Now I'm on a search for a second Yorkie as Tika needs a companion. I want to take in another rescue and would love to hear any and all leads of Yorkies of any age or sex looking for a forever home.
Tika had spent the first four years of her life with her brother and apparently they were best pals. When the two dogs were seized from the abusive home he was adopted from the humane society right away and separately from her. She must miss him terribly.
During the rare occasions that we leave Tika at home alone, she cries like a baby and makes a lonely howling, screaming sound. It's so loud (and so heartbreaking) that you can hear it from outside our house when the windows are shut. Our neighbours must think our home is a torture chamber for her by hearing the awful crying and howling she makes. LOL
Tika needs a tiny companion around her own size (6 lbs). She loves cats and other small dogs.
I have spent endless hours going through
www.petfinder.com and various rescue groups and have applied to adopt a number of Yorkies. I am always rejected for one of the following reasons:
* I have a 6-year-old daughter
* I live outside the U.S.
* They do not ship their dogs
I am starting to believe that our family's perfect Yorkie rescue will probably be a privately owned dog with owners looking to rehome the dog.
