he's a senior but acts like a young dog - won't anyone give him a home?

A DOG’S COAT
It might be old, or tattered, or wrinkled, or matted, or even sparse with bald spots. It can be a lovely color or a plain one. What it looks like isn’t important. It’s what it covers that matters.
It covers a loving heart, or a frightened one; it covers a "glad to see you" face; it covers a willing heart that wants to please; it covers a love that you will not believe and cannot fully earn.
It isn’t quite perfect. Yet. It needs a home where someone needs a coat.
When we look past the slight imperfections to the great blessing underneath, then we understand that it’s not the coat that matters. What matters is the fact that it covers a dog. It’s a dog’s coat.
And at your house, you need another coat.

Did you come to this website to save a dog, a Yorkie? Was that your reason to click here?

If so - save a dog - give this old dog a forever home. He deserves it. You want to save a dog. DO IT!  JUST DO IT! Give a dog a home! He has been waiting for months. Don't think someone else will do this. YOU can do it!

A little old man he is.  Sweet and friendly he is.  Loves to eat he does and gets along with dogs and people. He is active, able and willing to keep up with you - don't sell him short.

Just a little guy who wasn't kept clean or fed regularly, he is now in good hands. 

Mickey is shining--he eats like a little race horse and runs like a thoroughbred! His trot is just the cutest thing we have seen in a long time.

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.
