| Missing my "Buddy" Hi My name is Kellie. One of my best friends was an Army Doctor. He has recently finished his time in the Army and has moved back home to get married and start his own practice. Yippee for him, However; sad for me. I not only miss my friend, I miss my "Buddy" which was his Yorkie that stayed with me as much as he did at home. Anyway I am looking for a yorkie to adopt or purchase for a small fee. I realize that these loving creatures make fortunes for people, but I dont have a fortune to spend. You see I have never bought a dog or cat. I normally rescue from shelters. My mixed breed 5 yr old Duke is a rescue and he misses Buddy too. I have looked and searched into rescues and shelters as well and they too want hundreds for Yorkies. Anyone out there with any suggestions. Thank you so much for your time. Sincerely, Kellie Not hundred or so, Hundreds. I am very aware of vet bills as I have just spent over $3000.00 in vet bills for my mixed breed Duke. He actually is quite famous! He has been in paper, on news, internet and fliers everywhere. He was stolen by a cop. He went missing 2 days before my husband deployed and was gone for 8 months. On the day my husband returned home for his 2 week R&R, we got a call that Duke had been found. He returned home to us with injuries that required several surgeries. He is doing wonderfully now and is healing well. Hopefully we will not have to amputate. I am just hoping to find someone that has a yorkie that needs a wonderful, caring, loving, christian home. Again We as well as Duke just really miss our friend. Hoping to add an addition to our family. Thank you for your reply. I think that maybe my first post was confusing. I have fostered and rescued, searched and found many loving homes for many furry friends. I have paid for vet bills without reimbursement or donations. I have transported them as well. I have never owned a Yorkie or fostered one if you will. I was Buddy's aunt if you will. Well more like his Mom. Never new a thing about the breed before, as bigger dogs always stole my heart. However with taking care of Buddy, I have learned much about Yorkie's, their behavior and their medical needs. I do prefer a female as Duke gets along better with girls. Again...Looking for friend...Missing my Buddy!! I have copied and pasted these messages from another post of mine. |

| I just found a female to adopt on Craigslist for $300. She is papered, microchipped, utd on shots and HOUSEBROKEN. I am in the process of getting her today or in the next few days. Keep looking and don't give up. Even if the one that the other poster told you about isn't the right one, check every day. God will bring you together!!
