Please pray...

If you cannot handle another pup in your home, I will be more than happy to take little Yoshi in and care for him and find him a perfect furever home.

I would hesitate to leave him with a woman who clearly has not taken really great care of him.

If it is just a matter of getting him until you get home, I am sure we could figure something out. Just please, let's get him out of there.

Nobody knows what Yoshi has gone through in the last five years, but YHR could certainly make sure that his future will be good, and that he will receive the vet care and loving home he needs and deserves.

Mary, You have been blessed to have someone find Yoshi, I know we all prayed for this ending and after 5 years it has been answered.

LadyJane has made a very generous offer to take in Yoshi if you are not able to take him into your home at this time. We all know she will make sure Yoshi receives the best care.

Honestly in my opinion there is no need to rescan him, the odds of another Yorkie having a chip with the number so close to Yoshi's are so high I would dare to say impossible. I am not surprised the scan was not picked up the first time, I have seen it happen when dogs are brought into our rescue (which is why we have a policy of two people scanning the dog).

Please get your dog or let someone from YT get Yoshi and make arrangements for him. No disrespect towards the people who had him previously but Yoshi is YOUR DOG, I am sure you do not want him to have a life of being scared and hiding in corners (or worse outside).

I believe Yoshi was found, after all this time, for a reason. Do what's right for him.

This is amazing... Mary please reach out to someone to help you get Yoshie back or in safe hands

Talked to my boss and he is letting me go home for a few days. I am driving 10 hours Sunday to go get Yoshi. Going to take him to our vet to get a complete checkup and whatever vet attention he needs. I been going crazy the past few days. If things don't work out he will be going to live with my sister and 2 nieces who adores him. But I won't know until I try. Now if only this week will go by fast enough.

Thought i posted this earlier after posting it on fb but i guess it didn't go through on my phone.

Right now my sister and 2 nieces are wanting him if things don't work out with him being back home. But first thing on my list is to get him and take him to the vet. Although there couldn't possible be 2 yorkies with the same chip, but being that it has been almost 5 years I am still in disbeliefs and want to see with my own eyes.

Congratulations! I'm glad things are lining up for you two to be reunited.

i had sent the daughter an email stating i will be returning on Sunday to get Yoshi and her replied has really been bothering me. she states that her mother is upset and has been crying so can she just drop him off at my vet until i get there? i asked if she was referring to boarding him there but she hasn't responded..so i just sent another email telling her i will be calling my vet tomorrow to let them know what is going on and if she could, she can drop him off tomorrow and i will have my vet check Yoshi out and I just made arrangements with my sister who is off tomorrow to either meet them or pick yoshi up at the vet but no response yet. i hope that there is no ill feelings towards me from them because when i first heard he was found and spoke with them i told them that i wasn't going to take him from them but its been bothering me more and more everyday as i am beginning to believe that he has been found after all these years…that first day i was still in a state of shock and not comprehended the situation but with each passing day and it's sinking in i can't just leave him because i spent almost 5 years mourning his lost. maybe i should have held back from emailing her that until i was in town already. makes me feel like something isn't right and they are hiding something from me…why is it that you want to drop him off at the vet now when i won't be back until Sunday evening. so many questions and worries going through my head at the moment….i hope she responds tonight or tomorrow morning so i can let my sister know.

[xxmxaxrxyxx]

and i am trying to do what's right for him. i feel i have let him down the day he was stolen, and after almost 5 years of not knowing and living everyday blaming myself for that day, and then hearing that he has been found. all the emotions, unanswered questions came rushing in. the fear, the guilt, the pain and everything else. when i told the old lady that i wasn't going to take him from her i thought i was doing what's best for him at that moment…but as the news begin to sink in every second i started doubting what i said. don't think that i don't want what's best for him. i been trying to make it work with my current situation with work. and since its been slow i asked him today if i could take off a few days next week to go get Yoshi and he agreed that was best.

Oh how I feel for you. Praying that it really is your little Yoshi after all this time, so long for you to stress and wonder where he is. How hard to be so far away but I am so happy you are driving back to get him. I am sorry about the apparent difficulties with your family and hope that all is well with you, them and Yoshi. I am sure you are beside yourself wondering what happened to him and how he was recently found. I hope that you and Yoshi will soon be reunited and that he is found by the vet to be healthy. If it is Yoshi, what a wonderful ending to your long sad story. Do not worry as I am sure everything will work out for you. As you have seen there are several kind folks here who will help you through this and even take Yoshi if you wish it. Some way Yoshi will be in a loving home and happy again. So good luck to you, drive carefully, and please keep in touch. Praying for all to go well. Hugs.

Oh Mary I know just how you feel. You must be having all sorts of feelings. You don't want to be hurt or hurt someone else. Seems like God has made his message very strong. You need closure for the past five years. Praying for you and this is Yoshi. I tell you I'd go and pick him up in a heart beat for you. So sad and exciting at the same time, Maybe a little fear also that this will not be him...

[Ellie May]

I'm so glad you decided to give it a try.

I'll add another offer to the mix.
I'm off on Wednesday and Thursday. Live in MI (Metro Detroit/Oakland County). I would fly to Kansas and get him (if somebody could bring him to the airport) and bring him back to MI for your nieces or even to you in MS if I could get a flight back to MI the same day. If somebody would like to fund the trip... That way you wouldn't have to miss any work.

Maybe the daughter doesn't want the mom to get anymore attached..
