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. Buddy needs an extra special furever home. If you feel like you would be the perfect family for Buddy, please complete an application.

Cole
Texas
Cole TX

Meet Cole, a 10-12 year old, 10 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in McKinney, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO COLE'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Mark H, David and Diana Lavine

Update 3/4/25: March rolled in like a lion here in Texas. St. Patrick's Day is just around the corner so I just have to ask you one question. Are you feeling lucky and ready to meet a four leaf Cole-ver? Yep that's right, I'm talking about me and I'm looking to get lucky and find my furever home. Could it pawsibly be your home, could I maybe sneak into your heart and show you how much I'd love to steal, show all the love I have to share and how much I want to give you my heart?

Since I have been here, I have been such a very good boy. I am almost potty trained. I love to be near my foster mommy and I mean like right near her all the time. So if she leaves the room and I'm on the couch, I will bark until she comes and lets me down as I do not jump off couches or beds. I have been so good when she brings a new foster pup into our home. I am curious about them, but I am also very gentle with them as we get to know each other. I like other dogs that are small like me. I haven't been around any cats but foster mommy says I would probably be curious about them and not chase them. I still do not play with toys, but I do like watching the other doggos playing with toys.

I was such a skinny guy when I first arrived here but now I weigh a very healthy 12.8 pounds. The perfect weight for my handsome body frame. I like treats and I take them very gently from you. I also get so excited for supper time because it's always good eats here and even though I don't have any teeth, I can eat small kibble very easily. One of my favorite treats that foster mom and dad give me are called Pizza Bones. They give all of us a small snibble of the crust and boy do I savor that as it takes me a while to nom nom nom my through a pizza bone. Do you have any pizza bones you'd like to share with me?

My favorite hobby, which would be 24 seven if foster mom would let it happen would be to be super glued to you. I always want to be next to you whether you're doing something in the kitchen or you're in the computer room or on your iPad which Foster mom says that I have bought a couple of items from Amazon (teehee) as she didn't notice when I put it in the cart cuz I bump her elbow wanting her to love on me. I will follow you everywhere and anywhere and be so close to your heels that sometimes I will step on your house slippers. I guess I just want to show you I am right behind all the time to let ya know how much I would love you if you would just give me the chance. Foster mommy says I am just mellow yellow like Jell-O and I don't really want much other than to be next to you and nutritious food of course. I like to sleep in the bed with you and sometimes I like to get under the covers, but not very often.

So if you're looking for a four leaf Cole-ver and you want to be lucky for the rest of your life send your questions to my Foster Mom at

stickhors@gmail.com

We eagerly look forward to hearing from you 💜🐾💜🐾

Cole and UYR Foster Mom, Shirley

Initial Bio 1/26/25: Say hello to Cole, one of the first United Yorkie Rescue rescues of 2025. Cole found himself as a stray drop off at a Fort Worth shelter on Christmas Eve. He had to go through a stray hold to enable his owners to find him. Well, they never showed up. The shelter reached out to UYR and asked if we could help this little guy out. How could we say no to this little gentle soul? Well at the shelter, he was given his heartworm test which was negative plus given all of his required adult vaccinations and had a microchip implanted and he started his heartworm and flea and tick preventative and is in pretty good health for what their guesstimating his age to be.

The shelter is guessing Cole to be about 13 years old. They usually judge this on how the teeth look in their mouth. Sadly, Cole is toothless. That doesn't stop him from soft food and small hard kibble at all. What I did notice when we picked him up on January 8 was that it looked like he had been groomed six weeks to two months ago. His toenails were not overgrown. He had no burrs or stickers in his hair. He just looked so sad and confused.

The first few days here he found two spots where he preferred to hibernate. So we let him be with that until he felt comfortable enough to come out and greet the other dogs. That took about three days. Though he doesn't play with the other dogs, he does love to watch and see what they do especially when they're all outside in the backyard.

I can tell as the days go by that this guy was a family pet. He nuzzles up to you with his nose and pushes your arm to let you know he wants attention and to be petted. He goes to the back door when he wants to go outside and he gets very excited at supper time. He quickly learned where his special feeding spot was. He may have been a one person pup at one time in his life as he quickly attached himself to me.

Give us a couple of more weeks as we get to know each other and Cole I will both report back in and give you our updates.


To date we've spent $1061.58 on Cole TX's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $1000 in donations.

Cosmo
Iowa
Cosmo

Meet Cosmo, 12 mos old, 10lb. 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 4/23/2025: Cosmo is almost 12 mos old today and weighs over 10 lbs. He's scheduled to see the dogtor today for a neutering appointment and eye recheck.

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

Gina

Gina TX

Meet Gina, a precious 8 year old, 9 pound Yorkie girl being fostered in Kyle, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

Initial Bio 4/22/25: Gina came to UYR from a hoarding surrender. She is estimated to be about 8 years old and weighs a little under 10 pounds.

