Thank you Yorkieluv.

Good news, the little girl has been re-united with her owners.

Attached is a picture of the 10 year old girl that we may adopt, if her owners don't come by Monday we have first dibs on her.

She's ADORABLE !!!

My feeling is to go for it ...I agree she may be missing but the wait time is at least long enough for owners to contact all the shelters if they're looking... and I agree that too many people drop off dogs because they basically don't want the responsiblilty or a dog is ill - but if she's been vet checked and sounds healthy - go get that baby !!!

and I bet we're going to be seeing way more yorkies in shelters now due to the overbreeding ......it's a sad thing

but happens when a breed gets popular.

I'm sorry about your Precious...that's so sad

All the best to you - she looks like she really needs some good lovin

EDITED !!! so sorry - just saw your update we posted at the same time lol !! I'm so glad for the people who were missing her .....and now I'll wish you all the best on the one you just posted about !!!

I just want to say God bless you for adopting these adorable babies. All they need is love. You must be such a wonderful human being.

So glad the owners picked up the little one you were considering. Sad for you, but glad the puppy wasn't abandoned. Hope that all works out well with the other one. Considering the care you give to your pups, this little girl will be falling into a pot of gold.

They are both So cute. I am happy the first girl found her fur family

As for the second I think you are wonderful people to be able to give her a home.I hope you do get her and give her a forever home.And the age being close to that of your dog you have now would be good

Also so sorry for the loss of you sweet girl in febuary.

Yorkieluv · 05-05-2007, 12:02 PM

This 10 year old yorkie is adorable as well!!! It sounds like you will be a wonderful home for her, if you decide to take her in

Good luck on your decision, and keep us posted!

JiggityJig · 05-05-2007, 05:57 PM

Aw, I'm glad the little one found her family! She looked like she'd been loved!

The older girl is adorable too~! I hope you're able to get her, and make the rest of her life comfortable and happy and filled with love!

Well we adopted the little girl pictured above. She is about9 years old according to our vet.

After three days in the shelter she started vomiting and getting diarrhea. The folks at the shelter made it sound like she was an aids patient or something. We took her straight to our vet who couldn't find any obvious problems other than a cataract in one eye. She's a little skinny at 6.5lbs. The doc put her on some antibiotics and anti-nausea meds. He also took a blood sample and we'll get him a stool sample when we can.

We took her home and got her a bath to get her clean (she was filthy). Got her some dinner and then spent some time bonding with her. She started out really shy at the shelter but has really warmed up to us in the last 3 or so hours.

We're keeping her quarantined from our other dog in the basement (don't worry it's a finsished basement with dog bed, blankets and a crate with a blanket too.) Right now she's snuggling with my wife in the downstairs bedroom. So things look good, our boy Freddie has heard her bark but is really being pretty cool about things. So we'll see how things go.

Our beloved little girl Precious died in February at the age of ten after an unsuccessful surgery to try and implant a pacemaker. We miss her greatly and can never replace her.

Our house just isn't the same without two dogs so we want to find Freddie a friend.

I am so happy Freddie has a new friend ...
