Update 9/21/23: Have you ever seen a cuter little face? Cant even imagine him wandering the streets, or behind bars at a shelter. Hes the sweetest little love.and now Toby (aka Midget) is safe, comfortable, and receiving care for a severe infection. Although the shelter had him listed as 6 years-old, the vet thinks hes closer to 14-16 years-old. We dont think he sees very well but he isnt running into anything. He really loves his foster mom and dad, knows their voices, and spends his time following them around. Toby likes playing musical beds and has found his favorite spots quickly. He loves to be held and brushed! Hes still wheezing and has a pretty bad infection, so he was started on antibiotics yesterday. We suspect his severe dental disease, and perhaps an abscess may be the causes of his infection. Well repeat his bloodwork in two weeks to check on the status of the infection and develop a treatment plan to address all his other medical issues from there.

Please continue to check for updates on sweet, tiny Toby as his foster mom gets to know him better and works on improving his infection. This little guy is safe, comfortable, and receiving the love, kindness and respect he deserves now that hes surrounded by our UYR team, and generous supporters like YOU!

Initial Bio 9/18/23: WITH JUST HOURS LEFT BEFORE EUTHANASIA TOBY, AKA MIDGET SAFE!

Florida
Olivia

Olivia is a yorkie mix girl weighing only 4.4 pounds. She is between 6 months-1 year old and is fostered in Umatilla, FL. Only Florida applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO OLIVIA'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta

Olivia has been adopted 12/10/23!

Updated bio 11/24/23: Olivia is such a fun pup. Her personality continues to shine showing off her playful side. She loves playing with her toys but will also curl up in your lap for rest time.

The vet estimates that Olivia is less than 1 year old which means Olivia needs a home that can be devoted to her for at least 15 years. Olivia will now sit for treats and is really close to being housebroken. She does have puppy energy so a fenced in backyard or a pup sibling playmate would be a great benefit to Olivia. She gets along great with other dogs. She loves getting under the blankets in the bed at bedtime. Olivia loves everyone.

A healthy and happy pup, she is small (only 5 pounds) so we request that her forever home have no children under the age of 12. During her time with her UYR foster family, Olivia got spayed and has been given the all clear by the vet to find her forever family.

Updated Bio 10/16/21: Olivia came to us from Animal Control. She saw our vet this morning for her wellness exam. Imagine our surprise when the vet said Miss Olivia is a puppy between 6months old - 1 year old, possibly a Morkie. She has a tail! She still has baby teeth. Little Olivia is 5 lbs. She is healthy and happy. Olivia gets along great with dogs, she is very playful and full of energy. Loves everyone. Dances all the time. Super soft fur that needs regular combing. She will be spayed on Thursday. Possibly remove a few baby teeth that are in the way of the adult teeth. Please keep in mind Olivia is a very young dog. Olivia needs a forever home and family that can be with her for at least 15 or more years. Due to Olivias small size no children under 12 years old.

Initial bio 10/12/23: Olivia is an adorable and super sweet girl and as we learn more about her we will keep everyone posted. She just arrived into foster today from a local shelter. We do know that she loves to give kisses! As we learn more about Ms. Olivia we will update everyone soon.

Georgia
Louie

Welcome to sweet Louie, a 1 year old, 12 pound Yorkie mix boy being fostered in Suwanee, GA.

THANK YOU TO LOUIE'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta

Updated Bio 11/7/23

Louie is a beautiful 1 year old red rascal with the most adorable expressions. He is super curious about the world around him like most puppies are. Louie needs to spend more time out and about where he can learn that the outside world and strange sights and sounds arent always a threat. We dont know much about his background except that he and a sibling were surrendered and taken into rescue. Louie has not had proper attention before, but he is eager to please and ready to be trained. He is a Velcro puppy who wants his parents attention. He loves to his toys and likes to play and is great at fetch and loves to snuggle up next to his person in bed at night! Hed love a playful friend his size or larger but would also do well on his own. He seems to only be curious about cats and one near swat on the nose and satisfied his curiosity for the moment. He would not be good with a submissive partner, either dog or human since he can get too bossy and protective when really what he needs is to feel secure and protected. Louie is about 89% housetrained and currently wears a belly band in the house but with frequent outings and attention paid by his people he is getting better and better. He has a beautiful red wire coat and white chin and chest blaze and is currently weighing in at about 12 pounds. He has a mild skin irritation but some medicated baths at home are helping to get rid of the dry itchiness. Louie doesnt shed much now that he is in a stable and much calmer environment. It would be good to have a home where people are around most of the day. Louie hates the crate but will tolerate it for short periods of time. If you want a real companion to spend your time with then Louie is a great choice to fill a home with love and affection.

Initial Bio 10-26-23

Louie has just come into rescue stay tuned for more information.

Willow
Minnesota
Willow

<

Meet Willow, a precious 5 year old, 12 pound Yorkie girl being fostered in Minnesota. Willow and Wyatt are a bonded pair and will need to be adopted together, no exceptions.

THANK YOU TO WILLOW'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Jacob Leathers

10/25/2023 - Willow and Wyatt are two delightful younger yorkies, who came to UYR about two weeks ago. Both have settled into their foster home remarkably well. They both enjoy being outside in the yard, and have already learned to go by the door when they want to go outside. Willow and Wyatt are both 100% housebroken and have not had any accidents in the house other than the first day or two, which was very likely due to the stress of being removed from their home. Both dogs are completely crate trained. They love their crates and will go in and lay down and take a nap throughout the day. Please email the foster mom with any questions at MNYorkieMom@gmail.com.

We have been working on socializing them a bit, but have not been forcing anything in order not to overwhelm them. Wyatt is very easy going and loves being petted and will roll over for belly rubs. Willow is a little more timid, and although she enjoys being petted, she is still a little reserved and unsure of people. There are other dogs in the home, and they have gotten along well with all of them, and have started playing with the other dogs in the morning after everyone has eaten.

10/13/2023 Initial Bio - Willow and Wyatt were surrendered to UYR due to the owners no longer being able to care for them due to their own personal serious medical issues.

Both Willow and Wyatt are up to date on vaccines and healthy, however their foster mom has determined they will require some work with socialization. Willow especially is a bit timid.

Foster mom will share additional updates as the sweet babies decompress and become more comfortable in their foster home.


To date we've spent $601.29 on Willow's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $50 in donations.

Wyatt

Meet Wyatt, a handsome 5 year old, 11 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in Minnesota. Wyatt and Willow are a bonded pair and will need to be adopted together, no exceptions.

THANK YOU TO WYATT'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Jacob Leathers

12/9/23 Update: Wyatt's a super sweet, cuddly, and playful boy. He loves snuggling and spending as much time on a warm lap and getting belly rubs as possible! Hes an active, rough and tumble guy who enjoys running in the yard and rough housing with his sister Willow, he will need a fenced yard and exercise to burn off his energy. Wyatt loves meal time and is vocal about it. Hes a pleaser and will look for reassurance and guidance and will smile letting you know hes happy. He sleeps in his kennel at night, although hed love to sleep with his person if possible. Wyatts potty trained and loves to smile to show his affection. He needs someone who will be patient and provide guidance, understanding his first 5 years werent structured and he's been in charge of his sister Willow, but now he can let that go and live his best doggy life.

