This is a picture of Little Mann in his bed although he also likes to sleep cuddled against you. Little Mann has great house manners and doesn’t get into any mischief. He mostly likes to be with his person but that can be either of us. He will stay near you on a little bed and even cuddle in your lap. He also seems to understand multiple commands like ‘come here’, ‘stay’ and ‘no’. We’ve been leaving him and our other dog alone for an hour or so a few times a week and no major problems. He is very excited to see us when we get home but calms down quickly. We did get some disappointing news from the Vet this week. The results of his initial tests show that he does have lyme disease. He doesn’t show any symptoms and is being treated with antibiotics for 30 days. Grooming is set for the end of the week.
UPDATE 1 - 9/4:
We have only had him a few weeks but have found him to be energetic and a cuddle bug Be prepared for him to shower you with love. He will follow you around the house as he wants to be near you. Little Mann will raise his paw and wave it in the air to let you know that he wants to be picked up or sit in your lap, no barking for this little one!
Little Mann doesn’t beg for people food but does have a healthy appetite for his own and will eat enthusiastically. We take him for 3 long walks and he walks briskly on a leash while exploring the neighborhood. Little Mann and our other dog walk side by side as they strut through the neighborhood.
He went for his grooming appointment on Thursday and looks adorable in his tuxedo. We are getting him ready for adoption so get your application in today for this loveable, energetic dog!
Little Mann is staying with Virginia in Gaithersburg, Md.

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.
