Update 7/12/2014
MUST HAVE FENCED YARD FOR THIS BALL LOVING YORKIE!  - PLEASE DO NOT APPLY WITHOUT A FENCED YARD - This is Lil Ben’s reward when training, he does not respond to a food reward, he loves to play fetch in the yard and boy does that make him a happy little guy.  He still loves lots of puppy horseplay with his foster brother Hershey.  He plays fetch with his foster sister Lily but only with total supervision of the lead dog - Foster Mama Cathy!!  He is a wonderful little guy sleeps all night in bed with his foster siblings and foster parents!  This little guy needs an experienced yorkie owner that is willing to go to training and continue with the toy supervision.  He requires a slow start, patience he will come to meet you when he feels comfortable.  He loves chewing on bully sticks and if bored will chew on his foster mom’s throw rug!  He needs to be kept busy with interactive toys, treat balls, training, and several good exercise walks per day.  Then he lays on his favorite blankie and takes several naps and is so happy.  

Update 6/25/2014
'Lil Ben is cute as a button and he is acclimating well in his foster home.  He is such a good boy and he loves to play with all the toys he can find.  His favorite pastime is running in the yard with his foster siblings.  'Lil Ben walks great on a leash, has a great appetite, has very good potty habits, rides well in the car and sleeps through the night.  He is not much for cuddling but always has to be close to you.  He knows basic commands but will benefit from further obedience training and an experienced Yorkie owner.  Put in your application ASAP, because this little gem will not be in rescue for long.

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.
