Any updates on this story?

I asked the same, I hope she replies.

Maybe she's following leads with the links to people that have lost Yorkies in her area. There are so many, it's sad.

Renovatedgirl · 05-30-2009, 01:55 PM

First off, I not only have to thank all of you, I have to commend you. Your compassion is beyond amazing and you have all been a great example of amazing compassion.

I followed up on all of the leads on CL and even some on the pennysaverusa.com. I searched for "LOST" posters and did not find any. I have followed up with all of the local shelters and human society's and it seems like no one is looking for this little guy. Because of the overpopulation of dogs in Los Angeles County, the procedure for finding a dog is pretty simple and any dog owner knows that the first thing to do is go to the local shelters. I was thinking about going to local vets and groomers as suggested, I am just really afraid of fraud. Since this little guy is full-grown at 4.3 pounds, he is perfect for breeders that want to make a quick buck. I'm so afraid of giving him to someone that is not going to care for him the right way since he has already been through a lot.

His spirits seem to be up. He does a little dance when I come into the room and he is eating and drinking. He hasn't pooped since late Thursday and that really worries me, but I am assuming that the change in food has been hard on his system. I am looking into it. He also has some really bad breath. The vet looked at his teeth, but he didn't mention anything about having bad teeth. They look to have a lot of build up, so maybe thats why his breath stinks. He also sleeps a lot. I have never had a yorkie, so I am not sure how much these guys sleep. I thought maybe it was because he is sad??

Monday will mark a week that I have been fostering this little guy. If I don't see anything "LOST" posters by that day then I think I have no choice but to make "FOUND" posters. I just hope that making those kind of posters is not going to attract evil people that just use these little guys.

I am really worried and just want to do the very best for him.

Once again, thank you so much for your advice and kind words...I really admire you.

wow if you were not so far from me i would say that was Yoshi but he is microchip.

Sharon Jaros · 05-30-2009, 04:00 PM

Why not call your local police and fire departmnts in your immediate area. I would be careful with stating he's a yorkie, there are so many thieving people out there. I would state "Found Dog, 2 yrs old, small, and scope out any calls carefully.

We had a 5 pound, mixed pup come into our yard last summer, he jumped on my mother in laws lap with her cats toy and wantd to have her throw it. I would have kept him but the dog did not like large dogs (I had 2 at the time), I took her to a 24 hour vet who scanned for micro-chip, we located her former owner, who said she had put put the dog up for adoption, a local couple had her, The husband got tired of the dog so he let it go.

To make long story short, it was adopted by the vet tech through the best wishes of the family of the former owner that very night, GOOD PART: the man in his 70's had died just a few months earlier, the dog never left his side for the last part of his life--he was in a coma. Now there was loyalty which only love could have created.

Not all microchips show up on all scanners. Depending upon what unit the vet/spca uses.
