Rescue From Tx Needing New Home - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Lopsi · 04-25-2007, 10:03 PM

Hey guys. I rescued a dog tonight - I'm not sure that she's pure yorkie as they said she was, but she was in dire need of a home. I couldn't leave her behind, but I can't really keep her either. Here's my original thread about her:
Not real sure what to do here...

I'm asking a rehoming fee to make sure she goes somewhere that can take extra good care of her and give her LOTS of TLC... and to cover what I've spent on her.

Please let me know if anyone's interested. I'm not going to ship her, she's been through enough hell, but I'm willing to meet someone.

Awww That was so sweet of you to take her in. I wish I lived closer, Id sure take her. Hope you find a forever loving home for her. Good Luck.Do you have any pictures?

Lopsi · 04-25-2007, 10:13 PM

I haven't taken any yet, and I've already got her settled for the night. I'll try to post some tomorrow. She's shaved all over, and very fat (I'm sure from litter after litter). She has a little hair on the tip of her tail. I think she's silver and tan - not near as golden as Bogey, and maybe even a creamier color. I'll try to get pics tomorrow.

I hope you are able to find her a home as well. If she has been bred that much, she may well be a purebred. Hopefully, someone will see beyond her undocked tail to love her.

What part of Texas are you in? I, too, rescued a dog a few weeks ago and had to have her put to sleep 48 hours later. Give me more information about where you are, if you've had her vetted, etc.

I just brought her home late last night. I haven't done anything with her yet.
Also, I'm in DFW.

I just read the previous post about this little baby, and it was so sad. I am so happy you saved this little girl. How is she doing this morning? Could you please post some pics of her? Also, how big is she and how is she with the other dogs?

pepe mint · 04-26-2007, 07:01 AM

Hey girl - she's doing great this morning

And she does wonderful with Pixie and Bogey.
Now that we're up and moving this morning, I convinced her to get out of the cage... she ran around the apartment gathering up ALL the bones and putting them in the cage. There's about 12 bones in there now. They said she's about 8 lbs... which is pretty close. Bogey is 7 and she's about the same as him. Posting pictures shortly!

I'd love to see pictures of this little angel. You did such a wonderful thing.

Lopsi · 04-26-2007, 07:35 AM

Ok, here's pictures of the precious little girl. Like I said, she's shaved all over and looks... well... hideous... but I bet she's a lot prettier once someone lets her fur grow back even a little. She's also fat from the babies and totally oblivious to any name. If you took her, you could name her whatever you wanted and teach it to her. She is also very, very mellow. I heard her bark one time when Pixie was having a fit - she looked at me "Ruff!" and it was more like a "make her shut up, will ya?" But she bounces around and wants to play, too. She reminds me of a puppy in a grown dog's body.

I made an appointment for 1pm this afternoon with my groomer to clean her ears, trim her nails, etc. I'll take more pics after that if she's not taken yet - I bet she looks a lot better after my groomer gets ahold of her

She really needs to find a home ASAP - we're over the limit on dogs in the apartment. I was REALLY looking for a nice little dog for my daughter to put a deposit on and pick up when we move home in a few weeks... Still looking for that.

I just don't think this dog is right for my daughter. She's been through enough - she doesn't need to be tortured by a 6 year old now

I followed your story - I haven't been posting much because I'm in the middle of finals, but I had read about poor little Frankie. I think you did a noble thing for her. If you are interested in trying again with this baby, I'd be happy to meet you somewhere.

MarilynMonroe · 04-26-2007, 07:44 AM

her sweet little face. im so f**king angry right now at the people who use animals as profit, shes a being a living being.

Lopsi · 04-26-2007, 07:46 AM

I didn't mention, as of this afternoon, I'm going to have spent about $150 on her (getting her & grooming her). If a good home wants her today, that's her fee. I'm not looking to make a profit or anything, just want to make sure she gets into a good home and get some of my expenses back in the process.
If I still have her tomorrow, I'm probably going to see about getting her in to my vet - raising her cost. Let me know if you want her before that. She needs a checkup and probably shots. She doesn't really show any signs of major problems though.

Oh she's a sweet heart!!!
Thank you for saving her!!!!!!!
