Update 9/2/24:
Hi guys! Koby here with some good news. I got my stitches out today! The dogtor says I am doing well and can begin taking a few five minute walks every day. I will be going back to the dogtor in 4 weeks to have an X-Ray to make sure everything is healing well. Although my legs are doing better and getting stronger, I still fall backward sometimes but my legs will get stronger as they heal. Its only been a couple weeks since my surgery. Im also going to start pool therapy with my foster mommy in about a week to help me strengthen my legs.Thats all for now!
Update after surgery! 8/16/24: Hi Kobe here. I had my fix me up surgery yesterday and I know you want to hear all about it! It took almost 3 hours. The surgeon told foster mom it went great! Suture removal in 14 days follow up x-rays in 6 weeks. I have to do PT so I guess Ill be swimming in the pool to get my legs working again. I have an enlarged prostate so the neutering should have helped with that too.
I wasnt very happy when I got to foster moms house. I liked being under the table. I could watch my foster brothers and sister and not be in anyones way. My pain meds are great.
If you have anymore Pennies please send them my way for my follow up XRay, PT, and dental. Lick and wags
Updated Bio 7/29/24: Well you never would guess, remember how I said I fell off a high porch and tore my knee ligaments? Well I really really did it. I tore both knees. Thats why I fall over when I try to pee and walk and thats why I waddle like a duck when I walk. The surgeon told foster mom he would operate on both legs and cut off my male bits while hes at it. Im sure you can imagine this wont be a cheap operation. The estimate is $4500. If you have any spare Pennies can you send some my way. Thank you so much!!!
Updated Bio 7/23/24: Hi everyone, Kobe here. I am kinda new to the group, so let me introduce myself. I am a handsome 12-pound, 7.5 year-old male Yorkie. I am a real sweet little man who gets along with other pups in my foster moms home. I am a quiet boy, but I love to snuggle and get belly rubs. Oh, and I am housetrained too!
Sadly, I recently took a fall off a very high porch at my owners house at the beginning of July. My previous owner did not take me to the vet until two weeks later and then refused to pay for the Rimadyl to help me feel better. She also refused to fix me. Today, UYRs vet saw me and sent me to an orthopedic vet. This looks very serious, probably because I didn't get any help for so long. I have a torn meniscus and a ruptured cruciate ligament. Now, when I try to walk, I fall over, and as you can imagine, its really painful. Despite all this, I still give kisses because I am such a sweet boy.
To make things worse, since I was neglected for so long, I now have very bad teeth and need dental work. And you know how it goes, they have to cut off my boy parts, so yep, I also have to be neutered. I just want to be able to walk pain-free again and hope to find someone who will give me lots and lots of love forever.
I have to have surgery and then crate rest. My foster mom says I am a real sweetheart. Can you help with my surgery? Any amount, big or small, will make a difference for me. Please consider donating to help cover my medical expenses. Thank you for your kindness and generosity!
Initial Bio 07/21/2024: Kobe is a 12 pound 7 1/2 year old male Yorkie just surrendered to UYR fostered in Palm coast. This little one is in pain. Yesterday he found out that he has a ruptured cranial cruciate ligament. The vet recommended an orthopedic consultation or an amputation. Kobe's mom couldn't afford any vet care for him at all. Foster mom raced to get him today to get him the help he needs. Please keep Kobe in your thoughts. Donations will be appreciated to help this little one.
To date we've spent $4721.39 on Kobe's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $4663.76 in donations.
For more information, contact my foster parents at: leerobin05@gmail.com.

Iowa
Cosmo
Meet Cosmo, 5 mos old, male Yorkie Mix puppy being fostered in IA. Adoption applications are not being accepted at this time.<
THANK YOU TO COSMO'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Wendy Fuhrmaneck, Angie Cagle, Sandy Pagnotta, DeAnn Deutsch
THANK YOU TO COSMO'S FACEBOOK DONORS!
Robin Nyberg, Karry Rogers, Jane Montford
Update 12/1/2024: Cosmo is 7 mos old today and weighs 9lbs. He continues to grow and thrive. Foster family is working with Cosmo to understand, it is not cute to lift his leg and do whizzies in the house, targeting such things as backpacks and other items which do not belong to him. He is exhibiting typical juvenile, older puppy behaviors. Foster mom has attempted to use belly bands, however Cosmo does not think belly bands are fashionable and is quite clever in using different tactics to remove them. Cosmo makes several tips outside to do potty training and his Foster family will continue to work with on his housetraining!
A DNA and health test was ordered for Cosmo to confirm his breed and health status given his terrier appearances and rapid growth. Suprisingly the results of the DNA test confirmed Cosmo is a 100% Yorkshire Terrier. Cosmo's health results revealed an increased risk of developing Progressive Retinal Atropy due to inheriting both copies of the variant. This is a retinal diseases which could lead to early stage of blindness. The results will be shared with the dogtor, and could require further consultation and a specialized opthalmologic exam to develop a long term monitoring plan for Cosmo.
He will remain in foster care until he is old enough to be neutered.
Update 11/1/2024: Cosmo is 6 mos old today and weighs approximate 8lbs. He continues to grow and thrive. Foster family also continue to monitor the eye for changes, and will follow up with the vet for re-check in the next month or so. He will remain in foster care until he is old enough to be neutered.
Update 10/1/2024: Cosmo is 5 mos old today and weighs approximately 7lbs. Foster mom and dogtor are suspecting he might not be 100% Yorkie, given his rapid weight gain and growth. Will continue to monitor his left eye for changes. Left appears to be slightly smaller than the left. Dogtor is estimating Cosmo could reach an adult weight 10-15 lbs.
He is an extremely active and happy puppy. His favorite activities include running in the backyard with his foster sister, zoomies, and being around humans. Cosmo continues to teeth like crazy, as most puppies do, and has to be monitored daily. He is given teething toys, and sterile bones but on occasion will slip away and chew on things he should not.
Occasionally, he gets a naughty streak and will pirate belongings which do not belong to him. His favorite place to treasure hunt is the the older children's rooms, prompting a game of chase by crabby children who are not amused with Cosmo's shenanigans.
We continue to monitor his left eye for changes. He will remain in foster care until he is old enough to be neutered.
9/10/2024: Cosmo weighed in today at 6.2 lbs. at 19 weeks. The dogtor performed a corneal stain and was very pleased with the results, which reflected the eye ulcer has healed. The corneal stain did show there is some scarring. This could dispear overtime, or remain. Cosmo received his Rabies vaccine today.
We will continue to monitor his eye to ensure he does not have a dry eye condition, could require regular application of eye drops for life.
He will remain in foster care until he is old enough to be neutered.
8/27/2024: Cosmo's 2 week re-check occurred today. He weighs 4.86lbs at 17 weeks. The dogtor performed another Corneal Stain today and was pleased with the results of healing progress. Another Grid Keratomy was performed to continue healing of the ulcer. The stain did reflect some scarring on the eye.
Puppy vaccine booster was administered today to help Cosmo catch up on vaccines.
Additionally, foster mom will continue to administer antibiotic and serum eye drops.
Next re-check will dogtor will occur in 2 weeks.
8/1/2024: Cosmo had another vet visit today. His current weight at 13 weeks is 3.5 lbs. The dogtor indicated Cosmo is thriving on his healthy diet, and has fully recovered from pnemonia! We are proceeding slowly with puppy vaccines.
Another corneal stain check was completed on Cosmos's left eye, which showed the ulcer is still prominent, and there's quite a bit of scarring. The dogtor performed a Grid Keratomy, with local sedation on Cosmo's eye. This is a technique performed to treat eye ulcers and stimulate healing. Treatment will continue with antibiotic and serum eye drops with a re-check in 2 weeks. Vaccines.
7/18/2024: Cosmo had a vet visit today to continue monitoring his pnemonia status and progression with treating the eye ulcer in his left eye. His weight has increased from 2.lbs to 2.8 lbs.
The dogtor performed a corneal stain test on the left eye, which determined the eye ulcer is still prominent. As a result, Cosmo's eye treatment will now consist of 2 eye drops 4x daily - continuing with an antibiotic eye drop, along with serum eye drops. Additionally, Cosmo continues to battle pneumonia which will require a second round of antibiotics to continue treatment. Vaccines are on hold until Cosmo is fully recovered.
Stay tuned on more updates as we continue to monitor and learn more about Cosmo's eye condition.
Initial Bio 7/13/24: Little Cosmo was released to United Yorkie Rescue due to serious health related issues. This sweet baby arrived today with a crusty, squinty eye. The doctor says Cosmo has an eye ulcer, and infection which could potentially be the result of a dry eye condition, or traumatic eye injury. Additionally, Cosmo was diagnosed with pneumonia, which adds to the complexity of his current condition.
Please keep Cosmo in your thoughts as he fights to get healthy. Cosmo will likely need substantial vetting, including veterinary care with a doggy ophthalmologist/eye dogtor.
Donations would be greatly appreciated to help Cosmo on his journey to health.
Stay tuned for updates from Cosmo's foster mom as we learn more from upcoming dogtor visits. Please contact Cosmo's foster mom for more information at iayorkiemum@gmail.com
To date we've spent $447.2 on Cosmo's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $951 in donations.

