Tobie has a new home
|
Tobie
8/13/16 Tobie found her new family today. Tobie's previous owners found her on the streets and took her to the local shelter where she needed to be help for a period of time to allow the first owner to claim her. When no one came to take her home, she was adopted by the family who found her. Sadly after a few years, the circumstances in their lives changed and they were no longer able to keep her. So they asked UYR if we would take her in and help find a loving forever home for her. Now after a dental with a number of extractions and getting updated on her vaccinations, Tobie found her perfect forever home, giving love and kisses to a new mom and day. Hooray for Tobie!

Taffi
8/10/16 Taffi (now Taff) has found his forever home. At age 8, he was surrendered by his family due to financial issues and UYR happily was able to take him into our rescue. The best little boy ever and very handsome, he quickly found his forever family where they will dote on him exclusively. His new mom and dad recently sent a great note about their adoption experience with UYR which they have allowed us to share below:
"We would like to take a moment to bring to your attention our most wonderful recent adoption experience with United Yorkie Rescue. Every aspect of our adoption transaction for our precious 'Taff' was met with the utmost of professionalism by Christine (his foster mom).
We cannot say enough accolades about her and wanted to acknowledge our extremely positive experience. Truly Christine is an extreme asset to United Yorkie Rescue!"

Zoey and new mom

Zoey
8-10-26 Zoey was adopted today. After being with the same family for ten years, this precious little girl was surrendered because they no were able to give her the time she needed. It took her several weeks at her foster home before she realized she wasn't "going home" and she finally began adjusting to her new life. Foster Mom was more than a little worried that this little girl was having to go through yet another life changing event, but her worries became joy when she saw how Zoey was with her new mommy! She was running all through the house and wagging her tail, jumping up for her new momma to hold her. She knew, she really knew, she was "home again". Foster mom shed a few tears, but instead of sad tears, she was crying happy tears. It was a match made in heaven........

Sammy
8-3-16 Sammy is finally home forever. This sweet sweet boy, for no reason of his own, found himself in over 5 different homes in his 6 short years of living. He never knew if he would go to sleep in the same home he woke up in that very morning. In spite of all that he is the most loving, well-behaved dog. He loves everyone and no matter where you take him, in the car, on a walk, to a friend's house, to the park, you could count on Sammy to behave like a perfect gentleman, but still he didn't have a home and family to call his own. And then one magic day he did. He met and fell in love with his forever mommy and she couldn't have loved him and wanted him more. Sammy's new home is such a great place. He has a fenced yard, some fur siblings to play with, and the forever home he always wanted. From now on until forever Sammy will wake up and go to sleep in the same home every single day for the rest of his life.

Mack
8-2-16 Hi everyone, It is me, Mack. I am so excited that I have found my forever family. I will no longer have to worry about staying home alone for long periods of time because my daddy is home all the time, and my mommy is home a lot too. I already have two big sisters that I love. My sisters are rescued Greyhounds and are so gentle. Who would have thought that someone would find it in their hearts to adopt a fellow my age? Heck, I may be 11 years old but I have the spirit of a puppy. I wasn't sure I would ever again have a family to call my own after my last family couldn't keep me, but I did and a happier fellow couldn't be found anywhere. Have to run now. Time to start playing with my sisters and all my new toys.

Axl and new mom

Axl
7/31/2016 Axl arrived early April on the tail of a March whirlwind. He rode on the fence between Looking for Love and Forever Ours for 3 months. Serious sinus issues delayed neutering as Dr. Jeni scheduled him for a sinus flush with a biopsy and radiograph of his gums along with dental extractions. In the meantime, Dr. Jeni found information where a certain skin allergy drug was effectively treating sinus issues as well, we gave it a shot and it worked. Dental surgery extracted all but 1 tooth, but the radiograph showed no further infection. We thought we were in the clear until urinalysis test indicated extremely high protein in the urine, a sure sign of first stage renal failure. But wait . . . His blood work challenged the urinalysis test so we went all the way for this little pup with an Ultrasound. Not only did he get a fantastic report, the specialist concluded he was a normal healthy dog most suitable for adoption. Axl had jumped the fence and was now Looking for Love.
This morning at approximately 10:10 AM, wheels up and he was on his journey; destination--FUREVER! Fifteen minutes later, Axl (Rose) Rock Star Yorkie strutted his way right into the home and heart of the fabulous, wonderful, loving Ms. Debbie. I got his high 5 sitting right there in her living room We then went outside to the beautiful double deck and I left him and Ms. Bella Poodle enjoying the beautiful shaded back yard of a beautiful southern home. And where was Mr. Dad? Well, he's fly'in high in the skies, he's a pilot.
WHEELS DOWN, Axl, you have safely and most lovingly arrived at FUREVER!

