My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

PLEASE READ: To be considered, please complete the online adoption application on our website at http://www.floridayorkierescue.com

Puff; a gorgeous Maltese, weighs 8 lbs. and is 12 years old. His owner died. He was a very spoiled little boy. His hair is gorgeous. Unfortunately he lost all of his teeth with age but does handle tiny kibble and soft food exceptionally well. He is up to date on Rabies vaccination and has been neutered and microchipped. He does have a very tiny growth on his eyelid that does not seem to be a problem for him.

He is a quiet boy and a hugger. He is not housebroken and never was as he originally came from a breeding kennel. The previous owner used disposable belly wraps and they are exceptionally easy to use. He will poop outside or on the pee wee pads if he is confined. He will not tolerate a crate. He tolerates other dogs just fine but is not a dog that plays with toys.

More about this rescue

The mission of Florida Yorkie Rescue is to rescue Yorkies, Yorkie mixes and other small breeds regardless of age or additional handicaps that may be associated with aging or birth defects. We never discriminate on the basis of health, age or breed.



We pledge to promote responsible pet ownership through humane education and to provide shelter and care to our foster dogs until a loving, responsible home can be found. To evaluate each dog and potential home with the goal of matching our dogs to the best possible home. We also provide life-long, quality sanctuary for yorkies that may be too old or ill for adoption.



This organization is made up entirely of people who volunteer their time and money to foster and place these little dogs in caring, loving homes. Almost all the dogs that come into Florida Yorkie Rescue need rehabilitation and training and we seek out medical care or alternative methods if traditional treatments do not work. All dogs that come into Florida Yorkie Rescue will be neutered or spayed and vaccinated.
