 Rascal and his new mommy and fur brother
|
Rascal
4/19/18 Rascal was adopted today. Rascal came to UYR looking for much needed love and attention. His former daddy got very sick and the family was unable to care for Rascal. They did not have the means to care for Rascal, nor did they have the time to give a young 9 month old puppy the time and attention a puppy needs. That all changed when Rascal went to his forever home today. Rascal's new mommy works from home and can spend quality time with Rascal during the day. Rascal's new daddy works outside of the home but can't wait to spend his evenings and weekends doting on Rascal. Rascal is so excited because he has a fur brother that is young and loves to play with him. He also has a larger fur brother who is recovering from surgery and can't wait to start playing with Rascal. There is a large fenced yard and a pool for summer enjoyment. Rascal hit the jackpot with his new family...Thank you to Rascal's furever family.

 Tess and her mew mom and dad.

Tess
4015/18 Little Tess was adopted today. Tess arrived at her foster home limping badly and lifting her right leg up. That was not the way a 4.5-year-old pup should be walking. Her foster mom knew right away this was more than just a bad knee. Tess had already been through enough, but it wasn't over yet. Her first mommy died and then her daddy got very sick and was dying. He could not longer care for poor Tess. Her foster mom knew, though, that Tess's problems were just beginning and they were. The vet checked her right leg and confirmed Tess would need surgery to repair her ligament and to put her knee back into place instead of it wobbly all around. On February 26th Tess had her surgery. It was a rough surgery because she also needed an umbilical hernia repaired at the same time. Poor Tess came home like looking so sad and so sore. She slept the first 2 days. It took a while but finally Tess healed and was walking on her right leg most of the time. It took almost 2 months, but finally Tess was finally able to go to her forever home. She met her new mom and dad and it was love. Tess, who is usually shy and timid, seemed right at home with her new mom and dad. Tess found the perfect home for her. No other dogs, a nice fenced yard to watch the squirrels, and a mom and dad who were home most of the time to be with her. Tess found her forever home for sure. Her foster mom and dad want Tess to know they will miss her, but they know her life will be filled with so much love and happiness.

 Daisy and her new family
|
Daisy
4-14-18 Daisy was adopted today. Daisy was sadly surrendered because she was very unhappy. She was living with her mom and 5 other dogs who were much bigger than her. She was scared all the time and spent her day hiding in her crate. Her mom knew that sweet Daisy was just so scared and unhappy with all those other dogs around her that she had to find her a happier, better place. Daisy became a United Yorkie Rescue and went to her foster home where there are only 2 others dogs. It is a lot quieter and her new foster fur siblings are gentler and kinder to darling Daisy. Daisy did great in her foster home, but really wanted a forever home of her own. Today she met and fell in love with her new family. Her stay at home mom and dad and one other small fur brother. She has a nice, quiet house, a really great fenced yard, and lots and lots of love and attention. Daisy found her forever home and now has her happily forever ever.

 I am the happiest girl in the world

Lola
4-12-18 Sweet Lola was adopted today. Lola ended up somehow in a high-kill shelter. Because the shelter was so over-crowded, Lola was only one day away from being euthanized. United Yorkie Rescue could not let that happen to this precious little Yorkie "wannabe." We had to save her from such a fate. And so Lola became a United Yorkie Rescue baby. Her foster mom took her to the vet and found out that she had cataracts in both eyes. The cataract in her left eye was mature and she has very little vision in that eye. She was able to see shadows with her right eye. Somehow we had to find a way to restore Lola's site in at least one eye if we could. With the help of our many angels we raised enough money for Lola to have cataract surgery on one eye. Her surgery was on 01/30 and although there were a few bumps along the road, Lola did great and now she can see. Imagine going from a dark world, to on filled with light. She explored everything she could with her new eyesight. The doggie eye doctor was very pleased with the results of the surgery. After several more trips to the eye surgeon for rechecks Lola was finally released and able to go to her forever home. That happened today. Lola has a wonderful new stay at home forever mom who she will have all to herself. She doesn't have to share her mommy anymore. She has a beautiful fenced yard for running and sunning. Lola is also close enough to her eye surgeon for a few more check ups. Lola is the happiest little girl in the world. It is a world she can see and a mom to love her and care for her forever.

 Haley and her wonderful new mom and fur siblings
|
Haley
4-10-18 Haley was adopted today. Things were pretty sad for Haley for a while. First her mom died and then her dad got very sick with cancer and could no longer take care of Haley. It was with so much sadness and a heavy heart that Haley became a United Yorkie Rescue dog. Haley's foster mom and dad gave her a wonderful new life. She got along with the other dogs in her foster home and even the cats. They found that she loves being outside chasing the squirrels. She also loves just relaxing and sitting in the sun. But for Haley there is nothing better than sitting in her foster mom or dad's lap and having a nice long cuddle with them. Haley learned some good doggie manners in her foster home and she was a happy girl. All that was missing was a forever home of her own, and that happened today. She has a terrific new mommy and two other fur siblings for friends. Best of all Haley has a wonderful fenced backyard, and can now chase all the squirrels she wants. She is so happy with her new family. Her foster mom and dad will miss her, but they know Haley has exactly the forever home she has always dreamed of.

