Why do you get so MANY many Yorkies into rescue, people ask?  Do you REALLY get Yorkies into rescue, others ask?  Who needs Yorkie Rescue?? No one gives up a Yorkie! Are you kidding?! 

In the past 7 years we have taken in and placed over 1400 Yorkies!! 1400!!!!

WHY?  Mostly for the reason you see below...
***************************************************
Archie is an owner surrender because they no longer had time for him. (THAT is the main excuse for giving away a Yorkie but children and babies are a very close second.)

To think these people have kids- what if they didn't have time for them?! 

ARCHIE was neutered a few days ago because his busy family didn't have time to do that either!  Well, it's a good thing Save A Yorkie Rescue is here to give Archie a second chance at life with a new wonderful family. 

He is a young, playful boy looking for an active, understanding, experienced family who has time for a puppy.  He is super friendly and is in need of a fun family who will take him on many long walks even hiking! He loves going for car rides- please! please! please!  He will hop right into the car if you let him! 

Archie is good with kids and great with other dogs.  If you want a four legged companion to love and play with, then Archie is your dog! 

Please put in an application for Archie before you seriously inquire about him.  He is vacationing in eastern Long Island.  Get your application in quick before this adorable, playful boy is adopted! If no answer, call Anais 201-906-0412.

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.
