Once upon a time...
    A very small, sweet little dog was the loving, constant companion of an older lady who adored her very much.  As time passed, the older lady grew sicker and weaker. She eventually had to be hospitalized for weeks at a time, leaving her little dog home alone.

At last, the time came when the old lady did not come back at all. She was admitted to a nursing home, unable to communicate or care for herself. That left Suzie to live all by herself. Thankfully, a kind neighbor fed the dog and walked her whenever possible. But Suzie grieved for her mom and missed the company of people.

The neighbor took Suzie to the local shelter who had no cages for her. The final solution was in sight when one shelter worker recommended Save A Yorkie Rescue. One call ... and 6 hours later... Suzie is in the arms of an experienced, loving foster mom. She's had a bath, a warm dinner and is meeting her step sister and step brother. Suzie likes the idea of friends.

Suzie is a sweet, dear little girl who loves to walk and just lives to go for car rides. She is even tempered, good with everyone - she is a treasure. She will be a great companion for anyone who wants a sweetheart of their own.  She is fostering in Reading, PA. Call Pat Klunk for more information. God bless you Mr. Parrish - for calling Save A Yorkie Rescue. You made life better for one small dog.

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.
