YT 500 Club Member | Yorkie Rescue in South Korea I recently came across an organization, Animal Rescue Korea (ARK), here in South Korea that rescues Yorkies and other animals from kill-shelters and bad situations. I know at least a handful of YT-ers are military, teachers, etc, in Korea, so I wanted to post this link. Maybe someone can help one of these little guys. The network is run by English-speakers, which is a rarity in Korea. You can help ARK by fostering, adopting, volunteering, and providing supplies. Animal Rescue Korea If anyone wants to adopt one of these guys from the US, I am willing to help make arrangements for travel. There are at least 4 Yorkies available for adoption right now. Two are in foster homes and/or no-kill shelters, and two are in a kill-shelter. The ones in the kill shelter have only a couple days (if that) left. Duke: Duke needs a new home! - Animal Rescue Korea Forums Sex : male Spayed / Neutered : yes Age : 4 yrs Size : 2.5 kg (about 5.5 lbs) Health status/ vaccinations : good health, negative heartworm test. Adoption fee: 50,000 won (about $43.20) Jagi: Jagi - Animal Rescue Korea Forums Sex : male Spayed / Neutered : yes Age : 4 yrs Size : 2.5 kg (about 5.5 lbs) Health status/ vaccinations : good health, negative heartworm test, up to date on vaccinations. Adoption fee: 70,000 won (about $60.48) This link is for two Yorkies in the kill shelter. Scroll to the bottom of the page. These two Yorkies are next on the list for the needle. If you are interested in one of these animals, contact Sophia at 010 4412 1967 (Korea) or coolwwater @ hotmail . com. She speaks Korean and will be able to give you more information. Reply to this thread or PM me if you have questions. And just in case anyone is hasty to judge, no, these are not my dogs.

YT 500 Club Member | That's so sad. It's terrible to say this since they deserved to be loved, but at least they are at peace now. It just broke my heart thinking of them in that "shelter", which in actuality is a moving van packed with cages. Horrible, horrible, horrible. I wish I could have taken them both home myself.
