Story
Meet sweet Lulu, a 9 year old, 7 pound little Yorkie girl being fostered in Leander, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered. Pupdate 11/20/2025 Miss Lulu is still looking for her furever home, do you have it in your heart to take her into your loving home in time for the holidays? If so please contact us Wishing you a happy Thanksgiving. Pup-date 5/18/25: Little miss Lulu has settled right in at her foster home. She loves her own comfy area and bed. She lays watching all the happenings around the house and especially what her two resident foster siblings are up to. She loves being in the company of her foster parents and can be vocal when she wants their attention. She loves going outside to run the yard and also do her business. She has settled into a routine with consistent wake and bed times. She will let you know when she needs to go outside to potty and/or just explore. She loves to run the fence line and soak up some fresh air. Lulu still loves her meal times and is warming up to more and more human affection every day. Lulu really enjoys following her foster sister around outside and will be best with at least one or more pups in the house. She is sweet, loving, and super cute. Lulu has not met a stranger and really loves all people and animals she has come across. She does well on a leash, and really enjoys just being outside. Lulu needs a home where she will receive nothing but love and patience as she continues to blossom into a normal dog. Lulu's ideal home will be one with other small pups in the house and someone who is home with her most of the day. If you are looking for that one of a kind addition to you home, please contact her foster parents at uyryorkielovetx@yahoo.com or fill out an application using the link below this bio. Meet Lulu, a precious 7.3lb, 9 year old little girl looking for her perfect forever home. Lulu came to UYR about a week ago surrendered from a life of breeding. Although she was a little producer, it is evident she was cared for and loved. She came with some teeth decay and a UTI, but all her blood work appears to be good and she is scheduled for a spay and dental next week. She will likely lose the remaining teeth she has, which is not many. She already has the oh so cute tongue hanging out of her mouth look that just melts your heart for the first look. While we are still learning all there is to know about Lulu, we have noticed that she does lie human attention, likes to snuggle next to you on the couch, is somewhat puppy pad and outside potty trained. She had some accidents in the first few days, but we believe that was due to her UTI. The past few days have been nothing but great potties on a pad or outside. She will bark and run around quickly when she needs to out side. She loves to run in the yard and sleeps well through the night. From what we can see so far, she will need to be in an adult home with someone around most of the time. She has plenty of love to give and is excited to start her journey in her new forever home. If you are interested in adopting her, please fill out an application using the link under her bio on the UYR website.

Story
Meet Mickey TX, a handsome 12 year old, 12 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in Leander, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered. Omgoodness, look at this little chunk a monk! He's just adorable. United Yorkie Rescue Mickey just came into rescue and he will be such an amazing blessing to anyone's home. Sadly, his parents have reached a point in their lives that they realize they cannot provide him with all he needs, so with much love in their hearts, he is now in our rescue. Mickey is so docile in nature and he just loves everything and everybody! He's totally housetrained as well. We see the vet tomorrow and start attending to his needs. He had been extremely healthy all his life, so I'm looking at updating immunizations, a senior panel and a possible dental. Tonight we will be starting this sweet baby on a diet so we can get his weight under control, which will continue to keep him healthy. The only med I am aware of that this little one takes is an eye med for dry eye. More updates to come. However, if your looking to add a precious love to your home, please send me an application at www.uyr.us. You will just adore this sweet, sweet baby boy!

Story
Happy-go-lucky Luke! Sweet little Luke and his brother Duke came from an “accidental” litter. Their mom is a chihuahua, and there dad is, well, anyone’s guess :) Luke’s tail has not stopped wagging since he got to his foster home. He is curious, sweet, and playful. His short little legs give him a wiggly, lowrider strut that’s pure joy to watch. He enjoys playing with other dogs but has not been around cats. He’s done well with people of all ages that he’s met so far, but we are recommending children over 10 since small children can overwhelm small puppies (and vice versa). Short video clip of Luke and Duke in their foster home can be seen here: https://youtube.com/shorts/trDeIGYTKAk?feature=shared (Link may require copy/paste into web browser) Luke’s adoption fee of $450 includes vet exam, age appropriate vaccinations, fecal test, wormer, heart worm/tick test & preventative, neuter, and microchip. If you live in the Austin, TX area and are interested in adopting, please fill out our rescue’s application: http://forgottenfriendstx.org/adoption-application/ Note: these puppies are brand new to our rescue, so if their name isn’t in the list of available dogs on our application yet, please write it in :) Adoption decisions are based on the best overall match rather than a first-come-first-serve basis. Thank you for your interest!
