Yorkie Luv Rescue is committed to finding loving, happy homes for every dog in our rescue. From time to time a dog is considered unadoptable for a variety of reasons such as permanent medical conditions, emotional issues and even age. Sometimes this is apparent before we rescue, other times it is not. These dogs still deserve a loving home and good quality of life. In the Forever Ours program we provide ongoing medical care while they spend the remainder of their life with their foster family.
Clara is 2019’s Christmas angel she somehow ended up at the county shelter. She is approx. 16 years old and is very sick. She has mammary tumors, oral nasal fistula, heart murmur and more. She is not healthy enough to have any kind of surgery so she has joined our Forever Ours program. We will keep her comfortable and pay for all her vetting and she will stay with her foster family for the rest of her life.
Dallas is a 10 year old cutie who was surrendered to the rescue in early December 2017. He is a bigger Yorkie at right around 10 pounds. Don’t let his age fool you; he loves toys and going on long daily walks. He would love to be a walking or hiking buddy for someone! Tug is his favorite game, but he would also love for someone to throw toys for him. Dallas needs a quiet and mature home, and he is picky about who he likes. He prefers females, and needs a proper introduction with everyone. He would also prefer to be a top dog in a one animal home, but he might be okay with a small dog that gives him space (He currently tolerates living with a few small females). He is somewhat cat like at times and he definitely likes his space, but he has recently started to cuddle with foster mom. Dallas does have behavior issues, and he can bite. He is on Prozac ($6 at Wal-Mart) and works with a behaviorist, but his Dallas-tude still comes through at times. He might not always be easy, but he loves his people and can be a good boy. He just needs a controlled environment with someone who is as stubborn as he is. Mr. Dallas is clicker and crate trained, and will go to his new home with a clicker and knowledge of how to use it. He is ready and waiting for his forever home!

UPDATE: Poor Mikey has gone blind from his Diabetes he will join our Forever ours program.
Mikey found himself in a ruff situation in June 2017. He was sick and diagnosed with Diabetes at the Emergency Room, Midwestern University Animal Clinic. His elderly owner felt she couldn’t take care of Mikey with diabetes and he would have to be euthanized. A call was made to Yorkie Luv Rescue and he became the white, curly not so Yorkie. Mikey is going on 8 yrs old in June and is a diabetic. He loves to be walked but is happy just to sit next to you on the couch for petting. Mikey lived with a cat in his past home and loves the dogs in his current foster home. If you are interested in adopting Mikey please fill out an adoption application

Vernon’s neurological issues seem to be getting worse he is not in any pain but he falls over alot. He also suffers from anxiety when he leaves the house. He is going to join our Forever Ours program and stay with his foster family where he feels safe.
Vernon is adorable little 10 year old boy who was surrendered to the shelter with his brother. Sadly his brother passed away that night. Vernon was a mess he had to have all his teeth pulled and he had a mass that turned out to be a huge testicle in his tummy we sent that out to be tested. Vernon does have some Nero issues but that doesn’t stop him. He loves to cuddle and be right next to his person. He is being fostered in AZ. If you are interested in adopting Vernon please fill out an adoption application.
Bella is a sassy girl who weighs a little over 7 lbs. She loves attention and loves to cuddle. Treats are like gold to her! She doesn’t get along with other dogs really at all. She’s a little picky about the people she likes (we can’t figure out why she likes or doesn’t like someone). Bella is also protective of her foster mom and will make a great companion to someone who doesn’t have any other dogs! If you are interested in adopting Bella please fill out an adoption application
Roxy is an adorable little girl who is around 2-3 years old. We saved her from the County Shelter where she ended up as a stray. Roxy is very feral and I don’t think she has really been touched by a human. We will be working with her to teach her to trust and love. In the mean time we will slowly get all the knots off of her. She will be ready for adoption once she learns that not all humans are bad.
