My Gage is a rescue, of sorts. He didn't come from a shelter, he came from an individual's home....someone who shouldn't own any pet!! I had told this guy that if he couldn't keep him, I wanted him. He called me 4 months later and said if I wanted him, come get him...free of charge. When I pulled up to the house, there was this adorable 3 pound baby CHAINED
The poor baby shook in my lap the whole way home. It took this little guy almost 6 months to "calm" down. When we first got him, if you so much as looked at him for any length of time, he just stood there shaking. And forget trying to pet him....that made him shake more and back away from you. I don't even want to know what he went through before we got him. All I know is that he is the most absolute sweetest little man
He has turned into a true "lap" baby, always wanting attention and acts like he just can't get enough
Gabby didn't care for him too much when we brought him into the house but they do get along now
Would I get another from rescue? You betcha. These guys deserve so much more than to live their days unwanted. My hat is off to those who work in rescue. You give so much love, time, and attention while they wait for their new forever home. Thanks to Gage, I have even more respect and admiration for the rescue of not just Yorkies, but all breeds!
