| good home wanted for my best friend I have had my yorkie for 10 years, and he has been my best friend. I got him right after my divorce and he was the only thing that saved me. He has been thru 4 kids, cats, other dogs, and city and country living. He got injured when he was playing with my boxer, and his jaw ended up broken. I could not afford to fix it and the vet said as long as he can eat he will be fine. He eats great and drinks, no problem. He needs his teeth pulled, they are decayed but I do not have money to fix them. I lost my job and could not take him to the vet. I lost my 3 year old boxer 6 months ago to cardiomyopathy, and I still cry for him. I wear his ashes in a heart around my neck. I just got a job which involves travel away from home 5 days a week. I have tried to have someone watch him, but it is not working. I cant bear the thought of giving him away, but I need to think of him. He is the most loving, loyal dog anyone could ask for. He is never more than 2 feet away from me. He is great around any atmosphere, he needs no leash, I take him to flea markets and he rides in the cart. I have a backpack and take him on my motorcycle even. He is only about 3 lbs and he is black and brown. I live in akron, ohio and have tried every rescue group around with no response. Please help me find a good home for my best friend. Michele |

| Yorkie Haven does not have foster homes in OH. If you pm your email address to me, I can send this information to a friend of mine in OH to see if she might have any ideas.

| To the OP: Please be sure that you thoroughly check out anyone who you are considering giving your best friend to! He clearly needs vet care that is not going to be cheap! Make sure that you get the name of the vet that people use and call and be sure that they have a good history of fully vetting their pups, including dentals as needed. You really should also do a home visit to see where he will be living. Good luck to you! I hope he finds a wonderful home.

| Praying for you that you can find your best friend a good home. Do you not have a friend or relative that can keep him?

| thanks to all Thanks to all who have replied. I have tried all of the rescue groups but no response. I am afraid I have no choice but to put him down. I feel like I have betrayed him after all of the years of joy he has given me. I realize his needs are too much for someone to take on. |

| I do not have any pics. He is black with a tan head and legs. He is just 3 lbs, and I recently cut him short after years of keeping him long. |
