| Little Kirby needs a home again! As you may recall Little Kirby is a yorkshire terrier that was born blind. He is sooo sweet! What happened is that the foster family decided to adopt him and well . . .he is now back at the Yorkie Rescue Group. Please read Dr. Will's message: Hello Everyone, I'm very disappointed to let you know that the family that adopted Little Kirby (the blind Yorkie) just recently surrendered him back to the Yorkie Rescue Group. Candidly, I don't know why. The reason it's so frustrating for me is because I had a number of well qualified families interested in taking him home but the foster family he was with insisted in keeping him. The rescue group just contacted me with the following information: "Kirby loves to play, loves other dogs, children, his toys and to lay in the sun. He will sleep in a crate at night, he walks on a leash, he does not like being left alone but that could be due to the fact he is blind and has been uprooted from what he knows and is now in a strange home and it will take some adjustment time. The potential adoptive family does need to realize Kirby is a special needs dog and will need special attention to make him feel safe and secure in his new surroundings. He is a healthy dog and current on all vaccinations, he has not been neutered yet but will be before he is placed. He is now 7 months old and now weighs 11 lbs. He is adorable, has the sweetest personality and just needs the right family to let him be everything he can be. If you feel you know someone who would be interested in making this special puppy part of their family please contact Patty Edwards of The Yorkshire Terrier Club of Los Angeles. Here is Patty's e-mail address: yorkielover@cox.net Thanks so much, Dr. WILL |

The lady told me she wanted someone who was home a lot and had experience with blind/disabled dogs. I have lot of experience with rescue dogs, which require just as much time. Whatever.

| This may be a "dumb" question but, is/was the rescue group aware that there would be someone home 90%. I would rather have younger, rescue experienced people that would be home most of the time. Sounds like a frivolous response. |

| Thanks for all of the support. If they can find him a home better than mine then that's fantastic and I sure hope that for his sake, they do.