Updated Bio 11/17/23

For those that dont know Dewey Finns story he came into rescue after being dumped at a shelter in very bad shape. The shelter immediately reached out to rescue so we could get this little guy the care he desperately needed. He had a real bad upper respiratory infection that developed into pneumonia. He on the verge of not making it when he was hospitalized for three days. He was released from the hospital and on home care with a strict routine and medications to take. With regular visits to his Dogtor Dewey was healed from the pneumonia. Unfortunately scar tissue has developed in his lungs due to the pneumonia, but it doesnt cause any ongoing health issues at this time for Dewey. Although Dewey can see well we did testing and found out he is completely deaf. He gets around great and has a good sense of smell. Dewey had a few very infected teeth left and they were removed. The infected teeth caused a fistula in his mouth that needed to be stitched up. Dewey just had a recheck after a month and the fistula is 75 percent healed. We are hoping this continues to heal otherwise he may need to see a specialist if it doesnt fully close up. In the meantime foster mom has to wipe out his mouth every evening to ensure no food debris causes infection. Also Dewey has some changes in his care , due to his bloodwork he has to be on kidney prescription diet , he also has to have an allergy shot on a regular basis and be on prescription shampoo for his skin, he has to be bathed in it every 4 days. His thyroid numbers are off to but could be due to his skin at this time he doesnt need to be on thyroid medication. He has to have another recheck in a month for his bloodwork and skin. He received antibiotic shot today and an allergy shot. Dogtor says his weight is good at 4 pounds and his muscle tone is good. He is a wonderful little boy. He enjoys being petted and he can be playful. He loves bath time and he will give occasional kisses. Thank you all donating to his special care.

Dewey has been released from the hospital since August 18th. For those that dont know Dewey Finns story he came into rescue after being dumped at a shelter in very bad shape. The shelter immediately reached out to rescue so we could get this little guy the care he desperately needed. He had a real bad upper respiratory infection that developed into pneumonia. He on the verge of not making it when he was hospitalized for three days. He was released to home care and has been going to regular checkups with his Dogtor to make sure he continues to improve. Dewey has shown wonderful improvement within these last three weeks. He is no longer contagious and has been able to be around the other dogs in the home for a bit during the day he just cant get overtired. Dewey has found his voice and will bark if he wants your attention now and he eats very well. He has started to put weight back on. He is still a little fragile older guy and he has a little hump back due to his skeletal structure. He has also developed scar tissue in his lungs caused by the pneumonia. Although Dewey can see well we did testing and found out he is completely deaf. He gets around great and has a good sense of smell. Dewey has a few very infected teeth left and in another month or so we will get them removed and that should help with his runny nose. In the meantime Dewey is finishing up the remainder of his antibiotics and is getting love and special care in his foster home. He is a wonderful little boy. He enjoys being petted and scratched. He loves bath time and he will give occasional kisses. Thank you all donating to his special care. If you would like to donate click PayPal button underneath this bio.

Updated Bio 8/24/23

Dewey Finn has been a good little patient since being back home with Foster Mom after being hospitalized for 3 days with Pneumonia. He has been home almost a week. He is taking his antibiotics, he doesnt like it but has been swallowing them. Dewey is eating a mixture of soft dog food and baby food on his own licking from a plate. He is drinking plenty of Water. Dewey Finn had a recheck with the Dr. yesterday and had X rays done and it did show improvement on the pneumonia. His sugar level is still maintaining on its own at this time. He will have another recheck in a week. In the meantime he will continue with his antibiotics and rest with his heartbeat cuddle dog stuffed toy that he snuggles with. Dewey cannot be around the other dogs as some forms of pneumonia are contagious so the Dogtor said to keep him separated as a precautions. Any questions email Foster mom at mandymsmith1@yahoo.com.

Updated Bio 8/19/23

After being hospitalized for 3 days Dewey Finn was released today at 5pm. He has been maintaining his sugar and is breathing well on his own. He is still not out of the woods completely yet. Foster mom has to monitor him carefully. He will still have some coughing and some nasal discharge but it is suppose to continue to improve over the next few days. We will have to watch closely to make sure he doesnt have to make an effort to breathe or if he doesnt seem to keep improving and eating on his own then we may end up right back where we started. He has been sent home with 2 antibiotics and a medication to entice him to eat. He is to have a recheck with his regular vet in 7 days and he will have X-rays to see if he is continuing to improve. So Dewey Finn and Foster Mom thank you all for your continued support and prayers of healing. He is a little fighter!! If you would like to donate to his care you can go to www.uyr.us and click on the PayPal key underneath his bio. Any questions email Foster Mom at mandymsmith1@yahoo.com. We will update again after his recheck appointment.

Updated Bio 8/16/23

Dewey Finn has been admitted to the ER after a recheck appointment at the Dogtor. Dewey was being treated for a severe upper respiratory infection and now he has Pneumonia. He is at the ER hospital and is on oxygen and they will be treating him with stronger antibiotics and fluids to see if we can get some improvement. He is a little guy at 3.5lbs and is estimated to be 13 years old so we arent sure how he will respond to treatment but we wanted to give Dewey his best chance. Please consider donating to his care and sent pawsitive vibes and prayers for this little guy to recover. We dont know any history or where he came from other than the shelter so that doesnt help much but they will be running some tests to see what maybe caused this to happen to sweet Dewey. He has been eating and drinking and been having normal bathroom.

For those that dont know his story here is his initial bio. He has just came into rescue after being dumped at a shelter in bad shape. The shelter reached out to us to see if we could help this small boy . Of course we said yes and as soon as he got to his Foster home Foster mom bathed him and cut out all the knots and matts so we could get a good look at this sweet boy. Dewey has seen our vet and she determined that he has a severe upper respiratory infection. He is on an antibiotic, eye medication and cough medication. Any questions email foster mom at mandymsmith1@yahoo.com.

Updated Bio 8/10/23: When Dewey got to his Foster home Foster mom bathed him and cut out all the knots and matts so we could get a good look at this sweet boy. Dewey has seen our vet and she determined that he has a severe upper respiratory infection. He is on an antibiotic, eye medication and cough medication. Dewey was also running a high fever. The Doctor also thinks he might need to be on thyroid medication but his lab work is off the charts right now and he will need to have it rechecked in a week once the antibiotics kick in. Foster mom is hand feeding him because he feels so bad it is hard for him to eat or want to eat. He will need a dental as he is missing most all his teeth and the teeth he has left are in horrible shape. He will also need to be neutered. That will all be taking care of when he is feeling better. We cant wait to see his personality when he gets all the medical care he needs. Stay tuned for updates and please consider donating to his special care by clicking the PayPal button underneath this bio.

Meet Elliot who is a 10 year old Yorkie Mix weighing 17.2lbs and is being fostered near Ashland City, TN.

THANK YOU TO ELLIOT'S RESCUE ANGELS!

THANK YOU TO ELLIOT'S FACEBOOK DONORS!

Karry Rogers

Updated Bio 11/18/23

Elliot is one of the most sweetest and smartest dogs around. He is a very chill guy and enjoys spending his days lounging around and being petted. He came into rescue with his brother who has been adopted but Elliot hasn’t found his “Forever Home” yet. Elliot is diagnosed with being on the verge of “Cushings Disease” which can be managed with medication. As of right now he doesn’t have it but all signs of aging is leaning towards this disease. He does have a thyroid issue which is being managed with medication and he is taking a medication for his gallbladder. He takes his medication easily with food and both medications are affordable. Elliot is a beautiful doggie with lots of love and life to give who truly deserves a home of his own. He is not much for going on walks but will go potty outside in a fenced yard and will also use wee wee pads in the house. He does drink lots of water and he will wear a belly band. Elliot rides well in a car and he loves to sleep right beside his person at night. Elliot would make someone a great companion he just needs some continued medical care to life his best life. Please fill out an application for this sweetheart if your interested or donate to his care by clicking the PayPal Button underneath.

Updated Bio 8/30/23: Hi there yall! Im Elliott and I sure am happy to meet you! I feel like a very lucky guy to have found my way into United Yorkie Rescue. I haven't had this much love, care, and special attention since...well FOREVER! I've only been in my new foster home a short time but Ive been really getting around. I've had lots of time with my Dogtors and they are working really hard to get me figured out.

Here's what we know:

My thyroid hormones are low which is probably one of the reasons I'm a little on the chubby side. Low thyroid is very common in terriers once they get to be adults. The great news with hypothyroidism (fancy word for low thyroid hormones) is that it is very easily managed with a daily pill that is inexpensive and easily given.

