Lost in 49001 zip code

Pet ID L31200

I have no idea if any of those names of lost female Yorkies will help but I can't sleep and thought I could at least try to do something productive.

I'm sorry I don't know more about MI geography. I live in TN.

I didn't feel comfortable in posting private info about the owners but I hope by giving you the site and the names of the Yorkies they have missing, you might at least have a starting point. When possible, I also included where they were lost and the date lost.

Good luck to you in whatever you decide.

I just can't clear my head of the thought that maybe someone is searching high and low for this Yorkie. Don't put much stock in my feeling though...I'm not known for my intuition...LOL

Thank you for the comfort you gave this Yorkie.

Toy - thank you for all your efforts! Well, I am pretty intuitive & my first thought was someone is looking for her! That's why I suggested she be chipped. I am all for helping rescues find a home & for yorkie trains -- but how heartbreaking would it be to move her across the country, if someone is looking for her.

shelbypickles · 03-17-2009, 10:32 PM

My sister might be interested. She is in Flushing. I will call her tonight and see. Please let me know if you want a re-home fee so i can discuss it with her.

Please e-mail us...from her appearence we are not going to pursue her owners or post her whereabouts.......269-762-8075 mike ann wolf

Please check for her owners as these little babies are good escape artists going by this site.I would hate it if my baby got out and then got lost, it really might not be the owners fault.I find it hard to believe that someone would deliberately let one go. If my baby got lost I would be glad she found you. Keep us informed.

monarchmom · 03-18-2009, 02:46 AM

I am glad she found you BUT what if someone found Yoshi & rehomed across the country! JMO but I think you have to try & find the owners. They could be absolutely heart broken over their lost girl! My baby can play in a mudpuddle & look like a hot mess in 10 minutes (she is such a tomboy LOL) Please don't rehome her without checking around in your area!

My husband probably would have said the same thing, but if he saw the puppy, he would say yes!

That's what I was thinking. So many members of yorkietalk have lost their pet, you never know what the circumstances were. It is very kind and generous of you to do the right thing.

Rosiegirl · 03-18-2009, 03:58 AM

I also live in michigan, my first thought was that I could make room for her in my home, but then I put myself into the shoes of someone who had lost their dog and I believe you should try to find an owner first. I know how badly my heart would ache if any of our dogs went missing. It would not subside for months, imagine all of the different scinerios you'de have to think of that could happen to a lost dog: death, got hurt, went to house that was mistreated etc... IF someone is looking for their dog they are probably so sick to death and the thought of not knowing what happened is almost worse than just being without your dog. If you cannot find anyinfo to follow to re-unite give me a p.m. and we can talk further, but I insist you try to find the original owners first, it would not feel right taking a dog who has people missing her that she is already bonded to. I agree that just a small amount of time would make a little house dog very dirty by the time you got her. I would also call the humane society etc, there are a lot of people (older people etc) that would not turn to the internet to poat lost ads.... The firts place an internet-free person would try is your local humame society etc. Like I said though, I would help w/ re-homing if need be. I will be travelling over to that side of the state two times in the next month.

Rosiegirl · 03-18-2009, 04:11 AM

Also we are travelling to pennsylvania in another month and I read that Ericajm is interrested too, we could possible participate in a yorkie train to get her out there.... Wouldn't you feel so great to re-unite her with a fam. that has been looking for months and thinks she is long gone?

makennasmommy · 03-18-2009, 04:22 AM

so im dying to know what the op decided to do and if this sweet girl has been lost for some time, or just neglected/let go. Please update!

roxies_mom · 03-18-2009, 04:27 AM

When I first read the OP I thought the same as the rest of you about being lost or stolen. I've seen so many people on here spending day and night looking for their babies. It's possible that some poor family has been heartbroken and thinks they will never see their baby again. It's a hard call because if she has been plain neglected the last thing you want to do is give her back but if she's missed it's only right to figure out where she belongs. I'd have her micro-chip checked. If there is no chip then I'd rehome her. Good luck and God Bless for taking her in.

NANCYETTA · 03-18-2009, 04:59 AM

Please update with a picture. I know that if i lost one of my yorkies i would post on Yorkie talk and check every day, we are such a tight group and so spread out...

This is an EXCELLENT - Yorkie Rescue in Michigan

RetroDoggy Rescue,Michigan Yorkshire Terrier Rescue,Michigan Maltese Rescue

PLEASE contact them. They will take her in and get her any medical care needed. I am apart of their Dog Liver Disease group and I have to say, that THIS rescue goes above and beyond! All dogs that come into their rescue get immediate Vet care and a BAT (Bile Acid Test) and the medical attention and well as the personal love and care put into each dog is truly amazing....
