Cider is available for adoption.

He is 8 years old and weighs 7 pounds.

His adoption fee is $350.00.

Cider has been in rescue less than 48 hrs. so we are still getting to know him.  He is 8 yrs. old and weighs a little over 7 lbs. and as you can see, he is a handsome boy. He needs a trip to the groomer, but when he's done, he will be the quintessential "Yorkie standard" boy!  He rode really well in the car for 2 hrs. with his new foster mom when she picked him up. He seems to have a very easygoing personality and within a few hours of arriving, was snuggling on the couch with foster mom and dad. He walks well on a lead, at quite a brisk pace! He knows some basic commands, like sit, stay and down, and comes right away when you call him. Cider was surrendered because his owners now have a toddler and no longer had enough time for him. He spent an inordinate amount of time in a crate, day and night, so you can imagine how new and exciting it is for him to have a big fenced yard to run and explore in!  So far, he seems very well housetrained and has not made a single overture to "mark" in the house, nor have there been any accidents in the house.  All-in-all, Cider seems to be adjusting beautifully. He will certainly be an "easy keeper", as they say, for a family that will walk him a couple times a day, play with him and just give him the love and attention he deserves.
 
Cider is vacationing in Portland, CT with Lori.

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.