She was so frightened, anxious and dirty when I picked her up. After a bath and some cuddling she started to warm up. At her dogter visit she was diagnosed as underweight, dehydrated, missing 4 teeth and with a heart murmur. The vet seems to think that the heart murmur could likely improve with better health and less stress. She looks so much better after her groom! She is really settling in here and is much more outgoing than when she first arrived. She has her favorite spot on the couch, and has been sleeping in her comfy crate next to my bed. She seems well potty trained, even though she had a couple of accidents her first day here. I take her out frequently. She loves being outside and going for walks. I'm currently teaching her how to fetch, but she will only play for a few minutes at a time. She loves being petted and scratched, and is slowly learning to let me cuddle her. She loves my adult sons and my older grandkids. She will be introduced to my best friends little dog this weekend. She will stay with me until she has gained a couple of pounds, and after she has had her spay and dental. She really is the sweetest girl!

Jenny TX

Meet Jenny, a beautiful little 6 pound little adult Yorkie girl being fostered in McKinney, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO JENNY'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta, Bret Park, David and Diana Lavine

Initial Bio 3/7/25:

Hello to all of our UYR family, friends and the rest of the world. I want to introduce myself to you. My name is Jenny and I am the newest and pawsitively the cutest girl at Stickhorse Ranch. I just got here yesterday on March 6. So we are just beginning to learn about each other.

Foster mom knows these things. I weigh in at 6 pounds. My age is unknown as I was a surrendered stray but I am definitely not a puppy. I am a more mature lady and my Dogter will guesstimate about how old I could be. I have an appointment to see our favorite dogter so he can give me a thorough examination and give me those shots I need, check for a microchip and to see if I have been spayed or not as foster mommy cannot find a spay scar or a tattoo on my tummy because I am a very wriggly girl and won't hold still for her for more than one second.

I have an appointment with the eye dogter specialist also to look at my right eye as we don't know what's going on in that eye and whether I can see out of that eye or not.

In the past 24 hours that I have been here I have shown my foster family that I will go to the door if I have to go outside and do my business. I am a very picky eater, I haven't played with any toys yet, and that I am a very good explorer. I quickly learned the ramps and how to get on top of the couch so I can look out the window like the other pups here.

I can't wait to show my foster family the rest of my personality as I get more comfortable here at my new foster home. So check back with me here in a couple of weeks for a new pupdate.

Woof,

Jenny

Koa
Texas
Koa

Meet Koa, a 10-12 year old, 9 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in McKinney, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO KOA'S RESCUE ANGELS!

David and Diana Lavine, Sandy Pagnotta, Barbara Burgess, Mona Ray, David and Diana Lavine, David and Diana Lavine, David and Diana Lavine

Update 04/25/2025: Koa is certainly living up to his name. He has been such a brave warrior with all the visits we have had with the several veterinarian clinics we have visited in the past 6 weeks. Since his initial biography, he has been to our vet and has gotten all of his immunizations and his microchip. He had a terrible respiratory infection that took us a while to find the right antibiotic that would take care of it. Our doctor finally took a culture from his nose so we knew what we were dealing with after he was not getting any better from the antibiotics that we were using. We finally got him on the big gun antibiotics and his coughing and snotty nose finally cleared up. He has gained the much needed weight that he needed. Hair is finally growing back on his feet, but not on his ears yet.

We decided to go to a more local veterinarian here in Mckinney to get a thyroid test and just to get a second check up for him. His thyroid levels were just fine. That doctor found that he had a terrible ear infection which we took care of. We believe that he can't hear anything. She also mentioned after looking at his x-rays she feels he's much younger than 10-12. She feels like he could be anywhere from 7 to 9 years old because his bones look great.

Koa has become bold and fearless as he gains more confidence in himself and his surroundings. I don't know what kind of life he had before he came to UYR , but I believe it most likely not a great life. This little guy is so head shy and spooks very easily. Even the wind spooks him. I firmly believe that with time he will know and believe that he doesn't need to be frightened of the wind, of other dogs or hoomans.

Koa is not totally house trained. He looks forward to his breakfast and suppers and cleans his bowl. He will also check all the other bowls to make sure they are clean too. This guy is a great car rider after he is securely buckled in. He settles immediately in the backseat. He walks well on a leash and harness. He enjoys being outside in the sunshine and just walking around and using his sniffer. He has in the past two weeks, attempted to play with another foster pup for a few minutes, a couple of times each day.

The next couple of things we need to do for Koa is go visit our fabulous groomer. He needs to get a dental and also neutered. He is finally healthy enough to do all of these things so they will get scheduled in the very near future.

Koa is racking up his medical bills just trying to become a healthy pup. UYR relies on our family, friends and social media for donations. Koa keeps reminding me that it also takes a village for every United Yorkie Rescue pup to become the best pup they can be. It has been raining Yorkies for over a while now. Several shelters reach out to us for help, people who have found strays reach out to us, and sadly there are families that are surrendering their family pets usually because they cannot take care of the medical problems their baby has.

