Precious little one recovering from shunt surgery in TN Look at this adorable tiny girl - They say Ellie is a morkie http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/dis...petid=12611106 She is absolutely beautiful. This one needs a special home and some prayers |
OMG- what a beautiful face! Poor little girl- she must be a fighter- she sure looks really good for all she has been through!! Hope she finds the perfect home SOON!! |
Her adoption fee is $2000! Doesn't that seem excessive? |

I looked at the rescue site and they do want 2000 adoption fee. |

that poor little dog. i'm glad she's ok after surgery but i think the rescue is insane in charging a $2000 adoption fee. who is going to pay that? just because she had surgery to repair the shunt does not mean she's a healthy pup now. she is still in for a rough life and the shunt may come back depending on how it was fixed. |
well I think YTNR is usually higher priced on a lot of their rescues - but they do take dogs no one else will take. I did find her page - I was using the link at the top of the petfinder page - that doesn't take you to the complete website - you need to go to Yorkshire Terrier National Rescue, Inc. |
Here is her page on YTNR Looking for a New Home... That fee is unbelievably high! :eek: She is in TN |
about that little Morkie She is so sweet and adorable, but who is going to pay $2000.00 for her, they are having you pay for the vet bills, that doesn't seem right, plus how do you know if she is going to be ok, i would be leary, but she is beautiful, I think someone that can afford her, will really be happy, but I would be leary of a lot of vet bills to come. |
YTNR really does have very high adoption fees for some of their dogs. I understand that their medical care has probably cost more than that, or they use the extra money to cover expenses for the older dogs, but I feel like the pricey ones won't end up getting adopted b/c people don't want to spend that much on a rescue, especially with the economy the way it is. If people were willing to spend that much they could just buy a baby from a breeder and they would know the history of their Yorkie's line. Plus, rescue dogs are more likely to have issues b/c of what has happened in their past. I am really glad that YTNR rescues these babies, but I see the high priced dogs on there for months, while the lower priced dogs get adopted more quickly. All the dogs that were over 500 in November (with some posted in September) are STILL on the website, while many of the ones priced 100-450/500 have been adopted or are in the process of being adopted. None of the higher priced ones have been reduced either, even though they have been on the site for months. These babies need forever homes, but they don't have them, I believe, b/c of their high cost. |