 Even Coco is smiling. She found her forever mommy and daddy
|
Coco
4/7/18 Coco was adopted today. Sweet, playful Coco the 7-month-old puppy was adopted today. You can see how happy she is with her new family. She is smiling along with her new mommy and daddy. Coco came to United Yorkie Rescue almost 3 months ago. She was only 4 months old and weighed a tiny 2.5 pounds. Her former vet told her owners, after some testing, he was sure Coco had a liver shunt and needed surgery right away. United Yorkie Rescue would never turn away a dog if we could help and Coco became a United Yorkie Rescue dog. In February she got her operation and stayed in her foster home for 2 1/2 months while she healed. The good news came when she had her follow up bile acids test and it came showing that the shunt surgery was a success. Hooray!! Coco was ready to find her forever home. Coco found the most perfect home. She has a wonderful fenced yard. She met the dog next door and they were already playing together. She has a stay at home mom and dad. Coco even has another home right on the beach. That will be fun, fun, fun for her. Her new mommy and daddy are ready to work with Coco as she continues to learn her proper puppy manners. It will be a wonderful life for Coco. She knows she is home forever with the best mommy and daddy any puppy could want

 Trixie and Abigail and their new mom. Adopted together
|
Trixie (and Abigail)
3-24-18 Trixie and her sister Abigail were adopted together today. Trixie and her sister Abigail know they were very lucky to have been saved by United Yorkie Rescue. They were originally in a home where they were not cared for at all and were very sad there. They were rescued by a very nice lady and lived in her home for a while. However, she was away from home a lot of hours every day and knew it wasn't the best situation for them. She contacted United Yorkie Rescue and Trixie and Abigail were on their way to their new foster home. Because they were originally in a home with such dismal conditions they never learned proper house training or how to walk on a leash. Their foster mom worked hard with the girls. In spite of all that, their foster mom said they are the sweetest, most loving little girls.
Today they found their forever home. Their new mom is so excited and has already bought them both a whole new wardrobe of the latest doggie fashions. They will get to go on safe golf cart rides and learn more doggie manners. They have wonderful new toys and will make new doggie friends. Their new mom is ready to love these two girls forever and ever. What a great life ahead for Trixie and Abigail.

Zoey
03/11/18. Walks on the beach with your new mom? Heck yea!! You will be the only dog with a retired mom that stays home? Even better!
ZOEY got adopted today. Her forever mom is Linda. Look at the way this woman is looking at her little Zoey! Love at first sight! No if's, no buts....just love!
You were physically broken and emotionally crushed. We watched you heal for 9 months while you taught us lessons we didn't know we needed to learn. Letting you get adopted is hurting more than we bargained for, but you deserved your second chance at life and so much more! Your new mom was so well prepared to receive, getting ready like a mom prepares for her new baby. So much love in her eyes, heart and touch. Happy tails sweet baby girl. Thank you for leaving a mark in our hearts Zoey...we miss you soooo much already. Happy walks on the beach!

 Romeo and his new mom and dad. Happy Tails Sweet Boy
|
Romeo
3-11-18 Romeo was adopted today. This sweet boy 9-year-old fellow found himself in the shelter with little hope of getting out. No one ever came to claim him. But United Yorkie Rescue sure did. He had such bad teeth and a terrible injury on his right leg. Everyone at the shelter thought that is was a tumor and he may need a big surgery or possibly he would lose his leg. After a visit to the veterinary orthopedic specialist it turned out he had a bone infection and did not need surgery. He only needed a few antibiotic injections. After two injections he was almost walking like new again. We were all so happy for Romeo. This sweet boy got his dental and to have all his teeth removed, but that's okay, he is eating just fine. And today he was adopted. His new fur sister is so excited to have a brother. He has a wonderful new mom and dad who are so excited to have Romeo as their new fur baby. Romeo found his forever family and his forever home. Happy Tails Romeo.

 Boda has a place to rest his head forever
|
Boda
3-3-18 Boda was adopted today. It was a very sad day for Boda and his brother when their owner dropped them off at someone's house, and then he never came back for them. The very nice lady took care of them for 2 years, then due to her circumstances and the fact she was moving across the country, she knew she was no longer able to take care of them. That is when she called United Yorkie Rescue to help.
Poor Boda. He was 11 years old and only 4 pounds. He needed to see a vet, get his teeth fixed, and he needed all his vaccinations. Who would want an older dog who needed all that care? But his foster mom and dad told him not to worry. They assured him they would take good care of him and get him all fixed up, and someone would surely want such a sweet boy.
The minute his new dad and mom met Boda they knew he was the boy for them. Boda and their dog immediately loved each other and were friends the instant they met. Today they officially adopted sweet little Boda and took him home with them. They have promised to love and care for Boda for the rest of his life. Lucky Boda, he now has a stay at home mom and dad, a wonderful fur sister, lots of toys, all the doggie beds he needs to rest his head, and the peace of knowing that at 11 years old he found his forever home at last.
