Minnie will be available for adoption.

She is 6 years old and weighs 4 lbs.

Her adoption fee is $400.00.

Her hair had to be shaved to the skin because she was infested with fleas, she is shy but warms up to people quickly, she is very tiny at only 4 pounds...that is our Minnie, the name fits her well!  Wait till you see this little morsel blossom.  Minnie is 6 years old and is a poodle-yorkie mix. She came to us from an owner who lost their job and couldn't afford to take care of her anymore. She rides wonderful in the car. During her 3 hour journey to New Jersey she just laid down and slept the entire time. Minnie is very sweet and affectionate and loves to be pet, she will even roll over onto her back so you can rub her little belly. She is very timid and shy at first but once she warms up to you she won't leave your side. We are still getting to know this little peanut and as soon as we know more about her personality we will post an update.

Minnie is staying with Carol and Tim in Burlington, NJ.

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.
