Chase

Chase is a sweet yorkie boy weighing 7 pounds. He is 2 years old and is being fostered in Leesburg, FL.

Dogs being fostered in Florida must be adopted within the State of Florida.

THANK YOU TO CHASE'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Wendy Fuhrmaneck, Dianne Schultz

Initial Bio 5/14/23: Chase was sadly surrendered by his family when they were told he needed a liver shunt surgery. Due to their circumstances they were unable to afford the cost of this expensive surgery and so they turned to United Yorkie Rescue to help Chase.

Chases family trusted us to help their beloved little guy. We can't - we won't - let them down and even more we will never let sweet Chase down. Chase will need expensive medical care which will include testing, an ultrasound, and a surgery. He's so young and so loving he deserves every chance at a long and heathy life. You know we cant give him that help without the help and support of our rescue angels. Please-once again we ask that you reach into your pockets and donate whatever you can to help us help Chase to give this very young and very sweet little guy the long healthy life he deserves.

Chase has been with his foster family only a day and already they learned some things about him. He is a high energy, full of vim and vigor, young fellow. He is bouncy, and wow can he jump. Chase has quickly attached himself to his foster mom. He is next to her, on her lap, and insists on following her wherever she goes. Therefore, at this time Chase's foster parents think he may be happier as an only dog.

Chase appears to be potty pad trained as well as knowing to do his business outside. In fact, he loves to be outside and would love a fenced yard. He seems to know the command stay. He is a good eater, and made quick work of his prescription liver diet food, which is the only food he can eat at this time. He will give kisses to any person who will pay him any attention. He slept in his crate on his doggie bed throughout the night with no accidents. At this time we are not sure how he will do on walks or in the car when he is on a trip. Obviously, there is still much more to know about Chase.

To date we've spent $232.87 on Chase's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $1600 in donations.

Update 6/4/23:

Hi everybody, my results came in yesterday. Foster mom said whoa! Im so special. I do have a portosystemic shunt. Yay. Thats one that they can surgically fix by placing a constrictor on the shunt. If they have time Ill get spayed and get my double teeth taken out. Foster mom has been calling me gator. I didnt think that was very nice. Ive gained some weight but I need to be a healthier weight before surgery.

Foster mom is taking me to her favorite vet tomorrow. I am getting a general wellness check up. Ill let you know how that goes

My surgery is going to be very expensive. This estimate was almost $8k. Yikes. Yall have been so great helping me. I hope you can help me a little bit more. Thanks Diva!

Update 6/2/23: Foster Mommy said the nice dogtor hoped that the test results would come in today. But if not they should be here Monday. Fingers crossed that they figure out what I got. Foster mommy said the good news is that the ammonia levels have finally entered the normal range. She says its all do to the right meds and right food.

Update 6/1/23: I met a lot of nice people today. They ran quite a few CT tests. I got to sleep thru them. But the best part was when foster mommy came to get me. There was an audible gasp of how precious, how cute when the staff brought me into the lobby to get discharged. I covered foster mommy's face with kisses. Time to go home to foster brothers, sister and foster dad.

Update 5/31/23: Today I feel a little better. I can stand up to eat my food. Now Foster mom only needs to wash my face. I need to fatten up. Tomorrows my big day wish me luck!

Update 5/30/23: Diva had a bad night last night. Poor baby woke up at 1am and 3am crying. We had to clean her crate and give her a bath to clean her up. During the day, she gets meds, eats and goes back to sleep. Ive never had a puppy that sleeps so much. We are eagerly awaiting the consultation with the surgeon later this week.

Update 5/29/23: Diva update! Who knew lactulose would be so hard to find. The Doggie ER didnt have any in stock. So pretty Diva went begging today. She lucked into a veterinarian that was open. But they wanted to see her before they would fill the prescription. Fortunately, everyone there loved her and took pictures. Its so hard to stay pretty all the time when you just dont feel good. Thank you all so much for helping her get better. She sees the specialist later this week for more tests to help determine what is going on with our Diva.

Updated Bio 5/28/23: Sweet Diva and her foster mom spent hours at the ER today. Her ammonia values had skyrocketed leaving her wobbly on her feet and lethargic. There are possible diagnosis mean more testing to try and narrow it down. We have altered her medicine and changed her food. Unfortunately, her prior owners didnt realize the importance of administering the medicine on a continual basis which has put Diva in dire straits.

Foster mom sees fleeting moments of the wonderful puppy she should be. She snuggles nicely into your neck. Gives sweet kisses. Loves to sit on your lap. Like a toddler she doesnt always want to eat. But tonight she decided licking the counter was fun.

Thank you to everyone that has helped us help Diva. Please keep the positive thoughts coming. Diva isnt out if the woods yet.

Initial Bio 5/27/23: Pretty Diva just became a UYR dog. She was at the specialist in January and came out with a tentative diagnosis of Liver shunt disease. Her owners having exhausted all means to help her came to UYR to get Diva the help she needs. This 3lb. 7 month old baby is being fostered in Ft Lauderdale. Diva will start the extensive testing to determine what is wrong with this munchkin. At this time we will not be accepting any adoption applications until we have a medical diagnosis and we are able to get her medical issues under control. Can you help?

To date we've spent $2301.22 on Diva's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $4032.12 in donations.

Updated bio 5/18/23: Hi Freddie here!! I just came into my foster home a couple days ago and what my foster Mom knows so far that I am a wonderful lover boy, and snuggle buddy.

So please keep your eye on me for updates coming soon!!

To date we've spent $0 on Mario's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $0 in donations.

Mario

Mario is a little Yorkie boy weighing only 4.2 pounds. He is 5 years old and is being fostered in Palm Coast, FL.

Dogs being fostered in Florida must be adopted within the State of Florida.

updated bio 5/18/23: Meet Mario, one of you UYRs newest pups to come into rescue. Mario is a very sweet 5 year old little boy who came into rescue when his owners were no longer able to care for him. It was apparent he had suffered from neglect as he was severely matted and his hair had grown over his eyes. After a bath and some grooming, he has become a beautiful little boy.

While hes only been in foster care for a couple days, his foster mom has noticed that he is a really sweet and loving little guy. He just wants to be near his person. He loves attention and loves cuddling. So far he is fitting in perfectly in his foster home environment and is getting along just fine with the other pups in the household. Mario will be receiving some veterinary care shortly including a neuter and a badly needed dental.

Stay tuned for updates on Mario as his foster mom gets to know him a little better.

Initial Bio: 5/16/2023: Mario is a sweet pup and as we learn more about Mario we will keep everyone posted. He will be going to the vet soon and has just entered his foster home.

THANK YOU TO MICKY'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Diane Marvin, Linda Woody, Peggy McCain

Micky is a Yorkie boy weighing 6.2 pounds. He is 9 years old and is being fostered in Stuart FL.

Dogs being fostered in Florida must be adopted within the State of Florida.

Update 6/3/23: Micky is a happy boy and feeling so much better since his dental surgery. He engages in the cutest play sessions with his foster family's Yorkies and gets along well with everyone. Micky would be happy as a single pup if his person was home more often than not, but would also be great in a home with other small dogs to play with. Micky is "chill" and easy to care for. He loves a good lap and he loves a good nap! He thoroughly enjoys being outside for walks during the cooler parts of the day, and goes right to the door when he sees his leash. This guy is a keeper!

Updated bio 5/24/23: Micky did great yesterday at his vet visit. His senior bloodwork panel was perfect, and he did well under anesthesia. Micky arrived with terrible teeth...the vet even commented on how sad it was and how miserable he must have been. He only had 17 teeth left and all were extracted yesterday. I think we are fortunate that his overall health and bloodwork is normal considering the extent of the dental disease. He was also neutered and chipped yesterday. He will be on Clavamox for another week. The vet noted two small growths on two different legs and said they were not of concern, so she did not remove them. Mickey is looking for his forever home and his foster mom is accepting applications at this time.

Updated Bio 5/18/23: Micky is a sweet senior boy weighing in at 6.2 pounds. He is 9 years young. We are just getting to know Micky so there will be more information and photos coming soon. So far, we have found him to be friendly and easy-going. He has a good appetite and gives kisses which will be much more pleasant after his dental! Micky has already enjoyed a few short walks since his arrival and is well-behaved on a leash. He is happy and clean, and getting some rest after a long journey to be with his new foster family. We really love his pretty gold coloring.

Mickys wellness visit with the vet is on Thursday, and next week he will be neutered, microchipped and receive a much-needed dental cleaning. Please stay tuned as we learn more about this adorable little guy!

For inquiries please email Diane at proudyorkiemom@gmail.com.

Initial Bio: 5/16/2023: Micky came to UYR from the shelter and has just arrived at his foster home. As we learn more about him we will update his bio.

To date we've spent $787.17 on Micky's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $300 in donations.

For more information, contact my foster parents at: mbslen@yahoo.com.

I am a totally sweetheart!

I am a sweet girl!

To date we've spent $242.39 on Molly's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $0 in donations.

Molly

Molly is a sweet Yorkie girl weighing 9 pounds. She is 9 years old and is being fostered in Orlando, FL.

Dogs being fostered in Florida must be adopted within the State of Florida.

Updated bio 5/27/23: Molly is a 9 year old 9 lb. girl who was picked up from a shelter. Molly has settled in nicely at her foster home. Who would have thought this pretty girl could get any prettier, but after her recent groom, she sure did! She is a sweet, happy, calm gal who loves to cuddle on the couch with her people, go for walks, (she has an adorable spring in her step!), follow foster mom everywhere, and watch the world go by.

She has a great appetite and is at a healthy weight. She's good in the car and likes to go on adventures as long as it's not to the vet! Speaking of vetting, Molly's teeth were woefully neglected, so she is scheduled for a much needed dental on 6/6. She is almost completely potty trained. She runs right to the door to be let out. A fenced backyard is a huge plus as she needs to go out when she asks and not wait for a walk. She should be let out often, to reinforce her potty skills. She also loves to be outside on the deck cuddling with foster mom. She doesn't play with toys, or seem to be interested in playing with her foster sister, so she probably wouldn't be a good playmate for another pup. She would make a great only dog.

Molly was sleeping on the big bed with her foster parents, but got a little feisty with her foster sister if she barked during the night or jumped off to go potty. She sleeps in a comfy big pen in the bedroom and seems happy to be there. Molly is the perfect companion for someone who loves to be loved by a pup. If you are interested in adopting this pretty girl, please fill out an application at unitedyorkierescue.org.

Updated bio 5/18/23: Pretty Molly is a very good girl. She's just been at her foster home for a short time, but she seems very happy to be here. She gets along with her foster sister, walks well on a leash, and follows FM and FD everywhere. She sleeps between the pillows on the big bed and doesn't get up all night. We are waiting for her bloodwork and she has an appointment for a dental and a spay, but the vet says she looks like a healthy girl. She's active, and can jump on and off the couch and bed, but she's a calm pup. She loves to be in the yard, so a fenced yard is a plus. She seems to be potty trained. More to come on this cutie.

Initial Bio 5/16/23: Molly has just come into rescue and has an upcoming vet appointment. Please watch for further updates as we get to know her and her needs.

For more information, contact my foster parents at: robinnora442@gmail.com.

THANK YOU TO MONTE'S RESCUE ANGELS!I>

Monte

Monte is a Yorkie Mix boy weighing 16 pounds. He is 8 years old and is being fostered in Vero Beach, FL.

Dogs being fostered in Florida must be adopted within the State of Florida.

Sandy Pagnotta, Nestor Sanchez, Stephanie Slack, Debra Frare, Wendy Henry, Cheryl Scrupski, Yvette Vangeloff

Updated Bio 5/15/23: Good news for Monte, it's taken some adjusting of his food and exercise but he is down to 14.8 lbs, Yay!! He still has a ways to go but is headed in the right direction. He is getting stronger and faster. We have noticed a marked improvement in his ability to get around. He can join me in a chair or couch now, without me having to pick him up! He loves his afternoon walks, he usually gets to go just under a mile. Most of that he can run. So a home with an opportunity for him to exercise like that would be great, or at least a fenced in yard for him to run around in.

