I tried to get a rescue Yorkie as well. They wouldn't let me have one for a few reasons. 1) we don't have a fenced in yard, 2) I have an8 year old dd. 3) I have a German Sheperd.
I ended buying a buppy from a local breeder and the yard isn't an issue because he won't leave my side. My dd isn't an issue. She is just as protective with him as I am and now Diesel and the Shepherd are buddies. Go figure.. I believe this is the reason so many are still in rescues.It is a really shame if you ask me. Sometimes I wonder if they aren't out to make a quick buck as well as some breedes. |
