Geneva will be available for adoption after her liver shunt surgery.
She is 17 months old and weighs 4 pounds.
Her adoption fee is $1,000.00.
Geneva is a sweet, adorable, lovable little Yorke girl. She’s 17 months old and weighs 4 pounds. She likes to run through the house at top speed and is also happy and content to lay on your lap for a belly rub. She’s quick to alert us if a package is delivered or if we have visitors. She’s a very finicky eater but she needs to put on some weight. Our challenge is to find a healthy balanced food she will eat consistently. For now we’re happy she eats chicken or turkey baby food or boiled chicken breast and we supplement with nutritional gel.
Update 1/27/2023: We have the results from all of Geneva's tests and she does have a repairable shunt. Her surgery is scheduled for Wednesday, February 22nd.
Update 2/24/2023: Geneva had her surgery Wednesday afternoon, and it went very well! She had the liver shunt repaired, two bladder stones removed, a spay, 7 baby teeth removed and a microchip inserted!!! Wow she had the works! Even so, shortly after surgery, Geneva was awake, alert and sitting up in her crate waiting for more kisses and cuddles from the hospital staff!
Geneva is staying with Bonnie in Northampton, PA.

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.