When he first came to us, he showed some signs of high anxiety that resulted in constant licking, and chewing. Our vet prescribed some medication. That medication along with some behavior modification, such as redirection and the proper exercise, has shown great improvement in this as well.

His house training has lapsed a bit, but he was recently diagnosed with a severe UTI. We have ruled out bladder stones and the medication is working.

He still needs to be someone's one and only. It will take dedication to keep him on track to being happy and healthy. I promise you, with time, patience and love, it will be worth it. He is a sweet cuddle bug and a neighborhood favorite.

If you are interested in adopting him or would like more information. You can fill out an application at www.unitedyorkierescue.org or email his foster Mom at yorkiesrj2006@gmail.com.

Updated bio 4/13/23: This handsome fella with one ear up and one ear down is 8 years old and weighs a terribly overweight 16 lbs. The vet said that he should be in the 10-12 lbs. range. Our goal is to get him to 12 lbs. and see if that is enough. His new food and exercise program started on day one in his foster home. Monte was so bloated and gassy, but just a few days on his new program, he is feeling much better.

When Monte came to us not only was he overweight he also had very long nails. They were so long he had a hard time getting any traction and had a slight limp. We trimmed them right away and he is walking much better. I was surprised that he is as active as he is, or at least wants to be and with the right home he will get the attention that he needs. We think at one time he was house-trained, but by not giving him the chance to get outside enough, his training had lapsed. The good news is he is relearning pretty quickly. We are crate training him and he is tolerating it well. This is the best way to keep him from getting into mischief! If he finds paper, socks, or anything he can fit in his mouth he will chew it and sometimes eat it. He also gets his feelings hurt if he isn't getting all of the attention, he will hang his head and leave the room. His preference is to be with his humans by himself. He loves belly rubs, his ears scratched and seems very grateful for any attention that he gets. He really is very sweet. Monte loves to walk which is good and walks very well on a leash. He has been friendly with all people and other small dogs.

Monte will have his dental in two weeks then will be ready for adoption. He will need a home where he can be someone's one and only. A home that is active and can keep him on track with his diet and exercise will be best for him. He enjoys being outside and would love a fenced in yard, but that's not a deal breaker. We know that more of his personality will emerge in the next few weeks and we can't wait to see how he transforms into the wonderful little boy that we know he will be. So stay tuned for more updates. He will see a professional groomer soon and updated pictures will be posted as well.

Initial Bio 4/8/23: Monte came to UYR as an owner surrender today. He seems to be very friendly so far. He needs all vetting to be updated. As we learn more about Monte we will post again soon.

To date we've spent $1568.97 on Monte's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $185 in donations.

For more information, contact my foster parents at: yorkiesrj2006@gmail.com.

THANK YOU TO ROCKY'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Jackie Texidor, Sandy Pagnotta, Wendy Fuhrmaneck, DeAnn Deutsch, Sandy Pagnotta, Nestor Sanchez

Rocky

Rocky is a sweet yorkie boy weighing just 4 pounds. He is 9 years old and is being fostered in Riverview, FL.

Dogs being fostered in Florida must be adopted within the State of Florida.

updated bio 5/18/23: Rocky is ready for adoption! He had his teeth & ear checkup, which he passed with flying colors. Rocky still needs to gain some weight. The vet estimates a healthy weight for him is 4.5#. Right now he is a little over 3.5#.

Rocky is eating much better. He will eat only a little bit of dry kibble or wet food from his plate. He hates bowls. He prefers to eat from your hand or have it dropped on the ground in front of him. He is still getting syringe fed 2x a day with liquid food due to not eating fully on his own. His foster mom has been trying to get him to eat on his own, but it's a work in progress. Being tiny, he needs to go out frequently during the day. Sometimes he will use the potty pad.

Rocky loves to sleep in. He is definitely a velcro dog- not high energy. He is always following a member of his foster family, sitting on their lap, or lying next to them curled up in a ball.

He is a chill dog and does tend to bark at strangers sometimes. Rocky loves his squeaky toys. He gets along wonderfully with his foster brother, but has growled and snapped at dogs when on walks.

Rocky didn't know to be affectionate when he first got to his foster home. Now he will give kisses and paw at you to pet him. He loves snuggling!

His foster mom had to trim his face hair super short after the dental, but it is starting to grow back, and hair is coming in on his ears.

His foster mom has a few requirements for his forever home:

-fenced in yard is not required

-if there is another dog in the home, there must be a meet and greet with the other pet as well.

-someone who is home the majority of the time due to him having to go potty frequently and needing to be hand fed at times.

-a stay at home parent, work from home or retired person is ideal for Rocky's forever home

-adoptive family is required to have a dental in 3 months to remove 2 more additional teeth that need to come out.

Updated bio 4/30/23: Recovery from Rocky's dental was pretty rough for him and his foster mom. He had 11 badly infected teeth removed. His foster mom couldn't get him to eat or take his medicine after the dental. After numerous trips to the vet and Petsmart, she ended up having to syringe feed him for a week. He dislikes wet food (and his foster mom tried a lot of different types) and prefers Solid Gold mini dry food. He will rarely eat on his own, but it is getting better. His foster mom has to sit next to him and put his food on the floor in order to get him to eat it.

Rocky loves sleeping under the covers. He currently sleeps in his crate that is open to his play pen at night, but his foster mom thinks he would be just fine in the bed. He just started wagging his tail this week!!

He gets along well with his foster brother, but hasn't been so sure of most dogs he has met while on walks. He can still be skittish towards people at times.

He is only 4 pounds, so he needs to go outside to potty frequently during the day. He sometimes has accidents in the house, almost always poop. He will need a home where there is someone home to frequently let him out.

He will need an additional 2 teeth removed within the next 3 to 6 months. The adopter will have to sign an addendum that they will cover this.

His foster mom continues to work on his eating, potty training and socialization.

Rocky goes for a vet follow up in 2 weeks to recheck his teeth and ears as well as to insert a microchip.

Updated bio 4/10/23: Rocky is approximately 8-9 years old and came to UYR as an owner surrender. He is currently underweight and has many health issues to overcome. He is only 3.6 pounds! He came to us with feces caked in his hair as well as chunks of matted hair all over. Once Rocky is feeling better, his foster mom will give him a proper grooming.

This tiny fella takes some time to warm up to people and trust them. If you bother him too much, like when his foster mom was trying to clean his ears and cut the mats out his hair, he will snap at you. His foster mom believes this is more out of fear. After the weekend with his foster family, Rocky is a snuggler who loves to look out the window. He is a fan of small rubber squeaky toys.

Rocky is a great leash walker. He can only use step-in harnesses, as he freaks out if you try to put anything over his head. Sometimes just getting the step-in harness can be challenging for his foster mom. He likes to sleep in his crate, which stays open and goes into his play pen.

Rocky has major ear infections in both ears and severely accessed teeth. Due to the teeth pain, we believe this is why he is so hesitant to eat.

Rocky has a long road of recovery ahead of him. He has such a fun personality despite not feeling well. He is sure to be a spunky fella once he puts on some weight and his ear infections are resolved. Stay tuned as Rocky is on the mend. Rocky's personality is still coming out, so it will be 2 weeks or more until his foster mom can determine what environment Rocky will do best in for his forever home.

Rocky's vet bills are already piling up, and will continue to do so with his dental and teeth removal along with the proper after care. Please consider donating to help Rocky get the care he needs.

Initial Bio 4/7/23: Rocky came to UYR as an owner surrender. He is a very small little fellow that needs some TLC. He needs to be vetted and groomed. Once we know more we will post updates.

To date we've spent $1816.65 on Rocky's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $410 in donations.

Meet Scooter, a sweet 8 year old, 12 lb. Yorkie boy being fostered in Central IA. Only applications within a 100 mile radius of Des Moines, IA will be considered.

5/25 Great news! Scooter's cruciate ligament and luxating patella repairs were a success! He is home resting, and recovery is going well! Recovery will take 6-8 weeks and will include post surgical rehabilitation exercises that foster mamma will do with Scooter to help his range of motion, with the goal to help him begin re-using back leg again eventually.

Scooter will also need to continue working on weight management, as he is carrying too much weight over his hind quarters, abdomen and ribs and is at risk of diabetes and arthritis if not addressed.

We are slowly starting short walks again at potty time. Scooter has been very cooperative and receptive to the rehabilitation exercises and gentle walks. His foster family is very proud of him and hopes to continue good progress.

Scooter has 2 week post operative veterinarian check to confirm his recovery is going well. We will share an update at that time.

UYR has spent $2,963.17 towards Scooter's vet bills to date, and with support of generous donors has received $812 in donations. We would certainly appreciate continued donations as we anticipate additional expenses with Scooter's post operative care follow up visit.

Thank You for your generous support for Scooter!

5/16/23 Update: Scooter had a much needed dental which resulted in the loss of 13 teeth, in addition to the many teeth he had lost previously. He's still has a great appetite, and is able to eat his meals with substantially more comfort post dental!

X-rays confirmed Scooter indeed has a torn cruciate ligament in his right knee, luxating patella and quite a bit of inflammation. He had a surgical consult and labs today, and we were happy to hear that he has been approved for surgery next week!

Scooter's foster mom is working with him on weight reduction which includes a very strict diet, and limited exercise/walks, in preparation of surgery and post surgery. Weight loss will be gradual over time.

We appreciate the donations received to date, and would appreciate continued donations towards the costly procedure to repair his knee with the goal to have him walking pain free. Please continue to stay tuned for updates. We have great hopes for this sweet little fellow!

Initial Bio 5/10/23: Scooter was tearfully surrendered to United Yorkie Rescue by his current family due to high cost medical issues. His family received Scooter when his original owner passed away.

Scooter's initial veterinary exam revealed he has severe dental disease, minor skin issues, and is substantially overweight. Additionally, Scooter is non-weight bearing on right hind leg, but he does still manage to get around. While he's is able to get around, he is not able to climb up and down stairs, so needs to be carried up and down stairs. The veterinarian suspects Scooter might have a cruciate ligament tear, which could require surgery. Updates will be provided once Scooter sees a specialist. Meanwhile, he has had a nice refreshing bath & groom and is scheduled for much needed dental appointment this week.

Despite Scooter's health issues, he has has a wonderful personality, very affectionate and well behaved. He loves to be held like a baby, and cuddle with people.

Given Scooter's current health state, we anticipate high cost expenses for his medical care and treatment. Please consider donating towards Scooter's extensive care to help us get this sweet boy on track to recovery by clicking on the PayPal Donate button on Scooter's Looking for Love profile.

Please reach out to Scooter's foster mamma with any questions iayorkiemum@gmail.com

Thank You.

To date we've spent $2963.17 on Scooter's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $1362 in donations.

CASH IS NOW READY FOR ADOPTION!!

Cash bio update: 05/01/2023

Cash had successful surgery to repair his left leg fracture on 04/03/2023. He has recovered well and is walking on his leg with no problems. A follow up x-ray will be done early next week and he should be ready for adoption. Cash has boundless energy and loves to play. He will benefit from basic obedience training when he reaches his furever home.

The veterinarian staff have commented that Cash may be a MaltiPoo. Cash is a loving little boy who has been getting along famously with his foster brothers and sister. We are working on potty training and Cash is making progress.

We are kindly requesting for your donations that would help for his care. Please consider clicking on the PayPal button at the UYR website to donate.

Those interested in more information and updates on Cash we encourage you to go to the home page www.unitedyorkierescue.org or email the foster dad at jam4bama@unitedyorkierescue.org.

Updated Bio 3/29/23

Cash has continued to do well even though he has a cast on his left leg. Poor Cash, his leg fracture is not healing well, and he will need corrective surgery. This sweet boy will need to have hardware placed in his little leg to correct the severe fracture he sustained when he was hit by a car. The orthopedic surgery is scheduled for early April. His recovery will continue for 4-6 weeks. At this time, he is not ready for adoption but will be as soon as he is back on his four legs.

We are kindly requesting for your donations that would help for his care. Please consider clicking on the PayPal button at the UYR website to donate. The surgery will be very expensive but needed to give Cash his best life.