So if you have a few dollars in your pocket that you would like to share with us, that would be pawsitivly pawsome. It's real easy to donate. All you gotta do is hit the PayPal button at the very end of Koa's biography or you could donate through Zelle by going to: uyrtreasurer@yahoo.com.

We thank you for your donations as they are what keeps us rescuers going.

Until next time,

Koas Foster Mom,

Shirley S

Initial Bio 03/02/2025: I'm such a lucky pup. My name is Koa. This is a Hawaiian boy's name. Koa can mean brave, bold, fearless, or warrior. There is a reason why Foster mom gave me this name.

I have been in my foster home about 24 hours and what a whirlwind those 24 hours have been.

My journey starts with a nearby shelter, reaching out to UYR to see if they could help me. I was turned in as a stray and because of several medical reasons, I was given an early release if a rescue would step up to help me. UYR has NEVER said no to any pup especially a pup in my condition that needs their help.

So let me tell you about my first day with UYR. Foster mom and Foster dad picked me up as soon as they could on Saturday, March 1. As soon as Foster mom held me and looked at me she knew I needed immediate emergency help. She said out of all the foster puppies she's helped I was in the worst condition she has ever seen. My eyes were crusted shut, I had lime green snot running out of my nose. I was matted horribly with urine, feces, twigs and leaves in my hair and I smelled horrendous. Because it was a Saturday she immediately took me to VEG (Veterinary Emergency Group). We were quickly escorted into an isolation room and seen within minutes for the initial intake exam. It was decided that I needed to have everything checked out. This would take we were told up 2 to 4 hours. Well, it ended up being six hours and they did bloodwork, x-rays, clipped what they could off my body and clipped my toenails. They checked my eyes because one was crusted shut, and the other one was pretty close to being crusted shut. My teeth also were in the worst condition she has ever seen, my halitosis was very stinky plus and they checked me for many other things. My BAR score was 2/9. They could feel every bone in my body. I was put on antibiotics and given eye drops for my eyes.

I finally got to go to my new home, and foster mom and dad have a game plan for me.

So stay tuned for my pup dates. I know my pictures look terrible right now. So as soon as Foster mom gives me a bath (or many soap ups) and she will try to trim my hair a little bit that is if I let her. We will get the new pictures for you. These pictures were taken by the shelter. They show what terrible condition I was in.

My emergency visit to VEG was over $1100. We all know the saying "It takes a village". I am are asking our UYR village and friends that if you have a few extra dollars to spare, would you please consider donating it to UYR for my health care cost. You are able to Zelle it to uyrtreasurer@yahoo.com or you can use the PayPal link below. Your donations will be so so appreciated.

Thank you,

Ruv.

Koa

The luckiest dog in the DFW area.

Lexi

Lexi is a 3-year-old Yorkie Mix who weighs 15lbs and is being fostered near Palm Coast FL.

THANK YOU TO LEXI'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Cynthia Kirk-Morgan, thank you for Chibi who is the joy of my life!, Mara Tongue; Thank you UYR for without you we would not have Bella!, Wendy Henry, Cheryl Scrupski, Yvette Vangeloff, Nestor Sanchez

Update 4/5/25: Hello everybody, its me Lexi with an update as what I have been doing lately. Well, I am still chasing those lizards in the backyard. There are so many more to chase now that its warm outside. I just love to be outside in my big backyard. Its so much fun. My foster mommy says I have come such a long way and that I am such a good little girlie. You remember that I was abused as a puppy and I have to learn to trust in my person. Well, I have learned to trust everyone in my foster home and I love them all! I sleep in bed with my foster mommy. I like to

snuggle up against her. She doesnt particularly like it but I do and she lets me get my way! When morning comes, I wake her up with a big kiss and gently put my paw on her face to make sure she gets up because I am hungry and I want to eat and go outside to play. I get along very well with the other little doggies in the home. Dont know about kitties as I havent met one yet. I have learned that a persons touch is not going to hurt me but is because they love me.

I am completely housebroken. Love playtime and a big back yard to run and play in. I also like to take walks and go for car rides. I just snuggle down in my car seat and enjoy the ride. Oh! Just so you know, Im really afraid of thunder. If there is a storm I want to be held and cuddled. I can get a little excited sometimes so maybe a home with no young kids is best for me. If you feel you have the pawfect home for me please fill out an adoption application or reach out through my foster mommys eMail and she will answer any questions you may have. Got to go! The lizzards are calling me to play a game of catch me if you can.

Update 3/7/25: Meet Lexi a 3 year old 15lb Morkie (Maltese Yorkie). Lexi is a very sweet little girlie that has a past of being abused as a puppy. Due to her previous abuse she has become very guarded around newcomers. For this reason, she needs an owner that has lots of patience and will give Lexi all the time she needs to settle into a new home. She is a very active young dog and for this reason requires a fenced backyard. Also, Lexi must be the only dog in the home, with no children living in the household and someone that is home most all day to give Lexi allot of time, affection and attention. Lexi has never had a permanent home as she was shuffled from relative to relative due to her previous owner traveling for work so much therefor, she is in need of a place that she can call her home. She is in the process of being leashed trained but still gets very excited when she sees another dog. Lexi loves to run and play in the backyard chasing lizards. She especially loves a game of Tug O War. She is a very sweet girl but will need time and patience to learn to trust her person due to her past abuse. Once she knows she can trust her person or family, you are her world. She also wants to snuggle and sleep up against you to make sure you are safe all night long. Condo living would not be an option for sweet Lexi as she is very protective of herself and her family and will bark if she hears something she feels signals danger.