I have a few not so great teeth and lots of tartar. I realize this may also cause me to not be very kissable and that is NOT ACCEPTABLE because I love to GIVE AND RECEIVE kisses. However, the Dogtor has ASSURED ME that after my dental all will be well and I will be able to claim my title of CANINE KISSING CHAMP. What a relief!

Here's What We Aren't Yet Sure About

I have some lab values that are mildly out of range. One lab draw showed elevated potassium but in a follow-up test it was normal. I had some mildly elevated liver enzymes, some elevated proteins and this made my care team give me a test for Cushing's Disease but those test results were mostly normal. So then I had an ultrasound of my abdomen which showed that I do have some enlargement of my liver, adrenal glands and gall bladder. My gall bladder is sludgy but I'm taking medicine to help with that too and if I do have stones the medicine should help them dissolve. I had some protein in my urine but that can also be caused by things like dehydration and infection so my Dogtors did additional tests that we dont have results for yet.

So for now my medical team recommends follow-up testing with my primary Vet to monitor me. It is PAWSIBLE I might develop Cushing's Disease in the future but as of now they don't feel tests show I have it and they do not recommend any type of treatment for it.

My plan for the future is to sit back, relax, soak up ALL THE LOVE in my foster home, let my Dogtors come up with my PAWFECT treatment plan and DARE TO DREAM ABOUT THAT AMAZING PERFECT PERSON who might be looking at my photo and reading my story and just knowing that I AM THEIR PERFECT FUREVER BOY!

Updated Bio 8/21/23

Elliot was going to have a dental on the 18th but his bloodwork showed some values were off and the vet didnt want to put him under anesthesia. They have tested him for Addisons Disease and Cushings disease but nothing is confirming to either one of those. So tomorrow he is having X-rays done to see if something may show there and if we cant find anything he will see a specialist so we can get to the bottom with what is the cause of his electrolytes being off. His thyroid is doing well on the medication so that is a plus and he has lost almost a pound which is great news as he is overweight and needs to work on losing a few pounds. We hope to get to the bottom of everything soon so Elliot can have his much needed dental and find a home of his own very soon.

Updated Bio 8/2/23 Hello my name is Elliot. I am looking for a new home because my family wasnt able to care for me anymore. I just turned 10 and I am a bit sad that I dont have a home of my own right now. United Yorkie Rescue has given me a place to stay and Foster mom seems pretty cool I guess. I had to go to the Dogtor for a checkup and they gave me some shots and weighed me and did some bloodwork. Turns out I am a bit overweight I need to lose about 4-5 pounds. They also discovered from my bloodwork that I have a thyroid issue and need to take medication once a day. Its fairly inexpensive and it will help me lose weight and to feel better. When I go on the 18th to get my teeth cleaned they will recheck to see how Im doing after being on the medication a few weeks. I hope a family will still want to adopt me even though I have this issue because I really am a great guy with lots of love to give. I get along well with others and Im not hyper. I promise if you take a chance on loving me I will be the bestest boy ever and give you lots of love. Please email Foster Mom with any questions or fill out an application. I cant wait to meet you!

Initial Bio 7/23/23 Elliot was surrendered along with his brother Bentley by a family who could no longer care for them. Stay tuned as we get to know him better for updates.

02/08/2023 Update: Paris Grace is a sweet girl who has had a rough time lately. First, she was abandoned at the veterinary clinic. Her owners dropped her off for boarding and never returned or responded to any method of communication. Second, she came in with a skin infection which the veterinary clinic treated. The Veterinary clinic reached out to UYR to see if we could assist this sweet girl who had no where else to go. Paris Grace is a peekapoo however UYR was willing to help even though she wasn't a yorkie, she is one of those what we call wanna be yorkies. After being in her foster home for a short period she started to chew on her tail and actually chewed through the tip of her tail foster mom to her to the veterinarian to evaluate... now here comes the third, thing after examination it was discovered that she had no feeling in her tail. The veterinarian felt like her chewing would continue due to lack of feeling in her tail, so it was decided to amputate. She has recovered nicely from this surgery. She still needs to be spayed. Due to her age, she is taking gabapentin to help with her movement, this does not slow her down. She follows foster dad all over the house. She is very loving she would let you hold her like a baby and rub her belly for hours. She is always a happy girl and looking for a home where she could receive all the love and affection due her for the rest of her days. IF you feel you would be the perfect fit for this sweet girl please fill out an application. You cant go wrong with this sweet girl.

01/18/2023 Initial Bio

Andre

Meet Andre, a handsome 2 year old, 13 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in Belton, TX. Only Texas residents will be considered.

THANK YOU TO ANDRE'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta, David Lavine, David and Diana Lavine, Brandye Randermann

10/27/23 Update: Hello Everyone..I am back with United Yorkie Rescue after my adoption last April. Unfortunately my family had some emergency issues come up and they decided it was best that I find that perfect family that wants a very loving, kissing baby that just wants to play play play with other dogs. I just crave attention so be ready for a lot of love and a shadow to follow you everywhere. I love dogs, people, car rides you name it. If it means I can be with you Im all in.

I am up to date on all vaccines, neutered, dental and I just had my bloodwork done and I am perfect. I had heartworm when I came to UYR last time but I am all well now.

I do have cataracts in both eyes so I will need surgery to remove and place with new lenses. Just like humans. But believe me that doesnt slow me down. UYR is going to look into my surgery so check back for updates.

3/23/23 Update: Andre is just the sweetest little boy ever! He likes to split his time between snuggling and playing. Andre loves cuddling up and giving kisses. He gets along fabulously with dogs of all sizes and genders but prefers bigger female dogs to play with. Andre also loves playing with cats and older children. He would probably love younger children as well as long as they are respectful. He has been neutered and began his treatment for heartworms. He has one more set of heartworm shots left and then he will be ready for his forever home.

1/9/23 Initial Bio: Sweet little baby Andre was found on the streets matted and heart worm positive. On top of that this sweet baby boy has limited vision because of congenital cataracts. Despite having limited vision, he gets around very well. Andre is very friendly and loves all sizes of dogs and also adores cats. He is house trained but usually wears a wrap to keep him from marking in the house. Andre would do very well with most families as he is the friendliest little guy around. He loves giving kisses and snuggling and is always up for car rides. A well secured fence and no pool is a must or someone who likes to go on long walks would be perfect for him. He is currently being treated for heart worms and will be neutered soon.


To date we've spent $1002.1 on Andre's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $250 in donations.

Barney
Texas
Barney

Meet Barney, a sweet 5 year old, 8 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in Cedar Park, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO BARNEY'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Karry Rogers, Robert Torres, Shawn Hudson, Phylesia Glisson, Lauren Radencic, Shawn Hudson, Debra Frare, Stephanie Slack, Wendy Henry, Yvette Vangeloff, Cheryl Scrupski

Initial Bio 9/30/23: Precious Barney came into rescue after he was surrendered from a breeder. This sweet baby was in such sad shape. He needed to stay at the vet for about 6 days while they helped him with not only double ear infections, but he had vestibular disorder which made it impossible for him to maintain balance. He was crated at the vet office, while being treated for the equilibrium balance issue. This would aid this sweet boy to keep his ears fairly still while allowing the dizziness to leave and for Barney to get back to feeling somewhat better. Not only did this sweet boy have this going on, he was also having blood in his urine which showed a large bladder stone in his urethra. As we approached day 6, we opted to complete his vetting with his neuter along with the removal of the bladder stone. Barney is now at home with his foster mom and starting all the final vetting healing along with learning what love truly means. He has an amazing foster mommy so we are certain his life will be full of many applications wanting to love on this sweet baby. Please know United Yorkie Rescue could use you help with sweet Barney's vet bill. He was one of 4 breeders brought in at the same time and this particular baby was so blessed to have had us right there to help him through this horrible mess. We thank you all for your donations. If you are not able to donate, please share his story as you never know whose heart it may touch! Bless you all!

