🐾 About Lamar
Meet Lamar — a scruffy sweetheart with a heart of gold and a coat that tells the story of a gentle spirit ready to shine. This two-year-old male Yorkie mix arrived at the Babylon Animal Shelter on August 25, 2025, and he’s been patiently waiting for a second chance ever since.
Lamar may look like a little lion with that wavy mane and soulful eyes, but he’s a loyal lapdog at heart. Quiet, observant, and gentle, Lamar is the perfect sidekick for anyone looking for a cuddle buddy or walking companion with a low-key vibe. He’s just the right size for any home — apartment, house, or anything in between.
