Pretty little Yorkie boy. Ready to come home to you.

Hi there ladies,
 
No he can't sing but he knows all about being a Yorkie. He is very cute!  His family called him Mitchell before they dumped him at a kill shelter when they gave the excuse that they were moving and could not take him along. 

He’s roughly 6 years old - a perfect age to start a new life - old enough to be settled but young enough to have many years of fun with you - hiking, riding in the car, and just being an active member of your family.  He was having a hard time in the shelter environment - the noise, the big dogs, the strangers - he was so scared.
 
Mitch weighs about 11 pounds, with long fine silky like hair. He is active but also loves to be a lap dog.

He likes to be the only dog in your lap, but has learned to allow another dog to share. Toys and other dogs are new to him so he is learning to enjoy them.

He is fully house trained, does not pee or poop in the house and barks near the door when he needs to go. Mitch will sit for food or treats without a verbal command, has no food aggression with other dogs and loves a good dog bed.

He sleeps beside his foster dad's bed in a dog bed all night. Mitch is good on a leash, but does NOT like his photo taken which is why he looks so sheepish.

He will make a wonderful companion for someone with or without another dog. His behavior with cats is unknown. He is vacationing in Falling Water, WV near Hagerstown, MD, with John and his pack of girls and guys. Call about Mitch -  He is a real lover

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.
