Poor little Teddy came to them as a breeder dog who lived his entire 7 years in a cage :(. When his breeder was done with him she dropped him off at the vet and requested that he be euthanized :eek:! Thank God the vet was horrified by the request and contacted Florida Yorkie Rescue. Teddy along with Max, another Yorkie from the same breeder, were immediately brought into the loving arms of foster with Kit.

I saw his picture and literally fell in love. I just knew in my heart that he was meant for us. We prayed and prayed that we would be chosen to be his forever family. Well today Kit let us know that wish would be coming true! I can honestly say that I don’t think I have ever experienced such joy in my life :). I cried like a baby when we got off the phone. It truly feels like our family has been completed with little Teddy.

I will be meeting with Kit this weekend to pick him up. I truly cannot say enough good things about her and her rescue. In our eyes they are angels. I feel like I have found a true close friend in Kit and I look forward to helping her cause in any capacity that I can. These people are amazing! All of the Yorkie’s that are brought to their rescue are treated like their own babies. When kit updated me of Teddy’s status after his neuter and dental I was so touched to hear that she rocked each and every rescue separately to sleep with “mommy time” that night while they recovered. WOW. She has been so understanding and caring throughout this whole process. I know Teddy has been particularly close to her heart and it will be hard for her to let him go, but I have assured her plenty of visits and pictures!

I have attached some of the CUTEST pictures ever of Mr. Teddy that Kit has taken. I think we might have a little super model on our hands. Kit says that in spite of his past, he is the biggest love bug ever! He has certainly come to the right home for “lovins”, LOL. He is in for a life full of snuggles and kisses. It is hard to look at his sweet face and imagine how someone could literally request that he be put to sleep. I just cannot fathom it.

So I will post more pictures and an update of his first meeting with Ralphie and Agnes after he is home with us. I know that they will have so much fun teaching little Teddy what it is like to be a dog.

Thanks to Kit again, you are truly Teddy’s angel! :hearts-xx:hearts-xx:hearts-xx

We totally agree. It is great that there are people in the world, especially this Vet, who would put himself in the possible position of getting himself in trouble to save an innocent animal. He said he would do it again if the same situation presented itself. Kudos to him!:bravo:

I am not sure that people understand just how wonderful this vet is and what the penalty could be if the breeder didn't sign the wavier papers. These dogs are property and as such should have been put down if the owners wanted it. I remember a hugh lawsuit about 4 years ago for this very reason. The original owners didn't want to take care of the dog anymore so asked the vet to euthanize the dog. Long story short, they found out a year later the dog was still alive and sued the vet.

So let's continue to celebrate the positive side of this story and rejoice with the excited new Momma to be, Adrienne! :clapsmile

Bless you girl! Teddy is going to be one heck of a lucky little boy!

What a wonderful story and such a happy ending. There really are so many people who are passing it on and helping the world. Thank you everyone!
