If you walk into my house and find every dog toy scattered across the family room, it’s safe to assume that Andee is nearby! He absolutely loves toys and while his favorite activity is playing catch, he will entertain himself with a different toy if no one is interested in playing with him.
This week, Andee joined his foster siblings at morning play group. Monday was his first day and he was not intimidated by anyone – not even the dogs that are more than twice his size. He made a lot of new friends. Of course, Tucker kept an eye on his little brother while Rosie pretended that she didn’t know either of them. On Wednesday, there was a new treat puzzle at play group and everyone got a turn hunting for the treats. Andee came in fourth place, so we definitely need more practice with treat puzzles.
Andee continues to be a good eater and sleeper. He gobbles up his food and patiently waits for Rosie to finish and then he checks her bowl to see if she left any morsels behind for him to clean up.
Next week, we’ll schedule a check up with the vet but so far, Andee seems like the perfect little boy!
Andee is staying with Maryann in Ambler, 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.