1/23/25

Lexi is back! She was surrendered by her recent adopter because she wasnt getting along with the other dog in the home. It may be that Lex needs to be the only little pampered princess in the home. She a 3 year old ball of energy that loves to play. Lexi has has a few homes in her short life. She was removed from her first home at just 5 mos old as she was being abused as a small puppy. She was then adopted by a wonderful lady that eventually surrendered due to her feeling that she didnt have the time to commit to Lexi as she is a young energetic dog. Due to this, she has never had a stable place to live for very long and is so deserving of a home to call her forever home. Lexi loves to run and play in a fenced backyard chasing squirrels and lizards. Her ideal home would have a backyard for her to run and exercise in to work off some of her energy. A stay at home person would be ideal as she is young and needs frequent outdoor time. She is a great watch dog and is very loving and protective of her foster family. If you feel your home would be a fit for Lexi please fill out the adoption application to be considered.

01/06/2025

Lexi is a 3 year old 15lb Morkie owner surrender due to her past owner (out of feelings of love for what is best for Lexi) and not having enough time to give to this very active little girlie. According to Lexi's previous owner, she suffered from abuse as as a small puppy by her first owner and was removed from the home but shows no signs of even remembering the incidents and completely trusts and loves everyone she meets. This will be Lexi's third home since her birth and it MUST be her last and FOREVER home! She deserves to have a stable home with nothing but time, attention and lots of love. Since Lexi has been in foster care we have gotten to know Lexi's personality a bit over the past couple months. She loves attention, playtime and cuddles. She is absolutely a little sweetie. she loves to cuddle in bed at your feet where she feels she is protecting you. She does get along with other dogs in the home but can be a bit much for a much smaller dog as she is very active and wants to play hard sometimes and can be intimidating to very small dogs. Her prefered home would have a dog her approximate size and age that loves to play as much as Lexi does. Lexi has discovered lizards and loves to chase them in her outdoor time. She also loves a good game of Tug O' War! A fenced backyard would be awesome to run and play and wear out some of her activeness but is not a deal breaker. She just loves outdoor time. Lexi is also very much a great watch dog and spends her time in the window making sure no one gets near her home or her foster family that doesn't belong there. She gives off a good loud bark if she feels or sees someone getting to close to her backyard. Lexi is housebroken but needs help with leash training as she pulls when walking on a leash. This is an easy correction with a little time and just learning to walk by her person. She is very smart and catches on quickly. She will have her dental prior to her adoption. If you feel your home would be a great fit for this amazing little girlie please fill out the adoption application to be considered.

Luke

Luke is a sweet man estimated to be 13 year old, 8-pound Yorkie being fostered near Dunedin , FL.

THANK YOU TO LUKE'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta

Update 4/17/25: Luke has been on the wellness fast track since his foster mom picked him up from the local shelter where this sweet little boy was surrendered after a good Samaritan found him on the streets, a mess of matting and filth.

This week he has had his well doggie exam, dental and neuter and, after a session with the groomer is now feeling like a brand new dog and has found a new lease on life!

Considering his age and neglect, his health is quite good and he still has 25 of his teeth! Foster Mom says he is one of the sweetest little boys she has ever fostered. He is a snuggler, eats well, sleeps well and his favorite place is near his human or on her lap. He doesn't seem to have been abused, only neglected.

We are still working on his housebreaking (the neuter will help) and he rides well in the car.

All Luke wants and needs is a human to love and to love him back and give him the life he deserves. While we know nothing at all about his background, we know that the future looks bright for this sweet little man. Will you be the person to give him that life?

Initial Bio 4/14/25: Luke came from the local shelter. He was found as a stray. This poor baby is a matted mess and also has some skin issues. He will be going to the vet and groomer this week. Once he has been vetted and groomed we will post new pictures and update you on his health. He seems to be a loving boy.


To date we've spent $1509.56 on Luke's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $25 in donations.

