I volunteer for a rescue group. The animals ALWAYS have an adoption fee and usually the younger the dog, the higher the adoption fee is. Also depends on how much they have spent on vet care for said dog.

Also the dog would come to you spayed or neutered if you got from rescue, no rescue I know of or have ver heard of will let an intact dog go to their new home, unless in some cases if a contract was signed that the spay/neuter would be done, but that is rare from what I understand.

Also with a rescue dog, you never really know what you are going to get in terms of health, so even if you were allowed to breed it (which I will reiterate, would NEVER happen with a rescue) would you really want to take that chance, not knowing the medical history or the medical problems that could be in the line. Most rescues come from puppy mills and lord knows they don't care what they breed or what medical issues may be in the lines, all they care about is the almighty buck.

If you are looking for strictly a pet, then I would suggest you go to a rescue, there are many yorkies needing caring, loving forever homes. You could get lucky and pay a small adoption fee and have one that is very healthy and you would be providing a yorkie that needs a loving home just that. Just because they are rescue dogs does not decrease their value or the fact that they too deserve a loving home
