Marvin will be available for adoption when he receives his last Distemper/Parvo booster in January.

He is 2 months old and weighs 2.8 lbs.

His adoption fee is $700.00.

This 8 wk year old puppy is easy to love!  Marvin is playful, funny and full of energy. He likes to play hard and then will find his bed to get a much needed nap. He’s still navigating what items are toys and what’s not to be chewed on, but he’s smart and seems to be learning quickly.  

A breeder contacted SAY on Monday night, her Yorkie had five 7 week old puppies that hadn’t gotten any Veterinary care. They brought a two month old Chihuahua into their home who developed Parvo. Without the money to vaccinate all five puppies and their mother they were worried all the puppies would contract Parvo. Tuesday morning I drove two hours to NJ and picked up the 5 puppies who were never weaned from their mother. Two hours later they were at the Vet for their first check up and shots. They were also treated for fleas. After a long journey the puppies had no problems eating their first real meal. Meet Marvin Gardens, the typical big brother, he’s rough and tumble but also likes to cuddle with his humans. Victoria Avenue, she’s a real fun gal and loves rough housing with her brothers.  St. Charles Place is a gentle giant. He’s the biggest of them all but he doesn’t show it off, he’s a good boy and paper trained already!  Oriental Place is smaller than her sister but lots of fun, she likes to jump in on the action and holds her own. Tennessee Avenue is the baby brother, he never starts in but he can definitely play with the big boys (or girl). They all still need more shots before being adopted and will need spaying and neutering by adopter.

Marvin is staying with Lynette and her family in Doylestown, 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.