Meet sweet Lulu, a 9 year old, 7 pound little Yorkie girl being fostered in Leander, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO LULU'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta

Pup-date 3/9/25: Hello UYR family! I am happy to report that I have been through my spay and dental surgery and am now ready for my forever home! No more pesky breeding for me. The dogtor told me those days are over and now its time to relax and enjoy life with a wonderful family that just wants to love me. I was a little upset to see that the dogtor took my last three teeth during my dental. She said they were just too bad to save. I guess it had to happen, but I still miss them. I also had a small growth removed from the top of my head which was no big deal, except the technician ruined my gorgeous hairdo. Now I have an odd flat spot on top of my head until my beautiful hair grows back. Foster mom and pop still say I'm just the cutest thing, so I guess I can't be too mad. I have really adjusted to life without breeding. I enjoy being near humans and like the occasional lap or couch time. I am super food motivated and enjoy every meal, snack, and treat that comes my way. I have a habit of taking a nap directly after a meal and I really enjoy a soft comfortable dog bed. I do great on a leash and I do give signals when it's time to do my business. But if you miss the signal, I'll normally find a puppy pad. I do miss sometimes, so I am working on that. I like to give a few barks to let you know it is supper time or if I need to go out. I am easily calmed down with a gentle touch since I do not hear well. I really want to find a forever home where I can be loved and cared for with as much attention as possible. I like other dogs and would enjoy being part of a pack, but would be fine as an only pup, too as long as my new parents have lots of time to spend with me. If you can find it in your heart, please contact my foster parents at uyryorkielovetx@yahoo.com or fill out an application using then link under my profile on the United Yorkie Rescue website (www.uyr.us).

Initial Bio - 2/21/25: Hello UYR friends and family! Meet Lulu, a precious 7.3lb, 9 year old little girl looking for her perfect forever home. Lulu came to UYR about a week ago surrendered from a life of breeding. Although she was a little producer, it is evident she was cared for and loved. She came with some teeth decay and a UTI, but all her blood work appears to be good and she is scheduled for a spay and dental next week. She will likely lose the remaining teeth she has, which is not many. She already has the oh so cute tongue hanging out of her mouth look that just melts your heart for the first look. While we are still learning all there is to know about Lulu, we have noticed that she does like human attention, likes to snuggle next to you on the couch, is somewhat puppy pad and outside potty trained. She had some accidents in the first few days, but we believe that was due to her UTI. The past few days have been nothing but great potties on a pad or outside. She will bark and run around quickly when she needs to out side. She loves to run in the yard and sleeps well through the night. From what we can see so far, she will need to be in an adult home with someone around most of the time. She has plenty of love to give and is excited to start her journey in her new forever home. If you are interested in adopting her, please fill out an application using the link under her bio on the UYR website.

Luna

Luna is a 8-year-old Yorkie who weighs 6lbs and is being fostered near Zephyrhills FL.

THANK YOU TO LUNA'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta

Update 4/5/25: There is so much to share about this little angel. Luna is an active 8-year-old female Teacup Yorkie who weighs only 6.1 pounds and is as sweet and adorable as can be. Luna went to the veterinarian last week. She has a skin condition and has lost a lot of her hair. For this reason Luna is not quite ready for her Forever home. We need to get all of her skin issues figured out first. But we are working on getting her all fixed up! Luna is ALLERGIC TO EVERYTHING to do with chicken, food, treats, medication, etc. So you must be very careful not to feed her anything chicken. Foster mom is having to bathe me every few days in a special medicated shampoo to help my skin. Although she may be small she does have the spunky personality typical of a Yorkie. Luna is potty trained, she will sniff at the door when she needs to go out, and if she feels shes being ignored she will let you know. She has no problem in communicating her feelings through her barks, whether she feels its time to eat, play, or when shes wanting off the couch. It may take some time to understand her barks and to recognize her needs but shes worth it. She will also bark at the tv if theres a dog on the screen. Luna enjoys being with her foster family, whether it's sitting on the couch, snuggling in bed, going for walks, or taking car rides. She will follow you wherever you go. She is friendly and gets along well with cats and dogs and because of her small stature children 10 years and older will be best for her.

03/28/2025: Luna just arrived. Updated bio coming soon.

Meet Maverick, an adorable 7 year old (est), 10 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in Georgetown, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO MAVERICK'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta

Initial Bio 3/25/25: Hello World! I am Maverick and I am soooooo happy to be part of the UYR fosters looking for my furever family! I was very scared in the shelter and didn't know if I would make it out -- I was on the list to be euthanized!!!! Foster Mom and UYR said oh no, we need to take that boy and find him a new family -- so here I am ready to find you and give you all the love and friendship you'll ever need.

I've already been to the dogter, had all my shots, and had my teeth cleaned. The dogter did give Foster Mom some bad news, I have a heart murmur. Not bad enough to need medicine yet, but definitely my new family needs to know so they can let my new dogter watch it carefully and get me on medicine when it's time. I guess a heart murmur means that I'm special and have lots of room for extra love.

I love to go for walks every day. I'm not the kind of guy that wants to be in your lap all the time, but I do want to be in the same room with you in my own chair next to yours. I promise to always stay by your side and only bark when there's a reason, like someone at the door or a squirrel I need to go get.

Please fill out my application and come get me, I'm waiting for you. Also, while you're here, can you please donate to UYR to keep all of us off the euthanize list? It's not the kind of list we want to be on.....

