 Will wonders never cease?  The owners had this dear little girl all of her life. They paid for an operation when she needed a kidney removed. They kept her long gorgeous Yorkie hair clean and silky. But when they decided to travel, they dumped her at a shelter! How could they?

The shelter called us and yes, she is a dear little 4 pound Yorkie girl - with all the bossiness that little bitches are famous for.
Mercedes - lovely, regal, high class - that's her.
She is definitely not happy if other dogs come near her food dish, so if she could be your only diva, she would be very happy.
Her teeth are now white, her nails are done, and her hair coiffed. Such a personality, such a little lady.
She isn't afraid of other dogs  and she rides in the car fine.  
If you want a tiny little Yorkie girl- then Mercedes is for you. She is vacationing near Reading, PA with Florence. Allow her to have her spa duties done, and put your application in early.

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.
