Jaxen is a 10-month-old sweetheart who came from a loving home that, sadly, could no longer keep him due to health issues. He’s a happy, playful pup with all the joyful energy you’d expect from a young dog — but he also knows how to slow down and snuggle up for a good cuddle.
Jaxen is fully housebroken, eats and sleeps like a champ, and walks beautifully on leash. He’s recently started engaging his older Sheepadoodle foster brother in games of chase and play, and it’s a joy to watch! Like many young pups, Jaxen loves to chew, but he’s easily redirected to his toys when he finds something off-limits.
This affectionate, well-mannered boy has “good dog” written all over him — and we suspect he might just steal his foster family’s hearts completely!
Jaxen is staying with Allyson in Nutley, NJ.

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.
