Mr. Wiggins!  Where are you?

Safe in rescue, thank you very much. Wiggins was found as a stray so we have no history on him. He was not neutered - this is so common and one of the main reasons why male dogs are killed so frequently on the highways. Being unneutered, they go looking for love and are hit by cars while doing it.  Please - neuter your dog!  For his own sake.

Wiggins is a happy, sweet dog - he will be a good dog as soon as we can have it done. He has a few minor things that need to done, like a small cyst on his side, that we will also take care of.

He is an adult dog- just right for a couple who work during the day or couch potatoes who rarely go hiking. Just an easy dog who will give love and snuggle. Spring is on it's way - now is the time to find your dog pal so you can enjoy the good weather and lose a few pounds taking him for a walk.

Wiggins is vacationing in Lancaster, PA with our wonderful foster mom and dad, Liz and Andy. He couldn't be in finer hands. But he needs yours to make him a forever home. Ask about Wiggins and put in your application. Thank you.

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.