THANK YOU TO ROCKY'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Wendy Henry, Sandy Pagnotta, Dan Clauser, Don O'Brien, Ellen Chokreff, Elba Short, Barbara Burgess, Lauren Satterfield

Updated Bio 4/23/25

Happy Birthday to Rocky!! He is now 5 years young! Rocky has been doing a food trial for his skin allergies for one month now. He had a recheck with the doggie dermatologist and he has improved over all. Rocky’s hair is growing back and there is no sign of infection in his paws or ears. He is not itchy. He is weaning to a lower dose of apoquel and we are starting Benadryl. He is continuing his special baths with a medicated shampoo twice weekly and has a mousse for problem areas as needed. He is on a rabbit and potato diet at this time. He will be on the food trial for another 4-8 weeks. At the end of the 4 weeks this time, we will see if it has worked and his skin issues stay well. If they do not then he will have testing for environmental allergies. Once all is under control with Rocky he can be adopted. The adopter must understand Rocky’s needs and be willing to continue his special care so he doesn’t get back in an itchy condition and missing hair. Rocky is a smart dog who is crate trained and for the most part house trained. He rides super good in a car and walks good on a leash. He listens to his person and wants to be with his person. Rocky would do great as an only dog and he gets along well with the other dogs in foster moms home. He does like to be center of attention. Rocky also prefers sleeping with his person. If your interested in Rocky please fill out an application or email foster mom with any questions.

Updated bio 2/5/25

Meet Rocky! He has just came into rescue and was surrendered by his owner who wasnt able to give him the special care he needs. Rocky is suffering from a skin allergy that is causing itching and hair loss. He saw the Dogtor today and this is what was discovered. His ears have a severe yeast infection. The Dogtor cleaned both ears thoroughly and he has an ointment to put in twice daily for 14 days to help them heal. He also will be taking an oral medication for the yeast infection and an antibiotic for the skin infection for 14 days. He will have a dental when he has his recheck with the Dogtor for his ears. Rocky is being referred to a Dermatologist Specialist so we can learn the cause of his skin allergies. Rocky is a smart dog and well behaved. He takes his baths and grooming like a champ. Right now he has to bath in a special shampoo for his skin every 4 days. He gets along with other dogs and loves to sleep with Foster mom. He is a young dog and deserves a family of his own to live his best life. He is smart and playful and walks well on a leash and rides well in a car. If your interested in Rocky please fill out an application or email foster mom at mandymsmith1@yahoo.com

Sawyer

Sawyer is a sweet boy. He is a 6 month old, 15-pound Yorkipoo being fostered near Clarksville, TN.

THANK YOU TO SAWYER'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta, Wendy Fuhrmaneck, Kathy Lowrey, Cindy McKimm, Sandy Pagnotta, Wendy Fuhrmaneck, Veronica Gonzales, DeAnn Deutsch, Bret Park, Stephanie Slack, Debra Frare, Cheryl Scrupski, Wendy Henry, Yvette Vangeloff, John Pfeiffer

Update 4/14/25 Poor Sawyer he has had terrible luck lately. First he pulled out is sutures from his neuter which caused him to have another surgery to repair his incision and 14 more days of crate rest. He finally gets healed up and is ready for his forever home. But now that has changed he has injured his left back leg and will be having surgery tomorrow to repair. The specialist said he has a tibial tuberosity avulsion and as that wasn't enough he also has a proximal tibial growth plate fracture. Who knew apparently this is a common issue with puppies. But can be repaired and he will be good as new. Unfortunately it will take at least 6 weeks for this to heal properly after surgery. Therefore Sawyer will not be available for adoption until he his completely healed. If you would like to contribute to his surgery it would be greatly appreciated. Prayers are always welcome. If you don't mind say a few for foster mom too. Sawyer is all puppy and not going to be happy about 6 more weeks of strict crate rest.

Update 4/5/25 Sawyer is ready for his forever home. All healed up from his neuter and ready for fun. Sawyer is a very active fellow. He loves to explore outside and tries to get into mischief if he thinks your not watching. He does good with small children and other dogs his size. We have not tested larger dogs or cats. He would be great for a active family and kids who want to play with him. He will follow you everywhere he gets very excited when you come home. If you think Sawyer might be a good fit for your home please complete an application. You cant go wrong with this playful puppy.

Updated Bio 3/24/25

Sawyer went to the veterinarian last week to get the last of his puppy shots and his neuter. He did great with the surgery, however over the last several days he has not been a very good patient. Foster Mom has tried several methods to keep him from messing with is incisions without much success. Today he had to go back to the veterinarian because he has pulled out some of his staples. He will go back in the morning to have this repaired. As soon as he his healed he will be ready for his furever home. Sawyer is a playful puppy. He does good with small children and other dogs his size. We have not tested larger dogs or cats. His fascination with shoes has improved. He leaves them alone for the most part now. Potty training is in process... He loves to go outside and explore the yard. But he mostly wants to be close by your side waiting for his belly rubs and treats. If you think Sawyer might be a good fit for your home please complete an application. You cant go wrong with this playful puppy.

