Meet Pearl and CoCo. You might think Pearl is the creamy colored Poodle/Yorkie mix and CoCo has the black coat, but you would be wrong.
Pearl, like the rare black pearl, is a “queen of gems” and she is appropriately named. She adores being given the royal treatment and lots of attention. CoCo is a light, milky off-white cream color that gives him a gentle, soothing appearance and he will be happy to help calm you down after a busy day. Both are seniors at 11 years old and came to Second Chance when their owners lost their home.
They are a Poodle/Yorkie mix but there is probably more Poodle in them, based on their builds and curly coats. Pearl and CoCo are very social and friendly. They are housebroken and crate trained. If you are looking for companion dogs, these two would fill that job perfectly.
They each have been fixed and currently awaiting a dental cleaning and a vet update. It would be wonderful if they could be adopted into the same family, but it is not required. But, they would do best in a home with another canine friend.
