| Female Yorkie in Moscow OH needs home I ran across this ad for a free yorkie and gave the owner a call. This does sound real. This is the ad: Rescued fm Yorkshire Terrier, I do have some paperwork on her from the vet. She is not that good with kids, would be better with a older person. Please email me if you are interested in her, in subject write Yorkshire Terrier please. Thank you for your time. I call the woman and she doesn't seem to be familiar with yorkies. Her daughter, who works at a vet office, gave it to her. The owner had passed away and they didn't find her for two days (laying beside her)! How sad! The old owner's son brought her to the vet and just handed her off. We talked about what she is doing (barking, picky eater, allergic to fleas, bonding with her husband). Her husband can't stand her bonding with him and since they do not have a fenced-in back yard, she is having trouble taking her potty because she runs after people walking by. She will only eat off the floor or out of her hand and they are feeding her people food. Her daughter is giving her shots for the allergy. (She has cats who must be bringing in fleas.) She sounds like she is at her witts end and wants her gone. She thinks the vet estimated her age at around 6 years and possibly 10 lbs. She is going to call me back. This does sound real. Is anyone around there that needs a new baby girl? She looks adorable! |

| Is she asking for a rehome fee? Would she be okay with you calling the vet that has seen her so that you can ask more questions about her health? She looks VERY cute in her pictures! |

| Nevermind...I see that the ad says, "free". I would think that if it were a scam, then she would be asking for money but I don't know. |

| I thought about it because my son is in IN and will be driving to see me soon. He could possibly bring her down, but I haven't asked him yet. The problem is her weight. Ally is a very small 3lbs 2oz and everybody seems to run her over...even Tia, who is somewhere over 5lbs. I don't want Ally to get hurt. This little girl is super cute though; don't you think? |

| Sorry it took me so long, but just opened her email. Kay Kay was estimated to be 5 - 6 years old and is 5 lbs. I don't know much else until I call her later today. Is there anybody nearby that may want her? She looks so sad and is really beautiful. |

| I'd take her in a heart beat, even if just to place with a rescue or find her the right home, but I'm in GA. Maybe tonight, when more people are on YT, you'll find someone.

| Where is the dog located? This is extremely sad...Her owner died, she is rehomed with people that #1 don't know how to care for her and #2 do not want her. The BEST thing that can be done for this girl is for you to get her and contact a local Yorkie rescue to take, they will Vet her and care for her until the 'proper' home is found. The WORST thing that can be done for her is to be given away for FREE again to God knows who... If you are in FL - please get this girl away from these people ASAP... Call either Florida Yorkie Rescue or Animal Aid in Boca Raton ...this is so sad...and so wrong... |
