One more would just be too much... but we can handle it for a bit until we find his perfect home.

If you lived closer to me, I think I'd be in trouble and snatch him up... lol.

boopster · 09-27-2010, 08:00 PM

He's darling and you are a hero for rescuing him!

lexi43 · 09-28-2010, 06:09 AM

Wow he's beautiful. I have to echo. If I lived closer to you I would take him in a hearbeat. I have four dogs right now but what the h--- what's one more.

keokis mom · 09-28-2010, 06:14 AM

I'm so glad you did this for him

I hope you find buddy a great furever home!!! Keep us posted with updates!

Update: We are getting to know Buddy a little more, and he is such a sweetie. A stipulation that DH put on fostering him was that he would not sleep in bed with us... We had not heard him bark even once until I put him upstairs in the exercise pen and left him. He was NOT a happy little guy, so we kenneled him in our bedroom and didn't hear a peep from him all night. He did so well

He is getting along perfectly with my dogs and is very submissive. He already loves me and is slowly getting to know my husband (he's a little scared... probably because DH is 6'4").

He has only had one accident in the house (and he was whining at the door to get out).

I just don't understand how someone could rehome him. I guess the owner before the lady I met rehomed him because they weren't home enough and he was lonely. I'm hoping to find him the perfect home, somewhere that someone is home all day and without kids... Might be hard, but I know there is someone out here that needs this little guy... He would make someone very happy!

Maximo · 09-28-2010, 06:51 AM

He is such a handsome little boy! Sounds like he has a great disposition. Thank you for taking care of this precious one and making sure he finds a loving family.

RachelandSadie · 09-28-2010, 06:54 AM

i volunteered a friend that rescues once for the same situation it was a pitbull that was for free to a good home. we got him rescued before someone evil could get him and fight him...you know that would happen. so thank God he's with her and happy and loved now and not out on the fighting circuit. he's such a sweet and loving boy too.

good for you for knowing what could happen and stopping that chain!

proud proud!!

That would be perfect - someone that would be home with him all day. Of course, he's already got the really perfect home.

What an absolute doll!

Patti · 09-28-2010, 06:58 AM

What a cutie. He sounds so sweet. That was great of you to get him so he didn't fall into the wrong hands again.

margaritaville · 09-28-2010, 07:28 AM

He's adorable. He will make someone a great friend.

CouversMom · 09-29-2010, 06:13 AM

Update:

I might have found Buddy the PERFECT home! A friend of mine emailed me and asked me if I had adopted the yorkie that was on Craigslist because the lady told her she had adopted him out to a lady named Michelle. Of course I told her it was me... and she asked me what my plan was with him. I told her I wanted to get him neutered and rehome him... and she said she was interested

I emailed her pictures and she says he's adorable. We are going to meet this afternoon at the park and do a meet and greet. She wants to see how he does with her dogs, and she wants to take him home. She will take him to his neuter appointment that I scheduled, and wants to get his teeth cleaned.

She has had a yorkie before who she rescued and had a collapsed trachea. She eventually had to put her down because she was sufferring from it, and it has been almost two years since. She is a responsible owner and takes them to the vet regularly, gets their teeth cleaned and her dogs are all neutered.

I will be so happy with her as his owner, and will feel like I did the right thing by fostering him. Wish me luck... we are meeting today at 4!

yorkieusa · 09-29-2010, 06:40 AM

That sounds wonderful. I hope everything works out great for both of you and, especially, for little Buddy!

pookiebear · 09-29-2010, 06:48 AM

Oh my goodness. He is adorable. You'll find it hard to re-home him. That's so weird that you found him on Craigslist. That's where I found my Bella. As soon as I saw her, I knew I had to take her home with me.
