Dixie Lee is available for adoption.  

Dixie Lee's adoption fee is $450.

Dixie Lee is approximately 2 years old and weighs about 9 pounds. 

Brand new in rescue!  She had a difficult time as a stray found scared and in bad shape.  She came into a shelter so matted with feces and filth, she could neither urinate nor defecate!  She had to be shaved and that was so traumatic!  

But the bad times are over for this southern belle.  

Dixie Lee is neither shy, nervous or scared. Once she meets you, she's your best friend She's all puppy! Full of energy and loves to play. 

She has been cleaned up, spayed and is feeling great. She has beautiful teeth and so far no health problems at all. 

Once she warms up to you she likes to sit in your lap and give kisses. She is good with other dogs.

She is young and we require obedience classes, several walks a day, someone who is home much of the time to be with her and socialize her.  Only the best, from this day forward - Dixie is in the land of milk and honey.  Happy Days!  

Dixie Lee is vacationing in Norfolk, VA with Susannah 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. 

Be aware that you will be asked to drive to meet and pick up your dog.
