His adoption fee is $400.00.


Rock O is a handsome loveable Yorkie boy!  He likes to be on your lap or near you all the time.  He likes to play and chew his hide a treat toy.  He enjoys jumping up on the bed or the back of the couch and watches the action from there.  He doesn't like being alone and is super excited when we return home.  He will bark and jump up and down on his hind legs until we pick him up. He needs a forever family where someone is home most of the time to teach Rock O all good manners.  He gets along with other small dogs that are not aggressive so a brother or sister would be great!  If you think you could give him a great forever home, get your application in right away because that is the first step to adopting Rock O.This sweet little boy will make someone a wonderful little companion that will cherish every moment with his forever mom and dad. 

We are looking for a forever home with a fenced in yard and someone at home most of the day, who is willing to walk him at least two times a day. He really does not like to be left home alone. He is afraid of bigger dogs but does enjoy the company of my 9 pound senior poodle girl.  He is young and precocious, so he will need someone who is experienced with Yorkies.  Until we find the perfect forever home for him we are happy and delighted to have him in our home.  Rocco's foster mommy Maryann Wismer. 


He is vacationing in Nazareth, PA with Maryann.

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.
