Thanks everyone. I checked the local shelter online. Their policy does not allow you to fill out a request form for a puppy or dog. It's first come, first serve. I am not looking for a show quality pet. The only reason I am looking for a female is because I have a porky neutered Schnoodle. He is my husband's BOY! We call him the little king! I know he would to better with a princess. I am in love with the Yorkies!!
