Many rescue groups will not adopt to another state because they want to do home visits to make sure everything is true that was on the application. Most Yorkie rescue's first think of the dog and the people second and they try their hardess to make a perfect match. It is to cruel to the dog to keep placing them in different homes. These little ones have already been dealt a cruel blow from their 1st home.
Having said this you will need to work with each individual group if there is a dog that you are interested in. There are always exceptions to the rules and that will be up to the rescue group to determine.
In our rescue we would never adopt out of state because we always had a return policy. If it didn't work out we would take the dog back. We have invested to much love and money to have the little ones passed on to another home that might not be good for the dog. We also wanted to do home visits to make sure the people were on the up and up.