Ella

Minnesota
Ella
Meet Ella, an adorable, 15yr old 9lb.Yorkie Girl being fostered near St. Paul, MN.
THANK YOU TO ELLA'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Sandy Pagnotta, Dan Clauser
Update 11/9/24: Ella has been with UYR for 3 weeks and has made a great transition! She's spunky, loves snuggles, exploring the yard, gets around very well and runs with enthusiasm through the house to hang out and be with her person. She enthusiastically plays with soft toys and loves curling up in her teepee cave for a nap. She loves meal time and makes sure to keep you on track if you're not moving fast enough! She's vocal when she wants her meals or playtime. A sweet little lady, she'd love to have a doting home with companionship during the day, and spoiling along the way. Ella is responding well to ear infection treatment and use of eye drops for her dry eye condition. She will need someone committed to providing her with high quality limited ingredient food to keep her health in tip top shape. We're working on the weight loss and she's lost a few ounces, and hopefully will continue to progress to a weight that will improve her health and mobility even more! This little girl is just waiting to find her forever home soon!
Update 10/28/24: 10/25/24 Update: Ella saw the Vet and we've learned a little more about her health. We're waiting for the results of senior bloodwork panel to return and also her test for potential Cushing's Disease. Ella is being treated for an ear infection and dry eye condition (both eyes), and onset of trachea collapse. Ella has no teeth, cataracts in both eyes, hearing loss, swollen lymph glands in her neck and a lump on her abdomen that will be watched. Lastly she needs to lose 2.5 lbs to get back to a healthy weight, which should help her mobility and breathing issues with the trachea collapse. She has a follow-up in 3 weeks at the end of the antibiotic. Despite all this, she's a very happy girl!
Please check back for updates on her progress.
Donations for Ella's treatment are greatly appreciated, Ella has many Vet visits ahead of her.
Initial Bio 10/23/24: Ella, approx. 15 yrs old, is back with UYR due to no fault of her own; her family has had health challenges and felt it best to return Ella so she could get the care she deserves. Ella will be evaluated soon to identify her needs. She's a sweet gal who loves people and gets along with other small dogs and shows her enthusiasm with tail wags and kisses. She loves her people and wants to be with you happily trotting after and laying at your feet for a rest when you're still.
Ella has had chronic ear and skin infections, has a couple lumps and bumps that will be looked into, and has some weight to lose.
Donations towards Ella's vetting expenses would be greatly appreciated!
Please check back soon for updates.
To date we've spent $858.1 on Ella's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $125 in donations.
For more information, contact my foster parents at: MNYorkieMom@gmail.com.

Rhode Island
Oliver RI
Meet Oliver, a handsome 9 year old, 16 pound Yorkie Mix boy being fostered in Rhode Island. Only Rhode Island applicants will be considered.
THANK YOU TO OLIVER'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Update 11/5/24 - I’m checking in here from Rhode Island. We have had a warm and lovely fall. Still enjoying time outside while foster dad rakes up the leaves.
I want to say the Foot pads are working really well...they stabilize my feet while I’m standing and the Fluff Trough is great addition. Lately we have a new routine, after dinner; I sit with FM on her lap and get a massage with Lavender essential oil and I just melt and fall asleep. This time change has me up at 3:30 Am looking for breakfast, hopefully we can get back on track, and get a little more sleep.
Update 10/2/24: Oliver here, checking in from Rhode Island. The leaves are falling and its sweater weather.
FM has found an elevated feeding dish called Fluff Trough; Ive been having difficulty eating from the bowl on the floor...my legs splay when Im trying to eat. Well this new dish is working out great, no more problems standing to eat. Now we are going to try some gripper foot pads that attach to my paws, wish me luck.
Update 9/2/24: Checking in with everyone. My UTI has resolved and I'm feeling much better. Still having some mobility issues, I have good days and then some days are not so great. But that doesn't stop me from getting a treat with the rest of the pack. I enjoy spending time outside now that its getting cooler and Stroller rides are the best!
Update 8/1/24: 8/2/24- Hi everyone, Im enjoying the shade here since its been very hot; FM doesn't let us stay out very long with this heat.
I've been having some difficulty getting around and recently it seems like my back legs get a spasm, so off to the Vet tomorrow. Getting older is not easy.
Update 7/1/24: I'm still here in Rhode Island and enjoying cooler temperatures and watching FM in the Garden and Stroller rides in the evening. All of us Fur Kids have been taste-testing the Green Beans and they are fresh and crunchy.
I've had to go to the Vet Lady because of a UTI that was uncomfortable but Im on antibiotics and I'm feeling so much better. Keep watching for updates.
Update 5/6/24: I have wonderful news to report! The oral/nasal Fistula that needed to be repaired for a second time was canceled! The Vet lady was amazed and had all her colleagues poking around and it had totally healed over. I guess my healing mojo kicked in :-).
I'm still my mellow self; FM has not heard me bark yet but I do whine about an hour before its time to eat, my favorite part of the day and I just cant help myself. I enjoy the treat puzzles, belly rubs and wandering around the yard. I do well on a leash for short walks. Id be a great couch companion for some Netflix or hangout on the deck when we get some warm weather with a good book. If you are looking for a super companion, I'm your man/pup!
Update 3/24/24: Its Spring in Rhode Island, and although the weather is fickle, I enjoy being able to roam about the yard and enjoy walks in the neighborhood on really nice days.
I had a dental done and a fistula repair, unfortunately the repair did not heal properly and I have to have it repaired again in 2 weeks.
FM says Im very easy going, eating is my very favorite part of the day, and occasionally Ill steal my Foster sisters Antler for a little chew.
I get along with FMs pack; Im pretty quiet, no barking so I would do well in an apartment, however I'm NOT able to go up and down stairs. I'm looking for a soft bed and someone that needs a companion to come home to, oh and I'm a really good listener.
Initial Bio 1-2-24: Hi, I'm Oliver. My family had to make a difficult decision to surrender me to United Yorkie Rescue, so I traveled from Maryland to Rhode Island. I'm with my Foster family and their pack. The first few days have been confusing but I get to have homemade food, treats and plenty of pats. FM says I'm so mellow and I haven't even barked one time, even when the rest of her pack bark.
I go to the Vet for a full check up and updated vaccination on 1/10/24 but this Friday I have a Spa Day. After that, well share a Glam shot of me. I'm sure I will look very handsome!
To date we've spent $2708.19 on Oliver RI's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $1190 in donations.
For more information, contact my foster parents at: fortheloveofyorkies42@gmail.com.

Buddy is a beautiful yorkie boy who is being fostered near Clarksville, TN. Buddy has a very sad story. Buddy was returned to UYR today. He was found with his deceased owners by police after a wellness check was requested at his residence. It appears to have been a home invasion. It is believed that Buddy was in the home alone for 4 days with his mom and dad. He was taken by animal control to the Humane Society. Where he stayed for over a week. As soon as we heard about this tragic event, we immediately began working to bring Buddy back to UYR. We worked with Humane Society to ensure Buddy had his medication for his glaucoma. As you can imagine Buddy has been through a lot. However, Buddy is doing very well. He seems to be happy and active. He loves attention and definitely likes to be around people. He does great with other dogs and children and his favorite thing in the world is belly rubs. As Buddy adjusts to his foster home we will update you on his progress.