Those interested in more information and updates on Cash we encourage you to go to the home page www.unitedyorkierescue.org or email the foster dad at jam4bama@unitedyorkierescue.org.

Updated Bio 3/3/23

Poor Cash came to us on 02/24/2023 from a shelter after being treated at an emergency room for a broken left leg. He was hit by a car. Cash does have a cast but is moving around very well. Cash visited the veterinarian on 02/28/2023 and received his vaccinations and a microchip. Cash was negative for heartworms, other parasites and his blood work looked good.

Cash is scheduled to be neutered in the next coming week. X-rays of his left leg and a consultation with an Orthopedics veterinarian is also scheduled. Cash is not on any special diet and is tolerating adult dog dry food well.

Cash is a loving little boy who has been getting along famously with his foster brothers and sister. He has only had a few accidents in the house, and we are working on his potty training and once he gets neutered, we believe we will see improvement.

At this time Cash is not ready for adoption due to the special care needed to take care of his broken leg. Please consider clicking on the PayPal button at the UYR website to donate to his care.

Those interested in more information and updates on Cash we encourage you to go to the home page www.unitedyorkierescue.org or email the foster dad at jam4bama@unitedyorkierescue.org.

Initial Bio 2/27/23

Cash came into rescue Friday due to a shelter reaching out because he has a broken left leg and needs special care to get all healed up to find him the best home. We arent sure about what happened to cause the broken leg but a shelter is no place to heal. He will be getting all the special care he needs and will heal in his loving foster home until he is ready for adoption. Please consider clicking on the paypal button below to donate to his care. Will update soon when we learn more about Cashs personality.

To date we've spent $4112.61 on Cash 's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $485.87 in donations.

The Veterinary clinic reached out to UYR to see if we could assist this sweet girl who had no where else to go. Paris Grace is a peekapoo however UYR was willing to help even though she wasn't a yorkie, she is one of those what we call wanna be yorkies. After being in her foster home for a short period she started to chew on her tail and actually chewed through the tip of her tail foster mom to her to the veterinarian to evaluate... now here comes the third, thing after examination it was discovered that she had no feeling in her tail. The veterinarian felt like her chewing would continue due to lack of feeling in her tail, so it was decided to amputate. She has recovered nicely from this surgery. She still needs to be spayed. Due to her age, she is taking gabapentin to help with her movement, this does not slow her down. She follows foster dad all over the house.

Pocket

Pocket is a 10 year old (estimated) 7 pound Yorkie Mix boy being fostered in Ashland City, TN. Out of State applications will be considered if it is a good fit for Pocket

THANK YOU TO POCKET'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Debora Robinson, Jan Freeman

Updated Bio 6/1/23

Pocket is doing very well since first coming into rescue. For those that dont know his story when Pocket came to us he had a Tumor on his left ear, ear infections, a severe upper respiratory infection, mild arthritis in his hip, mild dental disease, enlarged prostate and bilateral medial patella luxation grade 2, and he has a stinky skin infection. He was started on medications to help clear up the skin and respiratory issues and he has special drops for his ears to help with that infection, his skin is clearing up and the upper respiratory infection is gone. Pocket saw the Ear Specialist today , they recommended the regular vet remove the tumor and send it off to see if it is cancer or not before we due extensive ear canal surgery to remove any maybe smaller pieces of the tumor down in the ear canal as the surgery has risks and could cause Pocket to be deaf. She also recommended that he might need to see a dermatologist and be on a special diet to help get his ears all cleared up or in a comfortable state for Pocket to live out the rest of his life without constant ear problems. We will get Pocket scheduled for his neuter, dental and tumor removal within the next couple of weeks. Then we will schedule with the Dermatologist if needed to see what is recommended care for Pockets ears and skin. The neuter will help with Pockets enlarged prostate. Foster Mom said Pocket is a sweet, smart boy who rides well in a car, he enjoys sleeping with her and the other dogs in the bed and he doesnt have any separation anxiety when foster mom goes to work as long as he has another doggie or person around. He loves to play and be petted. We are working on house training and the neuter will also help with that. Pocket is an avid marker so using a belly band is ideal for this sweetheart. Since he was at a shelter we know nothing about Pockets Past so all we can do is move forward with what we know and give him the best care and find him the best home. If your interested in Pocket please fill out and application or send foster mom an email. If you would like to donate to his much needed care please click on the paypal button underneath this bio. Pocket says thank you all for helping him feel better.

Initial Bio 5-17-23

Meet the sweetest doggie ever, Pocket! Pocket came into rescue because he found himself in a shelter along with 2 other yorkies at the same time. The other two were able to be adopted but he has medical needs so the shelter reached out to rescue. Pocket has seen the Vet in Rescue yesterday and this is what was discovered. Pocket has a Tumor on his left ear, ear infections, a severe upper respiratory infection, mild arthritis in his hip, mild dental disease, enlarged prostate and bilateral medial patella luxation grade 2, and he has a stinky skin infection. He is now started on medications to help clear up the skin and respiratory issues and he has special drops for his ears to help with that infection. He has been referred to the ear specialist to see when the tumor can be removed and then he will be neutered at the same time which will help with the enlarged prostate. In the meantime he will be receiving medical baths to also help with the skin issues. Despite being so sick right now, Pocket is a loving, happy boy and he is eating very well. Please donate to his special care so we can get this boy on the road to recovery and get him a forever home he deserves. Stay tuned for update.

Bella Stella

THANK YOU TO BELLA STELLA'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Bella Stella

Meet Bella Stella, a sweet 11 year old, 14 pound little Yorkie girl being fostered in Azle, TX. Only TX residents will be considered. Bella came in with her sister, Bessie.

4/29/23 Update: These sisters came into rescue in May 2022. Bella Stella came to us with uncontrolled diabetes. Foster mom took the girls to the vet and quickly, working with the vet, was able to get her diabetes under control. UYR paid for all the testing, the insulin needles, and insulin to get her healthier. Over the next few weeks foster mom noticed there was something still off with Bella Stella. Another blood test showed that she had a life threatening disease - Cushings. Bella Stella started on medication to control the Cushings. Bella Stella had two strikes against her but thanks to UYR, she receives insulin and medication daily. The medication for Cushings costs $100 per month and added to the costs of insulin and supplies, specialty dog food for diabetics, as well as vet visits, UYR spends well in excess of $3,00 per year for her medical needs. Bella Stella also sees a veterinary ophthalmologist for her chronic dry eye. The eye drops for that costs approximately $100 per bottle. Bella Stella is stable but her eye sight is nearly non-existent but she is smart and knows her way around foster moms house and yard. Bella Stella is a trooper. She receives two shots of insulin a day, medication for Cushings, and two types of eye drops twice a day. She takes it all in stride, and loves to snuggle on the sofa or in bed next to her sister, Bessie.

Bessie is the every attentive sister to Bella Stella. Bessie is loving, animated and talkative. Bessie alerts foster mom when Bella Stella is out of sight, thinking she needs to come and be with us. Bessie protects her sister and loves her dearly thus these two girls cannot be separated. Bessie is healthy and needs very little but her sister gives her purpose and she needs to be with her.

UYR continues to care for these girls and make sure they are loved and never separated but we need your help with the ongoing financial burden with Bella Stellas medical costs. Please consider helping UYR with the ongoing medical costs and make a tax-deductible donation to United Yorkie Rescue. Thank you to our loyal donners and thank you to those that continue to share the mission of this organization with others.

2/5/23 Update: Bella is stable and works hard to keep up with the pack since her vision is so low. She can navigate the house and yard without much assistance. She loves, loves to eat but foster mom keeps her snacks to a minimum and feeds her only prescription food for a diabetic. Her diabetes is controlled as well as her Cushings illness. Bella Stella and her sister Bessie continue to be bonded and are looking for their forever home. These girls would do well in a home without small children and some that can cuddle with them during the day . Bella Stella still takes medication daily and UYR continues to pay for this. We appreciate all of our doners who continue to help UYR support Bella Stellas medical needs. Please consider donating to UYR so we can continue to take care of this girls medical needs.

11/27/22 Update: Bella Stella continues to do well on her insulin and medication for Cushings. Her vision is very low but she is so smart that she has figured out her way around the house and the yard in just a few months. She continues to use drops in her eyes for dry eye. Her insulin was tweeked just a little about a week ago after a glucose curve showed her glucose was a little high. She loves to snuggle and will do anything for belly rubs and neck scratches. She is a very sweet girl and with her sister Bessie, they make a pretty good team. Bella Stella is on insulin, and two different eye drops plus her medication for Cushings. The doctor bills add up quickly. Please consider giving to UYR this Holiday season as we continue to work to keep these girls healthy and comfortable.

10/15/22 Update: Bella and Bessie are still waiting on their forever homes. In the meantime, foster mom has them on good, healthy dog food from Royal Canine and one is especially for diabetic dogs like Bella Stella. Bella and Bessie are sweet as pie and just love tummy scratches. Little Bellas eyes are a little better. Her vision is low but she sees the Vet Ophthalmologist about every two months to have her eyes checked and get medicine to help her produce tears since she has dry eyes. This little senior lady loves to sit in your lap, get her head scratched and cuddle. She takes insulin to keep her diabetes managed and she is on medication for Cushings. She will have another blood draw in a month to check her drug levels for the Cushings. She and her sister Bessie check on each other periodically and remain close to each other. Even though Bella has a hard time seeing, her sister stays close and Bella knows her way around the house and yard. UYR continues to pay for her meds and vet visits so any help with her ongoing expenses would be appreciated!

08/21/22: Bella Stella along with her sister, Bessie, are doing so well. These girls are a bonded pair and must be adopted together. Bella Stella was diagnosed with Cushing's and it is being managed by medication. Cushing's is a condition that causes the adrenal glands to produce too much cortisol. She is also a diabetic and that is being managed with insulin. She must stay on a prescription diet food in order to manage her diabetes. Finally, due to her diabetes, her vision is low and she is not producing her own tears. She is seeing a veterinary ophthalmologist and being treated with a couple of eye medications. Despite it all, she is happy, loving, and loves to snuggle. She is very smart, she has learned to map the house and yard and can navigate both very well with her low vision. Bella loves her sister Bessie and likes to be in the same vicinity where she is. Bella is resilient and deserves a forever home with her sister Bessie to live out her life. With her ongoing medications, doctor visits, and prescription, UYR could use your help. If you can help financially with her care we would be very grateful. Any amount will help towards her ongoing expenses.

5/24/22 Initial Bio: Meet beautiful Bella Stella. Bella is no longer a chunky 15 pounds but is a healthy 12 pound 10 year old Yorkie spayed female. Bella came in with her sister Bessie and they must be adopted together since they are a bonded pair. These two have been together since they were puppies, but from two different litters. Bella, unfortunately, developed diabetes last year. Her prior owner had her and Bessie since they were pups but due to circumstances beyond her control, she could no longer afford the vet bills and she lovingly surrendered then to UYR where foster mom has worked with her, under the direction of the vet, to get her insulin levels stabilized and put her on a prescription diet for diabetic dogs. During that time, Bella lost several pounds and is feeling so much better. The diabetes has taken a toll on Bellas eyesight and her vision is low. She has an appointment with the veterinary ophthalmologist very soon so the vision she does have, can be preserved. Bella and Bessie are easy going girls who want to hang out with you, roam in the yard, and just be loved. Bella and Stella will need an adopter that can dedicate time and effort to Bellas medical needs. This includes insulin, prescription dog food, eye drops and any other medical needs that may arise. Bella is on a schedule that needs to be adhered to for insulin injections and feeding. Bella will be a labor of love but oh goodness, the rewards you will reap from this loving little girl will far outweigh the care she receives from you. Homes with small children is not appropriate for these senior girls. They need a calm, attentive, loving environment to live out their life with each other. If you think you have what it takes for Bella and Stella, please fill out an adoption application using the link below.

To date we've spent $4695.51 on Bella Stella's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $865 in donations.

Even barks to tell his foster when he is ready to get in the bed for the night. Dont pass this beautiful guy up. He is such a loving boy.