Cody and new family

Cody
7-25-16 Cody started life a little harder than most Yorkie puppies. He had a liver shunt and needed surgery as soon as possible. this is a very serious and life-threatening condition that requires extensive treatment, usually in the form of a very expensive surgery. Cody had this surgery in March and had a long recovery until he was finally ready to go to his forever home. He needed all this time to recover from his surgery. Cody healed and became a loving, active, and happy young fellow. He loves other dogs and he loves people even more. Cody found just the perfect forever family. A mom and dad who are home most of the time and another fur friend to hang with and play with everyday. His new mom and dad will take Cody everywhere they go and if they can't he gets to go to doggie day care with his new brother. At his new home there is a great big fenced yard to run around in. This is just a dream come true for this now very healthy and amazing little pup.

Scooter
7/22/16 Scooter lost his only mom he ever knew in all his 10 years. It was a very sad time for him, and he didn't know what was ahead for him. He had no idea when he became a United Yorkie Rescue dog that another wonderful mom was waiting to adopt him and make him hers. Scooter will live out the rest of his life with his new mom and all the love and care a dog could ever want. Scooter is such a good boy and he will have such a good life. Happy Tails ahead for Scooter.

Mia
7/21/16 Hooray for Mia...she found her perfect forever home today! Mia was a 3 year old, 5 pound little sweetie who was surrendered by her elderly owner who could no longer care for her. She arrived dirty, matted, and in heat. No groomer would take her because she was in heat, so Foster Mom bathed her and trimmed her mats, but she desperately needs to be groomed. She was spayed and had most of her teeth removed on Wednesday, June 29th. Her teeth were so bad that the vet kept her overnight to make sure she was going to be okay. Mia found her perfect forever home with a single, young retiree and will be much loved and doted upon.

Radar and new mom

Radar
7/16/16 Finally Radar has found his forever home. This sweet little boy went from home to home the last few years. He never knew where he would end up at the end of the day and who would be there to take care of him in the morning. His previous owner, before he became a United Yorkie Rescue dog, wanted to keep him, but her other dogs decided they didn't really like Radar and they picked on him. He is only 4.5 pounds and she was very worried about his safety, so she sadly surrendered him to UYR. Radar was so timid and scared at first. However, he found love and care and a safe place in his foster home and started to come out of his shell. Radar fell in love with his new mommy the minute he met her. They both knew they were meant to be together forever and ever. He is an only pup now and has so much love and attention. When he goes to sleep at nigh, he knows he will wakes up in the same home every morning. He knows he will never have to move again. This sweet boy who loves to be held and cuddled has truly found his happily ever after forever.

Jessa
7/11/16 From Puppy Mill girl to treasured family member, Jessa is now enjoying all the love and attention she has been missing. She has her very own humans and a playful fur brother (also adopted through UYR) to spend her days with and laps to snuggle into at night. Happy Tails Jessa! We love you!
On 6/15/16 Jessa was part of a Puppy Mill operation that was called to the attention of law enforcement agencies when neighbors reported instances of animal cruelty and suffering at a nearby Puppy Mill. All animals including many small breed dogs were seized along with Jessa and her 7 puppies. She nursed them and was a wonderful mom until on June 19 she had to be hospitalized for milk fever and a uterine infection. After starting her on medication, it was determined that she needed to have an emergency spay procedure to resolve the uterine problem which was serious. She came through with flying colors and the puppies were thankfully far enough along to be weaned and started on puppy formula. Jessa had to be kept separated from her pups, so after she was fully recovered from her surgery, she was adopted out to a perfect forever home.

Buddy
7-10-16 Little Buddy was adopted today. This wonderful senior boy will spend the rest of his days with his forever mommy. Together they will give each other companionship and love until the end. Buddy was surrendered just a few weeks ago because his family had to keep going out of town and he was boarded and crated for days and sometimes weeks at a time. This was no life for this still young at heart boy. When Buddy arrived at his foster home he loved having the attention and freedom that came with having someone home with him much of the day. His foster mom knew that is what Buddy needed and that is what he got. He has a stay at home mom and will be an only pup getting all the attention and love that one dog could possibly get. Such a happy tails for such a wonderful fellow.

Charlie Boy
7-8-16 Could things have happened any faster for little Charlie Boy? His first family had to keep boarding Charlie when a relative needed them with her due to unfortunate circumstances. They felt it was wrong to keep him boarded for weeks at a time. They sadly decided Charlie needed a family that could give him the time an attention he needed.. Charlie Boy became a United Yorkie Rescue foster pup on June 29th. It only took two weeks before his wonderful new family adopted him. They knew right away he was the perfect boy for them. This sweet guy is house trained, and leash trained, and just the love bug they have been searching for. Charlie will have all the love and attention he deserves and a true happily ever after forever.
