Buttin is available for adoption. WOOF-WOOF NEWS REPORT -- If you are looking for a loving, energetic dog companion, I'm your guy, I'm Buttin! I'm looking for my forever home. I can be an only dog or part of a pack. By the way, I am a healthy 8 year-old dude and only have to take heartworm and flea and tick preventatives. On June 15, I'll have my teeth cleaned and be neutered. Once I'm healed from surgery, it will be time to go to a forever family.
Here are few highlights from my week with Foster Mom and Dad.
Foster Mom tells me I am doing G-R-E-A-T on my walks. Going out the door I'm still excited but am sitting nicely while my leash is attached. This week I decided that pulling on the leash was not cool. I've found that I get to go farther and smell more new smells when I don't pull. On the way home, for the most part I trot along right next to Foster Mom. I keep showing my grown-up human foster sister how much I love her by jumping into her arms and my human foster brother by begging for lap time when he gets home from work. When I get excited, I can sit up on my hind legs and sometimes I stand straight up and dance on them as well. For the most part, I've just been keeping cool in the house or in a chair on the covered patio where I can survey the yard. Oh, and one day I was in a hurry to get out to the yard and jumped right over my Foster Brother Gismo the long way from tail to head. Boy was he surprised! Just so you know, I'm a supersized Yorkie weighing 21 pounds, am 16 inches long and when seated I measure about 18 inches. Dr. Jillian says I'm a good weight. At heart though, I think I'm only 7 pounds as I love to sit in laps and be petted. I don't care if the lap belongs to a guy or a gal. All laps are equally wonderful! This week Foster Mom and Dad had to leave me in the house alone with my Foster Brothers while they cleaned the garage. None of us really liked that and we barked, but after a while we stopped and laid down for a nap. I think I like having a human at home with me most of the time, but I guess being alone is ok for a little bit. I'm keeping an eye on things in Fairfax, VA. Call or email my Foster Mom (703-503-7247) and she'll tell you more about me! If you want to know how to adopt me or any of my dog buddies in foster care, the application process and all things Save-A-Yorkie Rescue can be found at saveayorkierescue.org. Buttin is staying with Julia in Fairfax, VA.

OR mail your check or money order to YOUR generosity is appreciated! 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.
