Binky  - This little man is unsure of people right now and no wonder.

One year ago, two ladies bought Binky as a puppy. He came to their home but they had a toddler who was not supervised with the puppy. The child pulled the puppy's hair, smacked him - even bit him! Poor Binky - he could not get away from the torture. One of the ladies saw his torment and gave him away.

He went to a home where he became a therapy dog for a girl who has tuberous brain. the girl had a second operation to remove part of the brain and it changed her personality so now she can't stand the dog on her lap. The sad part is this little guy would warn them if she was about to have a seizure and would go get them. That is amazing. Too bad we can't find another family that could use his services as a therapy dog .

He is a sweet dog and gets along with the other dogs in the foster home. He was supposed to be afraid of men but warmed up to the resident man and wasn't afraid of him at all. He hasn't spotted the cats yet so we aren't sure of them. 

He loves to ride in the car. He ate a good supper and hopefully will sleep well tonight.  He is adorable and a little on the thin side but seems healthy. He is right on the money for size.  Binky loves to ride in a car, plays with toys and walks fairly well on a leash. He needs to get his shots and be groomed - then he will be ready to come home with you. Give one small dog a chance to find his forever home - please.

Binky will be vacationing near Lancaster, PA with Mary Ellen.  Binky will be a buddy.. if you give him a chance.

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.
