Rayna

Puppies less than 16 weeks old cannot be placed in apartment complexes as they cannot go out in communal areas until about 10 days after their last vaccine at 16 weeks.

Rayna needs:

  • No apartment/condo living (I’m not fully vaccinated)
  • Professional grooming every 4-6 weeks
  • Active Adult home everyone must be sure footed
  • Children need to be gentle and at least 8 years of age
  • Indoor Puppy pen or play area when unsupervised
  • Someone home most of the day to continue housetraining


Hi I’m Rayna, I am a female Yorkie/poodle mix. I am 10 weeks old and just over 4 pounds as of 3/26/26. I have beautiful soft wavy tan/reddish fur. I will need to be professionally groomed every 4 to 6 weeks to keep me happy, healthy and looking my best so plan on that expense. An active adult home with everyone steady on their feet so no one gets hurt (I do get underfoot). Someone home most of the day to continue my housetraining would be best for me. Children in my new home must be gentle like me and at least 8 years old. I am a feisty little girl and require a lot of training. I need to get use to wearing my collar/tags and then leash/harness training. My foster mom takes me outside in the secure fenced yard to let me run around and that helps with my potty skills. I have a long  way to go before I am fully housetrained. I have been introduced to a crate. I would need to be crated or in an indoor play area at night and if you have to leave the house for a short time. I do ride well crated in the car for short rides. My foster mom also has me hang out in an indoor playpen when she’s too busy to keep an eye on me to keep me safe.

So there you have it – puppies like me are cute and cuddly but plan on a lot of hard work especially during the puppy stage. I am not allowed  in public or common areas (no apartments/condo living) as it’s not safe for me because I’m not fully vaccinated. I will be due for my 3rd round of puppy vaccines the week of April 6th to the 10th. 3 to 4 weeks after I’ll need my 4th round and also at 16 weeks my rabies vaccine which my forever family will be responsible for.

I am spayed, microchipped and up to date on my preventions. My adoption fee is $175. If you have the time, patience, energy and can commit to giving me the best home ever for the rest of my life contact my friends at SBRET.COM, and apply online and ask for Rayna and we can meet up real soon.
