Marlie is available for adoption.

She is 6 years old and weighs 3.3 lbs.

Her adoption fee is $900.00.

It has been 3 weeks since we have had this little girl and she has really blossomed.  Marlie is 6 years old and weighs 3.3 pounds.  She gets along with other dogs and loves to be on my lap.  She has a common issue with Yorkies, luxating patella’s, which means that her knee tends to pop out of joint.  She will eventually need surgery to correct this but for now she generally walks on 3 legs. She doesn’t appear to be in any pain. This doesn’t hold her back at all.  I do carry her in a doggie sling when we go on walks and she loves it.  She goes everywhere with me.  She is a great little shopper!  Marlie has no teeth so she eats a soft diet like Fresh Pet.  Whoever adopts this sweetheart will have a wonderful little companion.  Marlie is being fostered in Williamsburg, VA.

Marlie is staying with Nancy in Williamsburg, VA.

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.
