Anyone looking to adopt a dog... - YorkieTalk.com Forums

The Lee County/Tupelo, Ms Human Society has a lot that they just rescued from a puppy mill here in MS. I don't know if they have yorkies or not but they have a lot of different breeds coming in. Right now they're still undergoing treatment and such so it could still be a while before they're up for adoption.

Thanks for letting us know that.

You never know, it might help at least one of those poor dogs get adopted into a great forever home.

My in-laws live in Tupelo and that is where Xavier was purchased!

His breeder had a different name though? But he was bought from a flea market. (this was prior to learning about all the BYB's and puppymills.) I just tried to call the shelter to learn more about the dogs available for adoption; I think we may try to rescue an English Bulldog. My husband is actually going to GA for 3 weeks and his parents are going to be visiting him, so maybe something could be arranged. Thanks for posting this!
