She was found as a stray and has various medical issues and has to have her eye removed also. I left my information with them and told them if the rescue falls through for some reason either me personally or another rescue will take her so they are going to call me. Here is what i was told from the rescue i contacted:
"i know how sad that little yorkie girl looks in her picture. Rescuers' hearts break just looking at little dogs like her and there are so many. Our dudley is similar. We keep hoping someone will see them for the good dog they are and give them a home just to be in until the end. I don't want to be hard hearted, but this is the dog that the public wants to avoid. They don't want to see her, know about her, ask for her or take her home. Only a rescue person would take this dog and adopt it. And most of us already have at least one dog just like her. Ask deb - she has crazy bailey. I have one eyed one tooth max. Could you take her in?"
i am in tax season, working minimum 12 hours a day which includes weekends. I just have no time and this dog is going to need a lot of attention and love. I will follow through though to see what happens. The fee is $130 but i don't care about that, i just want to see her taken care of. I hardly got any sleep last night, she is just haunting me. I don't understand why they wouldn't tell me the name of the rescue.

Talked to the president of the rescue, she is calling them. Problem is, she has no fosters right now so don't know if she can take her. She said the money isn't a problem, it's the foster. I tried to foster for this rescue but was turned down because I sometimes watch my 2 1/2 year old grandson. My son and daughter in law also have a yorkie so my grandson has grown up around them but the rescues are very strict. He doesn't live here but of course I love to watch him and have him visit. Anyway... I will keep you updated....

well i did reach someone , but i didn't get much more info. I was told to try again tomorrow or leave a message ( again). They said she was a stray and her temperament is listed as dull (?) neither he or i know what that means but maybe someone else here does ? He also said he was not sure who could adopt her because she was injured and needed medical , it may put a more stringent rule on who can get her , but again he wasn't certain..i will try again tomorrow.