Rusty had to have a recheck on his bloodwork due to his values being off. We think he has a flea or tick born disease so he wasnt able to have his dental yet. He was started in a course of steroids and antibiotics a week ago and had a recheck again. He is improving but could take awhile before healed completely. If he doesnt continue to improve he may have an auto immune disease and will have to see a specialist. For those who dont know his story, Rusty was found abandoned on a busy street flea infested and matted. He has cataracts but can get around well. Rusty is a super sweet dog, well behaved and seems to be houstrained. Rusty rides well in a car and listens to his person and minds very well. He gets along with other dogs great and walks well on a leash for any questions email foster mom at mandymsmith1@yahoo.com to help with his care go to www.uyr.us and click the PayPal button underneath his bio.
Initial Bio 10/4/24
Rusty was found on a busy road at 11pm. The person almost hit him with her car and stopped and rescued him. Rusty was weak and flea and tick infested and matted. She took him to the shelter the next day in hopes that he was someones dog and that he would be claimed. No one claimed him during the stray hold and the shelter reached out to United Yorkie Rescue so of course we said we would be happy to help this sweet boy. Foster family decided to call him Rusty and off to the Dogtor he went to get a check up. Rusty was able to get all shots and has been treated for the fleas and ticks. He did not have parasites which is wonderful. His bloodwork showed that he is a bit anemic which is understandable due to the fleas and ticks but is now on the mend feeling much more energetic and he is eating and drinking well. He will have a recheck on his bloodwork in two weeks and if all has stabilized he will have a dental and then be ready for adoption. Rusty does have some arthritis on his hind end and grade one luxation of the knees on his back legs. This is common in yorkies and the arthritis is due to his age which the Dogtor estimated to be between 10 and 13 years so we went with 12yrs old for him. Rusty does have cataracts due to his age but still can see some and gets around just like any full seeing doggie. Rusty seems to be doing great in the house training area and will go on pads as well but enjoys going outside to potty. We have not heard him bark he is easy going , rides great in the car and he lays in his dog bed or on the couch most of the time. He gets along well with other dogs. If you would like to give Rusty a home for the rest of his Senior Years please email Foster Mom at mandymsmith1@yahoo.com or fill out an application for this sweet well behaved boy. If you would like to donate to his care in Rescue please click the PayPal like below.
To date we've spent $1826.45 on Rusty's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $1195 in donations.

Autumn TX
Meet precious Autumn, an 5-6 year old, 8 pound Yorkie girl being fostered in Georgetown, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.
THANK YOU TO AUTUMN'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Cheryl Scrupski, Yvette Vangeloff, Wendy Henry
Update 11/7/24: Oh my goodness! We have a lot to share about this absolutely adorable little girl. She has been with her foster family for 2 months and what an absolute fun, energetic, kind lovable angel. She is full of life and she never stops playing, eating, and being a love bug. If your family has a very very playful Yorkie and a playful large dog then this is the baby you have been looking for. Autumn would be best with another young Yorkie that wants a buddy to be by her side...she is very energetic and wants to be on the go every minute..
Autumn will get in your lap and snuggle in your arms then turn her face sideways so she can get lots of kisses. She loves to be outdoors, go for walks, (could use a little training on that part) lol ride in the car, and most of all play play play. She would do best with someone that is home most of the time since she does thrive on attention and play time. She has no aggression to other dogs, people, or food...she respects other dogs' space and eating time. Autumn hasnt been around children at her foster home but children around 8 or older would be perfect for them because she loves to be playful and go for walks. I forgot to mention that she is very spoiled!
She is up to date on vaccines, spayed, had her dental. If you think sweet Autumn is a baby that can add so much fun to your family please email foster mom at uyrtxbets@gmail.com
Initial Bio 9/21/24: Here she is absolutely adorable Autumn who came into UYR just 24 hours ago and what a cutie. She is 8 lbs of energy who jumps up high and spins when she is excited for her dinner or to go for a walk. Her first night she laid between her foster mom and dad and didn't make a peep all night...snuggle baby for sure. We get a laugh watching her because she is always moving like a hummingbird and never stops.
She hangs out with 3 foster dogs but she would best be in her new home as an only baby. That's because she loves lots of attention and getting and giving many kisses.
Autumn is up to date on her vaccines but on Sept 28 she will be spayed and have her dental. So far she shows us that she is potty trained and loves to be outdoors to explore.
Send an email to foster mom if you would like updates on her antics..
Please complete an application below if you are interested in more information in this little girl.
To date we've spent $1173.78 on Autumn TX 's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $35 in donations.
For more information, contact my foster parents at: uyrtxbets@gmail.com .

THANK YOU TO ELLIE'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Susan Johnson, Sandy Pagnotta, Elba Short, Ellen Chokreff, Angie Cagle, Pamela Reynolds, Barbara Burgess, Anne Hicks
Bio Update 11/23/24: Meet Ellie AKA CoCo. Everyone needs Cocoa to warm up in the winter, and someone special will get Coco to warm their heart this holiday. She is stocking stuffer sized at 6.4lbs!!!! This little lady is all sugar, no spice. Coco finds herself back in the rescue due to her adopters experiencing hardship. She really is the perfect lap companion, and she is most definitely travel sized for all your adventures. She loves going on walks(short ones, she has short little legs!) & absolutely loves going on adventures, even if its just to Target. She has a follow-up visit scheduled with the Doggy Doc. All she wants for Christmas is a wonderful forever home. If your family could use some Coco to warm their hearts please fill out your application today using the link below. Please reach out to her foster parent with any questions or comments you may have!
Initial Bio 5/31/24: Hello! My name is Ellie! I am a 8-10 year old(ladies don't reveal their age!) I'm short, sweet, & Petite at only 6lbs, but that is 6lbs of the best thing in the world...........ME! I was rescued from a park where some nice people had found me, I was very scared, and didn't know what was going on. They think I was a breeder Yorkie that wasn't useful to the before people anymore, so they dumped me off, it was very sad and scary. I don't like to think about it. The nice people took very good care of me, and they got me over to Foster Mommy at UYR.
Foster Mommy quickly moved into action and now has me an appropriate wardrobe for a lady of my size. Foster Mommy assures me that she has an excellent selection of this years hottest styles and selections. It has been a ruff life before, but Foster Mommy has promised to get me to a forever home that can keep up with my fashion needs, after all, a girl needs more than one dress for each day.
We went to the Doggy Doctor today, and my heart is very strong, and I am in excellent health other than a twitchy luxating patella?(foster mommy says its my knee). I have to go get a mammary growth checked out along with a spay this coming week. I was a very good girl at the Doctor, but I got shots to get current on all my vaccines, but did not get a lollipop :( But Foster Mommy made it up to me with a low fat yogurt treat(I like to watch my figure)
My hobbies include going on long walks; they are long to me! I have little short legs so I need to be carried in my stroller like a proper princess for those longer excursions. I love to snuggle on the couch with Foster Mommy; and currently am catching up with my favorite shows.
I'm looking for my forever home, I can only offer my unconditional love & devotion. Please if you think you might be the one, contact Foster Mommy via email yorkierescuetexas@yahoo.com even if you don't think you can have me in your home, you can still help me or the other yorkies with a donation, every little bit helps! I'm sending Pawstive Vibes to all of you nice people reading this!
To date we've spent $310.01 on Ellie TX's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $890 in donations.

Fitzgerald

Texas
Fitzgerald
Meet Fitzgerald, a precious 1-2 year old, 8-10 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in Austin, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.
THANK YOU TO FITZGERALD'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Sandy Pagnotta
Initial Bio 12/4/24: Say hi to the precious love bug Fitzgerald! Fitz has been with us for just over a week and I cannot imagine life without him already. Hes the most cuddly, loving little guy. Hes house trained, great with dogs and people. He happily lives with a Labrador and a 6 year old with no issues. He even likes to have a fun romping play around with our lab despite the 40 pound weight difference! I look forward to getting him groomed and showing off his gorgeous hair next week once he has recovered from his neuter surgery and can safely be bathed.
We were lucky enough to have him over Thanksgiving and he handled all the change and travel like a champ. Fitzgerald did great on a 3 hour car ride and temporarily living in a house with 2 other dogs, 6 adults, and 3 young kids. Thanksgiving festivities added 5 more adults and 4 more young kids which he did great with. He does seem to get stressed by toddlers (under age 3) when they follow him and dont read his social cues, so a home with kids over age 3 would be best.
He adores other dogs and always wants to say hi to new friends on walks. Fitz is so well mannered and respectful when greeting other dogs. He loves going for walks and exploring. Even more, he LOVES being cuddled and brushed. Fitz will happily lay on your lap dozing and watching tv while you scratch or brush him for an hour. He loves his humans and greets me every time I come home with full body tail wags and face kisses. If youre looking for a new best friend to go on adventures and binge watch tv with, Fitzgerald is your guy!
To date we've spent $687.61 on Fitzgerald 's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $25 in donations.