1/28/23 Update: Handsome Brooks had his dental surgery on Friday. His remaining teeth were removed. This pretty little boy is so sweet, quiet, and loves to be petted. He is housetrained and loves to go outside. He also is very good in the car and on a leash. His socialization has definitely improved by showing him a lot of love.

Just got Brooks about a week ago from the Killeen Animal Shelter. He was such a mess. Pictures are after grooming. His coat had to be taken down pretty short since he was so matted. He had a visit to his dogter on January 5th to have exam and complete lab work up and he is heart worm negative He has his dental surgery the last week of January. He is blind in the left eye with retinol apathy, a couple of other issues that will be rechecked in four weeks. Brooks is not truly socialized yet; however, he is slowly coming out of his shell and will let me love on him at times. Brooks has adapted pretty well to my home but at times needs assistance to find things due to his loss of sight in one eye. He sleeps in bed with his foster and 3 other fur babies. He is housetrained and loves to go outside. He gets along with my other pups as well. He is a sweetheart who was not taken care of by his owners. He needs to be adopted by someone who is retired or works at home, no children under 12, and in a home with only other small pups. He will require attention and a lot of love.

For more information, contact my foster parents at: txyorkie46@gmail.com.

Davey

Meet sweet Davey. Davey was a very ill little 4lb 10yr Yorkie boy, but is now a stable little baby being fostered in Azle, TX. Davey had went right to the Emergency Critical Care facility in Dallas where he was treated for kidney failure and pancreatitis. Love and care pulled him through

THANK YOU TO THE RESCUE ANGELS WHO DONATED TO DAVEY'S GOFUNDME FUNDRAISER!
Sandra Wendt, Ginger Mills, Cheryl Scrupski, Cindy Mitchell-Clark, Annette Weeks, Kelly Bruce, Mary Matejka, Ula Fronczyk, Jackie Sorrells, Bret Park, Leslie Corbell, Valarie Vaughan, Lisa Laderman, Jama Sommers, Liesl Okuda, Terry Danner, Janet Davidson, Amy Ashford, Maria Littlefield, Tara Davis, Ronni Ascagni, Lyn Loiselle Greenspan, Karry Rogers, Alexa Socha Rowan, Kelly Bruce, Barbara Behrens, Taren Hill, Chris Ahern, Kim Maise

Update 4/29/23: Davey came back into rescue with UYR on August 20, 2021 while he was fighting for his life in the Emergency room. His loving adoptive mom had been a victim of COVID and lost her job. She was unable to pay for the rising medical costs for Davey. UYR willing took him. After nearly a week of life saving care, Davey went to live with foster mom. Foster mom worked with the vet and confirmed he had kidney disease. He was placed on a renal friendly diet and continued to stabilize and do very well. Three months later, this little guy began to run a fever without any other symptoms. The vet put him on an antibiotic but the next morning, foster mom noticed his right eye was beginning to bulge slightly. Another trip to the emergency room and costly tests showed he had an infection from one of his molars that extended behind his eye. Again, Davey was fighting for his life. The wonderful veterinary staff worked to keep him out of pain and save his life and as a result, he was home a week later. Davey continued to improve and has remained healthy since that last hospitalization. Davey, has lived with foster mom for nearly two years now and spends his days sleeping, eating, and staying close to foster mom. He is aging and is beginning to lose some of his hearing and his vision is low. Davey is still a fighter! He loves going outdoors and he is still called bossy Davey. He is a very persistent barker when letting foster mom know that it is time to eat, he needs more water, or needs to be in foster moms lap.

The specialized food for Davey is costly but is necessary to keep his kidneys functioning. Davey is a fighter and deserves every bit of care and love that we can give him. Wont you help us pay for his medical and food bills with a donation to UYR? If it was not for our generous donners, Davey would not be alive today. Thank you for your continued to support to keep our little fighter healthy and happy as he lives out his golden years in love and comfort.

Update 2/5/23: This little boy is feisty and will let you know when he is hungry or wants to go outside or just to be cuddled. This little guy has fought hard through two separate instances of life threatening illness in the past and continues to do well. We so appreciate your support and thank you for your continued support as Davey is on eye medication and a special diet due to kidney disease.

11/27/22 Update: Little 4 lb Davey continues to do very well. He was at the vet last week for a check up and while he does have chronic kidney disease, he is otherwise healthy. Davey continues to remain on a diet for his kidney disease and live his best life. Daveys prescription food is not cheap and while we have Davey stable and doing very well, he could still use our support. Please keep UYR in mind this Holiday season for your holiday giving.

10/15/22 Update: Davey is our little 4 pound senior boy that has 9 lives like a cat. This guy was hospitalized twice and beat the odds both times to stay alive. He does have chronic kidney disease which is managed with his diet. He is a sweet boy and attaches to his humans. Davey has had many past medical expenses so if you are able to help this little guy, it is very much appreciated. Davey has fought his way back from near death twice and foster mom makes sure he stays healthy and loved. He he still hoping for his forever home! Please complete an application using the link below.

Update 8/21/22: Davey is healthy and happy. His condition is stable and he still has that fighting spirit that helped him weather through two hospitalizations where he was critical and kidney disease. He continues to stay on prescription food for his kidney disease and his history of pancreatitis. His is an older guy so his vision is low but he loves, loves to snuggle. He is continuing to live out his life with his foster mom and remains glued to her side. If you are interested in meeting this little guy, please go to the link below this bio to complete an online adoption request. Davey's health is well managed now; he continues with his regular vet checkups and prescription food. UYR would appreciate any monetary donations to help with the cost of providing his care. Thank you!

Update 3/20/22: Davey is doing great! Thanks to everyone that donated and helped with his vet bills these past months. Davey is maintaining is weight; he had a checkup last month and received a good report. He still has chronic kidney disease and foster mom monitors his fluid intake and eating habits. Davey continues to eat his prescription dog food to control his kidney disease. He is happy, healthy and a typical dog enjoying his life from the comfort of foster moms lap. Davey will continue to be monitored by the vet and stay on his special prescription diet for the reminder of his life. United Yorkie Rescue appreciates all the donations made to help this guy live out his life happy and healthy.

UPDATE November 13, 2021 We have good news and potentially bad news about Davey. Keep in mind, this boy is a fighter. The great news is that the CT Scan showed that Davey did not have a mass behind his eye but instead he has an abscess that appears to be coming from his mouth. This is good news. Once the abscess was confirmed, the hospital started Davey on IV antibiotics and hoped he might be eating by today. A call from the veterinary internist this morning was not as good. The swelling in Daveys face and around the eye has began to go down but the eye itself will not close. The vet staff are keeping his eye lubricated and the ophthalmologist is working with his team to try to save the eye. The internist needs to keep Davey in the hospital and hopes that they will see some improvement in the swelling as the day goes on. The abscess is being cultured and we hope to learn soon what type of infection he is fighting. The other good news is that Daveys fever is gone however, the vet did blood work and his sugar levels are a little low but that could be due to him not eating for several days however the vet is keeping a close eye on him. On Monday, the veterinarian team will make a decision about Daveys eye if the swelling has not subsided. They may need to take the eye out and clean out all the infection but we are in a holding pattern until then. This little guy is being kept comfortable the most important part - and receiving lots of care. Please continue to support United Yorkie Rescue. If the vet team needs to do surgery on Monday, that will be another expense for this little guy plus continued support in the hospital. As we come up on this Thanksgiving season and the spirit of giving, we would appreciate you thinking of us as we continue to help Davey fight off this infection. We appreciate all of you that have given to this guy and for your positive thoughts and continued prayers. We still need your help and ask that you consider giving to United Yorkie Rescue. Continue to send prayers and positive thoughts for this little fighter.

Updated bio 11/11/21 Davey update - We need your help again with this little guy!!!! Davey has been doing great until yesterday, November 10, 2021. Foster mom noticed he was not acting like himself and with his history of kidney disease and pancreatitis, she was not taking any chances and had him in the vet that morning. Daveys temperature was 104 and his blood work showed he had an infection somewhere but the vet was not sure where. The vet started him on an antibiotic and told Foster Mom to watch him and call if he was not better the next morning.

This morning, November 11, 2021, foster mom immediately saw that Davey had a problem with his right eye. It was protruding a bit and oozing. Foster Mom had Davey back in the vet before 9 a.m. The pressure in his right eye was very high and when the vet tried to get him into an ophthalmologist, they could not see him so the Daveys wonderful veterinarian suggested I get him in through the animal emergency. If you have never had a dog with a bulging eye, it is very, very painful. Foster Mom took Davey to the animal emergency room/hospital. The vet ophthalmologists, located at the ER hospital, were in surgery so the Emergency room vet sent Daveys records with a tech to the operating room for the ophthalmologist to look at. Ophthalmology, internal medicine, and the emergency vet all agreed that Davey needed to be hospitalized for pain control and he needed a scan to see what is going on behind the eye. His scan is scheduled for tomorrow morning.

Right now, we have incurred a $1,000 emergency room vet bill for today, and the scan will be about $2500 and this does not include the treatment once the vets figure out what is going on with this little 5 pound guy. Davey is a fighter. He fought through pancreatitis, his kidney disease is now well managed through diet and his personality is one that he does not realize he is only 5 pounds. We really need your help financially to continue to treat Davey. As long as Davey wants to fight, we are going to help him and give him every opportunity to beat whatever is going on with him. As always, we so appreciate our donors and every little bit will help. You can go to our website at www.uyr.us to make a donation for Davey. Thank you again for all your help and prayers that this little guy will continue to fight.

10/3/21: Davey is doing much better now. Davey was released from the ER on August 25, 2021 and went back to his original foster mom. The ER wanted to leave the feeding tube in Davey because he was not eating well but UYR decided not to do that and believed he would improve once he was in his foster home. Prior to foster mom picking him up, an appointment was made for Davey to see the regular vet. Davey immediately recognized foster mom when she got him from the ER. Two days later he was seeing the vet. More blood work was done and the vet suggested a liquid nutritional supplement for foster mom to syringe into Davey if he did not eat. Foster mom was also syringing water into Davey several times a day. Daveys blood work showed his kidneys were still not doing well so the vet called a canine nutritionist for a consult to determined the best diet for him since he had pancreatitis and poor kidney function. The vet told foster mom to put Davey on a hepatic food and come back in one month. Dave has been eating canned hepatic food, warmed up of course, and is drinking better but foster mom is still syringing water into him to make sure he is getting enough fluids. Davey will return to the vet in a few days for more blood work and a check up. This little guy has really fought to make it and it shows. He is running, and barking and has decided he will be the alpha even with foster moms 50lb dog. He is eating well and drinking water better but still needs to have water syringed. UYR still needs your help. UYR has spent over $6,000 on this little guy. UYR continues to pay for his vet bills, blood work, prescription food and medical necessities. We so appreciate the people who have donated to this little guy so that we could save his life. Without our wonderful donners, Davey would not have continued to enjoy his life. Davey spends a lot of time in foster moms lap, even when she is working. Davey lets foster mom know he is waiting to be picked up by barking at her. He also barks at her when he is hungry or needs to go outside. Please continue to help us help Davey by donating to UYR. Every little bit helps whether it is $10 or more if you can. Thank you for your continued support and keep checking back for more Davey updates!!!!

08/24/21: Davey is now being fed with a tube inserted into his stomach. We have recently had an ultrasound performed and have pulled some specific tests which are quite costly and have sent off for answers, We are addressing the issues pertaining to his pancreas, kidneys, GI tract and small intestine. Davey is being tube fed as he continues to refuse food and is dropping in weight. Please help if possible. UYR has quite a few medically needy babies at the moment so your donations are greatly appreciated to help any and all of our babies. Thank you and bless you all!

