Sam needs your patience...

Sam I Am - but not with green eggs and ham... PLEASE READ MY BIO BEFORE YOU ASK FOR ME. I am not adoptable. I am broken...

...scared I am, timid, unsure..  I am good most of the time..loving, sweet, happy to sit on your lap...until - I get scared - a strange move, a quick move and I can't help it - I snap. I wasn't socialized as a puppy should be. I wasn't taken to obedience classes. I didn't learn that hands are good and the givers of good things. I grew up not knowing any differently. So now I am broken. I can't go to a home. I can't be adopted. I can be dangerous.

Don't let this happen to YOUR dog.  Socialize your puppy. Walk your puppy. Get your dog out to meet people and dogs when it is young. Teach your dog to trust you. Obedience classes are so good for dogs.

If you want to help Sam I Am, and dogs like him, considering sponsoring him so that we can pay for training for dogs like him. Some we may be able to save - with training and discipline, we might be able to place other dogs who have aggressive issues.

Someone did not socialize Sam well or pay attention to him - which is very hard
 on a people-loving-dog like a Yorkie. He spent a lot of my time in a crate - but no more.
Please help us save the broken dogs like Sam I Am.

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.