Kee

Texas
Kee TX
Meet Kee, a handsome 3 year old, 15 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in McKinney, TX. Only Texas residents will be considered.
Update 11/09/24: Whew,,, I am so glad that summer is finally over. So I have been teaching Foster Mom some more of my personality and a couple of quirks.
I love the sun outside. I am not a huge player of toys. Occasionally I like to get into the fun when the other foster resident puppers are playing with each other or playing chase outside, but not too often. I am still working on my potty training, but I am smart so I know I will get there.
Foster mom calls me a Lonewolf these days. That is because I prefer to eat my food by myself and away from everybody else and I need to be by myself or I will not eat. I prefer to relax in out-of-the-way places, but where I can still watch all the action. There are times I prefer to go outside to do my business and sun all by myself.
I still haven't been able to tell her what kind of breed other than some Yorkie that I am. If you have any ideas, please let Foster mom know. Also if you have any questions about me you can contact her at stickhors@gmail.com
Kee
Update 9/6/24: Hi, it is me Kee. Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you. It has taken a while for Foster mom to find some history about me so let's start with that.
A very kind gentleman saw that I and my buddy Sage were being sold by two homeless guys in a homeless camp. We were disheveled and flea ridden, had no collars or harnesses or leashes. The nice gentleman had such a kind heart that he bought both Sage and I from the two homeless guys to get us out of our horrible living situation. He took us to his home and got us cleaned up and groomed. He also was able to find my original records from when the homeless guys took me to a vet clinic to get neutered and my shots. After getting cleaned up, he reached out to us to see if we could help them get adopted. Naturally United Yorkie Rescue (UYR) wanted to help these poor boys.
It has taken me a while to learn to trust hoomans. I was pretty much shut down the first few weeks here. I have just recently in the past three weeks have started to come out of my shell. I want FM to give me some loving and pets. I bring her a toy in exchange for these pets and the sweet encouraging words she tells me. I am still learning about toys probably cause I have never had any before. I have learned how to play chase with my foster brother Percy and the resident dog Legend here and we sure can run fast and in circles in the backyard. I enjoy sunbathing outside and using my sniffer to discover the new scents that I smell. FM has let me come out of my shell slowly at my own pace. I am starting to show her that I have a happy personality and I interact more with her these days. It has taken me a long time to trust, but that is probably because of my past. I don't know how to tell FM about my past and how I was treated or where I came from.
So FM thinks I may be part Norwich Terrier or a Cairn Terrier with some Yorky mixed in there. It would be hard to say without having a DNA test done. I am guesstimated to be about three years old so I'm still very young and I weigh in just a little over 14 pounds. I am learning how to be brushed. I do have some food guarding issues so I am fed in a different area from the other pups here. I just growl at the other dogs and let them know not to come near me if I have food in my bowl I will let FM pick up my bowl, even if there's food in it and I won't get upset with her. I now join the clan in the kitchen when she's preparing all the food bowls for everyone that lives here I will check the other bowls for any leftover kibble and usually there isn't any, but if there is, I will scarf it up. I need to be told to take my treats gently. I walk very well with a harness and a leash. I am not totally house trained, but we are working on that. I wear a male doggy belly band around my private parts so I get to tinkle in that instead of in the house.
I am neutered, I have my very own microchip, I tested heartworm negative and I have the 12 month shot for preventative for both Heartworms, fleas and ticks. I tested negative on my fecal, My teeth look good and I am UTD on all my vaccinations. Now I'd like to tell you what I'd love to have in the home that I am searching for.
NO CHAIN-LINK FENCES
A SECURE FENCE IF YOU HAVE A BACKYARD.
NO APARTMENTS AS I AM A HOWLER WHEN YOU GET HOME.
A STAY AT HOME PAWRENT WOULD BE PAWSOME.
SOME FUN TOYS TO PLAY WITH, NUTRITIONAL FOOD AND GREAT TREATS, LOTS OF PETS AND LOVING, A NICE SOFT BED TO SLEEP IN NAP IN AND MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL LOTS OF PATIENCE FROM YOU.
FOSTER MOM IS STILL TRYING TO DECIDE WHETHER I NEED TO BE ADOPTED WITH SAGE.
If you believe you have all these wonderful things that I would like in my future home, you can submit an application below at the end of my biography. If you have any questions you'd like to ask my foster mom feel free to email her at stickhors@gmail.com
Thank you so much
Initial Bio 7/19/2024: Hello everyone in this beautiful world. My name is. Kee and I arrived at my foster home on 7/19/2024. I have only been here for two days so everybody's getting to know each other. I get to go see the Dogter 7/30/24 and have a check up.
Stay tuned as I get more comfortable and let some of my personalities show through.
To date we've spent $593.35 on Kee TX's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $100 in donations.

Mila
Meet Mila, a precious 8 month old, 7 pound PREGNANT Yorkie girl being fostered in McKinney, TX. Mila will not be available for some time because after the birth, she will be nursing her pup and after weaning, will be able to be spayed. Only Texas applicants will be considered. Mila's adoption fee is $1200.
THANK YOU TO MILA'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Roberta Johnson, Sandy Pagnotta, David and Diana Lavine, Chuck Demling, Carol Nelson, Yvette Vangeloff, Wendy Henry, Yvette Vangeloff, Cheryl Scrupski, Carol Gostomski, Sandra Wendt, Crystal Dicosola, Pam Roberts
Update 11/6/24: Boy does time fly when you're a mommy. It's been six weeks since I had my puppy, Rising Sun. I've been an amazing mom. Rising Sun is weaned. My milk has dried up so I can get spayed. YIPPEE!!! No more puppies. They are a lot of work. On November 15, I will go to our favorite Dogter and get my spay done.
I tell you what, it has been so exciting to learn how to become a puppy myself. Playing tug-of-war, chase, tag and Mexican standoff chase with Percy sure is a lot of fun.
I'm still very shy meeting new people so I'm very slow to warm up to anybody. Hopefully that will change with time.
Queen Mila
Update 9/19/24: Mila went into labor last evening and at 3 am today delivered a healthy, precious little girl. Momma and baby are doing well and Mila is proving to be an attentive new mom.
Initial Bio 8/30/24: I wanted to introduce precious little Mila (pronounced Meela) to you all! Mila and her litter mate arrived in rescue from a gentleman that was dropping them off a local animal shelter. We immediately transferred these littles to our area vet. Mila is a mere 6 lbs, she's between 7 or 8 mths old and she is pregnant! Yes you read that right! A puppy having a puppy or puppies. She is just absolutely the sweetest snuggle bug but has clearly lacked the love of a human. Mila won't be available for immediate adoption until she delivers, completes nursing her pups and is spayed, but please stay in touch with us as we go on this journey. Please, if possible, consider a donation as well. Your donations help all of our sweet littles. Bless you and thank you!
Adoption Pending
To date we've spent $1042.53 on Mila's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $690 in donations.
For more information, contact my foster parents at: stickhors@gmail.com.

