Baxter-Riley
Super cute and super energetic ….. Baxter is new to rescue.  He is 3 years old and 11 pounds and as beautiful as they come.  He has a wonderful personality and is loving and fun to be with.   Baxter knows the basic commands — sit, stay and come and barks at our back door when he needs to go out.   He is learning to ring the bells on our back door to show foster mom he needs to go outside — he is catching on quickly. 
 
Baxter is doing very well with a busy household of teenagers and foster brother Brady.  He wants to be in the mix and just close to everyone - He cuddles on your lap and seems to take it all in. He is defiantly a lap dog too!  He loves to chase and retrieve the ball and play with other dogs in the neighborhood.  He is great on a leash, friendly to every dog he meets - regardless of size, and full of energy.   He is very curious about everything in the house, and follows foster mom everywhere. 
 
He is a healthy, well groomed, active boy who needs a home where people are active and walk.  His mom had to give him  up  due to her work schedule. Baxter was clearly well loved, trained and cared for!  We were told he was in a crate during the work day, and so far he sleeps in his crate, but spends his down time in his dog bed in the kitchen with foster brother Brady.  He is up to date on all his vaccinations and is micro chipped. 

As they get to know one another better, his foster mom will provide more information ....foster mom can tell you that Baxter  will not be in rescue for long … he will make a wonderful addition to a family who has love to give!
 
Baxter Riley is vacationing in Chevy Chase,  MD, with Hollie.

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.
