Remmy is available for adoption.

Remmy is 10 years old and weighs 11 pounds.

His adoption fee is $350.00.

Update:
Remy has made quite the progress in his first full week from surgery. His hair is starting to grow back soft. He started getting brushed this week with a baby brush. Almost all of the dandruff is gone now. His personality has started to appear as he assimilates into his foster home. There is a playfulness in Remy that belies his 10 years. He is strong on his remaining 3 legs now. He will very soon be ready for a harness and leash as his incision is healing fabulously and he moves much quicker now. He loves to go outside and roam among the flowers.  Remy will get up on his hind legs and beg for attention. He absolutely adores attention and treats! He is looking for someone to be his person.  He would make an excellent companion. 

Week 1
Meet Remmy! This is the toughest sweet guy you will ever meet. Remmy recently had surgery to remove deeply matted hair from all over his body and a subsequent front leg amputation due to an necrotic injury. Every day he is getting stronger and adapting to the use of 3 legs. Through the whole experience he has remained very sweet and loving. He loves to give kisses and he loves, loves, loves
treats! Remmy enjoys being cuddled and taken outside to soak up the sun. He has to be covered up until his hair grows back to keep him from getting sunburn. He is currently residing with foster siblings and doesn't mind their barking and chaos.  Remmy would make a wonderful companion to a lucky
adopter!

Remmy is staying with Robyn and her gang in Hollywood, MD.

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.