Mocha

Texas
Mocha
Meet Mocha, a sweet 2 year old, 11 pound Yorkie mix girl being fostered in Cedar Park, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.
THANK YOU TO MOCHA'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Sandy Pagnotta, Pam Roberts, Crystal Dicosola
Update 11/8/24: Mocha is currently going through some behavioral training to see if she would be a good match for an outside home. She truly loves her foster mom and her fursibling so if she is to be adopted, we would want someone who is kind and patient and allows her to adjust to her new surroundings. She will attach to her adopter very quickly and wants nothing more than to be loved. She doesn't like when strangers enter her home and she needs time to decompress when they enter. After a short while she will come to you and accept you into her pack. Please be patient as we seek answers for her future.
UPDATE 10/7: We are putting her adoption status on hold while we complete some new medical.
Update 9/19/24: Mocha is a real Texas Love Bug!! Her adopters will wonder how they ever lived without her as part of their family. Thats exactly what she wants to be by you, do everything with you, and give you hugs and kisses to let you know how much she appreciates you.
Please scroll through Mochas previous monthly profile updates, below - and if you are interested in adopting her, click on the Adoption Application link below or contact her foster mom at the email address listed below. And thank you for your interest in adopting a United Yorkie Rescue dog!
Update 8/6/24: If you're hoping to meet a sweet young doll who wants nothing more than to follow you everywhere (including the bathroom) then Mocha is your girl! Mocha gets along well with other small dogs and would love another younger dog in the family to romp and play with. Somewhere in her short life, Mocha has learned that protecting her people is her number one job and her first instinct when meeting people or some dogs on a walk is to show them that she is the entire police force in one little package. But, she's learning that no one wants to hurt her or her people. Her Furever Home should be calm, quiet, chaos free and without children because, right now, she confuses high energy play, voice or yelling as threatening. Foster mom believes that Love Conquers All and says that Mocha is a smart little cookie that wants to please her family more than anything so she's trying hard to overcome her negative instinct thing but it will take your help.
As reported in earlier profile updates, Mocha loves belly rubs and any attention that is given to her. She enjoys laying on the grass in the sunshine every day and she does well on a leash and loves walks. She knows what sit, stay, wait and quiet means. Mocha rides well in a car and she loves to sleep beside her person at night. Mocha now weighs 15 pounds and she's healthy, microchipped, is fully vaccinated, had a successful dental including teeth clean/polish and now tests heartworm negative, and she is on a regular monthly protection preventative.
Mocha is a special gal hoping to find her Furever Home. If you are interested in adopting her, click on the Adoption Application link below or contact her foster mom at the email address listed below. And thank you for your interest in adopting a United Yorkie Rescue dog!
Update 6/26/24: Hi! Its me Miss Mocha, your very own Texas Beauty Queen! It is summertime now and I read my email every day, hoping this will be the day that my Furever Family is going to click on Submit Application at www.uyr.us. Just look at me now: I am healthy, microchipped, have had all of my shots, had my teeth polished, tested heartworm negative and I am on regular monthly prevention protection just like my other rescue friends. My favorite things to do are: follow you wherever you to throughout the house, sit on your lap, and cuddle my neck in the crook of your neck. I adore belly rubs and any other attention that you give to me. I like to lay in the sunshine every day and I love to take short walks when the sidewalk is cool. I like it when you toss my toys and I can run fast and slide on the floor to fetch them. My foster mom says that I am super smart and I know what sit, stay, and quiet mean. I like car rides and I would like it if you would allow me to sleep beside you at night but if not, please make me a bed that touches your bed because I want to be as close to you as possible. You just have to show me what you want and I will learn how to do it because I see stars and rainbows whenever you pat me on the head and say, Good girl, Mocha!.
Update 4/4/24: Happy Spring from Mocha! I'm enjoying the beautiful Spring weather of Texas Hill Country and having great times watching the butterflies and smelling all of the fresh new outdoor smells. I have a carefree and loving personality and I am told that I am a soulful little gal. The thing I like best in the whole world? Its to be in the lap of my person. I put the V in the term Velcro dog. I must warn you: I come with my own set of rules like: you will never go to the bathroom alone for the rest of your life and you will never walk from one room to another without me by your side.
I am a Yorkie mix and I'm in the 2nd month of a four month-long treatment plan to address heartworms. The vet says I'm otherwise in good health and I am working on my social skills and manners with my foster mom every day. I will do best as an only dog or with two or more other small dogs where I can settle into the pack. I am a smart young dog of school age. I really want to please my family, that's one way that I show my love!
I like to play with my toys every day and I will scramble after them when you toss them but I haven't got the hang of bringing them back to you yet. If you're interested, you can visit www.uyr.us and scroll to Adoption Applications; my foster mom will contact all applicants.
Initial Bio 2/20/24: Meet Mocha, a 2 year old, 11 lb Yorkie that's all sugar and no spice. She recently had puppies, but unfortunately, none of them survived, and she found herself abandoned in a shelter shortly afterwards. But UYR couldn't let this little lady languish like that. She is currently undergoing heartworm treatment and has a 4 month treatment plan started already. She is now current on all vaccinations and is awaiting a spay.
If you're looking for a furry friend to brighten up your days, look no further than Mocha, the adorable Yorkie who is ready to steal your heart. She is a bundle of joy wrapped in fur, with a playful personality that will make you smile from ear to ear. This little lady is always ready for a snuggle on the couch, or a walk around the block making every moment spent with her a special one.
With her silky coat and expressive eyes, Mocha is sure to turn heads wherever she goes. Whether you're out for a walk in the park or cuddled up at home, Mocha will be by your side, ready to shower you with love and affection. She is also a proper and classy lady, she is housetrained and goes outside.
If you're ready to welcome Mocha into your home and heart, get in touch today with her Foster Mommy via email at to submit your application & Get ready for a lifetime of tail wags, wet kisses, and unforgettable memories with your new best friend, Mocha!

Nugget

Texas
Nugget
Meet Nugget, a sweet 3-4 year old, 7 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in Round Rock, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.
THANK YOU TO NUGGET'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Sandy Pagnotta
Initial Bio 11/9/24: Nugget is one of three yorkies (Theo and Violet) that were brought into UYR Due to neglect. Nugget has only been with his foster for two weeks and we are already in love with him. This little guy has a spunky personality with so much love to give and receive. His favorite place is on your lap or curled up next to you on the sofa. He's not shy about asking for attention and will give gentle kisses in return. The cutest thing ever is when he finds a sock to play with and starts zooming around. Nugget loves being outdoors but prefers his humans to be with him. He gets along well with the other two small dogs in the home and doesn't appear to have any aggression issues. He isn't happy being in a crate and will let you know it isn't his favorite thing. His happy place is snuggling and cuddling with his Mom and Dad right up next to them in bed.
He loves the outdoors and does well with his potty training as long as he is taken out often to explore and run in a secure fenced yard. Nugget is up to date on vaccines, heart worm negative and has been neutered.
All he needs now is a family who wants lots and lots of love. Even though he did well while being supervised around a small child, it is recommended that his adoption would be best with no children under 12.
For more information about Nugget please contact his foster Mom at uyrjujutx@gmail.com
Adoption Pending
To date we've spent $491.59 on Nugget's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $25 in donations.

Meet Percy, a handsome 1.5 year old, 8 pound Yorkie Mix boy being fostered in McKinney, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.
THANK YOU TO PERCY'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Sandy Pagnotta, David and Diana Lavine, Shawlome
Update 11/6/24: I am still looking for you to come fall in love with me and take me home.
Foster Mom says she's noticed a few more quirks about me. So here they are.
I'm getting more comfortable here, but I'm still very skittish and barky and scared of new people and because of that it takes a very long time for me to warm up to you. But when I do, it will be worth the time and patience that you waited for me to fall in love with you. I promise you I am absolutely worth it. I've fallen in love with my foster mom. I give very gentle kisses, I love to snuggle with her and fall asleep in the crook of her knee at night. I am very protective of my yard and lead the army of the other resident Fosters with warning barks.
You can read more about me in the biographies below
I'd really love to find my Furever family and home before Christmas.
Update 10/3/24: Happy Fall to to my future Pawrent(s). Who is ready to fall in love with me and take me home?
I am Percy and I was recently rescued by United Yorkie Rescue. The Dogter guesstimates that I am one and a half to two years old when I went to get my initial check up. At my health check up they gave me a thumbs up for my health and my teeth. I did get neutered, a heartworm test, a fecal test and they put a microchip in me besides all the age appropriate shots I needed. I tested negative for Heartworms and use HeartGuard and NexGuard every month now. My fecal was negative, so that's a good thing too. I am now the entire package ready to go home with you
So let's chat about my personality. I am curious about everything. I am still learning about my new boundaries and rules. I wake up happy and I go to bed happy. In between that time I love playing chase with the other rescue pups here inside the house and outside in the big backyard. I like playing with my toys and can keep myself entertained with them. I like to steal from the other dogs just to be taking the toys away from them. I still dig into the toy boxes and naturally the toy that I want is at the very bottom so I make a complete mess. I also need more potty training and learning how to walk with a leash with my Hooman.
As for sleeping or nap time, my favorite place is in the crook of your knee or any place up alongside you. I am definitely a snuggler and cuddler at night time. I also like to show you how much I love you with my sweet gentle kisses.
My Future Home will have,,,
*NO CHAIN LINK FENCES
*NO DOGGIE DOORS
*Stay at home or work from home Pawrent(s)
*A secure fenced backyard would be awesome
*If you have a furchild already that I can play with, that would make me very happy
*No apartments please because I do bark a lot
*I will need to be brushed and groomed regularly
*No children under 12
*A very nice comfy lap for me to nap in or a really comfy bed that I could nap in, but if you're not busy, I would want to nap in your lap
UYR requires you to fill out an adoption application to start the adoption process. You can find a direct link to my application at the end of these biographies. If you have any questions, you can also reach out to my Foster Mom at
stickhors@gmail.com
Happy Trails to you,
Ruv, Percy
Initial Bio 8/9/24: Hi everyone. My name is Percy. I am one of the 12 puppers recently rescued by United Yorkie Rescue. So here is what Foster Mom does know about me. I am guesstimated to be about 18 months old. I weigh in at 8 1/2 pounds. I have been neutered, I have my very own microchip, I'm up-to-date on all my vaccinations, I tested heartworm negative, my fecal was negative and I did not need a dental because I'm still such a young pup. I take my heartworm and flea and tick medication's every month now.
I am very inquisitive and will follow you almost everywhere to see what you're doing or what you're getting into. I love digging in the toy boxes to pull out toys and put them every which way in the living room just so FM can put them back where they belong in the toybox. I have a lot of fun here initiating play with the other foster pups. One of my favorite games is playing tag or Chase. It doesn't matter which as long as I am running fast.
I am very much the little snuggle bug when it comes to napping and nighttime sleeping. I would prefer to sleep right next to you and keep you warm if you'd let me. I love to give kisses to let you know how much I love you. I am just a very happy go lucky guy. Sure, I still need some training in the potty department and walking with the leash and harness.
My dream home would have:
* A stay at home or work from home parent(s).
* A friend for me to play with. I can play with the little guys and I can play with the guys up to 15 pounds.
* A secure fenced backyard would be a bonus.
* No apartments please because I am a little barker at all noises.
* I will need to be brushed and groomed regularly.
* No children under 10 please.
* A very nice comfy lap for me to nap in.
If you have any questions about me, you can reach out to my FM at stickhors@gmail.com

