She was with us for 13 years before she got brain tumors and had to be put down.

I am in the process of adopting a rescue Yorkie. She was given up to a rescue because she couldn't be used for breeding. She has luxating patellas.

She's about 4.5 lbs and very sweet and cute. My daughter's Chihuahua was found as a 3 lb stray on the streets. She was skin and bones when we met her at the animal shelter, but she has been such a great dog. She's now around 4 lbs.

There are two Yorkies in the city that I just moved from so Yorkies do become available in shelters every few months.The rescue I'm working with has another Yorkie that just came in. I haven't asked about it yet, but I will once we finish the adoption process for the one we have now. She's going to be called, Sparrow.
