Meet Fritz, a 5-pound Yorkie senior with a big heart and the sweetest, easygoing personality. Fritz is calm, gentle, and happiest when being held or curled up in someone’s lap. He’s a true companion dog—quiet, affectionate, and content simply being near his people.

Fritz is friendly with everyone he meets, including kids, adults, dogs, and cats. He doesn’t play much with toys or seek out treats, but he loves cuddling and soaking up attention. His low-energy demeanor makes him perfect for someone seeking a peaceful, loving little shadow.

Why Fritz Is the Ultimate Companion

🐾 Age: Senior | Weight: 5 lbs
❤️ Calm, affectionate, and lap-loving—thrives on close human companionship
🏡 Friendly with people, dogs, and cats—very adaptable to household dynamics
🚶 Walks nicely on leash; doesn’t require a fenced yard—happy with short potty breaks
🛏️ Crate-trained and almost fully potty-trained—thrives on consistent routine
💖 Hypoallergenic and apartment-friendly—ideal for seniors or anyone seeking a gentle companion

What Fritz Is Looking For

✔️ A calm, patient home that can provide lots of love and lap time
✔️ Consistent routine to support potty training and comfort
✔️ Optional: another friendly dog, though he’s happy just with his humans
✔️ Someone prepared for basic grooming and attentive care for a senior Yorkie

Fritz isn’t just looking for a home—he’s looking for a family to cherish him, hold him close, and enjoy quiet, loving companionship every day. Could your lap be his forever spot? 🐾
