Yoo Hoooooo   Hey Lady-At-The-Computer -

You have been watching this website everyday, looking at the Yorkies. I know, - I see you.

I'm Roscoe Riley AKA Valentine and I am forlorn and discouraged. Every other Yorkie who has been posted at the same time as me, has found a home and family. All but me. Why?  Why doesn't anyone take a good look at my handsome face and say, "Gee, what a cute little guy he is. I want HIM!" 

Valentine, AKA Rosco Riley, has been waiting for a family for a very long time. He's a YORKIE! He's a healthy, smart, happy active boy! He is enjoying the doggy door at his new home and he loves the snow! He plows through it with his little black Yorkie nose.  Rosco ignores some cats but others, well, he just can't help chasing one cat in particular, so he probably should not go to a home with a cat, for both of their sakes.

Rosco steals all the treats from the other dogs so we think he should not be in a home with other dogs but he loves people so we are hoping you aren't gone 8 hours at a clip. How about some nice classes? He'll shine as he learns to listen to your voice.

Rosco deserves to finally have a family and home - so are you an active family? Love to get out and play? Do you have time for a young dog? He's waited long enough. Please don't make him wait longer.

He is vacationing in Lancaster, PA.  Now is the time to check out Valentine - AKA Rosco and see if a Yorkie is right for you. He's all packed and ready to come home.

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.
