Hey there, Lady-At-The-Computer! Here I am! Just the sweetest girl you have been looking for. I am a gorgeous Yorkie; just a tad more voluptuous than most because I haven't had a chance to get out for a good walk very often. I need to get more exercise so that I can lose a few of these excess pounds - you understand, I am sure. I love my new foster home and my step dog. I even like the cat - we all get along well. I had a bath the other day and did just fine. My foster mom is going to take me to the doggie beauty shop to have me beautified. I have a few mats and tangles. I enjoy my new foster home as I sleep by my foster families' feet or lay on the sofa and watch t.v. GO Steelers!!! The other place I enjoy laying is a big fluffy pillow. I am used to an older lady who was taken to a nursing home - leaving me home alone for 3 days. It was awful! I am doing very well here but gee, I would love to come to your home and snuggle. I am, afterall, a Yorkie. I am in Hamburg, PA - near Allentown, PA. Call my foster mom and ask for me - Penny. I really want to come home now. I am the dog you would want if you want an easy, snuggler dog. Please give me a chance to come home.

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.
