Where do our dogs come from? Most of our dogs come from ordinary people who can no longer care for their Yorkie for whatever reason. Sometimes they come as strays. Occasionally, local animal shelters who consider rescue organizations like ours, a "last resort", call us
to take the Yorkies that no one else will consider adopting - the blind, the elderly, the diabetic. This means that we are called upon to rescue the dog before it is scheduled to be euthanized. Because the shelters are often times very full, the amount of time an unadoptable dog has before being euthanized ranges from 3 to 10 days.
Foster Homes After the dogs are rescued we place them in foster homes until we can find them a permanent home. Because we have already placed them in a home environment, we can tell you a little about their habits
and house manners--something you will not know if you adopt from a shelter or kennel.
Will the dog visit the vet before I adopt it?
Our dogs are fully vetted before being placed. This includes spay/neuter, heartworm test, deworming and vaccinations. The dogs are bathed and groomed. At times, we may rescue a dog which has severe hair loss, a broken leg, is heartworm positive, or has another serious problem.
We make sure the dog receives proper veterinary care before it is placed.
Can I make a Donation or Sponsor a dog without Adopting? YES!!! YES!! Anyone can make a donation or sponsor a dog without any commitment to adopt or foster a dog. We are 501(c)(3) charity and all donations are tax deducted. Corporate sponsorship is also welcome. For example, Kraft Foods has donated in the past.
