Learn more about the Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie.
3 Long-g-g-g months, Anna has waited for a home of her own. She has seen dozens of other Yorkies finding their forever homes. But none for her. Why? She is an adorable little girl and just as sweet as they come.
Anna, banna, bo-banna, Anna... remember the Name Game? This isn't a game for Anna.
She has been waiting for months for someone to come to her rescue and take her home.
Anna is a fine dog who loves people and fun. Anna is obedient, loving and even housetrained. She has been given the full run of her foster mom's home.
Anna has Cushings and takes a simple medication. She feels so much better now that she has the medication. We just wanted to mention it so that if you are not comfortable having to pay for medication for a dog - this is not the dog for you.
Anna is a real treasure and we want her to go to a home that wants a very easy, sweet tempered girl.
Honest - she is happy, friendly and ready to go. She is pretty, lively and gets along with everyone. She would love love love to go on walks with you so she can lose a pound or two - just like you. She wants some attention. It's the people who are not dependable. They keep letting her down and passing her around like a marijuana dooby. Don't they realize - when you have a dog who loves you, it is forever? If she could write you a letter, this is what she would say:
I am a dog. I am a living, breathing animal. I feel pain, joy, love, fear and pleasure. I am not a thing. If I am hit - I will bruise, I will bleed, I will break. I will feel pain. I am not a thing. I am a dog. I enjoy playtime, walk time, but more than anything, I enjoy time with my pack - my family - my people. I want nothing more than to be by the side of my human. I want to sleep where you sleep and walk where you walk. I am a dog and I feel love...I crave companionship. I enjoy the touch of a kind hand and the softness of a good bed. I want to be inside of the home with my family, not stuck on the end of a chain or alone in a kennel or fenced yard for hours on end. I was born to be a companion, not to live a life of solitude. I get too cold and I get too hot. I experience hunger and thirst. I am a living creature, not a thing. When you leave, I want to go with you. If I stay behind, I will eagerly await your return. I long for the sound of your voice. I will do most anything to please you. I live to be your treasured companion. I am a dog. My actions are not dictated by money, greed, or hatred. I do not know prejudice. I live in the moment and am ruled by love and loyalty. Do not mistake me for a mindless object. I can feel and I can think. I can experience more than physical pain, I can feel fear and joy. I can feel love and confusion. I have emotions. I understand perhaps more than you do. I am able to comprehend the words you speak to me, but you are not always able to understand me. I am a dog. I am not able to care for myself without your help. If you choose to tie me up and refuse to feed me, I will starve. If you abandon me on a rural road, I will experience fear and loneliness. I will search for you and wonder why I have been left behind. I am not a piece of property to be dumped and forgotten. If you choose to leave me at a shelter, I will be frightened and bewildered. I will watch for your return with every footfall that approaches my kennel run. I am a dog - a living, breathing creature. If you choose to take me home, please provide me with the things that I need to keep me healthy and happy. Provide me with good food, clean water, warm shelter and your love. Do not abandon me. Do not kick me. Do not dump me when your life gets too busy. Make a commitment to me for the entirety of my life, or do not take me home in the first place. If you desert me, I do not have the means to care for myself. I am at the mercy of the kindness of people - if I fall into the wrong hands, my life will be ruined. I will experience pain, fear and loneliness. If I wind up in an animal shelter, I have only my eyes to implore someone to save me, and my tail to show you that I am a friend. If that is not good enough, I will die. I am a dog. I want to give and receive love. I want to live. I am not a thing. I am not a piece of property. Please do not discard me. Please treat me with kindness, love and respect. I promise to repay you with unconditional love for as long as I live. signed, Anna More about AnnaGood with Dogs, Good with Cats Save A Yorkie Rescue, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) qualified non-profit organization operating on donations from Yorkie lovers who care.
