Meet Gabriella, one of the Philly 5. Gabriella is a 8-month-old puppy who weighs approximately 5 pounds. She is still adjusting to her surroundings and may be shy at first, but with patience and a gentle approach, her sweet and affectionate nature quickly becomes evident. She enjoys being held, likes short walks, and feels most secure when close to her person. She is currently working on potty training, is comfortable sleeping in a crate, and sleeps through the night.
Gabriella would do best in a calm, loving home where she can continue to gain confidence and thrive. Gabriella is up to date on all her vaccinations and is spayed and microchipped.
“Gabriella has successfully completed her training and testing and demonstrated positive interactions with other dogs. While she remains somewhat reserved, she has shown consistent progress and continues to improve each day. She enjoys spending time with her person, going for short walks, and observing her surroundings from a window or back door.”
If you have any questions about this tiny pup, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Gabriella is staying with Maribel in Havertown, 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.
