BOOSTS YOUR MOOD, MAKES YOU SMILE  Est. DOB 1/7/15, WEIGHT 12.7 lbs. Arf! Arf, everyone! I’m Sammy, a sweet, friendly, quiet, and affectionate white Maltipoo (Maltese/ Mini Poodle mix) fella who is, in my humble opinion, the world’s greatest little dog. I think my foster mom agrees because she loves it that I curl up and settle in her lap whenever I can. There are two resident dogs and a cat in my foster home, but I’m much rather interact with beloved Foster Mom than play with them. I have a comical idiosyncrasy: I like to burrow under anything I can move and get under. You name it – bedcovers, blankets, pillows, throws. Foster Mom thinks it’s adorable that a cute little thing such as I am likes to excavate my own little lair like a mole. Let me tell you a little about Maltipoos. We’re gentle, social dogs who love people. Our happy, cheerful dispositions are guaranteed to boost your mood and make you smile. We can even be good therapy dogs because of the comfort we provide. And I’m no exception to this profile! I really looked like a mess when my foster mom first rescued me! Oh my goodness – I weighed only 10 pounds! You could see every bone on my vertebrae, plus I had no hair on my back. My eyes were practically glued shut with “goop” from an infection; I also had an ear infection; and my mouth was a mess from neglected preventative dentistry. Thank heavens Foster Mom and the vet have transformed me into a new man! With a steady diet of nutritious food, I’ve gained 2.5 pounds, I’m filling out nicely, and my fur is growing back! I’m eating a soft diet that’s appropriate after all of the diseased teeth (that hadn’t already fallen out) have been pulled. I look and feel so much better! And the silver lining about having no teeth is that I don't need any future dental cleanings! Medications have cleared up my original eye and ear infections. The vet also diagnosed that I have a condition called “dry eye,” which means that I don’t produce tears like I should. So Foster Mom puts drops in my eyes twice a day and cleans out any “goop” once to twice a day Thanks to the hair around my eyes being clipped, Foster Mom can clean out my eyes easier. I have cataracts in both eyes so I have very limited visibility and bump into things, but get around once I've learned my way! I generally move slow so I don’t hurt myself ! Even though I sleep a good portion of the day, I am quite aware of sounds and scents. I will sound the alarm at unfamiliar noises. I will track Foster Mom down if she has moved from where I left her using my superior olfactory senses. My ideal home would be one that has a doggie door to a small fenced back yard and someone to keep me company.  I’m so grateful for all the love and attention that I’m getting! In return, I snuggle and cuddle like you wouldn’t believe! I’ve learned how to use the doggie door, and I’m now crate-trained. If you’re looking for a cozy lap dog and can look past my limitations, I’d really like to be your dog! Half of my life is still ahead of me, so let’s spend it together! My heart has so much love to give, all that’s missing is YOU!

Story
Dakota is a sweet boy who needs a temporary home while I'm away for work. He is 10.5 years old yet still full of energy and needs someone to show him love and attention while I am not able to do so! He has his own interesting personality, which I'm sure all dogs do, but his has definitely changed over the years. One minute he's up and ready to play, the next he's nowhere to be found! He's either off playing fetch by himself or sleeping for hours at a time. He's good with kids but can only handle so much of them pulling on his tail. It's safe to say that he dosen't like it! Other than that, as long as he's hugged, rubbed, and fed, he's perfect!

Meet Lilly! 🌸 This sweet 6-month-old pup was rescued after being abandoned in a barn, and she is now ready for her forever home. Lilly is fully vaccinated, house and crate trained, and currently working on her basic commands. She is a Maltese and chihuahua mix. She is full of puppy energy and she loves to run, play, and explore! Lilly gets along well with smaller dogs and is currently living with a larger dog. She is curious about cats and may try to playfully chase them. While she hasn’t been around many kids, she seems friendly and enjoys being around people. Lilly is looking for a loving family who can keep up with her playful spirit and continue helping her grow into the amazing dog she’s meant to be! 🐾

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.All dogs listed here are available for adoption from Yorkie Rescue Houston.  Our goal is to ensure our rescued pets go to their forever home and never end up back in the system.  To that end, an application is required on all potential adopters.   Our adoption fee varies by dog.  We accept electronic funds via VENMO or Paypal, or cash only. Puppies too young to be spayed/neutered are available for Foster-to-Adopt only.  A FTA contract is required.   Cotton was surrendered by his family to be euthanized when he quit eating. The shelter reached out to us.  We immediately took him to our vet where it was discovered he was in excruciating pain.  His mouth was full of decay and disease. During his dental, his jaw BROKE.  literally, snapped off while under anesthesia. We rushed him to our ortho surgeon who masterfully repaired and restored his jaw using metal plate and pins/screws. Cotton has recovered and been medically released.  He is a sweet boy, who loves to WOOOOOO.  He has some anxiety being left alone so a full-time caregiver / lap loaner would be his preference. Cotton was on soft food for 8 weeks and is now transitioning to kibble.  he does fine. Cotton does go dry overnight.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 27, 2025, 10:33 pm