08/21/21: Meet sweet, sweet Davey. Davey originally came to United Yorkie Rescue in December 2018 and was adopted by a loving family in January 2019. Davey's foster mom received a tearful phone call on August 20, 2021 from Davey's family saying they were in the Emergency Room with Davey and the vet staff were currently working on him. Davey had some mild kidney issues when he was adopted but the kidney issues worsened over the past 2-1/2 years. Davey's family has gone through enormous hardship with COVID hitting. They suffered job loss and most recently loss of their home resulting in living with other family members. Davey's family said that he was barely breathing and not moving, his blood pressure was almost non-existent and the vet team was unable to draw his blood. They immediately started him on fluids as he was severely dehydrated and his kidneys were failing. While the vet team worked on him, they informed his family that he was critical and they would need to keep him. The cost to get him well was more than his family could afford so they did the most loving thing that a family can do and reached out to UYR and asked to surrender him back to us to save his life. UYR immediately went into action after the surrender and began working with the animal emergency team to save his life. Little Davey has dropped from 7 pounds to 4 pounds and his kidney function has declined over the past two years. Davey is improving a little. He is standing and perking up but will not eat and the diarrhea continues. Kidney values are improving but it's been 4 days not and we have to see if he can process foods. The emergency team will be inserting a feeding tube to get Davey the nourishment he needs and the medical bills are continuing to climb to well over $5000. Today he is thinner and very sick. We need your help to save Davey's life. Please consider donating toward his care and help us get him on the road to recovery. Use the DONATE link below this bio content and thank you as always for your help.

To date we've spent $15619.16 on Davey's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $5495.85 in donations.

Gigi

THANK YOU TO GIGI'S RESCUE ANGELS!
David and Diana Lavine, Pam Roberts

GiGi

Meet Gigi, a sweet 2 year old, 9 pound Parti Yorkie mix girl being fostered in McKinney, TX. Only TX applicants will be considered.

Update 5/13/23: I have got some wonderful BARKING NEWS about sweet little ole me. I will tell you all about it here in a minute. Well, why wait so here goes,,,

I now live in McKinney, Texas and have a new foster family. Joe Joe came with me here cuz we are both very bonded and love each other very much. Foster Mom calls us the cute married couple. She also calls me Pretty Mama too. That is my big news that I just gotta tell you!!! UYR had suspicions that I might be with puppies when they rescued me from the shelter that had no room for me so they were going to euthanize me and my beau, JoeJoe. They gave us a beautiful chance at life by contacting UYR. UYR jumped into immediate action and got us out of the shelter so we could have a wonderful happy life. That was the last day of March. We were taken to the Dogter to get a full checkup, shots the next day and I was going to get spayed. The Dogter had a suspicion I was with puppies so UYR decided to wait a couple of weeks and I could get a sonogram to check my tummy. Well, yup you guessed it, I was pregnant. So I got a microchip instead on that Dogter's visit. I went back on May 9th and they gave me a X-ray to count puppies and try to guesstimate when they would arrive in our beautiful world. The Dogter could only see one puppy growing inside of me but he said there is a chance that one more was hiding. He told FM that I should be delivering my baby soon, like in the next two weeks. I also got my blood checked to make sure all my panels were where they should be, especially the calcium. You know calcium is very important when you are growing littles in your tummy. My calcium level was great so now FM can relax a little bit and not worry that I am not getting all the nutrients that I need to grow a healthy puppy. FM has been getting my whelping box ready and she has been reading lots of things on the web. She has been buying me things that I might need for the just in case scenarios So please stay tuned for my next pupdate. That should be in the very near future.

So with becoming a Mommy my adoption is on hold for a little while. I will need to nurture and teach my baby about being a puppy. He or she will be need to get puppy shots and then I need to teach him/her the normal doggy things that only a mommy can do. Like teaching my baby its time to learn how to eat puppy food and not only my milk. That way I can dry out so I can get my spay. I sure do not want to raise any more puppies ever again. I tested heartworm positive (on the light side) in my first Dogter visit so we will need to get that taken care of before I can get adopted. FM is thinking maybe around 3 or more months before she will get really serious with my applications to find my furever home. I will be bringing my husband with me because we are very bonded to each other and he loves to be my protector. Yup, we will need to be adopted together. You can still submit an application to FM but just be aware that it will be a while before we get to go home to our furever hoomans. By then I will have told her exactly what I want and need in my new home and what kind of pawrents we are searching for.

If you have any questions please email FM at stickhors@gmail.com

Initial Bio 4/2/23: Look at this precious Parti Yorkie mix baby Gigi! She came into rescue as a breeder dump at the shelter! We were contacted about Gigi and her "husband" JoeJoe as the shelter was a kill shelter and there was zero room and they were to be euthanized that day. Immediately one of our amazing fosters rushed to bring these babies home to safety...sooo here he is!

Gigi is an adorable 2yr old who weighs maybe 8-9lbs. Gigi will be seen at the vet this upcoming Tuesday. She will go through ultrasound testing to see if she is pregnant and will also receive immunizations, Bordetella along with rabies, 4DX for heartworm and tick borne diseases, fecal and blood work.

Gigi is a very scared little girl. She is very shy and you can tell human interaction with her was nil to none! Gigi totally relies on JoeJoe to be very close and she sees him as her protector. There is no aggression at all but JoeJoe is very attentive as if he knows and senses her fear, and stays close to her as if to comfort her.

Being that Gigi was a breeder we may have to wait awhile for an adopter IF she is pregnant. But again, we ask that this baby's prospective adopter please be at home most of the time. She deserves that one on one. Having someone at home will allow this baby to blossom, and learn and love human touch. These breeder babies make such an amazing baby to own as they just love "love" that they have missed. She will be such a blessing to someone's heart,

If you feel you have the home and the love to give this precious baby please fill out the application below. Foster mom can also be reached at the email address below. I look forward to hearing from you!

To date we've spent $604.12 on GiGi's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $125 in donations.

THANK YOU TO JENNIELYNN'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Jennielynn

Meet Jennielynn, an adorable 1-2 year old, 4.4 pound Toy Poodle girl being fostered in Leander, TX. Only Texas residents will be considered.

5/5/23: JennieLynn aka Bertie has recovered very well and quickly and from her spay and dental surgery. She only had to have a few teeth extracted and due to having youth on her side, the surgery did not slow her down one bit. Berties foster parents report that she is full of energy and spunk and LOVES toys. Berties favorite pastime seems to be taking every toy out of the toy basket and arranging them carefully on the living room floor. It appears that she likes to take inventory of her foster familys prized toy collection a few times each day. Bertie is also a big fan of bully bones and enjoys playing soccer with a tiny tennis ball on the back patio. Her foster parents say that she is very entertaining to watch. Bertie is getting used to wearing a harness but is not leash trained yet. Her fosters believe that with time and patience she will eventually enjoy going for walks as she has lots and lots of energy. She has become more trusting of people each day however will still sometimes run away from her foster parents if they walk towards her or try to pick her up. Once "captured" Bertie loves being pet, loved on, and giving lots of kisses. Berties ideal forever home would be with lots of toys, patience, love, and extra time to spend with her on training.

Initial Bio 3/24/23: Jennielynn, aka Bertie, is approximately two years old, four and a half pounds, and is believed to be a toy poodle. Bertie was one of the lucky dogs that were surrendered by a breeder after a tornado destroyed the breeders kennel. Although she is not a Yorkie, UYR was happy to take in this adorable little lady that was severely matted, full of fleas and ticks, and had a bad case of Giardia. Luckily UYR was able to get her in to see one of our wonderful vets the following day to begin treatment for the Giardia, vaccinations, heartworm test, bloodwork, etc. Thankfully she is HW negative and her bloodwork looks great. The doctor says that she has the all too common luxating patella in some of her knees however is in overall great health and is scheduled to be spayed and have a dental cleaning next week.

Bertie is quickly adjusting to living indoors and being part of her foster family. Her foster parents say that she is still a little distrusting of humans. Although she follows them around from room to room , she runs away when they look at, talk to, or try to pick her up. Once they are able to pick her up, she gives lots of kisses and loves to have her head scratched. Bertie has recently discovered what toys are and that they are so much fun to play with. Bertie also enjoys cuddling next to her foster parents and foster sister on the couch as long as its her idea. Her foster parents say that she chirps like a bird when she gets excited and is very entertaining to watch play as she is full of personality and appears to love her new life.

Bertie and her foster sister Sugar Dumpling appear to be bonded at this point as they are never far apart. The adorable cream puff duo really seem to enjoy exploring every inch of their foster home and backyard side by side, like tiny partners in crime. If you would like more information, please contact Sugars foster parents at uyryorkielovetx@yahoo.com.

Adoption Pending

To date we've spent $1346.25 on Jennielynn's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $100 in donations.

Jojo

THANK YO TO JOE JOE'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Shawn Hudson, David and Diana Lavine

Joe Joe

Meet Joe Jo, a precious 2 year old,9 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in McKinney, TX. Only TX applicants will be considered.

Update 5/9/23: Hey there everyone, It has been a while since I've written anything about myself so here is what has been going on. I moved to McKinney, Texas and have new foster pawrents and their dogs as buddies. Foster Mom has been checking me out so she gets to know me better but I can tell you some things about me. I am about 2 years old, a yorkie blend and I have really long legs and my hair is kinda curly and rough. I was a breeder dump and UYR rescued me and my girlfriend the day we got dumped at a kill shelter or we would have been euthanized if they didn't come save us. I'm so happy they saved us because GiGi is pregnant and it would have been very sad because I want to see my offspring. Since my rescue on April 1, 2023 I have been microchipped, had all my immunizations, tested negative for heartworms, am on heartworm and flea/tick preventative and I tested negative for parasites. I also got neutered so no more making more puppies for me.

I weighed in at 10 pounds May 6th but probably could still gain another pound or two because FM says I still feel a little bony. I am not 100% house trained but am pretty close. Sometimes I go to the door but that is because GiGi is there. So I wear those fashion statement things called belly bands. Sometimes they are wet but lately more often dry than wet because I go outside pretty often. I recently got groomed and the groomer said I was a good boy. FM is going to give me a bath this week so we will see how I act about that.

I am a little lover boy and just love to shower you with kisses but I also love my girlfriend and I am usually by her side especially when we nap and go to sleep at night. I love toys and if you let me I will move a lot of them to one certain location. FM has not figured out that I want her to move the toy box to the spot where I want it because it will be in the way of everyone. She keeps moving them back to the toy box and I keep moving them to my spot. I call it the war of the toys game.

FM wants me to tell you that because I was a breeder boy and that I am in love with GiGi that we might need to be adopted together. This status might change but we are not sure yet. I will also need my future prospective adopter to please be someone who is home all the time, well except to do the errands like going to the pet store to get me some nutritious food, treats and toys! I promise to reward my future hoomans with my undying love fur furever. Did you know that we are amazing babies to own as I just want to show you how much I appreciate you giving me my furever home and your furever love. I already show FM how much I love her everyday as I become more comfortable in my new foster home.

I will soon tell her exactly what I want in my furever home and hoomans but I do know this,,,I need a back yard to run in and sun in and I like to explore because all of this new life I am learning is such a wonderful thing to experience and explore. I love nice comfy dog beds or people beds are nice and soft too.

Foster Mom is accepting applications at this time but it is unclear when I will begin my serious search for my future home as it is still undecided if I will need to be adopted with GiGi after she has her babies. You can reach FM with any questions at stickhors@gmail.com

Initial Bio 4/2/23: Joe Joe came into rescue as a breeder dump at the shelter! We were contacted about Joe Joe and his "wife" Gigi as the shelter was a kill shelter and there was zero room and they were to be euthanized that day. Immediately one of our amazing fosters rushed to bring these babies home to safety...sooo here he is!

Joe Joe is an adorable 2yr old who weighs maybe 8-9lbs. He is in immediate need of a neuter of course, along with rabies, 4DX for heartworm and tick borne diseases, bordetella, fecal and blood work. He along with Gigi will see the vet on Tuesday. His neuter is set for Wednesday.

Joe Joe was very scared at first but is coming around slowly, He does love to give kisses and when you hold him he hugs your neck which is the sweetest! Joe Joe also is quite in "love" at the moment with his Gigi, but his romancing days are soon to be over on Wednesday. Thank goodness for diapers and belly bands!

Being that Joe Joe was a breeder, again we ask that this baby's prospective adopter please be at home most of the time. He deserves that one on one so he can become the best of himself. These babies make the most amazing babies to own as they just love "love" that they have missed. He already loves human touch and being held in your arms.

