Save A Yorkie Rescue Page
Our mission is to find Yorkshire Terriers who are in shelters, who are strays, or who are surrendered to us by their owners and place each of them in the best homes suited to their temperament and medical needs.  We are also dedicated to educating the public about rescue, about this breed�s characteristics, about animal rights and the need for new laws and law enforcement.  Families contact us because they want to adopt a homeless Yorkshire Terrier. We are very careful to do home visits, vet checks and reference checks before we place the dogs.  If you have a yorkie you can no longer keep or care for, please contact us.   We can help place your dog in one of the many loving homes waiting to adopt a yorkie.
Many of the Yorkies that we take in are old, sick, need medical attention or have behavior problems. But not all. Some are healthy and just need an understanding home. So far this year we have placed over 60 Yorkies.
It has been hard work and there have been tears along the way but the dogs are all in wonderful loving homes - each family thinks THEY got the best dog. We place the dog according to it's needs and the family's preferences. We are ALWAYS looking for FOSTER homes. Somewhere that a small scared dog can rest up after being in a shelter until it can go to its forever home. If you want to help a dog, please contact us by email and we will be happy to send out any info we can to help you get started.  Yes it takes a special person to be able to take in a dog, especially the older dogs that we get in. But the alternative is that they have NO home to stay in. It is unthinkable to us to let a dog stay in a shelter for a moment longer than necessary when there are families who are waiting for a Yorkie.

We welcome the help of anyone who knows and loves Yorkies to work with us. For more information, please contact us by e-mail and we will be happy to tell you more about this wonderful rescue group. Donations are also very welcome. All of our funds go for vet bills which can be quite high for our older dogs. You can mail your donation to Save A Yorkie Rescue, 2650 Shillington Road, Sinking Spring, PA 19608. Call 610-670-2183 between 7 and 9 pm or email us at [email protected].
Join us! Become a rescue angel. Feel good about the work you do. And for those who say, "I could never do that work." Reconsider. We have many happy stories to relate. You CAN do this. We need transporters, foster homes, people who can work at the various fairs for pet rescue. We ask only for the smallest of efforts, only what you are comfortable doing. Nothing more. We become family when we work for the welfare of our Yorkies. Ask for a volunteer application. We would be so happy to have you.
