I have never actually tried to rescue a Yorkie but three things that really bother me about most rescues are:

1. You can't adopt a dog because you don't have a fenced in yard (I always supervise my dog outside so what is wrong with a leash?)

2. I was looking at an adoption site and after the original home check they said that the first year is a probationary period and you are subject to more home checks throughout the year (I can understand one home check and a probationary period but more than one home check is really excessive).

3. Some rescues think that you are not a responsible pet owner because you have an animal that is not spayed or neutered. That is an opinion only. Maybe there is a reason for not altering your pet. I do think that talking to the person's vet is a good indication of how they treat their pets though.

Congratulations on starting this.
