Buckeye, the pride of Ohio!

Buckeye is just adorable - happy, active, smart, active, active ACTIVE! ... he's a puppy!

Mischievious! A puppy - into everything but oh - does he want to be with with WITH YOU! Near you, next to you, beside you.. if you are an active person who is out everyday, has time to work with a new dog and is commited to giving a puppy the discipline and attention he needs - we are looking for YOU!

Buckeye is just a joyful, inquisitive and playful wiggle butt. He loves other dogs - all kinds - but he does not understand doggy pack rules. Buckeye has no idea about rules or discipline but he is learning very quickly.  He pesters his foster siblings and has to be corrected, as a two year old child has to be taught right from wrong. Are you able to set rules and enforce them?

Of course he will benefit greatly from someone who knows how to discipline and train a young dog with patience, repetition and rewards.  Obedience classes are a must! For YOU. 

Buckeye had surgery on his hip and has healed very well - he just needs some stretching exercises.  The vet said he will be walking fine within a month.  We are taking him on some nice long walks to get him to exercise his leg. He loves to play fetch and is enjoying the sun outside. He seems to be housebroken, he goes out with the rest of the crew, and loves all of the attention. 

Buckeye will be the pride of his neighborhood as he struts beside you, laughing as he carries his precious ball with him.

Buckeye, the darling of Ohio, will be painfree and dashing down the street at the side of his mom and dad. Will that be you? He is vacationing in Lancaster, PA with Liz and Andy and her wonderful Yorkie family.. put in your application for this happy puppy.

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.