If you feel you have the home and the love to give this little guy, please fill out the application below. Foster mom can also be reached at the email address below. I look forward to hearing from you!

To date we've spent $537.46 on Joe Joe's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $95 in donations.

Joli

THANK YOU TO JOLI'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Carol Nelson, David and Diana Lavine, Sandy Pagnotta

Joli

Meet Joli, a very sweet 1-2 year old, 11 pound Yorkie girl being fostered in Saginaw, TX. Only TX applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO JOLI'S FACEBOOK DONORS!
Cheryl Mortensen Disher, Natalie Neuhardt, Ann Brown Underwood, Yoly Velez-Tarr, Pam Bergrin, Cindy Mitchell-Clark

Update 5/3023: Joli is equal parts sassy and cuddly. She is a two year old Yorkshire terrier that came to us very neglected, encased in a full body matte, and desperately needed love and medical attention as well as a good grooming. She has beautiful teeth and an energetic youthful spirit.

She has been in her foster home located in Saginaw, Tx for 2 months where her foster family has been dedicated to working endlessly on improving her ability to trust humans not to harm her and provide her with training and coping skills for her anxiety.

Joli would flourish best in a home without young children or large dogs.

She is ready for her forever home and simply cannot wait to cuddle with you and feel nothing but love and comfort for the rest of her days.

Initial Bio 4/2/23: Well... she's a hot mess! But her life is about to change! Meet sweet... and she is so sweet ...1 to 2yr old, 11lb UNITED YORKIE RESCUE Joli! Joli means beautiful in French and she will be just that! She was so matted but after the tech and I went through her mats, it looks like we may be able to cut through and drop off the majority of these dreadlocks. Around her legs are iffy. Someone had worked on her at some point and just worked on the top of the saddle. Her hair is really pretty there. Her back end has about 3 inches at least of thick matting. Under her arms are burs and sticks too. Sadly, during Joli's medical grooming of her horrific matting, she had lost the top portion of her ear. The vet cleaned it up and let me know that her hair will grow back nicely and will cover the missing piece. Joli is the second breeder baby I have seen with a loss like this. On a positive note, this sweet angel was heartworm negative!

Joli will be at the vet through the weekend. She has received a sedated groom, rabies, bloodwork, 4DX to check for tick borne diseases, fecal, nails trimmed and a spay. She is doing well but recouping. Please keep checking back as I'll update with full medical and photos as we get her a spa day grooming now. I should also know more about her little personality fairly soon.

I do think Joli would thrive with someone who is home most of the time. I am not certain how she is with children... that will be tested, but I feel older children might be suitable. I believe she is fine with other dogs as well. If you feel you have the perfect home for Joli, please complete the application below. Donations are always appreciated for these precious ones! Thank you for loving these babies!

To date we've spent $906.03 on Joli's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $425 in donations.

For more information, contact my foster parents at: thatdorkieyorkielady@gmail.com.

Pablo

Meet little Pablo, a sweet 9 month old puppy who is being fostered in Fort Worth, TX. Despite multiple tests and over $15,000 in vetting, he's still not out of the woods. He suffers from a tick-borne disease that has impacted his health. Please consider donating toward his expenses.

THANK YOU TO PABLO'S FACEBOOK DONORS!
Katie Giltinan, Mia Buy, Patricia Miller, Leslie Corbell, Christine Flaherty, Natasha Cruz, Kim Maise, Ula Fronczyk, Marsha Butler, Ann Underwood, Alexis Dean Rosales, Taren Hill, Larry Schwartz, Sarah Willey, Beth Tessman, Diane Zammit, Theresa McDivitt, Jill Landers, Liesl Okada, Kari Juul, Julie Mcfarlane, Crystal Dicosola, Lyn Greenspan, Linda Rothrock, Cindy Getchius

Update 5/27/23: Pablo has been reviewed by the vet and we are still on observation for neurological disorders. This little one has beat death but the after effects have been arising. The vet says he acts as if he has had a mild case of hydrocephalus. Pablo is very hyper sensitive to touch. He has an unusual gait as well. He does have tics as he will turn his head to the side as if he is trying to bite at something that is not there. He also can be doing something such as eating and in a blink, start growling then run towards any dog whether they are close by or far away. He truy does not mean to do that because I can pick him up and in mid air he will come out of this anger. I immediately take him to his toys and he's just as happy as can be. Even while sleeping he will suddenly growl and attack while he sleeps under the covers. I quietly tell him it's ok, and put my hand on his back and he falls sound asleep again. Luckily all his fur siblings know him and leave him to himself. It's as if they are in tune to his sudden outbursts. We are trying NOT to have to use medication at this moment as he just turned a year old in February. As Pablo has been a miracle baby and fought hard to live for months since a few weeks old, I pray these episodes will pass or resolve in time. I pray we don't see this as just the beginning of behavior changes and he overcomes what life dealt him in his early growth. Pablo is just adorable and he can also be so loving and playful as he's going through his puppy year . UYR has spent a little over $19K for his care. Please keep this angel in your prayers and please please donate, as we have so many in need in our rescue. We love you all and thank you for loving this little baby!!

Update 5/1/23: Time to give an update on this sweet baby! Sweet Pablo is still thriving in our care. Pablo (whom we call Axel) came into our rescue as a baby in critical care. Going back in his history from a puppy, we could only surmise that he had come into the owners home with a tick borne illness, which we came to know as Babesiosis. He suffered high fevers, not able to stand or eat or thrive. He has received over 18K in medical care over the course of his short little life. This has left Pablo with some neuro deficits. He does have times of head and body shakes, he is very hypersensitive to touch and has moments of slight seizures. We are not yet at the point of using seizure meds as we are monitoring those issues for the time being. He is young so we maintain hope that maybe over time this will resolve or we may see increases...so we are on "Pablo time" for now.

Pablo is closely monitored by the foster mom and we most definitely stay in touch with the vet on his needs. He will NEVER EVER be able to have the Leptospirosis vaccine so keeping him in areas where wildlife is limited is also a plus in my home.

Other than medical Pablo is a happy little "terrorist" as we lovingly call him. He is a total lap of love but if you knock on the door or come into you will hear him growling all the way to greet you . He is absolutely a total lover of stuffed toys and loves to play all day.

We always ask that you keep in mind the amount of medical care we offer to give these babies for their care. You are such a big part of the reason why we are able to help these medically challenged babies, such as this little "miracle baby" as the doctors call him. We are not certain if we will be able to adopt Pablo at this time, but please, keep our babies in your hearts and prayers and if you are able, and donate or share their stories so others can see what we are able to do because of you!

Update 3/26/23: I thought I might update everyone regarding precious little 6lb United Yorkie Rescue Pablo. We saw the vet this week and completed his last immunizations with rabies being the last. Pablo did fairly well these past few days. He's been a little under the weather... but all in all is doing ok.

The vet had noticed that Pablo has a quirky little walk and he knows he is very hypersensitive to touch and very jerky in his response. He did see a neuro deficit. He mentioned that possibly he may have had hydrocephalus or even meningitis during his deadly illness when he came into rescue. Pablo does continue to have head shakes or mild focal seizures. We may visit putting him on Keppra for those. He of course continues to play as a little yr old puppy would normally and is just a love bug as well. We are not going to subject him to any more testing. We think at this moment this is the result of whatever tried to take Pablo's life when he came into rescue months ago so so ill. You can follow Pablo's little story and our other babies at www.uyr.us in the Looking for Love section.

Update 2/14/23: Precious Pablo had a great visit with the Internal Medicine Dept. We finally have normal blood work values since November of last year and we also had an ultrasound which shows this baby's insides are no longer diseased and irritated! He does have some "deformities" to his kidneys in the structure, but we do not know if this was due to his horrific infection or a possible birth deficit, as this was noticed upon his first illness when he was with his owner. We just started his immunizations this week, but he will NEVER receive a leptospirosis vaccine due to having such a horrible tick borne bacterial infection he fought off all of these months. In another 2 weeks, he will go back for his rabies and a second set of DHPP...which I utterly dread.. He did react slightly with some head jerking and hypersensitivity to touch after these 1st vaccines, but this foster mom watched him like a hawk.

Pablo's story is long. As a sweet little cuddly puppy, he has fought for months to come to this day! The rescue has spent over 17K to help him see this day. I am so blessed to be a part of such an amazing rescue where we "truly rescue" those babies in such need with big hearts. The most important part of our rescue is our amazing base of followers and donors that help us to make sure each of these babies get their happily ever after. Pablo was a dying 6mth old puppy when his journey first began, and here we are approaching his 1yr Birthday on the 31st and how blessed is he!! Thank you everyone for making his life a purpose. Please donate to www.uyr.us so that we can continue this journey as we have so many littles in need Bless you and thank you! Happy Valentines Pablo and you amazing donors, family, and friends.

Update 1/22/23: Wanted to give you all an update regarding our little 5lb Pablo. We have been on a roller coaster, that's for sure and its taken this long to get some results. Thus sweet baby finally has a downward spiral of his high WBC and RBC's. Although his WBC is still slightly elevated, we are at 18,000!!! That's a far cry from 85,000 when normal range is up to 12,000 for some labs. His RBC is also normalizing along with every value on this baby's panel. Question is ... what was it? We are assuming he was infested with a very bad parasitic bacteria. He had been in California originally and under ER care where he received numerous antibiotics, tests of every kind, transfusions etc., then was sent here for the specialist and the treatment for one of the parasites "babesia". He has since been on a very specific medications that is used to treat MRSP. Pablo had developed a rare skin infection that was antibiotic resistant (MRSP). We immediately cultured that and sent it to labs so they could tell us which antibiotic could work against that infection. He is on his 3rd week of that antibiotic and his skin looks so much better. One thing that was discovered during all of this unknown illness was his insides were very irritated. He did start with a bout of pancreatitis which we resolved at first but his gut looked very angry. We will now address that to see if this has resolved since he has finally made a turn in the right direction. We will see Internal Medicine Specialist the beginning of next month for ultrasounds etc. For those of you that have followed this 10mth old 4lb adorable puppy, we have spent close to $17,000 for his care. We appreciate all of you who have helped us with his care, but I will ask again, that if you can, please donate towards Pablo or any of our sweet babies. We recently brought in about 20 breeder release babies from the Texas and Oklahoma area so any donation is so much appreciated as we need to vet these babies as well.

Pablo is just a very playful adorable puppy. He loves his squeaky stuffed toys and of course his clothes! He is also very very smart!! When I take one off his PJ's I need to have another one ready and he knows when I do the laundry which ones are his LOL. He may be just a little spoiled but he has earned every hug and kiss he gets.

Please donate at www.uyr.us if possible. If a donation is not possible, please share his story as you never know who maybe able to help. Bless you all for loving our babies and thank you for all you do!

Update 11/24/22: Pablo continues his fight. When I arrived today I took this little baby in my arms. I could tell he was a little shaky. Being in the ER takes such a toll on these babies. I took him into the waiting room where it was quiet and just snuggled him tight. He gave me the sweetest kisses and finally just snuggled in and was able to go into such a good deep sleep. I just held him and let him snore while I gently rubbed his little face. This is what Thanksgiving was all about...holding a helpless baby who needed just a human touch and to reassure him he is loved.

Tomorrow we will make our final move to another ER where he can be seen by specialists in internal medicine. And today, we had a day with "better" blood values which is a plus! We're far from being out of the woods of course, but I will just trust and know that God sent him here because we will find the answer here.

Please keep this sweet puppy in your prayers and please help us through a donation using the link below. His life is just beginning. Thank you and bless you all!

Update 11/23/22: Precious 3lb and 9mth old Pablo aka Axel, has come into my care as we still search for answers. Pablo has been in the care of hospitals since November 2! He has a rarity to his blood that came upon him suddenly. What once was a happy feisty little puppy full of zoomies and play, turned overnight into a very lethargic puppy. Pablo will melt your soul when he looks at you and reaches up to give you such sweet sweet kisses. Pablo aka Axel has been through an unbelievable amount of tests searching for why this pup's bloodwork is absolutely crazy. He was released at one time and back in with high anemia in 2 days. His white blood count has been a high as 85,000 and his RBC ridiculously low. Finding the root of the infection is absolutely baffling.

