Amazing Grace is available for adoption.

She is 11 years old and weighs 4.5 lbs.

Her adoption fee is $350.00.

One stormy Tuesday evening a 4.5 lb dog made the long trip from Quakertown, PA to my home in Millville NJ.  Amazing Grace walked into our lives a bit shaken and confused and extremely curious.  She was  uprooted from her home, where she was well cared for by the Mother that lived there, along with Mom's Daughter and Son-in-law.   Sadly though, the Mom could no longer care for herself and had to go to assisted living without little Gracie. For three months  Amazing Grace was now being left for 10 hours a day, while daughter and husband worked.   They knew that something had to be done and they are so thankful that they found saveayorkie rescue.

It was late when she got here and when food was offered, she gobbled it right up.  She spent the next hour sniffing me, Allie, and my entire house, all 70 feet of it.  After a few hours it was time for bed and she slept cuddled next to me all night and in the morning waited for me to take her outside.

Today is Friday,  we just came from the vet and Amazing Grace will need to be spayed and given a dental.  She did great in the car and did really well at the vet taking her shots and nail clipping like a trooper. The vet said she was in great shape!  It is such a joy to have this tiny Yorkie in my home and I know it will take all my will power to keep her from entering my heart. 

Amazing Grace is staying with Arlene and Allie in Milville, NJ.

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.