Gracie
Texas
Gracie

Meet Gracie, a 10 pound, 10 year old sweet Yorkie girl being fostered in Cedar Park, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO GRACIE'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Nicole Atwell, Roberta Johnson, Ellen Chokreff, Elba Short, Barbara Burgess

Update 12/10/23: Gracie has recently accepted a formal position as Santas Helper and is otherwise occupying her time by playing flip-my-toys in the air, napping, getting sunshine massages, chasing mini tennis balls in the backyard, napping, and sniffing for buried treasure in the backyard. If you have a bed for her in your office, you will always have a partner with you. Moving to another room? She will be on your heels before you reach the door! Little Gracie has a sweet disposition and her goal each day is to please you. She looks forward to a short walk around the block each day and walks well on a leash. Gracies foster mom is a very amateur groomer and Gracie is very patient and calm as she allows foster mom to train on bathing, blow drying, and trimming.

Gracie is ready for her Furever Home now! If you wish to be considered for adopting Gracie, you can submit an Application for Adoption by clicking the link below OR at www.uyr.us and scroll on the left hand side to Adoption Application. There are also links below to contact Gracies foster mom with any questions or to donate funds for Gracies continued medical care (Gracie thanks you!).

Update 11/14/23: Gracie has settled into her foster home for a month now and has blossomed as she has become comfortable in her surroundings. She is a quiet little girl but she will use her voice to let you know when she wants to go outside, or play toss-and-shake my toys, or if her dinner is delayed for too long. Gracie is not a big hugger but she likes to be in the same room you are in and if you are on the couch, she wants to be butted up next to you and touching you and she will nudge your hand to remind you that you are not petting her. You never need to wonder where Gracie is just look down and there she will be! Gracie walks with a bounce in her step and a twinkle in her eyes she is a happy girl!

Gracie gets along well with her foster brother and enjoys hanging outside in the fresh air and sunshine. She wants to sleep in the bed with you and chills out in the same spot for the whole night long. Gracie made a trip to the groomer and doesnt she look beautiful in her new photos?! Gracie also met with the vet and lost all of her remaining teeth but dont feel sad for her about that because her mouth feels so much better now! Gracie was also diagnosed with a low grade mammary gland carcinoma which will require medication and monitoring for her lifetime. UYR will place an emphasis in reviewing veterinarian records because we want to ensure that if you have, or have had, other pets, that they have received adequate vetting services during their lifetime(s); we believe this demonstrates that you will provide the best healthy atmosphere for little Gracie as well.

If you wish to be considered for adopting Gracie, you can submit an Application for Adoption by clicking the link below OR at www.uyr.us and scroll on the left hand side to Adoption Application. There are also links below to contact Gracies foster mom with any questions or to donate funds for Gracies continued care (Gracie thanks you!).

Initial Bio 10/11/23: Meet Gracie, a 10 pound, 10 year old sweetie pie! Before coming to UYR, Gracie had lived in the same family home since she was a baby but unfortunately, her owner's health would no longer allow her to receive the care that she needed so she came to live with foster mom and two other little yorkie friends in hopes of finding her Furever Home. Gracie has house manners and she is potty trained. Have a little bell by the door? Shell ring it to alert you or will tell you when she wants to go outside for a break. Gracie likes to snuggle and cuddle never wanting to be too far from Her Person. She can shake paws but that is the limit of tricks in her bag for now however she is very smart so if you want to teach her more tricks (treats required!) she will likely catch on quickly. Gracie likes to play fetch with her toys but her favorite thing to do is curl up with you and watch your favorite tv shows oh, and nap!

Gracie will be seen by the vet soon to make sure that she is current on all vaccinations and that all of her medical needs are met. The UYR webpage has adoption applications available for submission online if you are interested in linking hearts with this sweetheart and receiving all of the love that she has to give forever and ever!

Gracies foster mom wants you to know that Gracie and all of her friends at UYR receive awesome medical care but it can be quite expensive. If you are able to help, please use the Donate Button below her profile (or on the main web page) to make a donation. It takes a village! Thank you so much!

Joe Joe

Meet Joe Jo, a precious 2 year old,9 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in McKinney, TX. Only TX applicants will be considered.

THANK YO TO JOE JOE'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Shawn Hudson, David and Diana Lavine, David and Diana Lavine

Update 9/18/23: Oh good gravy, it has been a long while since I have been able to get FM to update my biography. I think the hot Texas summer fried her brain and she just did not hear me. She and I both apologize that everyone had to wait so long to hear about me.

Well as you know I became a daddy and GiGi informed me she wanted to be a single mother. I decided though that I could help her socialize our baby girl. I was a very gentle daddy while playing with her. I taught her a little about playing with each other, toys, play chase outside and rough house inside. FM said I was a very good Daddy to the puppy.

In the past few months my true personality is shining through. I am a very HAPPY boy all the time. I wake up happy, happy all day until it is sleepy time. I get to sleep anywhere I like and I like people beds, doggie beds, pillows on top of doggie crates, the couch, loveseat and recliner here. I still do not like crates. I can be snuggly too and I love to give out kisses. I LOVE all kinds of toys and Nyla bones. I do not deconstruct plush toys but do like to steal them from the other dogs. That is my mission sometimes to make sure I have all the toys. I do not take all of them out of the toy box these days and just pick out a few every day to play with. I do not play with items I should not like shoes. I will just steal some things and put them in the toy box and usually it is FMoms bandanas and socks. I am a fabulous eater and I take treats from you gently but I will drop it and watch to see if the other dogs here do not want their cookie and try and steal it until FM tells me to go eat my own cookie. I love going outside (when it is not scorching hot) and explore the yard, chase bugs, try and catch grasshoppers and fireflies when they were in season. I am quite comical to watch especially when I get the zoomies outside and inside too. You see I have some fast legs and am quick. I am still not to comfortable with a harness and leash and that is something we are working on but it has been too hot to really do some lead walking. The weather is breaking so maybe I will get to walk in our very rural neighborhood. I am not fully potty trained and we are still working on that so I still wear those belly band fashion accessories inside the house. Sometimes the band is wet and sometimes it is not. I do wait at the door when I come in from outside so you can band me up. I am an easy going guy when it comes to baths. I do not love them but I do not hate and fight them either. The groomer I went to a while back said that I was a dream to groom, that I just let her do her job and I did not fight anything she did. I am a good guy too when you leave for errands. I just take a nap and wait until you get back home. I will always be the first one to greet you at the door and if you bring bags home I will want to stick my nose in it to see if you got anything for us dogs but will not take anything out of the bags even if it is a Ribeye steak.

I like to be in the middle of anything and everything as I do not want to miss out on anything these days. FM calls me bulldozer because of that. Because I am still young I still do have some puppy energy in me but I am smart and learn quickly. Like when it is supper time and I see FM start her routine at supper time to feed everyone. I guess I should be patient cuz she makes us some tasty eats. I like checking all the other bowls out for leftovers. Unfortunately everyone finishes everything. I do bark at door knocks, door bells and when the other pups bark or if I want your attention. Guess what? I talk too. Sometimes it is garbled cuz I am trying to talk with a Nylabone in my mouth. I can get silly goofy sometimes but that is part of my adorable personality. I am very affectionate and give sweet soft kisses.

So let us update everyone one me these days. I weigh in at 10.4 lbs. I am a Yorkie blend of some sort. FM thinks maybe a blond yorkie and schnauzer but what does she know other than loving and caring about us dogs. I got that wiry kind of hair and scruffy look kinda like Tramp in Lady and the Tramp. I have my very own microchip, neutered, UTD on all vaccinations and tested heartworm negative so I take these yummy treats called Heartguard for heartworms and Nextguard for parasite, fleas and ticks.

