Before you can adopt, you must be approved!Find out more on our website: www.saveayorkierescue.orgBefore you inquire, read below about this dog to make sure it is the right match for you. If the dog is listed on petfinder, he/she is still available.Say "Hi" to the little Charlee man. He is a little guy with lots of life experience. When his lifetime owner went to heaven, little Charlee was left in care of her attorney who gave him to her friend. A vacation to CA left him lost in a fox hole where he was found missing lots of hair (thanks to the fleas). He didn't like the west coast! Back in the east, Charlee suffered another loss when his new owner had a stroke and laid for four days before someone came. Charlee was picked up by another friend who kept him in a cage in a veterinary office then gave him to us. Charlee is a feisty and energetic little man. His full coat was matted pretty bad so he got a good bath and hair cut - talk about extreme makeover! He has new foster brothers who he likes to sleep with during the day and has learned to LOVE being held and having his belly rubbed.

Yorkies do not get along well with small children. 2. Yorkies are very difficult (nearly impossible) to housebreak. 3. You will NOT find a puppy in Yorkie Rescue. 4. It is rare for us to get a FEMALE into rescue. 5. We do not adopt to anyone over the age of 75. 6. There is no such thing as a tea cup Yorkie so don't be misled by such a description. LEARN about the breed BEFORE you adopt. Adoption donations range from $150-$450 depending on the health, age and size of the dog. ALL money goes to pay the vet bills of our dogs - the younger, healthier ones pay for the old and sick. We prefer homes in the PA and NJ areas but do consider homes in the nearby surrounding states.

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.
