Senora Vittoria is available for adoption with her sister Sienna, they are a bonded pair.

She is 4 years old and weighs 9 lbs.

Their adoption fee is $900.00 for the pair.

Vittoria
 is four years old and extra sweet. She was rescued from a shelter in Brooklyn NY.    

She will come to greet her human with wagging tail and smile on her face. She has an undocked tail...a real plus for a yorkie!

She will not hesitate to interrupt a nap to jump in your lap if offered.  She has obviously been loved in a past life.  Any comfy bed is welcomed. 

She eats well and we are working on her outdoor bathroom skills which are improving daily.

We are getting close to a haircut and bath for her first grooming...but... her long flowing hair is so beautiful, one might be inclined to let it grow.

Vittoria loves any doggy bed or crate offered...but will immediately leave either for a human lap.

She has a healthy appetite, which may be worth watching.

At 9 lbs she is a very sweet and friendly girl.

Update: Fostered in Connecticut, she developed pneumonia within a day of coming home. Currently on medication and will be available once cleared.

Señora Vittoria is staying with Maryann and Michael in New Canaan, CT.

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.
