What people really need to be aware of is that the needs of the pup should always come first. We spend time evaluating the pups before we adopt them out. Some yorkies are runners, some stick to you like glue...each one is different with his/her own needs. While one pup may not need a yard to run and play in and would be content with leash walking, another may want to run and play in a backyard.
I was denied a rescue dog because I did not have a fenced in yard. I have also been denied because I already had a another dog (different time). I firmly believe that it is not always the best interest of the dog (animal) at heart at some shelters!
