfully. Treatment consists of a medicated shampoo once a week. Eventually this can be discontinued when the condition is gone.
Little Mickey gets along with other dogs of all sizes and cats also. He is housetrained as long as he is given access to the outside several times a day and after meals. He is not an avid player, does not wrestle with the other dogs, nor is he enthusiastic about playing ball. He is very much a companion dog who likes to be near his humans. He is not a picky eater; however, he has a big appetite for his size eating twice a day. He doesn't chew on things that he shouldn't and he walks well on a leash. Mickey likes to sleep on the bed with his humans or in a bed on the floor near their bed. He doesn't do well confined in a crate for any period of time, so if he is to be crated he will need time and patience helping him to feel comfortable in one. He is a very happy boy with loads of personality who is just a joy to have around.