THANK YOU TO RILEY'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Sandy Pagnotta
Initial Bio 11/10/24: Hello to all my potential furever families! My name is Riley and I am so so so happy to have been rescued by the UYR team! The picture UYR took of me was right after my haircut. It's the first haircut I have had in over 18 months. I still was not certain that anything had changed for me and I don't look very happy. I don't know time, but I can tell you that I feel like I was put in jail for some reason that I don't understand. I don't have too much memory about all of that time, I just know I was always hungry, itchy, and hurting. Foster Mom says I was depressed because of the NEGLECT. She says that word has to be in all capitals because it's a very bad word.
I was once a very happy healthy 12 lb yorkie boy. But something in my life changed and I was no longer being cared for like I once was. Nobody was feeding me regularly, taking me outside in the sunshine regularly, or getting my haircut regularly. The NEGLECT during this time has made me drop down to 9 lbs, have very red and swollen feet and skin, infected ears, and bowed out legs. Foster Mom says no furbaby should ever lose a fourth of their entire body in such a short period of time!!!! The NEGLECT is very very bad indeed!
All the nice people at UYR and my new dogter have said I never have to worry about the NEGLECT again. I still have a ways to go yet, but I am feeling much better. I have foster siblings to play with, am taking medicine, eating regularly, taking nice baths, and taking short walks out in the sunshine! Foster Mom says all of this will help me heal from the NEGLECT. I am also starting to dream about a furever family. I would like a family that will let me continue to do all of these things and never ever ever think about the NEGLECT again.
Thank you for listening to my story and considering making me your furever baby. Foster Mom said she will send new pics once I've had a chance to heal some more. If you can help the good people at UYR continue their mission of rescuing other furbabies like me, please click the link below my story and donate. Your help makes for happy endings!
Hugs and Kisses -- Riley

Texas
Rising Sun (aka Dawn)
Meet Rising Sun, a precious 6 week old, 2.5 pound Yorkie Mix girl being fostered in McKinney, TX. Her adoption fee is $1500. Only Texas applicants will be considered.
Initial Bio 11/4/24: Drumroll,,,
May I have your attention please?
Introducing Princess Rising Sun of Stickhorse Ranch, daughter of Queen Mila.
On September 19, 2024 I came into this wonderful world at about 3 AM in the morning. I am a beautiful Black and Tan Yorkie mix puppy girl and I weigh a little over 2 1/2 pounds of sweetness and puppy breath.
I am an inquisitive girl almost 6 weeks old. I will get my first set of puppy shots in two weeks. I am weaned from my Mommy and eating both soft canned puppy food and hard kibble for puppies all from Hills Science Diet.
I am learning how to play with toys and the other foster residents here. I also have discovered my voice. I am very, very curious and always looking for a way to escape the condo Foster Mom built for mommy and me and so far I have not escaped, but I will very soon in the future.
I need to get three sets of puppy shots before I can be adopted. Each set of puppy shots are four weeks apart. So if everything goes according to plans I should be able to join my Furever Family and Castle in the second week of January 2025. Being a girl, I will also need to be spayed in the future.
In the meantime, as I become a more mature puppy, I will be showing my personality, quirks and possible bad habits, so stay tuned as I will be back and updating my biography as I grow older.
If you find you have a few extra bucks in your pockets or purses, would you please consider a donation to UYR for me and my future veterinarian bills?
If you have any questions about me, you can email my Foster, mom. @ stickhors@gmail.com
To date we've spent $0 on Rising Sun (aka Dawn)'s vet bills, but with your support we've collected $0 in donations.
For more information, contact my foster parents at: stickhors@gmail.com.

Meet Sage, a sweet 5 year old, 8 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in McKinney, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.
THANK YOU TO SAGE'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Lauren Satterfield, Jacqueline Vinson in memory of Bella Hedges, David and Diana Lavine
Update 11/09/24: Finally, it looks like Summer has left us and brought us well deserved cooler weather.
I forgot to mention in my last biography that UYR did take me to an eye specialist Dogter to see if anything could be done to help me regain some or any of my vision. They ran some tests and came back to tell Foster mommy the sad news that I had double detached retina, and they have been that way for a very long time and there really wasn't anything they could do for me. Fortunately I did not have dry eye syndrome so there are no need for drops. I do need to go see the eye specialist once the year so they can check my eyes and make sure I'm producing teardrops and I do not have dry eye syndrome. If that does happen to happen in the future, the eyedrop's aren't that expensive
Since I last checked in, I can let you know that I've learned to navigate more of Stickhorse Ranch and the backyard. I still love my foster daddy though, so I guess you can say I'm a boy dog looking for my Seeing Eye Hooman Guy. I like foster mom, but she's definitely not my favorite. I have the best doggy watch in the world. If I don't have supper in front of me at 6 PM, I will start doing circles and pacing up and down the hallway. I really am a sweet, gentle guy, I love snuggling with you and under the covers and in the covers. I do love to play with toys and I love playing with my treats before I devour them. I really am a very laid-back guy. I don't need much or ask for much other than you to be my special person to take care of me and spoil me the way I should be spoiled.
It will just take time for us to warm up to each other so if you were looking for a really special guy, I'm it. I will follow you Furever and ever. If you have any questions you can reach out to my foster mommy at stickhors@gmail.com
Update 9/10/24: Hello, Sage is reporting back in to tell you what's been going on in my life since July 19. I'd love to tell you a little bit more about me.
A very kind gentleman saw that I was with my buddy Kee. We were being sold by two homeless guys in a homeless camp. We were in terrible condition. Both of us were disheveled, full of fleas and dirty. We didn't have collars or harness or a leash. We both just kind of free roamed the camp. This really nice guy had such a Yorkie heart and felt so sorry for us that he paid the homeless guys money so he could take us home with him. First thing he did was give us a bath in his apartment. Boy did that feel good and then made an appointment for his groomer to get us a little bit more cleaned up and looking like a real dogs. I need to mention that Kee was my buddy at this homeless camp so he bought Kee also. We were so happy to get out of that horrible living condition and get away from all those homeless people. He found our original records which foster mom has a copy of. I have had most of my vaccinations, neutered, I have my very own microchip so if I ever get lost, and the microchip has been registered and kept up-to-date, I can find my way back home. After Kee and I were all nice and clean and we stayed with him for a week. He realized that I was totally blind because I bumped into the walls when I first got into his home. He reached out to United Yorkie Rescue (UYR). He was going to try and keep us, but he figured out that three Yorkies in an apartment was a bit too much for him. UYR jumped at the chance to help him and the both of us out. This is how we landed at Stickhorse Ranch in McKinney with our foster mom and foster dad and a few other foster dogs.
It has taken me a while to learn how to trust hoomans. I wish I could tell my foster family my living conditions in the homeless camp, but they suspect it wasn't very good as they learned about me, my habits, personality and quirks.
As soon as I got here, I attached myself to foster dad like a strong magnet. I have learned how to navigate the house very well. Because I am blind my other senses are heightened. I can smell food really good and I have super dog hearing. Foster dad accepts me as I am. I follow him everywhere all the time. I trust foster dad the most, probably because he has been the kindest man that I have been around so far.
I weigh in at 8 pounds and I am 5 years old so I am still a youngster. I am most likely all Yorkie with the mix of a couple of other breeds. I do have food guarding issues so I am fed in the bedroom where dad hangs out. FD helps me off the big bed and on the big bed. He has learned my signals on when I want to get up and down. I sleep with Foster dad every night. He gives me belly rubs and talks softly to me all the time.
I can get playful. FD says that when he initiates play that I will play "can I pretend I want to nibble on you" game with him. When I get a really cool treat, I will play with it for a few minutes. I will toss it up in the air and then sniff for it and do that several times and then I'll eat my treat. I do not mind being brushed gently and thunderstorms do not bother me. So now let us talk about what I would like in my beautiful and safe future home.
A male "seeing eye guy" as I prefer men over the ladies.
ABSOLUTELY NO POOLS.
NO CHAIN-LINK FENCES.
No doggie doors.
A very secure fenced in backyard.
Stay at home Pawrent.
My Pawrent will need to continue my training of going tinkle outside.
My future dad needs to have a lot of patience as we get to learn about each other.
Apartment living is OK with me as long as it is on the ground floor.
Having a very mellow fur buddy would be fine as I am not a big player with dogs or toys being blind and all.
Some very nutritious food and treats, lots of treats and lots of freshwater.
Most of all, I just want to find a guy that's gonna love me as much as I will love him.
If you have any questions, you can email my foster mom at the address below my biography. Below that you will also find a direct link for my application.
I hope to hear from you soon,
Ruv, Sage

