There she goes! There she goes! That's our Phoebe - what a sweetie! She can give you a high five just as pretty as you please. She is coming out of her shell slowly but is so sweet she just blends with all the other Yorkies.

Phoebe just lost the only home she has ever known.  To a 10 month old baby who tormented her unceasingly.  Not Phoebe's fault. But it hurts just the same.

Phoebe is a beautiful little girl who is just 10 years old. Not old at all for a Yorkie. She is a sweet, good girl who will be a wonderful dog for someone who needs an easy dog, a loving dog. Her foster mom reports that she is even good with housetraining - a miracle by itself!

She deserves the finest home we can find for her. Are you worthy of such a treasure?

If only a puppy will do, you are in the wrong place. We have Yorkies who need homes and if you are looking to save one of them - here she is. A dear little girl.

Call Vera and let her know that you are ready to take Phoebe home for good.

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.