Now for what I want in a home. DO YOU HAVE KIDS? I would be a great dog for a child(ren)to grow up with due to I am such a happy carefree guy and I love to play and stay active. I would like my little buddies to be 10 or older. I would also be a great friend to a single retired person(s) because I know that I am so adaptable to everything. Are you an active kind of person cuz I know I would be a great companion to them and if you like to jog I bet I can do at least one mile as long as it is on grass in the summer. I probably would chase cats so maybe no cats. Doggie siblings would be cool but not a priority. A good secure fenced in back yard would be wonderful because I do like to sunbathe, explore, chase bugs, etc. it would be great if my hooman(s) are home most of the time to continue my potty training and teach me some tricks so I do not get lonesome especially if I will not have fur sibling(s) to play and nap with while you are away for long hours.

I am ready for you to come get me and bring me home. My adoption fee is $900. So if you think you are the absolute perfect match for a sweet young guy with tons of personality please submit an application. You will find a direct link to my own application at the bottom of my biography. You can email Foster Mom at stickhors@gmail.com with any and all questions.

You will also find a PayPal donation link at the end also. United Yorkie Rescue has had several littles that they have rescued that have medical bills in the thousands and that is because they rarely say no to any poor baby that needs help. They just want to fix them all and find them their furever homes and will do everything in their power to help. So please if you have the means to donate please do so. All donations go towards vetting bills of our dogs unless you have noted a particular dog you are donating too. That way United Yorkie can continue with its mission of saving, helping and finding great homes for the littles that were forgotten or given no health care in their lives or just tossed and dumped in the streets to fend for themselves. We appreciate each and every donation and Thank You in advance for your generous and kinds hearts helping United Yorkie Rescue.

See ya in the future for another pupdate.

Update 6/27/23: It is that time for me to let cha know what is current in my life. I guess the biggest news is that I have hung up my Wedding Tuxedo. GiGi has informed me that she wants to be a single Mom. Oh well, what can you do?

So now Foster Mom calls me the Lone Wolf because no one here wants to play with me. My last playing buddy got adopted so I decided that I can play by myself because there are lots of toys here to play with. I now have 2 spots that I like to move them to so FM has 2 piles to put back in the toy box. My record is 31 toys in my 2 piles. I get toy zoomies in the house and zoomie zoomies outside and boy can I run fast. I still try and play with the other dogs but the pups just ignore me. I am almost house trained but I still tinkle in my Designer fashion accessory called the belly band. I walk ok on a lease but still sometimes fight it. I don't know if I like cats but maybe with a slow introduction I would be ok. No children under 13 please. I still act like a bulldozer and have to be wherever anyone is getting attention and I just bulldoze my way in there until I am in the front of the group. I like sleeping on the people bed, on the doggie beds, the couch and loveseat, the recliner and the floor. I am just an all over the place sleeper. I am not fond of crates. I am a good guy when the hoomans leave. We all get the run of most of the home. I usually just take a nap until they come home. I am always the first one to let them know that I am glad they are home. Sometimes FM will leave her bandana where I can snatch them and I take them to my toy pile. I really do not chew on things I should not be chewing on. I love love love being in the backyard and try and catch the grasshoppers and the occasional fly in the house so if you have a secure backyard that would be the bestest. I think I would be fine as an only dog because I am affectionate to the hoomans here or I can be a dog that lives with a fur sibling. I would like my hooman(s) home most of the time so they can continue with my potty training. I like to cuddle and snuggle especially when FM uses that "I should not be doing that" voice because I am trying to tell her I am sorry. I am inquisitive and will beat you to the kitchen if you are going that direction.

I am a Yorkie blend of some sort. Around 2 years young, 9.8 pounds, neutered, microchipped. UTD on all of my necessary shots, tested Heartworm negative and I get these tasty things called Heartguard and Nexguard every month. My adoption fee is $900. I am ready for you to come love me fur furever so if you think you and your home sounds like an awesome match please submit an application in the link you will find below this update. If you have questions you can always email FM at stickhors@gmail.com too.

You will also find a PayPal donation button that you can donate to the UYR organization if you able to. Those donations help them help guys like me find loving homes. The money goes towards vetting all dogs and to our "Forever Ours" pups. UYR will try and fix us all but in case one of us is not a good candidate for adoption due to medical requirements they promise to love and take great care of those babies until it is time to trot to Rainbow Bridge and find all their friends there. We truly do appreciate each and every donation that is given.

Update 5/9/23: Hey there everyone, It has been a while since I've written anything about myself so here is what has been going on. I moved to McKinney, Texas and have new foster pawrents and their dogs as buddies. Foster Mom has been checking me out so she gets to know me better but I can tell you some things about me. I am about 2 years old, a yorkie blend and I have really long legs and my hair is kinda curly and rough. I was a breeder dump and UYR rescued me and my girlfriend the day we got dumped at a kill shelter or we would have been euthanized if they didn't come save us. I'm so happy they saved us because GiGi is pregnant and it would have been very sad because I want to see my offspring. Since my rescue on April 1, 2023 I have been microchipped, had all my immunizations, tested negative for heartworms, am on heartworm and flea/tick preventative and I tested negative for parasites. I also got neutered so no more making more puppies for me.

I weighed in at 10 pounds May 6th but probably could still gain another pound or two because FM says I still feel a little bony. I am not 100% house trained but am pretty close. Sometimes I go to the door but that is because GiGi is there. So I wear those fashion statement things called belly bands. Sometimes they are wet but lately more often dry than wet because I go outside pretty often. I recently got groomed and the groomer said I was a good boy. FM is going to give me a bath this week so we will see how I act about that.

I am a little lover boy and just love to shower you with kisses but I also love my girlfriend and I am usually by her side especially when we nap and go to sleep at night. I love toys and if you let me I will move a lot of them to one certain location. FM has not figured out that I want her to move the toy box to the spot where I want it because it will be in the way of everyone. She keeps moving them back to the toy box and I keep moving them to my spot. I call it the war of the toys game.

FM wants me to tell you that because I was a breeder boy and that I am in love with GiGi that we might need to be adopted together. This status might change but we are not sure yet. I will also need my future prospective adopter to please be someone who is home all the time, well except to do the errands like going to the pet store to get me some nutritious food, treats and toys! I promise to reward my future hoomans with my undying love fur furever. Did you know that we are amazing babies to own as I just want to show you how much I appreciate you giving me my furever home and your furever love. I already show FM how much I love her everyday as I become more comfortable in my new foster home.

I will soon tell her exactly what I want in my furever home and hoomans but I do know this,,,I need a back yard to run in and sun in and I like to explore because all of this new life I am learning is such a wonderful thing to experience and explore. I love nice comfy dog beds or people beds are nice and soft too.

Foster Mom is accepting applications at this time but it is unclear when I will begin my serious search for my future home as it is still undecided if I will need to be adopted with GiGi after she has her babies. You can reach FM with any questions at stickhors@gmail.com

Initial Bio 4/2/23: Joe Joe came into rescue as a breeder dump at the shelter! We were contacted about Joe Joe and his "wife" Gigi as the shelter was a kill shelter and there was zero room and they were to be euthanized that day. Immediately one of our amazing fosters rushed to bring these babies home to safety...sooo here he is!

Joe Joe is an adorable 2yr old who weighs maybe 8-9lbs. He is in immediate need of a neuter of course, along with rabies, 4DX for heartworm and tick borne diseases, bordetella, fecal and blood work. He along with Gigi will see the vet on Tuesday. His neuter is set for Wednesday.

Joe Joe was very scared at first but is coming around slowly, He does love to give kisses and when you hold him he hugs your neck which is the sweetest! Joe Joe also is quite in "love" at the moment with his Gigi, but his romancing days are soon to be over on Wednesday. Thank goodness for diapers and belly bands!

