Hey you; yes you, the one looking at my adorable face. Do you enjoy long walks,
a wonderful bed buddy, and a dog with lots of personality?.... then I may
be the boy for you. Please make sure, however, you read my
entire biography before you contact my foster mom.

Mocha is a lively, energetic, boy who is very willing to please as long as you know who is the boss - YOU! Not him. He needs an experienced handler; one who will be alpha and show Mocha that there is no reason to be fearful. Once you are Alpha, Mocha is a confident, delightful, young man; you couldn’t ask for a better companion! He loves to ride in the car and loves to go on long daily walks. He is living with 3 foster siblings. However, he may be best in a home with no dogs since his demand to play is persistent and can become rough.

Mocha knows basic commands such as sit, stay, lie down, and roll over. We continue to work on “come” (it is the hardest command for a dog to learn), and given Mocha’s unsureness it is the hardest for him too! If you can continue to help Mocha become a confident, fearless boy; and be his alpha, he will thrive in your home and add so much joy to your life.

Please: No home with children!

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.
