The New Buffalo Animal Hospital in New Buffalo, Michigan is temporarily caring for 21 Yorkies that need new homes. The breeder/owner fell and broke her hip and is now in a nursing home and unable to care for them. They are trying to find loving new homes for all of them. She was a client at this clinic so they are familiar with the dogs. This wonderful vet and his caring staff are working really hard to asses each dog's needs and giving them wonderful loving care pro bono. Those that can't find new homes will go to a Yorkie rescue.

There are 11 males and 10 females varing in age from 1 year to 15 years. They are all in the process of being groomed, vet checked and spayed/neutered. Two of the females are pregnant. They were all home raised. They are asking for a donation of $100 per dog to help pay for some of the living expenses left behind by the owner such as gas and electric. Some of the Yorkies have already been spoken for.

I found out about this from my sister who is director of a shelter in the area and she called me knowing I might be able to get the word out.

Serious inquiries should contact Kathy Sorenson at the clinic. The phone number is 1-269-469-5400. New Buffalo is near the Indiana/Michigan state line on the shores of Lake Michigan.