Being that Joe Joe was a breeder, again we ask that this baby's prospective adopter please be at home most of the time. He deserves that one on one so he can become the best of himself. These babies make the most amazing babies to own as they just love "love" that they have missed. He already loves human touch and being held in your arms.

If you feel you have the home and the love to give this little guy, please fill out the application below. Foster mom can also be reached at the email address below. I look forward to hearing from you!


To date we've spent $587.66 on Joe Joe's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $145 in donations.

Meet Max, a handsome 4 year old, 14 pound Yorkie mix who is being fostered in Azle, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

Update 10/2/23: Max is still looking for his forever family. He is just a love bug!!! As he settled into his foster home, he is so much more than just another handsome face! This boy needs an active family! He loves water, running after balls, playing with tug toys and loves playing with his foster brothers and sisters. He really needs another dog that he can play with. He would do well with older children but yet at night, he wants to cuddle in foster moms lap and if her lap is not available, he will take foster dads lap. He travels well and is just such a happy, happy boy. If you have the energy and love for this guy, please apply at uyr.us.

Initial Bio 8/19/23: Meet sweet, sweet Max. Max is a 4 year old, 14 pound Yorkie mix. Max is healthy with a little anxiety around new people and other dogs. He is still adjusting and a little shy to the new people he meets. He gives a soft growl until you finally sit but once he knows you and is comfortable, wow! What a personality!!! This guy sticks close to foster mom and after a couple of days he began to warm up to foster dad and the other doggies! He is completely potty trained and only wants to please his people. He is a cuddle bug with lots an lots of love to give! He loves running in the yard at his foster home and loves to play with toys. This spunky little guy needs a calm home. Small children would not be appropriate for this guy. He needs a home where he gets lots of attention and patience from his family. It will take about a week for this guy to adjust but the longer he is with the family, the more his spunky personality comes out.

If you think you can give Max the home he needs, please go to UYR.us and fill out an application.

Update 11/6/23: United Yorkie Rescue's sweet Pablo saw the Dr. last week. Sadly, this little one had a pretty significant seizure that was lasting over 30 minutes and he looked so confused and distressed. We immediately went into a quiet room where I just held him and finally it stopped. Within a little time, Pablo was once again off playing and able to be himself again. After the vet visit, we have once again raised his seizure meds dose. He has a few very short moments still of "shakes" coming off and on, but we are watching to see that we have reached the correct dose for now. This little one is a work in progress but we are here to see him through! Please keep this little boy in your prayers as we go through this adjustment once again. Bless you all as always for all you do for our sweet babies!

Update 10/5/23: As we all know this little man is just adorable! He continues to thrive in the foster home but he must be watched at all times. As you all may know, Pablo is currently on medications to continue to keep his seizures under control due to his near death from Babesiosis, a tick-borne disease. We can also see when his brain is having a misfire because his eyes will change and a slow growl will begin and then he will go after the nearest baby near him. My home is full of babies that are very passive, which is great as they just continue moving on, with their heads down, trying to walk away. I swoop him up and redirect him immediately to his toys, and it's as if nothing had ever occurred. It is scary to think what has happened to his little brain during this horrible illness, but I know he is safe and his home is safe which gives me peace. We are not certain to date what his adoption status will be as we are waiting for the meds to become a stable dose, while we watch to see if there are any new brain misfires that cause additional issues.

Please continue to watch updates, not just on Pablo, but on all of our babies. These littles are blessed to have you either as adopters, donors which allow us to save these babies, or just one that shares these babies stories for us. Thank you all and bless you!

Update 8/4/23: Hi all of our pawsome friends!! I wanted to let you know a little bit about Pablo and how he is faring with his new meds. As you might have seen or know from his history, Pablo was at near death when we rescued him. He was flown here to me in Texas after the vets in California could not find answers to his illness. He was immediately taken to the ER close to me to get stabilized and I started my own search. I reached out to his prior owner and it was discovered that he had a strange tick on him when she brought him home. Later, another foster contacted me about Pablo's story mimicking her prior baby and it was found that she had Babesiosis or the tick borne disease Babesia. There are only 2 meds that treat this disease, and she happened to have the magic med that was desperately needed. Needless to say, we contacted her vet and added this antibiotic to his regimen of meds. The rest has brought us to where we are today!

After months of treatment and about 19K in medical costs, Pablo's blood is now normal. What we have remaining are seizures that are being controlled with medication as of today. We had an increase in his meds last month due to break- through seizures. This month we have had a few break throughs, but the household knows what to do to help this little boy through those scary times.

Pablo is a precious little boy that will need a little more time before we decide to allow adoption. He has a follow up visit this upcoming month and we will see what direction his vet might suggest after reviewing his meds and bloodwork.

What I would ask during this time is for our family and friends to please remember our medical babies. All of our babies come to us with many special needs. If were not for all of you, babies such as Pablo would not have our care and an outcome for a life. We are blessed by those of you who donate and/or share our little stories. Donations can always be made here at www.uyr.us by clicking the YELLOW button on the home page. There is also an address at the bottom in case you would like to mail in your donation. Trust me...nothing is too little when it comes to saving these lives. As always, we say ... bless you all and thank you.

Update 6/20/23: Pablo is now on a strict 3 times a day daily regimen of meds for his seizures. We were not seeing much of a difference at first, but we are seeing the meds starting to work better as time goes on. We have had a few issues this past weekend. He was just sitting on the floor in my room, and you could tell he just was not present, and he was not responding to my calls. After picking him up and gently rubbing his head and ears, I could feel his body slowly stopping with the jerking motions and he slowly buried his head under my arm. I think these seizures may give him headaches or maybe the lights affect him.Going into the closet or burying his head is what he tends to do during some of these. He is still a work in progress to learn, but we are learning, and we hope that in time, we reach an outcome that is the absolute best for this little boy's life.

Please remember as always, that we at United Yorkie Rescue have quite a few medically challenged babies. Your donations are so welcomed and such a blessing for these littles. If you are able, we appreciate your donation, and if it's not possible, please share our stories. Thank you all and bless you for loving our little ones!

Update 5/27/23: Pablo has been reviewed by the vet and we are still on observation for neurological disorders. This little one has beat death but the after effects have been arising. The vet says he acts as if he has had a mild case of hydrocephalus. Pablo is very hyper sensitive to touch. He has an unusual gait as well. He does have tics as he will turn his head to the side as if he is trying to bite at something that is not there. He also can be doing something such as eating and in a blink, start growling then run towards any dog whether they are close by or far away. He truy does not mean to do that because I can pick him up and in mid air he will come out of this anger. I immediately take him to his toys and he's just as happy as can be. Even while sleeping he will suddenly growl and attack while he sleeps under the covers. I quietly tell him it's ok, and put my hand on his back and he falls sound asleep again. Luckily all his fur siblings know him and leave him to himself. It's as if they are in tune to his sudden outbursts. We are trying NOT to have to use medication at this moment as he just turned a year old in February. As Pablo has been a miracle baby and fought hard to live for months since a few weeks old, I pray these episodes will pass or resolve in time. I pray we don't see this as just the beginning of behavior changes and he overcomes what life dealt him in his early growth. Pablo is just adorable and he can also be so loving and playful as he's going through his puppy year . UYR has spent a little over $19K for his care. Please keep this angel in your prayers and please please donate, as we have so many in need in our rescue. We love you all and thank you for loving this little baby!!

Update 5/1/23: Time to give an update on this sweet baby! Sweet Pablo is still thriving in our care. Pablo (whom we call Axel) came into our rescue as a baby in critical care. Going back in his history from a puppy, we could only surmise that he had come into the owners home with a tick borne illness, which we came to know as Babesiosis. He suffered high fevers, not able to stand or eat or thrive. He has received over 18K in medical care over the course of his short little life. This has left Pablo with some neuro deficits. He does have times of head and body shakes, he is very hypersensitive to touch and has moments of slight seizures. We are not yet at the point of using seizure meds as we are monitoring those issues for the time being. He is young so we maintain hope that maybe over time this will resolve or we may see increases...so we are on "Pablo time" for now.

