How could he be Worthless?  He is the prettiest little Yorkie guy you will ever see! What a find. What a catch. 

Worthless is not his real name but no one has applied for this sweetheart in 2 months. His foster mom loves him and calls him "Auggie".  maybe she just likes how it sounds because she says "I love you Auggie Doggie" a lot! 

No one is sure how old Worthless is or what his life was like before a lady found him at shelter in Philly.  She was rescuing big dogs, but just couldn't leave him there.  So, she took him home and called Save A Yorkie Rescue.  He was so sick!  We didn't think he was going to make it, but he fought really hard.

He's feeling good now.   He even eats kibble.  He has three foster brothers that he gets along with, sometimes they even snuggle together. 

People say he is very handsome.  His hair is silver and blond ("the kind you can't get out of a bottle!") and he's a little on the slim side at about 9 lbs.  He likes riding in cars and going for walks (but not when it's too cold) and he does potty outside.  He sleeps in the bed with his mom and fur brothers, but he's okay sleeping in my own bed, too.  

He is an easy going guy and will be happy as long as has somebody who will tell him "I love you Auggie Doggie" for the rest of my life.

Auggie is settling in with his foster mom in Wilmington, DE.  You may be the lucky one to bring this little sweetheart home. He really is the dearest dog you could ever meet.

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.
