do you have Yorkie experience?

Lucky lucky you! You found Sebastian!  He is a wonderful dog - I know, I picked him up myself and held him tenderly, wrapped in an old blankey while he watched his family get in their car and disappear. He couldn't believe it! They were leaving - without him!!! They were the only family he had ever had. He loved all of them very very much. He cried and whined so when they got in the car. He pawed at the window and sobbed like a baby. How could I explain that they didn't think they could take care of him any more?

He sat on my lap, almost stunned by his loss... he didn't know what to do.  But he settled down and right before I handed over to his new foster mom, he leaned over and kissed my cheek. He forgave me for taking him away from his loved ones. What a gentle heart.

Did you already pass him by?  What a shame! He really is a WONDERFUL dog! Please re-consider and give him a chance!

Sweet Sebastian -a darling dog! A year ago he had a livershunt. That was taken care of then.  He has been fine for a year but showed some puzzling symptoms... We had him re-checked and placed him on a low proteon diet which he is eating just fine. He takes some medication and it is working great!

He needs someone who will walk him often, and give him lots of attention.  He is playing like a puppy and is so young, a younger couple would be a good match. Do you have experience with a Yorkie? What if he started chewing on something that was inappropriate - what would you do?

He is only 3 years old and about 6 pounds. A perfect age and size for a Yorkie.

Sweet Sebastian is vacationing near Lancaster, PA with Carol. Get your application in now for Sweet Sebastian.

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.
