Hot Coco is available for adoption.

He is 1 year old and weighs 5 lbs.

His adoption fee is $650.00.

Hot Coco is a loyal and sweet companion. He's attached to his foster family, and often falls asleep next to or on top of them! He gets very excited when he sees his leash and, for such a little guy, is happy to go on long walks. He has adjusted very well to his foster home and routine. He waits to go outside for potty breaks and it's been awhile since he had an accident inside. We are working on commands and have mastered "sit" so far. He is eager to please so we are certain he will learn more over time. Coco has become much more playful as he's gotten to know and trust his foster family, though he is not overly energetic. When he's not walking with his foster parents or playing with his foster brother, he's content to lounge on the couch, gaze out the window, and watch the world go by. He follows his foster brother everywhere and relies on him for social cues and playtime, so we are looking for a home where he will have a canine companion. He also needs someone who has the energy to take him on multiple walks a day and the patience to socialize him. He is shy upon meeting new people and dogs and will bark at them (but not all). Coco recently had his neuter, dental, and microchip placed and is recovering very well from surgery. He'll be ready to go to his forever home in a couple of weeks!

Hot Coco is staying with Lauren in Summit, NJ.

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.
