 Update on the Rescue I adopted
Well it's been one week and the Yorkie I bought from a Rescue home has made a HUGE improvement. When we brought him home last Saturday he layed flat on the floor and would not move. When my Scruffy finally enticed him to walk around and play he could barely run!!! He was scared of everything...very lethargic and was sometimes agressive towards her. I mean it was sooooo sad he didn't even know how to play with a toy! The first night instead of sleeping in his bed he slept on the floor. I mean he is a prime example of how aweful puppymills are. For those of you that didn't read my original thread he was rescued form a PuppyMill. He is 7 months old and has basically been sitting in a crate his entire life. He has no muscles..they are very wobbley. Well, I'm happy to report that he is doing great! Him and Scruffy are the best of friends. They play and play until they both fall asleep from exhaustion. He still gets tired well before she does but he is slowly getting more energy and composure and today he finally learned how to use the Doggy door! I'm so proud of him. I have to say I'm very proud of my little Scruffy because she has been so giving with her toys and has really taken him under her wing....I just wanted to update all of you because I know there are a few people here that wish to own another Yorkie but can't afford it. Well I hope you all at least consider a Rescue. There are lots of Yorkies out there needing your Love and Compassion. He wasn't house broken and I couldn't crate train him since he is used to doing EVERYTHING inside the Crate, but he is almost there...He still has a few mishaps but overall he is doing his thing outside in the yard. It's been only a week and he is wonderful...
The first picture is the one posted in the Rescue site. The next two are the most recent pictures we took of him. I haven't taken him to a groomers yet because he needs his Rabies shots.
