Hello and great to read from you regarding my bab ,I am just left with Princess girl Yorkie Puppy for adoption. She is still available and needs a good home to rescue her now and for ever. Below are some important information you will need to know about Princess. Princess's Info's

Breed: Pure Bred Yorkshire Terrier.
Gender: Female
Pet name: Princess
Age: 10 week(s), 3 day(s)
Size at Maturity: Small
Potential: Perfect Pet
Present Weight: 1.4lbs
Weight at Maturity: 3-3.5lbs

Temperament & Personality: Perfect temperament and great with kids and other pets..

I am giving Princess away because I just relocated to the Central Great Lake Region of Glasgow Scotland for my new job and when I arrived the new area two days ago, I noticed that my working hours are not good enough for me to keep Princess with me, I am always very busy at work and have less time to spend with the puppy. My apartment here does not accept pets and animals so I cannot keep Princess with me as its highly restricted in my apartment. That's, she's always lonely.She is free so you will be paying only for her flight re-activation ticket of 120euros to get over to you and you will be paying the money directly to the airport . I am much more concern with the type of home she is going to . she will be coming with;

# Health certificate.
# 1 year health guarantee
# Complete medical record
# Crate
# Playing toys
# And a puppy kit starter.

Getting a good home for Princess is the most essential thing I have ever wanted for her. So i have some few questions for you which I hope you get back to me with the answers sincerely. I just want to make sure she is getting into the right home.

Some Question For You
Hope you don't mind?
Where about are you located?
Why do you need Princess ?
How soon do you need her?
Do you have any ex perience in raising a Yorkie Puppy (or pets in general)?
Do you presently have kids and other pets?
Are you morally and financially prepared for Princess ?
Who will look after the puppy when you are not around?
A name and contact number? Would be appreciated.

Hope you don't mind getting back to me with the answers as soo n as possible. You may get back for photos of Princess and feel free to ask any questions regarding the rescuing of Princess.

Thanks and hope to read from you real soon.

Hello,
Thanks for your mail and the interest you have in adopting these my
babies.I've got both male and female capuchin monkey by name (Della)
and Ray.To know more about them,they weighs 4 pounds and will grow to
weigh about 14 pounds.They are very affectionate, loving and
respectful and are fond of our three children and gets along with all
other household pets.They are diaper trained and well tamed.They are
diaper trained and leash trained and very loving and wears clothes
and likes to lay around and watch TV and take naps with you.They are
so friendly and have docile temperament.Della and Ray are up to date
on all their shots and have never been sick.They even sleep with us at
night and loves being around kids.They shall be coming along all their
health papers and records of shots till date.Della and Ray are so use
to their names that they smile each time you call their name .They
have been raised in our loving environment with lots of love and care
that i would want them to go only to an approved home or to some one
who will give them the best of love and care thus treating them as
King and Queen.They shall not only be a friend but also a good
family companions.
Well the reason why i'm giving them out to ,a new home is because i'm
relocating to the states with my family and can't possibly take Della
and Ray along as it might be too expensive for us to transport them to
the US with us.So please if you and your family know you can assure
us of providing a loving home for them,then that would be very great of you.So
to proceed i will like you to answer the below questions,
Where are you located......................?
How many do you want.........................?
Do you have kids...................?
Do you have other monkeys.......................?
Have you had a monkey before....................?
Do you and your family promise to provide me with monthly pics if you
have any of them or both.......?
So if you are sure to take proper care of them then Get back to me
as soon as possible.
Thanks.
