Bentley needs a quiet laid back home. He just wants to be loved and be with his humans.

Here’s my story: My first mommy had to surrender me because she got Alzheimer’s. She really loves me so she got in touch with this wonderful group who is looking for a new family for me. One who will be gentle with me because that is what I'm use to. I am not use to a wild crazy life.  I love to just be with you.

I prefer soft food and I even like when my new foster mommy gives me some of her supper. (small samples of meat) I am just so happy to be with my humans anywhere they are. I enjoy going for rides in the car and I LOVE LOVE LOVE going for walks. It doesn’t matter what the weather is my favorite thing in the world is going for walks. When I hear my harness bell ring I run to the door and prance and make cute noises. Well that is what my foster mom says any ways. She says it’s like I’msinging to go for my walk. I am really good on the leash too.

I really don’t play with toys much and I prefer to be with other animals (dogs and cats) that are gentle like me. I don’t like to be played with rough or handled rough. I am so gentle even when I jump on your lap to be held. I try to tip toe so I don’t hurt you. I love to be on the couch with you and will lay beside you or if you let me I’llkeep your lap warm. I love to sleep in bed with you and my favorite place to sleep is on top of the blankets between your legs. Now when it’s chilly my foster mommy puts a small throw blanket over me and that is wonderful. If I get too warm I will jump on the floor and sleep in my own bed beside my foster mom’s bed. My foster mom says I have a cute little whimper/whine when I want you to pick me up to get into bed.

I do wonderful with a doggie door and love to go out into the fenced yard with my foster siblings. No need for a cage or kennel with me.

If you are looking for a gentle boy to have by your side, look no further, I’m your boy. I promise you won’t be disappointed.

I’m vacationing with my foster mommy Shona and my 2 foster sisters in Altoona Pa.

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.