We hope to get answers so this little nugget can finally come home and play with toys and fur siblings and be the puppy he deserves to be. We are so thankful for his life and with his fighting ability he has maintained to have this life he deserves. I ask you to please help us help him. During this time of thankfulness, we would love and appreciate anything you may be able to do to help him whether it be prayers, donations placed at www.uyr.us, or by sharing this baby's story. We are so blessed to have all of you as our amazing family and friends who love our babies!. Happy Thanksgiving and may God bless you all!

Update 11/19/22: The last time I saw Pablo, I was handing him off, with tears in my eyes, to medical emergency experts, in critical condition, limp and barely alive. This past week he has been surrounded by medical experts and a powerful circle of UYR supporters that have kept him in their hearts receiving as an arsenal of antibiotics to give his body the powerful weapons it needed to overcome the deadly infection that was taking over his vital organs one by one. For five days, Baby Pablo fought back like a Tiny Prize Fighter, refusing to let go of his life. And finallythe infection showed signs of weakness and the possibility of defeat.

Sitting in the waiting room of the emergency hospital, we waited with anticipation just to see him alive and showing signs of recovery. And finally, there he was very weak and frail, but eager to give us the puppy kisses wed been longing for, his tiny eyes sparkling with the signs of victory in the first round of the intense battle which will now continue at home with oral antibiotics, medical follow-up visits, high-quality nutrition, supplements, exercise, and rest critical to his continued recovery. This critically ill baby was surrendered by a loving family, their only wish is that he would survive. Placed in a crate, surrounded by loud sounds and strangers while test after test was administered, I am certain he must have been terrified. He will now be surrounded by the love in our hearts, the warmth of our home, and our steadfast commitment to placing Pablo gently onto the road to recovery and the promise of the Beautiful Yorkie Life he continues to dream of.

Pablos journey to health will be a long one. With no definitive diagnosis, time will tell if the severe pancreatitis and infection currently being treated is the original culprit, or if there is an underlying, undetected issue yet to be discovered. Careful monitoring of his bloodwork, medical status and recovery progress will continue for quite some time as he regains the strength in his muscles, returns to a normal weight and recovers emotionally. We just cant wait for him to return to playful puppyhood. The signs are definitely ther

Having an impact this significant is incredibly expensive and relies solely on YOUR GENEROUS DONATIONS. Wont you please reach deep into your pocket today, even though times are particularly challenging, and support UYRs efforts to Save Lives & Dog Dreams, just Like Pablos? Totaling an estimated $10K, Pablos treatment has taken a significant financial tollwe are a long way from his fund-raising target. Please donate using the link following this bio to help with his expenses.

Bio Update 11/15/22: Pablo was born on 1/31/2022, a beautiful, energetic, spunky, and playful baby just like any other Yorkie pup. His owner recently became increasingly concerned about Pablo's lack of appetite and attempted to entice him to eat, but he continued to refuse food. Over the course of a few weeks, Pablo became increasingly week and lethargic ultimately the family became concerned for his life. Pablo came to United Yorkie Rescue on Thursday and rushed immediately to an emergency specialty vet hospital fighting for his life with symptoms so severe he wouldn't have made it until Friday morning without life-saving intervention. This tiny little fighters bloodwork had critically elevated values in virtually every category, including white blood cell counts 5 times the normal levels indicating a massive and deadly infection was spreading through his frail little body. Pablo was immediately placed on IV glucose, broad spectrum antibiotics, and fluids in a frantic attempt to save his life. Tests were performed to rule out virtually every common scenario that could cause an infection of this magnitude and to pinpoint where the infection might be originating from without success. In the morning Pablo was rushed to another emergency facility where an emergency ultrasound could be performed. Results of the ultrasound revealed very severe pancreatitis, inflammation in his bowels, liver, stomach, and abnormalities in his kidneys, but no definitive answers regarding what was causing the infection were detected. The only option was to begin treating for multiple potential sources of the bacteria strains with antibiotics which resulted in a significant drop in white blood cells on Saturday indicating that something was beginning to work. Several of the vets at the clinic have reached out to several infectious disease specialists to share Pablos test results to see if they might be able to provide some insight.

Tonight, Pablo remains at the Emergency Specialty Hospital. There is still no indication of what or where this massive infection originated. With so many possibilities, his medical team has decided to stay the course with the current antibiotics which seem to be resulting in slight improvements over time. This morning we learned that Pablo was up and walking around for the first time since he arrived at the emergency hospital providing some encouragement from Pablo himself. This tiny little guy remains extremely ill as we continue to work with his medical team to find the answers and continue to support and treat his infection. Without UYR this adorable tiny puppy would never have survived, but now we feel hopeful that he will recover and have a chance at the healthy lifelong journey he deserves.

Initial Bio 11/10/22: Poor Pablo came into rescue just barely in time. When his owner handed him over, he was very ill despite all her efforts. We rushed him immediately to a 24 hour emergency hospital where he was given fluids and had bloodwork done. His CBC showed a seriously high white count indicating a major infection and he was started on IV antibiotics. This poor boy was so weak he couldn't stand. He was stable enough the next day for us to transfer him to a specialty hospital where they planned to do an ultrasound (check for liver shunt) and see an infectious disease specialist. Stay tuned as we try to get to the bottom of his health crisis.

To date we've spent $19702.06 on Pablo's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $7210 in donations.

Meet Rosie, a sweet 7 pound Yorkie mix senior girl being fostered in Leander, TX. Only Texas residents will be considered.

THANK YOU TO ROSIE'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Sandy Pagnotta

Initial Bio 5/23/23: Hello UYR Friends and Family. We would like to introduce Rosie. Rosie is believed to be a yorkie mix estimated to be between 8 and 11 years old and weighs 7 lbs. Rosie was surrendered to a local shelter after being found living and fending for herself in a vacant field. It is not known how long she was on her own, however based on her condition it looks like it may have been for a while. Sweet Rosie was full of fleas, ticks, and severely matted fur when she arrived. Rosie also had a large growth in her mouth, a mammary tumor, a growth under one of her eyes, a terrible skin infection, and appears to have been used by a breeder for a long period of time. Thankfully United Yorkie Rescue and its team members were able to get her out of that shelter and directly into see one of our amazing vets. Rosie was relieved of her matted fur that was full of feces and debris, she was prescribed medication for her fungal skin infection, cough, and pain. After a week of much needed R & R at her foster home Rosie underwent surgery to remove her mouth and mammary tumors, spay, dental, and to remove the growth under her left eye. She is currently recovering while thoroughly enjoying the good life with her foster family. Her fosters say that Rosie really seems to think that sleeping under a blanket in a a cozy soft bed or couch and having regular yummy meals is alright! Her fosters have given her the nick name Cozy Rosie because she just loves to be snuggled up in a cozy blanket for most of the day. Rosie appears to be seeing and hearing impaired but that does not stop her from exploring her new home environment and roaming the backyard. Her fosters say that she seems to get along pretty well with only an occasional bump into a wall, furniture, or foster sibling. She is very easy going, sweet as can be, funny, and is housetrained. Shes basically the perfect house guest. Updates to follow as we are sill waiting for the test result of Rosies tumor biopsies. If you have room in your heart and home for this one of a kind senior or have questions about Rosie please contact uyryorkielove@yahoo.com.

Sebastian

Meet Sebastian, a very sweet 8 year old, 7 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in Saginaw, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

Bio Update 4/25/23: Look what was hiding under all that hot mess!! Everyone meet precious Sebastin. This little boy is just the sweetest most loving little one who came from absolute horror. Legs matted together, he needed to be anesthesetized in order to cut away the poundage of fur. His mouth was painful to look at. Sebastin is an adorable 8yr 7lb baby boy who is ready for his furever. Sebastian is an easy going, funny character with lots of charm. You simply cannot resist those huge ears and how adorable it is when his tongue is poking out.

At meal times, he will do a little dance and twirl for you.

He loves the lady of the house but is much more of a guy's guy. He gets excited for belly rubs and will paw at his foster dad for attention. Please email foster mom of you feel you have the perfect home for him.

Initial Bio 4/15/23: United Yorkie Rescue was a little busy this past week with our newest additions in Texas. Today was another O.M.G! Meet precious 7lb, 8yr old Sebastian! How anyone can do this is beyond my comprehension! Owner surrendered to the shelter saying "their dog was lost for over a year and just came back!" "Can't afford the care" Ohhh... and this baby's back legs were matted together as one... he couldn't walk! Look at his skin on his belly at how it's pulled from all the matting on his coat and his horrible mouth!! We had to take him to the ER to have his 3" nails clipped... who does this! Honestly, I love it when their stupidity gets checked, because this little baby Sebastian will NEVER ever have a memory of his horrific past once we are through! His life is about to be amazing!! Follow our babies stories at www.uyr.us and if possible, please consider a donation, or even a share is most appreciated! Bless you all for loving our babies!

Sherman

THANK YOU TO SHERMAN'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sherman

Meet Sherman, a handsome 6 year old, 6 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in Austin, TX. Only Texas residents will be considered.

4/20/23 Update: Sherman visited a veterinary neurologist this week after traveling to Irving for an MRI and a spinal tap last month to help determine the cause of the focal seizures he has been having since he was rescued by UYR.

After an examination and review of all of Shermans imaging and blood tests, the neurologist said that Shermans brain and blood work appear normal and she does not think the severed muscle and trauma to his right eye have anything to do with the seizures. She said it is possible Sherman could have been having these seizures his whole life, but there is no way to know since we dont know his history before January 5th (other than his birth date offered by the Breeder who surrendered him with a lot of other yorkies). The very good news is that there is no evidence of a brain tumor, cancer, or more serious medical condition right now. And since he has healed from his neuter and dental surgeries and ear and urinary tract infections, Sherman finally seems to be feeling so much better.

The neurologist increased the dosage of the seizure medication that he takes 3 times per day, hoping that it will make his seizures even milder and less frequent or stop the seizures all together.

We have been keeping a seizure journal to document the frequency and monitor activity. Shermans seizures have occurred about once every 2-4 weeks. After the seizures Sherman is extra tired and needs to rest in a quiet place.

But most of the time, he is a well adjusted, intelligent and gentle yorkie who loves walks, playing with his foster Yorkie brother, basking in the sun.

He loves to be close to humans and sometimes likes to help make the bed by rolling in the covers in the morning. He likes fetching toys, but he has recently developed a bit of a shoe fetish, often preferring to fetch shoes instead of the toys he used to like!

So far, UYR has spent over $5000 on his medical care in the 3 1/2 months he has been with us. He still needs to have a procedure for his eye (where he is missing part of his eyelid) to keep the hair from growing directly into and irritating his eye. The cost for this procedure is estimated at $1200. Please consider making a donation to UYR to help with Shermans medical expenses.

1/29/23 Update: Last week after we returned from Sherman's vet visit, he had a bundled gift from the wonderful volunteers at Wrapped in Love waiting for him on our door step a beautiful blanket and toy bear both embroidered with Sherman. Somehow he knew the gift had his name on it! He immediately came over and pulled the toy bear out of the string and began to play with it! Then he started pulling the strings attempting to untie the blanket. What joy for him and for his foster mom to watch!

Sherman has been to the vet 4 times and to an eye specialist in the short 3 and a half weeks he's been with us, and in that time, has recovered from an ear infection, a urinary tract infection, neuter surgery, and dental surgery. The eye specialist diagnosed that one of the muscles on his right eye is severed and a tiny part of his eyelid is missing ( likely from a trauma in his life before he was rescued by UYR). The good news is his vision is fine in both eyes except that because of the severed muscle, his right eye is rotated sideways and causes a blind spot. Also the hairs from the skin where part of the eyelid is missing grows directly in the eye and it is difficult to keep trimmed short enough because it is so close to the eye. The Eye specialist recommended a procedure to stop the hair growth on this tiny part of skin where there is no eyelid to keep hair from growing directly into and irritating the eye. The estimated cost for this procedure is $1200-$1500. UYR has already spent nearly $2000 on Sherman's care, so please consider donating with the link below to help with Sherman's care.

