| Ready for a new yorkie My female Yorkie , Punki, died three years ago . I had her for almost 15 years . She was with me through the last stages of my wife's death from Alzheimer's. More than any other dog in my life , Punki bonded with me from the day I got her as a puppy. I am ready now to get another Yorkie. I am considering a rescue Yorkie . I live in Asheville,NC most of the year and in Florida for the winter. Any suggestions as to where I should look? |

| Welcome to the forum. Thank you so much for sharing your story. Sounds like Punki was your heart dog and she will always be your little Yorkie Angel. I just know she is smiling as she sees that you are ready to open yourself up to some more Yorkie lovin You could look on Petfinder.com for a rescue. I also came across this website (no experience with it but worth a look): http://yorkie.rescueme.org/NorthCarolina Happy Hunting

| I'm sure Yorkie Haven would love to hear from you. Yorkie Haven Rescue There are members here that have done great things. There is also a rescue section on this site. Although they may be in a different area, sometimes a yorkie train can get your new baby to you through volunteers traveling and meeting. Good Luck and Welcome to YT! |

| Welcome! Your story brought tears to my eyes. I am currently going through the same situation. I lost my Gus 2 1/2 years ago and it was too hard on me. He was my right hand man. I seen this cute little thing at an event of mine and realized I was ready to move on. And that's when I found Leiloni. I was still a bit uneasy about it and I do know it wont be Gus,,, there will NEVER be another Gus. But my fear was that I would not be able to open my heart to another without comparing it to him. But I did figure out that I can and DID open my heart for another. She's only 4 week old and wont be able to come home till next month but my breeder (the same one I got my Gus from) sends me weekly pictures and keeps me informed with any little new thing she dose. Best experience ever! I wish you much luck in your search and once again,,,, welcome!