Update 11/14/24: Woo Hoo!!! I had a birthday a couple of weeks ago and I turned into a one year old. Foster mommy gave me a little piece of steak, a piece of broccoli and carrot to round out my one year old birthday celebration meal. She baked me a cake, but it tasted awful, even all the other foster dogs didn't like it.
I am still a wild child. I only weigh 4 pounds and I want to play hard with dogs twice my size. I also am learning how to express my voice to get the things I want. I am mischievous and curious and want to know exactly what you were doing all the time. I love to chew on buttons. Now that it's gotten cooler I love to snuggle under the covers with foster mommy. I am definitely a lover.
Being a tripod doesn't stop me one little bit. I can run as fast as all the other kids here. I can wrestle just as hard as they can wrestle. I am not a quitter.
Foster mommy did notice one thing about me though. She thought I was potty trained because I always went outside. She caught me going tinkle in the hallway and in the dining room. So now I wear the band of shame. With it I don't seem to want to tinkle inside the house so foster mommy says better safe than sorry.
I am still desperately searching for my person and or my family. I sure would like to have a home by Christmas. I'm kind of yearning for a retired couple so they can give me all the attention in the world, and I deserve it all considering my sad start of life. You can catch up on my story if you scroll down to the very end of my biography and start at the beginning when I introduced myself and saved by United Yorkie Rescue which I am so very grateful for.
If you have any questions about cute, adorable me you can reach out to my foster mommy at
stickhors@gmail.com
If you find you have a few extra dollars in your wallet or pocketbook, could you please consider making a donation to UYR? You're wonderful and generous donations helps UYR help the little ones that can't speak for themselves. UYR is not selective about who they rescue, all they wanna do is fix every dog and find them their fairy tail endings
Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving
Love Teddy Bear AKA Zander
Update 10/2/24: Hello Eberybody, So it has been six weeks since my original biography and it's time to give you guys a pupdate about what's been going on in my life and leg in that time. Let's start with my medical update.
As you all have read in my initial biography (see below) I have a broken left front leg. After six weeks of monitoring, getting new casts, X-rays, crate rest and trying to let my itty-bitty bones mend with a semi cast the Dogters decided that it was just not healing properly so they concluded that we needed to figure out another game plan. There were two options that we could try. An external fixation or an amputation. To make a long story short UYR decided on the amputation.
On 9/22 I became a tripod. On that same day I was also neutered and had a dental. They pulled some baby teeth that did not fall out on their own. Foster mom says that I do not look like a deranged double-fang Dogcula anymore.
Now I am the full package. I have been neutered. There is one of those microchips in my body in case I get lost. I received a dental, I am heartworm negative and on Heartworm and flea and tick preventives. I tested negative on my fecal and I have had my rabies and age appropriate vaccinations. I am pawsitivly ready to go home with you whenever you are ready to adopt me. I am about 11 months old and I weigh a whopping 4 pounds.
I have been on crate rest since the day I arrived at Stickhorse Ranch on August 10. Now I am on a nice pen rest. I can watch everything that's going on and I have a little more room to myself for these first few days.
As for my personality, I can only show FM just a little bit because I only have a little bit of space for myself. I have been able to show her I'm always a happy guy. When I get a chance to get on the big bed, I love snuggling, under the covers, between the covers and on top of the covers. I play well with my own toys all by myself. I enjoy being outside as I get to go out by myself with FM for now. There is lots to explore out there and lots of new smells to use my sniffer on.
This is what I'd like to have for my future home.
*NO CHAIN LINK FENCES
*No doggie doors
*No apartments as I am a barker
*No children under the age of 12
*A very secure fenced in backyard
*Stay or work from home Pawrent(s)
*My Pawrent(s) will need to continue with training. I am still a puppy remember
*My future furever furmily will need patience as I am a little slow and shy in the beginning
*If you have a playful little Prince or Princess that would be pawsome
*Yummy nutritional food and treats, freshwater, and lots of treats, did I mention treats?
Most of all, I would love to find my furever home and my furever furmily. Could you pawsibly be that castle, my King and/or Queen?
If you have any questions, you can email my foster mom at the address below my biography. Below that you will also find a direct link for my application.
Ruff, Teddy Bear
Initial Bio 8/18/24: Hi everyone, we'd like to introduce Teddy Bear to you!
On August 10, 2024 VEG (Veterinary Emergency Group) reached out to United Yorkie Rescue about a 10 month old pup. He had broken his leg for the second time in 10 months and the owners wanted to euthanize him because they couldn't afford to fix his leg. WHAT!!!!EUTHANIZE a 10 month old baby. Well naturally UYR jumped at the opportunity to save this little guy.
That little guy was Teddy Bear and here is the rest of his story: I was picked up by 8 AM the next morning and brought to my foster home. My leg was in the soft cast and I got sent home with pain medication. Luckily we were able to see our vet on Monday. It was discussed how we should proceed to fix my broken leg . We decided to use the non-invasive way first. Which was to leave it in the soft cast and return in a week to see how I was healing because I am so very young and we heal quicker. We would take x-rays again in my next appointment and see what's going.
At that dogters appointment I tested heartworm and fecal negative and I got all my shots that I needed. Now I am on heartworm and flea and tick preventative monthly. I still need to be microchipped and neutered. I am a Yorkie Mix, 10 months old and weigh in at a whopping 4 lbs.
Foster Mom says, even though I have to stay in a big crate most of the time(I get 30 minutes of outside time twice a day) I am a pretty happy go lucky guy. When I'm on the outside, I try and play with the other dogs. I do like to play with small squeaky toys and crinkly toys. I am a good eater and I haven't had an accident inside yet.
As soon as FM has more information about what we're going to do with my leg and how it is healing. She'll be able to tell you more about me so right then so now if you have any questions about me you can ask FM at stickhors@gmail.com
To date we've spent $1458.85 on Teddy Bear TX's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $805 in donations.
For more information, contact my foster parents at: stickhors@gmail.com.

Texas
Theo
Meet Theo, a precious 2-4 year old, 9 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in Frisco, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.
THANK YOU TO THEO'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Sandy Pagnotta
Initial Bio 11/6/24: Theo is one of three Yorkies that were recently confiscated due to neglect. You would never know it by Theos disposition. He is a happy, playful, pup, ready for any adventure. He is estimated to be between three and four years old. He is very smart, and has quickly learned that if he goes potty outside, he gets a treat. Were still working on this, as occasionally, he still will wet the belly band. However the progress hes made in just the three days weve had him is great!
He loves toys, but his favorite is an old sock. He carries that thing around with him everywhere. If you toss it, he will chase it and bring it to you, but he does not like giving it back. He sometimes gets a little snippy about it. We are working on that.
He has been great with our Golden Retriever. He likes to visit her, sniff her, but respects her boundaries. Im sure he would play great with a smaller pup. He follows everyone in our household around, so curious about everything. He sleeps next to the bed on his blanket. He would love to sleep in the bed with his humans, but due to his recent neuter, we havent let him for fear he might try to jump off in the night and injure his stitches.
Theo loves being outdoors! When he goes out into the yard, he sniffs every inch, then he runs at full speed all around. Were planning to take him on his first leash walk this weekend. Hes been on one car ride to the store which ended fairly well. He was a little nervous at first but settled down.
Overall, he is a happy, curious pup just looking for someone to love on him. He will need a family willing to spend time with him and play with him. Due to time in his previously life in a kennel, we do not recommend crating him.
As my husband said, Theo will be someones new best friend. He will make an excellent companion.
Adoption Pending
To date we've spent $467.84 on Theo 's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $25 in donations.

