He came as a mystery man covered in matts, dirt, and very thin.

No name, no credit cards, no baggage.

 But what a love he is!

Nook was found as a stray in a big city and is estimated to be around 3-5 years old. Although this little man has had a rough start, Nook is starting to come out of his shell.

This sweet little boy is sure to steal your heart. Mellow, quiet, and shy, but as friendly as can be. His expressive eyes ask only to be loved. He follows you around and just wants to be with you.

He walks great on a leash and takes snacks gently. Nook is unsure about toys at this time and is working on his potty training. He is a bit nervous in the car but once he settles in he may feel more comfortable. Nook likes other smaller dogs but is nervous around larger dogs and dogs with high energy. So a home with another small, calmer dog would be ideal. He seems to be good in a crate for shorter periods of time but would prefer someone home most of the day.

With a little TLC, Nook is sure to win you over! Nook is vacationing in Sewell, NJ with Lindsay.

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.
