Dinky 2.7 lb need new home - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Dinky · 06-04-2012, 02:05 PM

Hello everyone, I have my mother's 2.7 lb yorkie. She is 11-12 years old. Both her hips are out of socket and she is NOT a candidate for surgery per our vet. She gets along really well, she can even run when she wants to. She lived with my mother who unfortunately has alzheimers and can no longer care for her. I would like to find her another home where she is safe. I have large dogs and they don't bother her, but all they need to do is step on her and she will be in trouble. Any thoughts on how to find a good home?

Send a pm to YT member Ladyjane...she works with Yorkie Haven Rescue, they have foster homes in Texas. I would make sure she goes to a rescue to make sure the home is pre-approved and checked out thoroughly.

I agree. Get here in a yorkie rescue that will screen new homes... She is tiny and should not live in a home with small children or large dogs.

I completely agree. A Yorkie Rescue would be the best place since they do background and home checks on people before they place any dog.