Pablo is closely monitored by the foster mom and we most definitely stay in touch with the vet on his needs. He will NEVER EVER be able to have the Leptospirosis vaccine so keeping him in areas where wildlife is limited is also a plus in my home.

Other than medical Pablo is a happy little "terrorist" as we lovingly call him. He is a total lap of love but if you knock on the door or come into you will hear him growling all the way to greet you . He is absolutely a total lover of stuffed toys and loves to play all day.

We always ask that you keep in mind the amount of medical care we offer to give these babies for their care. You are such a big part of the reason why we are able to help these medically challenged babies, such as this little "miracle baby" as the doctors call him. We are not certain if we will be able to adopt Pablo at this time, but please, keep our babies in your hearts and prayers and if you are able, and donate or share their stories so others can see what we are able to do because of you!

Update 3/26/23: I thought I might update everyone regarding precious little 6lb United Yorkie Rescue Pablo. We saw the vet this week and completed his last immunizations with rabies being the last. Pablo did fairly well these past few days. He's been a little under the weather... but all in all is doing ok.

The vet had noticed that Pablo has a quirky little walk and he knows he is very hypersensitive to touch and very jerky in his response. He did see a neuro deficit. He mentioned that possibly he may have had hydrocephalus or even meningitis during his deadly illness when he came into rescue. Pablo does continue to have head shakes or mild focal seizures. We may visit putting him on Keppra for those. He of course continues to play as a little yr old puppy would normally and is just a love bug as well. We are not going to subject him to any more testing. We think at this moment this is the result of whatever tried to take Pablo's life when he came into rescue months ago so so ill. You can follow Pablo's little story and our other babies at www.uyr.us in the Looking for Love section.

Update 2/14/23: Precious Pablo had a great visit with the Internal Medicine Dept. We finally have normal blood work values since November of last year and we also had an ultrasound which shows this baby's insides are no longer diseased and irritated! He does have some "deformities" to his kidneys in the structure, but we do not know if this was due to his horrific infection or a possible birth deficit, as this was noticed upon his first illness when he was with his owner. We just started his immunizations this week, but he will NEVER receive a leptospirosis vaccine due to having such a horrible tick borne bacterial infection he fought off all of these months. In another 2 weeks, he will go back for his rabies and a second set of DHPP...which I utterly dread.. He did react slightly with some head jerking and hypersensitivity to touch after these 1st vaccines, but this foster mom watched him like a hawk.

Pablo's story is long. As a sweet little cuddly puppy, he has fought for months to come to this day! The rescue has spent over 17K to help him see this day. I am so blessed to be a part of such an amazing rescue where we "truly rescue" those babies in such need with big hearts. The most important part of our rescue is our amazing base of followers and donors that help us to make sure each of these babies get their happily ever after. Pablo was a dying 6mth old puppy when his journey first began, and here we are approaching his 1yr Birthday on the 31st and how blessed is he!! Thank you everyone for making his life a purpose. Please donate to www.uyr.us so that we can continue this journey as we have so many littles in need Bless you and thank you! Happy Valentines Pablo and you amazing donors, family, and friends.

Update 1/22/23: Wanted to give you all an update regarding our little 5lb Pablo. We have been on a roller coaster, that's for sure and its taken this long to get some results. Thus sweet baby finally has a downward spiral of his high WBC and RBC's. Although his WBC is still slightly elevated, we are at 18,000!!! That's a far cry from 85,000 when normal range is up to 12,000 for some labs. His RBC is also normalizing along with every value on this baby's panel. Question is ... what was it? We are assuming he was infested with a very bad parasitic bacteria. He had been in California originally and under ER care where he received numerous antibiotics, tests of every kind, transfusions etc., then was sent here for the specialist and the treatment for one of the parasites "babesia". He has since been on a very specific medications that is used to treat MRSP. Pablo had developed a rare skin infection that was antibiotic resistant (MRSP). We immediately cultured that and sent it to labs so they could tell us which antibiotic could work against that infection. He is on his 3rd week of that antibiotic and his skin looks so much better. One thing that was discovered during all of this unknown illness was his insides were very irritated. He did start with a bout of pancreatitis which we resolved at first but his gut looked very angry. We will now address that to see if this has resolved since he has finally made a turn in the right direction. We will see Internal Medicine Specialist the beginning of next month for ultrasounds etc. For those of you that have followed this 10mth old 4lb adorable puppy, we have spent close to $17,000 for his care. We appreciate all of you who have helped us with his care, but I will ask again, that if you can, please donate towards Pablo or any of our sweet babies. We recently brought in about 20 breeder release babies from the Texas and Oklahoma area so any donation is so much appreciated as we need to vet these babies as well.

Pablo is just a very playful adorable puppy. He loves his squeaky stuffed toys and of course his clothes! He is also very very smart!! When I take one off his PJ's I need to have another one ready and he knows when I do the laundry which ones are his LOL. He may be just a little spoiled but he has earned every hug and kiss he gets.

Please donate at www.uyr.us if possible. If a donation is not possible, please share his story as you never know who maybe able to help. Bless you all for loving our babies and thank you for all you do!

Rico

Meet Rico, a handsome 3 year old 9 lb Yorkie boy being fostered in Rhome, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO RICO'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sarhai Serrano

Update 11/29/23: My name is Rico and I’m a sweet baby Yorkie with a love for treats and designer accessories. Follow me for daily fashion inspiration and cuteness overload! When I’m not trying on clothes, jewelry or being adored, I take my job of loving my foster family very seriously. I like to be on the go and hang out wherever my foster mom goes! I love to go for walks, hiking, swimming, chasing ducks or to brunch and have my very own puppy purse to chill in.

My ideal home would be an active home under 60 with no kids under 12 or kitties, that can promise me the next 10+ years of love. I’m only 2 years old and in perfect health and I’m still very much a puppy! However, my original owner passed away so having a home love me for the rest of my life is very important to me. After my original owner passed away I went to live with three young kids and I was traumatized so I do not like young children. I appreciate when older kiddo’s are respectful of my space and I will be respectful of them. My foster mom says the more active I am the less trouble I get into hehe. I’m super, super smart and have already learned sit, lay down and I’m an expert on my leash especially for treats!

I’m the King of the castle in my foster home, and because in my previous life I had to protect what was mine from other dogs and kids, sometimes I fiercely guard random objects, so my new home would have to continue to work on that with me. Other than that I’m a loveee bug, a Velcro pup and a silly, silly spoiled rotten little boy! People say you can’t buy love, but you CAN adopt me ❤️ I can’t wait to find my furever home, I have so much love to give!!! I was born in 2017, weigh 8 pounds and am currently located in a foster home.

Initial Bio 10/27/23: My name is Rico. I am 3 years old and am a lovable 9 lbs. I am going to share my story and when I am done I hope you will fall in love with me. I am with an amazing foster family who is giving me so much love but I know my furever family is waiting for me. I spent my first 3 years with a warm sweet lady that could no longer care for me so her family was kind enough to bring me to their home for a while where we all found that the time had come to find my future life and family. I went from 1 person to 3 children, an apartment, missed having a yard, and shared love with another baby dog.

I follow foster mom everywhere, constantly trying to be in her lap, and hoping she will take me along with the family to brunch, go for walks and car rides. I have learned to sit, lay down and they have me in training to roll over (of course its for the treats) but I am berry berry smart.

Im sure you can tell that I love designer clothes so you can get new sweaters, T-shirts or whatever you think will keep me handsome. I love my foster dad and 9 year old brother and take my job of being a love bug very seriously. I am waiting for my first vet visit so I can get caught up on my vaccines and get neutered.

I have so much love to giveIf you think I would be a perfect boy for your family please complete an application below.

