She came in the rain...sprinkles

Our precious Sprinkle! Truly, she should be called "Downpour" as Sprinkle was abandoned in a cold rain, at night, outside a veterinary office. Luckily, she was discovered cowering beside the building and taken to a nearby shelter. She was traumatized and bleeding from her left ear. Our good Shelter friends then placed her in our care and we will deliver for Sprinkle. She has already had her vaccinations and tests and health assessment. Hopefully, a dental in ten days as she is on antibiotics to help her prepare for anesthesia for her dental and also aid the healing of her ear. When asked about an approximate age, her vet said "Old. Very, very old".


And now for the happy part: Sprinkle can see well enough to get around nicely as she walks with her slow, yet steady, stroll. A bit hard of hearing, she is completely house trained, sleeps soundly all night in a roomy crate with no messes and no requests to potty at 3:00 a.m. Wonderful! She eats her meals and relates perfectly with the other dogs in the household.


An adoption for Sprinkle would be rescue in the most pure form. We need a person with a huge heart, gentle nature, and a desire to give rather than to receive. Until this person is found, she will be a cherished and honored SAYRescue girl.

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.
