April Duke - ok, it is a ridiculous name - his real name is just Duke but we have to make this one unique.  

Dukey is a doll. He is half brother to April Daisy and the two make a complete set of love dogs.

Both are picture perfect cute. But the best part is how loving they are. They seek you out and jump for your lap. They shower you with kisses and are happiest being held. If you are looking for two lap dogs who just want YOU - here they are.  The lovingest pair we have met in a long long time.  

They had such a great time running in our back yard - they were so happy running and playing with our dogs. This is it folks.  A pair of his and hers love bundles.  

He is just 7 years old and 5 pounds.  Let us get him a nice hair cut and a microchip and the two of them will be ready to come and share your lap.  Put your application in now.  

Duke is vacationing in Reading, PA with Dan and Cheryl.  These two will be gone in a day or two - so don't wait.

KEEP THESE FACTS IN MIND:
1. Yorkies do not usually get along well with small children and can be injured by small children, even ones who love them. Be aware of this and keep them apart. 2. Yorkies can be very difficult (nearly impossible) to housebreak. If you are gone for more than 3 hours at a time, the dog will have to have access to wee wee pads, or need someone to stop in to let him out to potty.
3. We almost NEVER get a puppy (less than one year old) in Yorkie Rescue. If only a puppy will do, check the Yorkshire Terrier Club of America website for a recommended breeder - never buy over the Internet, or from a newspaper ad or a petstore. The heartache you save will be immeasureable.
4. There is no such thing as a "teacup" Yorkie, so don't be misled by such a description. LEARN about the breed BEFORE you decide to adopt.
5. You will need to make arrangements to drive and meet the dog at the foster home which can be in New Jersey, western PA, Maryland,  etc. The dog's biography lists where the dog is fostering. We want you to meet the dog with your family and your dog, if you have one. This is a requirement for adoption.

WHAT IS THE ADOPTION FEE?
Adoption donations generally vary from dog to dog, it depends on the health, the age and the size of the dog.

Young Yorkies will have a higher adoption donation since they are the most highly sought after and they help to cover the costs of the older dogs who have a harder time finding a loving home. It is sad but true that people overwhelming demand very young dogs when they would be infinitely happier with a mellow adult. 

 

 ADOPTION AREA

Save A Yorkie Rescue prefers to adopt only in the PA, NJ, western NY, DE, MD, VA, some CT area's. If you are in the NYC area or near Long Island, there is a Yorkie Rescue closer to you. 

Be aware that you will be asked to drive to meet and pick up your dog.
