Abbey is available for adoption with her sister Ava (black and silver), they are a bonded pair, sisters from the same litter and have been together their entire lives.

She is 5 years old and weighs 5 lbs.

Her adoption fee is $500.00 but since the girls need to stay together, the adoption fee for both girls will be $800.00.

Abbey and Ava are litter mates who have been together their whole lives.  They both are crate trained and like to potty outside, they walk nicely on the leash and get a long with other dogs.  They do not feel comfortable around small children since they have never been around them but will let anyone pick them up or pet them.  They both tolerate grooming and teeth brushing and even getting dressed up!!
 
Abbey and Ava stick together but also do their own thing. Like Ying and Yang they are good together.  Ava is more relaxed and will hang out on the couch or in her bed alone. she is not fussy about anything.   Abbey will push her way past Ava to get to the food bowl or a nice warm lap,  I sometimes think Ava is rolling her eyes at Abbey!  
 
Abbey is vacationing in South Salem, NY, with Robyn and her family.

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.
