Talk to your family and friends about helping with rescue.  We need EVERYONE who is willing to actually WORK, even in some small way, to help a needy Yorkie find a forever home. They may wonder WHY Yorkies would need to be rescued.  Explain to them that Yorkie owners die, divorce, move, go into nursing homes and into the military.  Their adored dogs need to find good loving homes. That is where we come in.  We find lost and strayed Yorkies and place them in pre-approved foster homes until they can go into forever homes.  In between, we pay for spaying, neutering, heartworm checks, and dental cleanings.  It is expensive which is why we ask for help at Yorkie Rescue events.

Get ready for our call.  We promise to never ask you to do more than you are comfortable doing. Thanks for taking this first step.

Rescue Coordinator
