| I spoke with the shelter. They didn't know too much... She had no clue on her age..anywhere from 2-4 but that was a shot in the dark guess. She is tiny, but quote "not like a teacup" (her words) but not even 5 lbs. 4-4.5 lbs was her estimate. The poor little thing was found as a stray. She is terrified. She was adopted out and the owners had to bring her back. They had a small neutered male, the more she was around him the more she was aggrevated by him and turned 'snippy'. She truly is very frightened. But is a complete sweetheart with all people. Due to her fear they strongly feel she should not be in a home with children or other dogs. Her adoption fee: $200. |

| Sadly, when I called to ask if they would release her to a rescue. She declined and said she would only be released for the $200 and would not even negotiate for a rescue. Hopeuflly, this little one will be able to fall into the hands of a good owner and get a forever home where she can put her bad life thus far behind her. |

| Anyone have Yorkie jail bail money? YHR was given a donation from a YT member the other day for Cosmo, they wouldn't release without the fee being paid.

Sounds like they are not so careful...poor thing was returned once. Shelters like that who don't cooperate and just put a yorkie in someone's hands that come in with the money bother me, but what can you do? I will pray that the next time they place her it will be a good home.

| Poor girl! Hopefully the next person that adopts her is able to help calm her a bit. I would be scared too!

| This is why good shelters release to rescue. So that they are placed properly and don't end up back in the system....they need to be out of the shelter for a minimum of two weeks before you can even come close to evaluating their needs. The goal should be placing the pup in the home best suited to his/her needs...not just any home that wants a pup. It is quite a different story placing a puppy as opposed to an adult that has already been hurt by life and life's bs and stupid people.
