| I contacted them but they have a rule that they don't allow apartment dwellers to adopt their dogs. I've had many dogs over the years, and two of them were Yorkies and two were rescues, but we never even got that far because the apartment was a show stopper. This is not the first time I've encountered this elitist rule on the part of a rescue organization. I didn't know I was becoming a second-class citizen when I sold my house and moved to a retirement community. Oh well... |

| I have to agree with the previous poster... Just because one doesn't have a fenced in backyard, you are not allowed to adopt from them. I think that is completely ludicrous, but to each their own. I have two yorkies who have never had a fence, and they are doing just fine, as I know hundreds of yorkies on this site don't have one. I am not in the market for another yorkie (I WISH ), but I think it's sad that a perfect home with love and affection isn't enough Also wanted to add, I DO agree with their rule about young children, but not necessarily with the fact that you MUST have two small dogs. Anyway, just my opinion....they can do whatever they like ........

| They are picky. Some of the Yorkies have been there for a at least a couple years. Been in contact with them.

| wow - I can't believe they would hang onto these yorkies for a couple years. I didn't realize that they were saying no to apartment dwellers - so many yorkies are pad trained.
