As far as making connections with pet related communities, vets etc I have not done all that yet because I just got started but i will. Well I just hope she gets a great home no matter who takes her.

I know it is tough but the one thing you have to repeat over and over to yourself is "I can't save them all". If you are going to be effective in rescue you will have to make some hard decisions...decisions that are not always popular....it is not about "we love these yorkies" better than anyone else but what can I do to make a difference in this world for these dogs. You have to determine what works for you and how you can make a difference. You have to decide if you are going to put the dog over human feelings first and live with your decisions. It is tough but so rewarding if you can do it. The first time you adopt one of your pups out that you saved, you will fall apart but if you keep to many of them then you are done saving anymore. You will shed many tears but it will also bring you great joy.
Start working on a flyer you can send to all the pet related organizations so they are aware you are in the area...sad to say but you could easily be over run with turn in's.
You can't worry about the one in rescue...it won't help you and it won't help your determination to rescue.
P.S. Going into rescue should not be a way to get a Yorkie...it should be a calling.
