Big Money, what a name! His foster mama writes: It should really be Big Heart because that's what this little guy is all about. He will be your loyal companion. Waiting patiently for you to wake up in the morning. Ready to accompany you throughout your day. Protective of you and your family. This dog is a real pleaser. He's full of antics, too! He plays incessently with his ball, even falling asleep many times with it still in his mouth. He's quick as the wind and throws all of himself into his games. I think he'd make a great flyball dog too. We also have a favorite game where I will hide his ball somewhere in the house and by using the commands yes or no, he's always able to find it. He may be the smartest dog I've ever had in my home. As for house protection, he does alert if someone comes to the door and his bark is a lot bigger than his size. I've felt a lot safer with him here. I almost can't stand the thought of giving him up and I wouldn't if I were able to walk him. I believe it will be a necessity with him because of his eneregy level. Any commited walkers out there? This guy is great on a leash and his tail does helicopter rings and I think he's going to take off when he sees his leash come out! He travels very well in the car. Loves to go with me. He's even done some rescues with me. He's a little wary around strangers but once he gets to know you, he loves you. And so far that been anyone who has come to my house. He's played well with my other two dogs. He's well housebroken and the one or two mistakes he has made would have never have happend if he were on a regular walking schedule. Oh, and did I mention his warm fuzzy body cuddled up to me? He still has a little of his pink baby belly left. He's a real snuggler, at night and during the day while I'm watching television. He often looks up at me and you can see all the love this little guardian has and wants to give. Another favorite thing he does is this soft low semi-growl when he thinks he hears something. It's been quite endearing. Please consider Big Money for your home, he deserves a chance at finding his fovever home, even though I know he'll always have a forever home in my heart. I know you'll grow to love him as I have and the longer I have him the harder it will be for both of us. Donation $250.

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.
