Miss Lily Rose, aka Rosie, is a joy to have around! She looks especially pretty with her new hairdo! Every evening we all go Miss Lily Rose, aka Rosie, is a joy to have around! She looks especially pretty with her new hairdo! Every evening we all go for a walk after dinner. I often harness and leash the boys and Rosie and they hang around for a few more minutes as we get ready to head out. Rosie will pick up her leash in her mouth as if to say, “I’m ready!” Sometimes she will pick up one of the boys’ leashes as if to say, “Here, I’ll take this one! Let’s go, already!”
Rosie is now getting into her crate by herself when we all head up to bed. Why not? It’s very cushy with her bed, a SAYR fleece blanket, and a stuffed animal inside . She is not quite at the point where she doesn’t feel she needs to get up every time I do! That will come, but for now , she doesn’t want to miss out on anything! I will say that when we all settle down, she does, too.
One very important thing must be said, Lily Rose’s forever family must absolutely commit to taking her to a cardiologist for a check up every 6 months. Her present cardiologist hopes this will become a once a year event at some point. She has the energy and endurance of a young pup, which she is, but she needs to have these check ups! Although she does have a congenital heart defect, all her measurements show Lily Rose is currently at low risk for clinical signs of heart disease.” She can set her own exercise limits. The cardiologist said all yorkie hearts show up large on x-rays, but her heart is a good size, basically, everything is functioning well with Lily Rose!
I can definitely say she gets along with other dogs! She has become one of the pack. When the boys were at the groomer today, she worried about them and kept looking for them. She was very glad to have them back in the fold.
Lily Rose is staying with Robin in Chesterfield, VA.

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.
