| Rescuing a Yorkie I am rescuing a female 3 or 4 year old yorkie. She is at a Humane Society near here and she was rescued from a mill. I am picking her up tonight and am so excited to give her a type of home and love that she needs. Poor girl is missing part of her right here but I still think that she is beautiful.MO80.10544313-1-pn.jpg Not sure if I posted this under the right area but since she is a rescue that is why I did it here. |

| Amber, I am so glad you are giving this girl a chance. Is she missing part due to another dog in the mill grabbing her? I just read on another forum that a shizu had her leg ripped off by a pit and the miller did not seak attention for her. She died an hour after being rescued. Your road will be long with this little one as mill dogs often are even afraid of grass under their feet from living their entire life in a cage. If you need help pls. feel free to PM me and I'll help you out with ideas or answers as best I can - also www.puppymillrescue is a good site to book mark. They have a Yahoo group called puppymillrescue. You should join as they have a lot of knowledge and are always willing to help. Best of luck. Elaine |

| Oh and I just noticed I typed her right here and it was supposed to be right ear. Anyway they are not sure what happened with her ear but I will get her all checked out and fixed up. The only other problem she has is that she needs some dental work but I will be more than happy to get that done for her. I just don't understand how people can be so cruel to animals when all that they want is to give and receive love and affection. Thanks for you info on that group and website I will definitely join. And I also want to mention that this humane society was wonderful to work with. They are an hour away but I called and talked to them so they are holding her for me until I can get there, so I went at lunch time and got all kinds of new items for her. I just cannot wait to get her home. |

| Amber first off God Bless you for adopting a mill dog! I'm so happy another found a home. We adopted a couple years ago our yorkie who was an ex mill dog. Each situation is obviously different but if you ever find the need to talk you can PM me. |
