Do you think Oprah would donate the money needed for surgery, she is a big dog lover. I hear she just lost another one of her dogs.

Default Update ....

Thank you all for your prayers and concern for our Baby. We at least got some really good news ... her blood panel came back showing absolutely nothing out of the norm!! We were elated! We really appreciate and welcome all your ideas/suggestions and are taking everything into consideration. We haven't decided anything except that her forever home will have to be very special. We have already had a couple of people who want her, but noone seems to understand, we aren't just looking to "get her off our hands" ... it just has to be the most perfect home for her. This little sweetheart has already been "passed off" twice in her less than 4 months of life and when she is adopted it has to be forever!

Her beginning is a little sketchy, we don't yet know who the breeder was, but she must have been a real peach!! A lady had gotten a pup from her ... supposed to have been a small one. Turned out the pup grew to be a 9 lb. one with LP! The size wouldn't have mattered but evidently she wanted a really small one because of her physical limitations. Soooooo, this peach of a breeder thought it would be nice to give this little one with the handicap to this lady for FREE!!! What a big hearted breeder!! I think the lady was attached to her but could do nothing to help so she surrendered her to us. So that's where we are ... gotta figure out what we can do for her and it will be what's best for this Baby.

Thank you all for your prayers ... we're certainly going to need them now more than ever!

Smile oh poor thing

I hope you're able to find her a good home. It's really frustrating to hear about all these bad breeders. I have been looking for a yorkie for 2 years and am getting sick and tired of scammers, puppy mills, and bad breeders. People need to understand that puppies shouldn't be so easily disposable just to make a quick bucks.

I wish the best for you. If I were closer, I'd want to give her a good home. I think you should name her Chloe or Serenity

WOW!!! What a touching story! It has truly touched my heart! I will start praying tonight that she will find the perfect place that will be her safe and forever perfect home! I wish I could just hold her and protect her! She was put on this earth for a reason and she just might touch someones heart and change them forever..you never know. Everything happens for a reason!!!! I pray for you that you will make the best decisions for this sweet baby!!! Good luck to you and your baby!

Default Update ... Yorkie determination!!!

We are all totally in love with this sweet baby who has personality overload!! Foster Mom sent us a short video of her and it seems the more she grows, the more inventive she is. We have decided not to risk her life with surgeries that can only be described as possibly 50% successful. She is so healthy otherwise. We are going to speak to and get advice from those who make wheelchairs for these little ones and try to speculate what her future will bring. In the meantime, we do have her listed on our website but I can assure you, the home for her will have to be very special.


We have already received calls from some who are interested in her. I can hardly believe some of them ... i.e., a breeder who is impressed with her coat and was very interested because she is still "intact"! Please ... some of us were born at night but it certainly was not last night!! She is intact because she is still a baby!! I can assure everyone, she won't be going to a forever home until after her spay.

Didn't mean to ramble ... just wanted to give a little update and to ask you to please, please continue to pray for this precious, special little girl.

She is beautiful. Looks like you are in love. LOL. Maybe, you'll end up keeping her yourself. I've seen a few fosters end up being permanent homes I wish the very best for her and for you. It takes a special home to take in these little babies and care for them unti their forever homes are found.

Thank you!! Fortunately, I am in GJ and the baby is with one of our fantastic Foster Mom's near Denver. Trish & I were talking the other day about perhaps making a trip down there ... my reply ... "no way! If I ever touch her, she's mine!" Until we retire, we can't add to our family ... darn! Seriously, if our circumstances were different, we would love to give her a forever home! God bless you for rescueing!!

linsvs ... you are absolutely right, she does deserve a special home where she will be pampered!

I am new here and wondering what LP is? I did a search but didn't get anything to come up. My little yorkie has what I call a "weakness" in her left back leg. She kind of hops or skips when it is cold outside or when we walk for any distance. Just wondering if this is what her leg problem is. Thanks!

What is the possibility of having her fitted for braces instead of the wheelchair? She already moves so well and I wonder if that wouldn't give her a little more freedom than a chair.

Welcome to YT! LP is Luxating Patela and is a genetic thing common in Yorkies. If you do a "search", there is tons of information on here and unfortunately, we have lots of members who have found their babies have this. It usually can be corrected by surgery. Sorry to say, our baby has deformed back legs and not LP. Her little rear feet/legs are turned straight out at a 45 degree angle and we have found no surgery that will offer us more than a 50% chance that it will work.

I hope you will have your baby checked for LP and perhaps it can be a simple repair, if that is what it is. I would love to hear all about her and see pictures of her. Good luck and please update us on how she is doing. There are lots of threads and posts in the "Sick and Injured" section.
