| *** we need foster families *** Yorkie911 Rescue Inc., a 501c3 non-profit organization is truly in need of more Foster Families... We currently have 16 dogs in our Foster Care, available for adoption. We have 3 more coming in over the next few days and another 11 dogs coming in by the 11th. WE ARE FULL ~ and it's heartbreaking to think that we won't be able to help a pup in need. *** WE NEED FOSTER FAMILIES *** If you are interested in fostering for Y911R, please go to our website, fill out the application and in the appropriate places, indicate that you want to foster. You are also more than welcome to contact me via PM here on Yorkietalk if you have any questions or concerns! We at Y911R and The rescued Pups Thank You! |

| Me too! These past couple of weeks, the amount of owner surrenders AND owners simply "dumping" their Yorkies (and other small breeds) at the Kill Shelters in our areas is unbelievable...and heart breaking! But without foster homes we can't help |

| Thank you everyone. Right now we have Foster Homes in NY - NJ - CT - PA The hard part about expanding to states further away is Transport. Very difficult to arrange, especially when time in not on our side. We usually don't have any time to spare and are constantly scrambling....When people "dump" their pets, they usually do it so fast the poor dog has no idea what happened... We just took in 2 brothers. One is 11 and they other is 14 ...who does this??? After all these years of loving devotion from these 2 boys they are just "dumped" at a local municipal shelter!!! We just took in a 6 y/o Maltese from NYC KILL Shelter. "Dumped" by his owners bc he has very very bad allergies (paws, ears, face). They just "dumped" him with no care at a very High Kill Shelter!!! ...again...what kind of person does this??? Poor baby needed Vet care and different food, shampoo, etc...NOT A DEATH SENTENCE |

| That is so sad, wonder if these people would do their children that way. I live in FL so I am way too far away. Hope you can get the foster help you need. |

| Bumping up for you . . .I'm in Connecticut, always thought about fostering, but, I'd be too attached to let them go . . . And the second thought I always had was that I'm pretty sure my male would LOVE more playmates but my female rules the roost and she'd most likely not like the competition for mommy playtime.
