Meet Gianna – Medical Pending

Gianna is a sweet, two-year-old pup weighing just 3.4 pounds—well below her healthy range of 5 to 6 pounds. She’s currently on a nutritional plan to help her gain weight, and once she maintains a stable weight, her vet will consider scheduling her spay surgery.

Despite her tiny size, Gianna has a big personality. She’s food aggressive, which we’re actively working on, and she’s extremely skittish—she often backs away when approached and is afraid of people. This stems from her past, where she and four other dogs were left alone for 12 to 16 hours a day with only each other for comfort. Because of this, Gianna must be placed in a home with other dogs to feel safe and supported.

She’s not available for adoption just yet—she’s still medical pending—but she’s making progress every day. Gianna loves to cuddle, especially with her foster sisters, and she wants to be held all the time. She’s learning how to go up and down stairs and enjoys playing with her toys. Her gentle spirit and resilience shine through, and she’s slowly learning that love and safety are here to stay.

Gianna is staying with Linda in Tonawanda, NY.

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.