Sherman will hopefully be ready for his forever home soon, but not just yet. He had a couple of seizures in the first few days with us. The cause of seizures is unknown at this time, but initially was thought to be hypoglycemia. He is currently taking an anti-seizure medication and eating a special diet while we monitor. His recent vet visit and bloodwork were very encouraging and now that he has recovered from surgeries and infections, he is feeling so much better! He has become very playful and even more loving!

1/11/23 Initial Bio: Sherman came to UYR as a breeder surrender. He is a Parti Yorkie (rare black, white and tan coloring) and just turned 7 years-old on January 7. He is adjusting very well to his new foster home and will make a wonderful companion for a single or multi-dog home after he heals. He should be ready for his forever home at the end of January.

In spite of arriving with an an ear infection, bad teeth, and possibly a little vision impairment, he seems otherwise healthy and is a joy! He is a gentle and pretty easy going guy, very smart, and gets along great with his foster brother and sister Yorkies. He has an appointment with an eye specialist next week to determine what is going on with his right eye-if he will need treatment or if it is congenital, etc.

Sherman enjoys exploring the back yard and basking in the sun as long as his foster humans and other pups are nearby. He perks up when he hears his name, comes when called and rolls over for belly rubs! He walks on a leash pretty well, likes snuggling on the dog beds or sofa next to the humans and/or other pups.

He has only been with us for a few days and naturally wants to mark his new surroundings, so he has been wearing a belly band in the house for now. But we are working on training him to go outside and the other pups are helping. He just had his neuter surgery today, which will hopefully help speed up the training. He also had dental surgery and lost 16 teeth, but he is doing great and will feel so much better once he is fully recovered!

To date we've spent $5224.45 on Sherman's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $960 in donations.

Sugar Dumplin

Sugar Dumplin

Meet Sugar Dumplin, a sweet 5 year old, 4-5 pound Morkie girl being fostered in Leander, TX. Only Texas residents will be considered.

THANK YOU TO SUGAR DUMPLIN'S RESCUE ANGELS!
David and Diana Lavine

5/5/23:We are happy to report that Sugar Dumpling has recovered from her spay and dental surgery and only had to have a few teeth extracted. Her foster family says that she is a one of the sweetest dogs they have ever met. Sugar is learning to trust people more and more each but still has a long way to go as she is still a little fearful. She is not very fond of wearing a harness and wants nothing to do with a leash at this point. Her foster parents have been working on this and say she is making some progress. They report that Sugar is doing great with housetraining and will use puppy pads if no one is around to let her outside to potty. Sugar is a huge fan of belly rubs, giving kisses, and lounging on the couch or being curled up in a plush doggie bed. Her foster mom says Sugar is the cutest couch potato ever and she gives the sweetest kisses. Sugars ideal forever family would be one with lots of patience, love, and extra time to spend cuddling with her.

3/23/23 Initial Bio: Sugar Dumpling is a five-year-old, four-pound Morkie that was surrendered to UYR by a breeder after a tornado destroyed the breeder's kennels. Thankfully she was not physically injured during the terrifying event. When Sugar was taken in by UYR she was severely matted and full of fleas and ticks. Luckily UYR was able to get her in to see one of our wonderful vets the following day to begin vaccinations, heartworm test, bloodwork, etc. Thankfully she is HW negative and her bloodwork looks great. The doctor says that she has the all-too-common luxating patella in some of her knees however is in overall great health and is scheduled to be spayed and have a dental cleaning next week.

Sugar is slowly adjusting to living indoors and being part of her foster family. Sugars foster parents say that she is very timid and cowers in fear when approached. However, when picked up she melts in their arms and gives the sweetest kisses. Foster Mom and Dad are still trying to get to know her and say she is coming out of her shell a little more each day as she is beginning to learn that she is safe and that humans can be kind and loving. Sugar enjoys cuddling next to her foster parents and foster sister on the couch especially when receiving belly rubs. She also loves to burrow under the covers in her cozy doggie bed. Sugar and her foster sister Jennielynn, aka Bertie, seem to be bonded at this point as they are never far apart. The adorable cream puff duo really seem to enjoy exploring every inch of their foster home and backyard side by side, like tiny partners in crime. If you would like more information, please contact Sugars foster parents at uyryorkielovetx@yahoo.com.

Tara May

THANK YOU TO TARA MAY'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Sandy Pagnotta, Brian Cook, Barbara Burgess

Tara May

Meet Tara May, a precious 5 year old, 9 pound Yorkie girl being fostered in Austin, TX. Only Texas residents will be considered.

5/28/23 Update: Tara May (aka Tiramisu) has fully recovered from her spay surgery and dental and is sweeter and spunkier than ever! She is so much more confident and loves playing with toys (she especially likes to steal her foster brother's favorite toys) and will jump on the couch to snuggle with her foster mom.

When she first arrived at UYR she was absolutely terrified of people and would run away when we tried to pick her up. She will still sometimes run away but as often as not will sit and let us pick her up. The first few months in foster care she was too scared to sleep on the bed with her foster family, but now she is the first one on the bed at bedtime. This sweetheart is still anxious when left alone, so she will need a furever family with plenty of patience and love to help her with her separation anxiety. She loves other dogs, so she is looking for a furever home with a fur sibling or two that she can play with.

4/18/23 Update: Tara May (aka Tiramisu) is finally heartworm negative!!!! She really enjoyed getting to exercise and go on long walks without having to ride in the stroller over the last week. But today she had her spay surgery so she is back in the stroller for the next few weeks while she recovers. The surgery went well but she has to take it easy until her body heals. She also had her dental (probably her first one ever) and the vet pulled 7 teeth. But this sweetheart is almost ready for her furever home! While in foster she has learned to enjoy being petted and snuggle on the couch. She also loves chewing on things, so her furever parents will need to make sure she has plenty of bully sticks and chew toys.

3/23/23 Update: Little Tara May had her second and third heartworm treatments at the beginning of the month. She had to spend two nights at the vet for monitoring while she had the back-to-back treatments, but is recovering well. Her stay at the vet with so many other dogs around triggered her heat, but her poor little body is so used to being pregnant that she went into what the vet calls a "false pregnancy"--her body tried to produce milk and prepare for puppies even though she is not actually pregnant (we have triple checked!). Luckily she doesn't have too many symptoms so it isn't impacting her recovery from the heartworm treatment.

Tara May is still on exercise restriction for the rest of the month, then hopefully she will test negative for HW and be healthy enough for her her spay and dental. She is a sweet and spunky little girl, and can't wait to start going on long walks with her foster brother and playing with all the neighbor dogs. In the meantime she enjoys riding in her stroller to accompany foster mom and brother on our walks.

2/12/23 Update: Tara May has become much more confident since she first arrived in rescue. She has learned to love snuggling and getting ear scratches. She is no longer quite so scared of getting picked up, and will now take treats from her foster mom's hand. She's a completely different dog from the terrified little girl who arrived just last month!

Tara May loves playing with other dogs her size, and will probably do best in a home with another smallish dog(s). She also loves to chew on things--so foster mom has been keeping her occupied with bully sticks and chew bones.

Unfortunately she is not allowed to play very much right now, because she had her first of three intensive heartworm treatments last week. She had to stay overnight at the vet for observation while they administered medicine to kill and dissolve the heartworms, and now she has to take it easy and not get excited for the next two months. This also means no long walks until she's done with treatment. She will have her second and third treatments at the beginning of March, when she will have to stay overnight at the vet for two nights. So far she is handling the treatment very well, and everyone at the vet's office was impressed by how good she was.

Tara May will not be ready for adoption until mid-April when she is recovered from her heartworm treatment.

1/10/23 Initial Bio: Tara May is one of the 9 breeder surrenders that just arrived at United Yorkie Rescue. This poor sweet girl had a hard life as a breeder pup, where she lived outdoors and never got any love from people.

She is slowly settling into her foster home, and each day trusts her foster mom a tiny bit more. She is heartworm positive and begins treatment today but it will be several months before she will be healthy enough for adoption.

If you would like to help with the cost of her vet care we would really appreciate it. You can donate at the PayPal link below. Thank you for your support getting this sweet girl healthy and ready to find her furever home!

To date we've spent $2545.89 on Tara May's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $325 in donations.

Tate

Meet Tate, a sweet 8 year old, 10 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in Grapevine, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

Initial Bio 5/12/23: Meet Tate! We aren't sure what happened to Tate in these past 8 years of his life, but we do know that it wasn't pleasant. This sweet boy was picked up as a stray by a concerned citizen and taken to their local shelter. He has obviously experienced some neglect and hardship before, and we are gonna make sure he doesn't ever go through that again. He has rashes from flea infestation that foster mommy is treating with some soothing coconut oil, a severe case of dry eyes and the beginning of cataracts that luckily foster mommy and the vet are to the rescue again with some soothing drops and gel to clear up those beautiful brown eyes. And sadly, the neglect he has been through extends to his dental care. He only has two little toothies left, and because they are the upper canines and they are very loose, he will go under to have them removed because they may have started an open fistula in the bone that the vet will need to close. After all the scary doctor visits (he really was a trooper through it all!), foster mommy took him out for a spa day, and got him a pedicure and a snazzy new haircut! He is just too cute and looks so adorably dapper these days!

Foster mommy is sad about all the hardship he has endured, but lil Tate has let go of that horrible past. He is a happy loving little guy despite all the hardship he has experienced! He is even figuring out how the whole "playing with toys" thing works and won't be long before he locates the mysterious squeaker. Tate has formed a few hobbies: riding in the car with Foster mommy and giving the side eye until he gets his pup cups from the drive through, riding in the stroller to the park, followed by a wiggle around the park to sniff the leaves and watch the squirrels, and a leisurely stroller ride back to the house to enjoy his other favorite activity: cuddle time! He is a cute and cuddly little guy who loves to just be with his human! Tate has had a rough road through life so far, and we are looking for that special someone to love and spoil this little guy to make up for those hard years he has endured. If you have room for this special baby in your heart, please fill out an application today!

To date we've spent $193.11 on Tate's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $200 in donations.

Carol Thompson

Initial Bio 5/26/23 Hi, my name is Bentley, and I'm looking for my forever family. The family I came from could no longer care for me and my brother Elliot who's also looking for his forever home. My foster mom thinks I'm very sweet, I love to eat and often steal food from my other Yorkie brothers and sisters. I am perfectly content chilling on the couch laying next to you. I wear belly bands and go on pee pads, and I've never been in a crate. I get along with other dogs, children, and cats. My brother Elliot and I are bonded siblings and would be great in a family that is laid back.

Hi, my name is Buddy, and I'm looking for my forever family. The family I came from could no longer care for me and my brother Teddy who's also looking for his forever home. My foster mom thinks I'm adorable, I don't bark unless there's a knock at the door, I am not food aggressive, love to play with other dogs (big or small), I chase balls and I love kids. I'm 70% potty trained, primarily on pee pads, and I love to sleep on the floor next to my humans. My favorite thing to do is sit on your lap. My first time on a leash was yesterday, and I need some patience while learning.

Meet sweet Beatrice, a 9 pound 11 year old Yorkie Mix girl being fostered near Madison, WI. Only Wisconsin residents within a 75 miles radius of Madison will be considered.

THANK YOU TO BEATRICE'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Samantha Berta

Initial Bio 5/29/23: Beatrice came to her foster home today as an owner surrender. She was adopted from a shelter eight years ago and due to issues beyond their control, her family had to give her up. It is believed that Bea was abused in her first home as she does react to being picked up a certain way and does not care for being groomed. Bea will be visiting the vet soon to get her initial intake wellness check and we will make sure there are no underlying health issues. Foster mom will also have her groomer evaluate Bea to see whats happening during grooming. Once these are complete, she will be available for adoption. Since her arrival today she has gotten along just fine with her new doggy siblings, both her size. We went for a walk together and she seems to enjoy being outside and finding all the new smells of the neighborhood. Foster mom will continue to monitor how she handles walking on a leash and interacting with the other dogs.

Any donations to help with vet costs would be greatly appreciated.

Please reach out to Beatrices foster mom with any questions. tjamund6949@gmail.com
