Here's what the humans have to say about me:
ADOPTION and FOSTER forms can be printed from our website: wrenyorkierescue.org PLEASE SUBMIT APPLICATION FORM before emailing. Soon after we receive your completed paperwork, we will chat and help you determine which dog[s] you and your family members want to interview at your home. We will schedule a convenient visit time [about an hour, sometimes longer] so the potential new family member[s] and you can relax and get to know each other. If all goes well, you can expect to begin your 'honeymoon' period. We will consider you a FOSTER during this period. After a few weeks, you will know if your routine and expectations match the dog's needs and requirements. If so, we will draw up an adoption contract for your new family member.
AUGUST 2017: Miss Corky is a lot like Eartha Kitt in that you'd never believe her age looking at her! This 9# 12-yr-old is a ball of energy until her person settles in to sleep or watch TV. Then she becomes an instant lap-warmer. She fully expects to sleep in her person's bed and is extremely loyal and affectionate. A bit of an Alpha dog, Corky would prefer to be the only dog in her "pack" but loves to play with other dogs and kids. She has outlived previous owners, so don't hesitate to adopt this "old" dog who will keep you on your toes during walks. Corky is a champion jumper and climber, so your fencing needs to be high and smooth. She also will pee on a wee pad in the bathroom every time her human sits down in that room!