Stella

Stella P

Meet Stella P, a beautiful blonde and silver gray Yorkie girl 8 years young and only 4 pounds. She is being fostered in Leander, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO STELLA P'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta, Barbara Burgess, Heidi White

Initial Bio 11/15/23: Hello again UYR Friends and Family I hope this message finds you well. I am very happy to have the opportunity to introduce one of the newest additions to the United Yorkie Rescue Family, Stella.

Stella is a beautiful four pound, female yorkie that is eight years young.

Stella was surrendered by her owners due to them not being able to care for her any longer. Unfortunately, it appears that Stella has suffered significant neglect in her lifetime, however thanks to UYR those days are over!

The day after Stella was surrendered, UYR got her in to see one of our amazing vets where she spent the day being thoroughly evaluated including an ultrasound to check for bladder stones. Stella received much needed treatment for a terrible ingrown toenail, an eye infection, urinary tract infection, and skin infection. The following day, after a good night's rest, Stella went back to the dogtor's office for a much needed dental cleaning.

Stella's foster parents are still getting to know her but say that so far she has been very well behaved, is as sweet as can be, and really likes car rides. Stella appears to be puppy pad trained and will also go potty outside when taken out. Stay tuned for updates as we get to know tiny Stella better.

If you have any questions or would like more information about Stella please contact her fosters at UYRYorkieLoveTX@Yahoo.com. Due to her tiny size, homes with small children would probably not be a good fit for Stella.


To date we've spent $1180.23 on Stella P's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $225 in donations.

Tater

Tater
Texas
Tater TX

Meet Tater, a handsome 2 year old, 3 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in McKinney, TX. TATER HAS SO MANY ADOPTION APPLICATIONS AT THIS TIME SO WE WILL NOT BE ACCEPTING NEW APPLICANTS.

<

THANK YOU TO TATER'S RESCUE ANGELS!

David and Diana Lavine

Update 10/2/23: Well Tater is still so shy he asked me to do his Pupdate. He went to the Dogter last week and Dr. Johnson started his shots. Because he is so little and underweight she wanted to do these with time in between the immunizations. We have noticed that he is underweight so we need to pump him up a little bit before she will consider giving him a neuter, microchip and give him a dental. Right now we are getting all the parasites out of his system. She wants a little fat on this guy. He is just very slowly breaking out of his shell. He decided after 5 days here it was ok to walk on the concrete and each day that passes he walks a little more. He even put his itty bitty paws on the grass like for a millisecond. He is learning his name and we get some tail wags and a smile every now and again. He does love his ears scratched and lets you give him pets on his skinny very boney body.

Being a breeder surrender and a designer style breed called a Stardust Yorkie he still needs to be socialized, learn leash and lead manners, potty training and that toys are fun and not to be scared of. I try and do all of the above slowly and at his pace as this and everything else is foreign and new to him. I know that with time this guy will just blossom into your very best friend.

So as of now this is what we are looking for in his future home. Because he is so tiny any children will need to be at least 12 years old. He does not require a back yard but it would be nice to have one to get his sun and future zoomies on but also needs to be very secure as I believe when he decides to dog it his energetic happy personality will just amaze us all. A stay at home parent would be best so he can continue to learn his potty and leash manners. He will require grooming every 4-6 weeks and brushing on a daily basis. We still do not know if he is barky or not but he did bark at a dog on the TV once, so maybe he would like to be your TV watching buddy.

When he is fully vetted we will find his future furever hoomans. He will be neutered, UTD on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped. Luckily he tested Heartworm negative so he is now on Heartworm and flea and tick preventative. If you believe you have the home this little guy truly deserves please submit an application and there is a link at the bottom of our UYR page just for him. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me via email.

On another important note. UYR has taken several expensive medical care babies this year to the tune of 10s of thousands of dollars with some of the pups they have lovingly rescued. We would like to ask you that if you have a few dollars that you could share with us to help those babies with their medical care costs we all would be so very Thankful and appreciative for your generous and kind hearts. We rely on our wonderful UYR family and friends for donations towards those babies care. Thank you so much for considering a donation. We truly appreciate all of you

Initial Bio 9/22/23: Hello United Yorkie Rescue family and friends!

My name is Tater and I am one of the fortunate fabulous 5 that were rescued from a breeder surrender. We were all so ecstatic that UYR had room and was able to find Foster Families for us.

I landed at Stickhorse Ranch here in McKinney. Foster Mom doesnt know much about me other than the breeder said I was 2-3 years old. They told her that I am a Stardust Yorkie whatever that is. I weighed in at 3.4 pounds and everything is so scary right now. FM tells me that I will have my very own Cinderfella Fairy Tale ending in the future and I just do not know what she means by that. I guess time will tell.

So watch for an updated biography in the near future as we all figure each other out. You can email FM at stickhors@gmail with any questions.

Tucker
Texas
Tucker

Little Tucker is a courtesy posting from Round Rock, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered for this special little boy.

Initial Bio 11/7/23: Precious Tucker initially came into UYR as a victim of severe abuse. It was the second time I had seen the evil that a man could do when he rages and this 9 month old puppy was his whipping post. We healed his broken body and helped him emotionally then found an amazing adopter for this little one. As life went on, children came into the life of this loving couple. Early life with the baby was never an issue, but as the baby grew into a toddler, sweet Tucker grew fearful due to the trauma he had received at his young age. The owner, who loves Tucker, knows in her heart it is best to place him with another...this is such an amazing act of love. We are seeking to find the perfect home for Tucker and this one will be his forever. I am asking for some strict requirements, because Tucker deserves to have his furever mommy and daddy. He is just as sweet as molasses and adorable to boot so be ready to get the best love of your life.

IF you can offer this baby a home without young children, IF you can offer this baby a home where you can be present to show him love and the security he requires and IF you can allow him to be your one and only, then you need to apply. The application is attached below. This baby will love you unconditionally and be your best best love bug if you allow this to happen in your life. Tucker is a little tripod, as he lost one of his legs due to the abuse he received from the previous ex fiancee. I picked him up out of his crying mommy's arms about 3.5yrs ago as she fled for safety for herself and her newborn. Tucker was able to give and always receive love with his new mommy and daddy for 3 plus years, but she can see the toddler stage is NOT a good emotional state for Tucker, so here we are! Tucker loved everyone and everything and will continue with this as we find his best forever. I look forward to receiving your application and you may also email me with any questions you may have.

Ollie

Meet Ollie, a handsome 10 month old, 6lb Yorkie being fostered in Madison, WI. Only applicants within a 75 mile radius of foster home will be considered.

THANK YOU TO OLLIE'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta

Update 11/25/23: Ollie has settled into his foster home quite well and is getting along with the other dogs in the house. He is still a puppy and does act as such!! Ollie’s initial vet visit was terrific! The doctor gave him a complete checkup: heart & lungs, teeth, joints, eyes & ears and some blood work. She said he is a good size for his age and doing well. He does have a few baby teeth that need to come out along with getting his neuter, both of these scheduled for December. Once Ollie recovers from these procedures his foster mom will start considering when he will be ready for adoption.

Please consider donating to help with the costs of Ollie’s upcoming vet visits.

Initial Bio 11/13/23: Ollie came to the rescue as an owner surrender due to financial issues. He had to be shaved due to severe mats in his hair but he handled the grooming like a champ and is so happy now. He is getting along well with his foster brother and sister but we need to continue monitoring his socialization with other dogs. He came from a home with children and got along with them as well. He has had a couple of accidents in the house but for the most part is potty-trained. Ollie loves to go for walks but pulls hard on the leash. He does rush the door when he sees the leash so he needs to be in a safe area that he cant get outside as he could be a runner. Ollie has not been neutered so adoption will not happen until this is taken care of.

Ollie has never been to the vet and has his first visit in a couple of days. Until we know that all is well WE WILL NOT BE ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR ADOPTION.


To date we've spent $195.48 on Ollie's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $25 in donations.
