Hi my name is Riley, I am just eight months old  and I weigh only 7 pounds - I am right on the money for a Yorkie!

  I am quite handsome if I say so myself and wait until I get a little grooming.  I need a home who wants a shadow, and a lap warmer - that's my specialty. 

I have a very gentle personality, I love to give kisses, and share almost all my toys.  My favorite is a polar bear that I had to steal back and hide from my foster sister. 

I am a very loving dog and will seriously consider all qualified applicants for my forever home. So call my foster folks today to get all the details. 
 
PS  It is MANDATORY that I attend a group obedience class so that I learn all about the world and how to handle it. If you can't or don't want to go to obedience classes, please consider one of the older dogs on our website.  

PPS  We want you to meet Riley and make sure he is just the Yorkie for you so be prepared to drive to Erie, PA to meet and pick him up.

Lastly, there will be many applications for our dear little Riley. But we have so few for Tic Tac. If you want a small happy dog, consider Leo. Thank you.

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.