Update Bio 2/28/25:

Sawyer is a growing boy. He is a fluffy ball of energy. He went this week for his 2nd round of puppy shots and was retested for worms. I can happily tell you he is now worm free! We have scheduled is last round of puppy shots for March 19th. He will also be neutered on this day. He will need a short amount of recovery time. As long as he has no complications, he will be ready for is forever home the following week . Sawyer loves to play. He loves snuggle time. He is a typical puppy so shoes are always at risk if left in is reach. He loves the shred toilet paper and pee pads too. Just like any typical puppy if left alone and free to run he will get into mischief. He is working on potty training. He loves to go outside and run. If you would be interested in adopting Sawyer please complete an application.

Updated Bio 1/31/25

Sawyer is the cutest little boy full of energy and ready to play. Sawyer went to the Vet on Tuesday to get his first round of puppy shots we also did bloodwork which came back today. Overall his bloodwork is good. He is a little anemic but vet says that probably due to the flea infestation. Now that we have that cleared up he expects to see that improve quickly as he grows. They did discover tape worms at his vet appointment so we have been treating for that these last 3 days. He still needs to finish his puppy shots, get neutered, and follow up to make sure we have the tape worms cleared up before he will be ready for adoption.

Initial bio 01/27/2025

Sawyer just arrived he is the sweetest boy. Upon arrival we noticed he was infested with fleas. Foster mom gave him a bath in dawn along with Capstar to kill the fleas. He will go to the dogtor tomorrow to start his first round of shots. He will also be getting neutered soon. Once all of his vaccines, neuter & recovery are complete he will be ready for adoption. Please be patient as we get him up-to-date and ready to go. He loves to cuddle.

Ready for take off
Florida
Sophie

Sophie is a 11 year old Yorkie girl who weighs 5 pounds and is being fostered near Stuart ,FL.

THANK YOU TO SOPHIE'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Bret Park, Barbara Burgess, Katerina Tully, Heather Manley, Ellen Chokreff, Elba Short, Angie Cagle, Nestor Sanchez, Wendy Fuhrmaneck, Mary Corbin, Sandy Pagnottam Angie Cagle

4/14: UPDATE: Sophie had her stitches removed from the mammary gland tumor surgery and has healed quite nicely. Thankfully, the two tumors were negative for cancer. She has gotten used to eating with 10 less teeth and we're sure she feels better without mouth pain. The eye specialist is having us keep watch on her right eye as it seems to bother her when administering twice daily drops for dry eye, a condition she will have life-long.

3/15/25 UPDATE: Sophie had a dental cleaning with extractions on Friday. She also had two small mammary gland tumors removed. These tumors are somewhat common and have a greater chance of forming in older females who are not spayed or who are spayed later in life. Although Sophie had no idea what she was in for, she was a trooper and did very well under anesthesia. She is quiet and recovering nicely at home. Sophie continues to be a sweet girl, quiet most of the time, and easy going. Her potty habits have improved and she has lost about 6 ounces of weight.

We would like to place Sophie with a family who is home more often than not. Since she gets along well with other small dogs, a home with another dog would be a plus. Also, she seems to have a definite preference for men! Sophie favors her foster dad and lights up whenever he is home. Its quite adorable!

Thank you to the Bressmans at All Creatures Animal Hospital for taking such good care of Sophie. And a big thank you to all who have donated towards her medical costs. We appreciate it so much!

We will update again when her labs come back and her stitches are removed in about two weeks.

2/9/25: This little nugget arrived by special air delivery on a 4-seater Cessna plane! The pilot, Collin, with Pilots N Paws took great care of her, even letting her lay down on his lap during the flight. He said she was the best traveler and wore ear protection without a fuss. She looked so cute wearing the headphones. A big thank you to Pilots N Paws!!

Sophie is a SWEET, 11-year-old Yorkie, weighing just a bit over 5 pounds. She was a

much- loved member of her family who loved her enough to realize she needed a new

family, one who could provide her with more time and attention. Sophie's original owner passed away and family members stepped up to take care of her. She has not been

vetted yet since her little feet just touched the ground, but we wanted to introduce you to her right way. So far, she appears to be healthy, but she does need to lose some weight. We will have our vet tell us how much, but we think she needs to weigh about 4 pounds. So far, we know she is spayed and up to date on her rabies vaccination. She loves to go for walks and be with her humans, preferably on a lap! We are told she is housebroken and so far so good at her foster moms house. She is being fostered with other small Yorkies close to her size and she is very friendly

with them, wagging her tail and engaging in mutual sniffing. We will keep you all posted as we learn more about this adorable sweetheart.

02/08/2025 Initial Bio: Sophie just flew into Stuart to meet her new Foster mom. She will update bio soon as she get to know this precious little girl.


To date we've spent $2878.31 on Sophie's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $720 in donations.

