This sweet one-year-old boy has been through more than he should have. He was left outside in an uncovered crate in direct sunlight, and when the last rainstorm hit, Animal Control was called. His owner ultimately relinquished him, saying they no longer wanted him. Despite everything, Yoshi is such a sweet and gentle boy. He can be a little timid with new people, but once he feels safe, his personality starts to shine. Yoshi absolutely loves other dogs and enjoys having canine friends around. He loves his walks, but he’s definitely a “stop and smell everything” kind of guy. He also loves his playpen, which has become his little safe space where he feels comfortable and secure. Yoshi is neutered, dog-friendly, and ready for a patient family who will give him the time and love he deserves.
🧠 Temperament
Despite everything, Yoshi is such a sweet and gentle boy. Bold and deeply bonded to one or two people.
🎾 Exercise
He loves his walks, but he’s definitely a “stop and smell everything” kind of guy. Low — short walks and indoor play are plenty.
✂️ Grooming
Easy for both smooth and long coats. Dental care is the real priority; small breeds are prone to tooth disease.
🏙️ In an LA apartment
He was left outside in an uncovered crate in direct sunlight, and when the last rainstorm hit, Animal Control was called. Extremely apartment-friendly and easy to carry on the subway.