Update 11/8/24: Tilly has settled in to her foster home perfectly. She is quite the matriarch and looks after all the other pups in the home. Tilly has an abundance of kisses to share and likes to be by her human's side at all times. She is a super good snuggle bug at night in bed. She sleeps through the night and even enjoys lazy days sleeping in. She is the sweetest little girl you will meet and absolutely loves everyone.
Update 9/17/24: Wolfie and Tilly are continuing to do very well in their foster home. They get along super well with the resident pups and might even be caught snuggling with one of them from time to time. Wolfie has finally settled down and does not exhibit an excessive amount of separation anxiety, but still prefers if someone is home with him. As does Tilly, but without so many vocal disapprovals. They both enjoy their walks in the morning and Wolfie enjoys sunning on the patio in the afternoon. They are perfect house guests and are very comfortable in their foster home. They love everyone and are just the most special and sweet pups. If interested, please submit an application at http://www.uyr.us or email foster parents at uyryorkielovetx@yahoo.com. Remember they are a package and must be adopted together.
7/4/24 Update: Tilly and her brother Wolfie wanted me to let everyone know that they are doing very well and are still looking for their forever home. They have been enjoying lots of quality time with their foster parents and are looking forward to meeting their forever family.

3/5/24 Update: Tilly and her brother Wolfie (a bonded pair) have been thriving in their foster home as they are patiently waiting for their new forever family to find them. Their foster parents say that they are two of the best dogs they have ever met and that whoever ends up adopting them will be VERY lucky. Tilly is as sweet as they come and has never met a stranger. She greets anyone she meets with lots of love and if given the chance lots of kisses. She likes to sleep in bed with her foster family and they say that she is an expert snuggler. If you are looking for a lap dog or cuddle buddy, Tilly is your girl. Tilly & Wolfie have been on several road trips with their fosters and they were also great travel companions.
2/3/24 Update: Tilly has completely healed from her extensive dental surgery and wow what a difference it has made in her life. Her fosters say that they can tell that she feels so much better now that her mouth is no longer in pain. Tilly's fosters say that she is very energetic, full of spunk, and LOVES to give kisses. Tilly appears to have appointed herself the role of house Mom of her foster home as she carefully watches over the other dogs in the home making sure everyone is ok at all times. Of course Tilly and her brother Wolfie share a very special bond and are never too far away from each other, and are always looking out for one another. It's very heartwarming to witness.

12/27/3 Initial Bio: Muttilda, aka Tilly, recently came into the care of UYR with her fur-brother Wolfgang, aka Wolfie under very sad circumstances. Tilly and Wolfie had a wonderful owner that loved and cared for them for over ten years. Unfortunately, their owner became unable to take care of her beloved fur-babies due to health issues. Family members contacted UYR for help with finding Tilly and Wolfie a new loving forever home. Tilly and Wolfie are a bonded pair that have been together for the past ten years and therefore will need to remain together.
Tilly is spayed and is up to date on all of her shots. However, she is in dire need of a dental cleaning and tooth extraction. She has a history of a having a heart murmur and when x-rayed by UYRs vet she had a slightly enlarged heart. After careful evaluation and consideration UYRs vet is confident that Tilly is healthy enough for dental surgery which will greatly improve her quality of life as her mouth is painfully infected. Tilly was given an antibiotic shot to help with the mouth infection and is scheduled for the much-needed dental cleaning.
Tillys foster parents say that she has been a perfect house guest so far, she is housetrained, well mannered, sweet, and just a joy to have around. She wants to be next to you at all times, loves to be pet, loves belly rubs, and may cry just a little if you stop petting her too soon. Tilly also loves to go on walks with her brother Wolfie.
So, if you happen to be looking for two fun loving, easy going, laid back, super sweet dogs that love everyone they meet, look no further than Wolfie and Tilly.
If you would like more information about Muttilda and Wolfgang please contact their fosters at UYRyorkielovetx@yahoo.com
To date we've spent $1545.7 on Tilly 's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $2600 in donations.

Update 12/2/24: YEA!! Good news. Violets initial bio mentioned possible babies but no babies on board and she has been spay .
She is more than ready to be in a home where there is another very very playful baby. She is the sweetest lovebug and is now ready to be in her own love nest with her own family. She is up to date on all her vaccines and spay. No dental for this little girl since she already has pearly whites.

Initial Bio 11/7/24: Miss Violet recently came to UYR with her 2 brothers, Theo and Nugget who were in an abusive home situation. Violet, who is about 3 years old, didnt have a lot of exposure to humans and the outside world. She is a very very sweet girl who takes time to warm up and then falls in love with you. With strangers it takes time to get to know you and then she barks at you next time she sees you. lol lol.She is starting to relax and now zooms around and plays with the puppy in her foster home. She is having fun being outside and greeting new strangers that walk by her yard with a bark that protects her new home.
We are waiting to see if this little girl may have some babies of her own so we will have to get back to you on that one soon.
Miss Violet will be a wonderful addition to a family who has patience and is willing to help her transition to a loving companion. She would thrive with a family where there are no children so she can slowly get used to her new space.

Meet sweet Winston, a 14 year old, 7 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in Round Rock, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.
THANK YOU TO WINSTON'S RESCUE ANGELS!
Jonathan Huntzinger, Sandy Pagnotta, Dan Clauser, Alex LeBlanc, Don O'Brien, Terrence Wesolek, Barbara Burgess, Angie Cagle
Initial Bio 11/29/24: This precious tiny 14yr old baby came to us just in the nick of time. The owner fell on hard times and reached out for us to take him in. We immediately took him to the vet because he was a Sr that needed vetting done since it had been awhile for a vet appointment. During his exam, his blood work showed his BUN was not even readable. We immediately agreed to a hospital stay so this little baby boy could receive the fluids his body desperately needed. On Thanksgiving Day, he was finally able to go to his foster home, where he is getting some much needed TLC, good food and a lot of love. Winston will need a dental down the road but in the meantime, we take our time to give him some good baths, great food, and get this baby back to his healthy self once again. We know that Winston loves everyone and is a total sweetheart. He is great with dogs and children and is very loving and very curious about cats. He used to love the dog park and playing with balls, If you feel you have the home to allow Winston to have his best life ever, please complete an application below. You may also reach the foster at: julielct@gmail.com. Let's get this cutie his furever!!
To date we've spent $1614.71 on Winston TX 24's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $525 in donations.

Updated Bio 10/09/24
Stevie Nicks is feeling so much better since coming into Rescue after someone threw her away like trash in a Dumpster in April. She has gained a lot of weight and has filled out nicely. She gets eye drops twice daily (and doesnt like it) and hopefully she can see and/or hear a little. Senior dogs like her sleep most of the day. She will let you hold her a few minutes but wants to get down. Stevie is content to sleep right beside Foster moms bed. She wont look at you in the face. Foster Mom heard her bark for the first time a week ago. She touches noses with my other three furbabies. She eats good and seems satisfied to sleep. She has settled in and seems content. She walks around with he her tail held high. Stevie Nicks is a sweet Senior girl who just needs a little special care for the rest of her life. Please email foster mom if you have any questions or fill out an application if your interested in adopting.
Updated bio 8/5/24
Stevie Nicks is a sweet Senior girl who was found dumped in a dumpster. She was in pretty bad shape. She had to have cherry eye surgery, medication for badly infected ears, dental , regular medicated baths and needed to but on weight. She has been in her foster home since April and is now feeling much better with all the special care she has been given.
Stevie is very, very quiet and she sleeps most of the day as most seniors do. Foster mom has to pick her up and carry her outside for her to use the bathroom. Stevie does not like to go outside by herself. It appears she has a little sight. Shes adjusted very well with my other dogs; in fact, she relates very well with Foster Moms 16 year old Yorkie who has limited vision and is very wobbly. Its like they each know they are special needs. Stevie is on eye medicine for long-term (Optimmume-$79 a tube (for a week) administered twice daily). Shes moved her bed close to Foster Moms bed. She has settled in very and seems content. Shes gained a lot of weight and looks good. You can actually see her eyes now. Before, they looked like they were sunk back into her head. Its very quiet here at her Foster Home so we dont know how she would react to kids or cats. If your looking for a special senior quiet dog to love Stevie Nicks is your girl. Please email Foster mom with any questions or fill out an application for her or email foster mom at armescarolyn@yahoo.com.
Initial Bio 4/30/24
Meet Stevie Nicks a sweet Senior girl who was found dumped in a dumpster. She is in pretty bad shape but has seen the Dogtor. Her eyes are in need of ointment twice a day we do think she has some sight but her eyes have been untreated for some time. Her ears are badly infected and full of debris. Dogtor has flushed them out and they will now be treated with drops. Her skin is also infected and now she is receiving medicated baths. Stevie has been adjusting well in her foster home and eating good and she is gaining much needed weight. Due to her previous neglect, she is scared to go outside but foster mom is working on that and helping her with potty training. She gets along well with the other dogs in the home. She sleeps in a tiny dog bed with a blanket and is a quiet little girl. Stay tuned as we continue to get to know her and we will update her progress as she starts feeling better with the medical care and good food and love she is now receiving. If you would like to donate to her care please click on the PayPal Button underneath this bio. Any questions email foster mom.
