A Yoshi

After a whirlwind year of loss, change, and uncertainty, Yoshi—the sweet little guy with the unforgettable “bat ears”—has finally found his forever home... and we couldn’t be happier for him! Yoshi’s journey wasn’t an easy one. After losing his beloved owner, he found himself shuffled between four different homes, each unable to keep him for one reason or another. But through it all, Yoshi remained the same: friendly, adaptable, and full of quiet resilience. He never gave up hope that the right home was out there—and it turns out, it was waiting for him all along. Enter a couple with big hearts and a long history of rescuing small dogs. After the loss of their last beloved pup this past spring, they thought it might be time for a break—a few years without the pitter-patter of paws. But the silence in their home said otherwise. They quickly realized that life just didn’t feel whole without a dog to love. And that’s when Yoshi came along. From the moment they saw him, they felt that spark. While waiting for Yoshi’s dental procedure to be completed, they didn’t just sit back and wait—they checked in every single day. We exchanged texts daily, filled with updates, pictures, and videos. Their excitement and commitment were clear, and it was obvious Yoshi had already claimed a place in their hearts. Now, Yoshi is home. Both of his new parents work from home, which means he’ll never be alone for long—a perfect match for a dog who’s experienced his fair share of instability. They’re patient, loving, and calm—just like Yoshi. And they understand separation anxiety because they’ve helped dogs through it before. They know it may never fully go away—and that’s alright. What matters most is that Yoshi will always feel safe, loved, and supported, no matter what. Yoshi is finally where he belongs, surrounded by love, security, and companionship. We couldn’t have dreamed up a better ending—or, better yet, a new beginning—for this little guy. Congratulations, Yoshi! Your forever family has found you, and your journey of love has just begun. 💕

Phoenix

Phoenix’s search for his perfect family is finally over—he has found his forever home with the wonderful Stahl family! This incredible, animal-loving family has a long history of rescuing and caring for animals in need, and Phoenix is now their fourth adoption from Save A Yorkie Rescue. In his new home, Phoenix will have two Save A Yorkie brothers to play with, ensuring he always has a buddy for fun and companionship. He’ll also get to enjoy a large, fenced-in backyard where he can run, play, and soak up the sunshine. Best of all, Phoenix will have someone home throughout the day to help him feel safe and secure, giving him the love and attention he needs to work through his separation anxiety. From the moment he met the Stahls, it was clear that Phoenix had finally found the place where he belongs. His tail never stopped wagging, and he showered his new family with kisses, as if he already knew he was home. Congratulations to Phoenix and the Stahl family! Wishing you a lifetime of love, snuggles, and happy adventures together! Congratulations Phoenix!!!

Mark

Mark found his forever home and went to go live his best life with the Millers on May 2nd. I think all my fosters are exceptional and Mark was even more so. He is currently an only pup and getting all the love and attention he deserves and a sibling may be added to the family at some point. My pack and I had a difficult time letting him go but I kept hearing my mentor Bonnie Hensel saying “ The dogs always end up exactly where they are supposed to be”. I think that is true in Mark’s case! I forgot to get a picture because I was blubbering like a fool and concentrating on the other piece of Bonnie’s advice-“ Get a milkshake”. I don’t know why but the milkshake does help. I am attaching a photo of Mark sitting next to his new dad. I know he is very happy! Congratulations Mark!!!

Yoko

It happened all too quickly for us! Yoko has found her forever home with a wonderful loving family! Boo hoo and yipeeeeee! Yoko is the sweetest little girl we’ve ever known. Tom and Fran are now the luckiest couple in the world. Yoko needs a few days to decompress, but then she’ll be their number one family member. She was very timid at her meet and greet, but we know her affectionate side will shine through very quickly. We have no doubt that her forever home will soon be filled with a never-stopping, wildly wagging tail and toy squeaks throughout the day and night! Much happiness to Tom, Fran and Yoko! Congratulations Yoko!!!

Lil Mac

Foster fail alert! Mac was placed with us temporarily until his transport could be arranged to his foster family. He didn’t make it. He decided to work his way into our hearts and lives instead of continuing his journey elsewhere. He is an absolute love bug. He can’t get enough of being by our side 24 hours a day. We adore this little guy and he fits in so well with the family of pups that we have here. Being greedy and selfish we decided to keep him for ourselves. Very sorry for your loss, prospective adopters, but you’ll have to wait until the next perfect pup comes your way. Which shouldn’t be too long because they’re ALL perfect! CONGRATULATIONS LIL MAC!!!