Meet Wrangler, a 14-15 year old, 4 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in Georgetown, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO WRANGLER'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta, David and Diana Lavine

Initial Bio 3/4/25: Hello everyone, my name's Wrangler and I'm so happy to be part of the UYR Family! When I came to be with my foster Mom I was not feeling well at all. I just felt hungry all the time -- my beautiful fur coat had pretty much all fallen out and my skin was just plain translucent. I am an older gentleman you see, but I really don't need to be sick from not eating well.

All the good folks from my UYR Family have changed that for me! I'm now eating good food on a regular schedule, I've been to the dogter and they took out all but one of my toofers and I'm neutered -- (not sure what that means but I do feel better), and I have all my shots!

Now I'm just waiting for that right furever person to come and adopt me. I'll bring you more love and joy than you can ever imagine!

Hugs & Kisses Furever Together -- Wrangler

Zeus TX

Meet Zeus, a 15 pound, 15 year old Yorkie boy being fostered in Frisco, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO ZEUS' RESCUE ANGELS!

Mark H, David and Diana Lavine

Update 4/10/25: Zeus has hopped into hearts with his loving nature and sweet personality. This snuggle bug loves to cuddled, be petted and would happily spend the whole day curled up next to his favorite humans. When hes not lounging in my lap, hes investigating the back yard. He may be a senior, but dont let that fool youthis little guy keeps up with his 3 year old foster brother. He is great with other dogs and loves the nightly pack walk around the neighborhood.

Zeus had an episode of pancreatitis. This is quite common when yorkies are fed something outside of their wheelhouse. This was corrected and he's thriving with his food and love.

He rarely barks, preferring instead to communicate with those expressive eyes and a soft presence that brings instant calm.

Looking for a quiet, loving companion who just wants to be near you? Zeus might just be your perfect match!

Update 3/2/25: We have been fostering Zeus for almost 2 months now and are convinced he will make the perfect companion for some lucky family. Zeus says he is the most lucky charm youll ever find!

This senior pup acts younger than 15. When he goes on walks, he trots the whole way leading the pack. He stands on his hind legs and jumps to meet his foster human brother after school each day. He is so smart he figured out the puzzle feeder in about 5 minutes. He loves when it has apple pieces hidden in it. But, his favorite thing is to snuggle with his humans. He is a snuggle bug. If you are looking for a dog to cuddle with you while you read a book or snuggle up to you when sleeping, Zeus is your pup!

This adorable senior yorkie is ready to trade the rainbow for his forever home. Are you ready to take a chance on him?

Please email me for more pictures of this boy living his best life.

Update 2/11/15: Zeus is hoping to make a love connection this Valentines Day! Are you looking for a furry friend to share your heart with this Valentines Day? Meet Zeus, the sweetest 15 year old Yorkie youll ever meet. With a heart full of love Zeus is ready to find a forever home where theyll be showered with affection.

Why youll love Zeus:

Loves walks and car rides.

Ready to meet your new best friend? Contact me!

Update 1/20/25: Today Zeus went back to the vet for his dental cleaning. Everything went well and he is home running around with his foster brother. His lab work came back earlier this week indicating he had a slight thyroid condition. We started him on meds for that. He has taken them without any problem.

We have learned that Zeus loves to go on walks. He does excellent on the leash. He is getting a daily walk now (weather permitting).He is SO excited when he sees us getting the harness and leash out. He is no longer wearing a belly band at night and has not had any accidents in the house in the past several days.

He is such a good boy in every way. If you are looking for a quiet, gentle soul who loves walks, rides in the car and lap time, then please submit an application. This dreamy pup deserves his own forever family!

Update 1/14/25: This senior boy is a bundle of love! I am in love with those beautiful big brown eyes and his gentle disposition. He is the sweetest!

He has done well acclimating to his foster family. He likes to be with his humans and has easily made friends with our dogs. He is usually curled up on his doggie bed next to humans, but when they move, he follows! He is interested in everything they are doing. His foster dad works from home, so he gets let outside often. When he goes outside, he does his business. He has been wearing a belly band overnight as a precaution.

He saw the vet today and did AMAZING! He was so relaxed on the car ride and at the clinic. Vet said his heart and lungs are great, and has good mobility. He does have hearing loss and partial vision loss, but overall, the vet said he looked good. We are waiting for his lab results and have scheduled his dental for next week.

A perfect home for Zeus would be with humans who are home most of the day who would love a bundle of love to keep them company. He is calm, rarely barks and gently whimpers to let you know when he needs something. If you are looking for the perfect lap dog with gorgeous eyes then Zeus might be perfect for you.

Initial Bio 1/10/25: Meet Zeus, a 15 year old Yorkie male. He came into the rescue this week after his previous owner made the difficult and unselfish decision to surrender him for a better life. He is a calm, sweet pup who loves to look out the window and watch the world go by. His gentle disposition will immediately capture your heart. He shyly ask to be petted, quietly observing everything. He is fine with my dogs, a 2 year old yorkie and 4 year old retriever. He does seem to have some hearing loss. He did great in the car ride home. I havent yet evaluated his potty situation, but will monitor him over the next few days. He will be vetted this coming week. Check back for updated on this special pup looking for his forever family.
