Cora is available for adoption.

She is 5 years old and weighs 9 lbs.

Her adoption fee is $450.00.

This past week I have seen a positive change in Cora.  She went from this scared little bundle of fur to a tail wagging, happy to see you, demeanor. She is definitely the easiest foster that I ever had.  She is not demanding at all, very laid back, but interested in all you do. 

We went to the Vet where she got her booster, heart worm check, which was negative, and was microchipped.  She not only did  well at the vet she also did great in the car.

I am delighted to learn that she really is puppy pad trained.  I have not had a single accident after her first day here.

She sleeps in her open crate and doesn't move until I am up in the morning.  Then I am greeted with lots of tail wags.  Once again she is absolutely no trouble.

It will take time, I believe, until she is comfortable with the human touch.  She acts as if she is waiting for you to hurt her while petting her.  I know she was raised with children so it is possible they were unintentionally rough with her.  But I already see a difference in her trust issues. 

As the weeks go by I am confident that Cora will begin to feel more comfortable with her new surroundings.  And my goodness she is so adorable it is easy to fall in love.

Cora is staying with Arlene, Allie and Gracie, in Milville, NJ.

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.
