need rescue asap 4 years ago i re-homed one of my breeding females (I no longer breed) I had her spayed, teeth cleaned, fully vetted. she went to live with a senior citizen in my church. I went to check on her several times she was always beautifully groomed, in great shape--now fast forward to last night when I got a phone call from the lady that she needed me to come get the dog because she could no longer care for her, when I got her home --OMG !! SHE WAS COVERED IN FLEAS and she had sores all over, teeth in horrible condition, hair falling out in the back, nails so long , I don't know how she could walk !! but she was still her sweet self. she is 12 years old and needs a new home. I have 3 senior dogs and I don't have the money to take care her. she is housebroke, walks well on a leash, gets along great with MALE DOGS NOT AT ALL WITH FEMALE DOGS. If i had the money I would keep her, hubby not working due to health and with 3 old dogs already that have health issues I just can't. PLEASE HELP |
I am so sorry... Have you contacted any rescues in your area? |
OMG, Gloria I feel your pain, I am dealing with Zoey who I just got back to to a divorce and she came in terrible conditions too.. , but since she only a pup people came out of the wood work to adopt her, wishing you best of luck with your girl.. hugs, |
in my area there are no yorkie rescues in my area and being that she is 12 years old I'm doubtful that anyone will take her. I contacted my vet this am and he suggested treating her skin problems which will cost me $75.00 and then getting a rescue to take her and address her teeth issues. Heck I don't have $75.oo right now, he was giving me a discount since he spayed and cleaned her teeth 4 years ago. he said antibotics and skin cream will clear it up faster than neosporin that I had put on her. i just hope a rescue will take her. |
I'm sorry for what your going through, contact all your resources in the area, including the SPCA go to your local Pet Supplies Plus or Petco and get the names of rescues from them, they work with several (in NY anyways)...You have to follow through with this girl....she needs you...good luck.. |
Yorkshire Terrier National Rescue DOES have foster homes in TN. I would suggest you contact them: Yorkshire Terrier National Rescue, Inc. |
thank you thanks for the link i did that. now I just have to post a pic baby is on antibotics now and hopefully her sores will clear up soon and her hair will grow back, I'm going to trim her up this week end and try to even her out, she is sooo beautiful when she is in good shape. |
Rescue didn't help... Well. I postedthe information on the rescue web site and a lady in savanna, tn emailed back and forth for 2 days and then she decided she didn't want a 12 year old dog. I told her up front she was 12 years old. How do i go about getting a rescue to come and pick her up or take her to them? |

You might want to do a search on Petfinder for yorkies in your area to see if perhaps there is another rescue that might be able to help. |
Try https://www.facebook.com/bridgehome or The Bridge Home No Kill Animal Rescue They were the ones that protested during the Yorkie Abuse case last year. they are in Blountville, TN |
Oh my. :(. I hoe you can get a rescue to help you. |
You might try this one. They are out of the Knoxville area. https://www.facebook.com/PreciousPawsAsianDogRescue |
I don't do facebook i don't do facebook but the rescue in Blountville, tn says they cant't help because of her age and they have no room right now. But they put her on a web site for me. I don't know what to do, hubby says he is tired of having to take her out separate from our other 2 female yorkies just because she doesn't like them and tries to fight. My husband had to take early retirement because of his health and he takes of the dogs while i'm at work and I feel sorry for him and for baby who though no fault of her own is need ing a new home. if anyone knows of someone looking for a free senior yorkie that can be the only female dog, please let me know. thanks |
Where do you live in TN? |
lewisburg I live in lewisburg about 1 hr south of nashville, she does get along with male dogs but hates the female dogs |
