Donating YT 30K Club Member | I know there is a Florida Yorkie rescue but I am not sure what it is. Hopefully someone else will see this that knows. I went to a no kill shelter near my house a few years ago and took the orientation class and started walking dogs. Then due to staff cuts they needed help in the Animal Health area updating records etc. So I offered to come every Wednesday and do it. It is hard some days, well most days to work in a shelter environment but I feel it's the least I can do for the less fortunate dogs and cats. I hope you find an opportunity in your area.

| Go to the YTCA.org website, you can obtain the contact information for the two Florida Yorkie Regional Clubs....These clubs are always looking for fosters.
