Adoption Fee: $450 Fostered in Baton Rouge, Louisiana Age: 2 year; 4 months Weight: 11 lbs. Major Tom is a Yorkie/Schnauzer mix. 4/14/23 - Major Tom thought it was about time he updated everyone on what was going on with him since he has been in his foster home. He is a sweet boy, but does have fear issues with new people. When he first meets someone, he will bark at them as if he is scared and trying to protect himself. Sometimes he might even go hide if meeting someone new at his foster home where he is secure. But once introduced and comfortable, he will love unconditionally. He loves men and woman, but definitely is more comfortable with woman. In his foster home, he plays and loves on foster mom and dad, but will submissive tinkle if foster dad picks him up too quickly. He would benefit from a young playful dog in the home as he loves to play and can be aggravating to dogs that don't want to play or have his energy level. He loves to play with toys and run and play chase with other dogs. He is not very comfortable walking on a harness and leash, so a secure fenced yard is a must for him. He is a very good sleeping companion and adores laying right next to his humans either on top or under the covers. Major does well at the groomer and is great for his weekly bath and blow dry for his foster parents. He doesn't like a chaotic, busy or loud home, so he would probably do best in a home without children. He is a smart baby. His foster mom taught him to sit for a treat in just 1 day. So he has potential to learn more basic commands. Major is a happy little guy that did not learn a lot of socialization as a young pup and that has resulted in him being a little socially uncomfortable and timid, but he loves his people 100% and is a great pup. He has enjoyed living at his foster home, but wouldn't object to starting his life with his forever family. Since he is scared around new people and will need time to adjust, visits will probably be beneficial in his transition when getting adopted. So, he will need to be adopted in Louisiana to make sure that all goes well. If you feel that you are the one for Major Tom, we are accepting applications now! 11/22/21 - Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! The name is Major Tom, but you can call me Major. Or, you can call me Tommy Boy. Or you can call me Baby. Just call me in a sweet voice, because I love that. I was surrendered by my previous owner because I was too much to handle. My last home did not have enough energy outlets for me and I really need exercise and also needed more socialization. Not getting this resulted in me playing too rough snapping and biting at my mom. She did what was best and surrendered me to YHR. I explained to my foster mom that I didn’t mean it and she said that it’s just puppy antics that needed to be redirected. I do have a very submissive and fearful personality. I’m afraid when meeting new people and will sometimes submissive tinkle. Other times I will try to overcompensate for my fear by barking and growling. Foster mom tells everyone to just sit down and let me get to know them and come to them on my terms. She told me that she understands my issues and we are going to slowly work on them. She’s cool. I’m timid around other dogs too. I’m just learning to play with them a little because there is a Shih-tzu in my foster home that is trying to show me the ropes. So having another dog in the home would be a plus so I can pickup ques from them and it helps me trust humans too. I just don’t need to be around any that are too rough because it scares me. Once I trust you, I’m definitely my human’s dog and I will follow you everywhere and can even get protective of you. I f foster mom and I are in the bed and foster dad walks in, I will bark and growl at him until he comes over and talks sweet to me and pets me. Foster mom said that I cannot go to a home with children of any age or one that is too chaotic because I get overly stimulated easily. Exercise, i.e., walking, playing fetch or chase with my humans, etc. will help with this and help me to gain confidence. I know I’m not doing the best at making myself sound like a gem to be adopted, but I am actually a great boy. I come when called, sleep right next to my human all night perfectly, and loves to give and receive love and affection. I’m learning to play with toys and it is the bomb! I’m pretty good in the potty department as long as you let me out enough and stay out with me If you think you will sneak off and go inside, forget it. I will run back in too and do my business inside. So, it’s up to you if you want to stay out with me, or clean up. Lol I’m not a springy fellow. I’m actually just starting to walk up the steps/benches to the bed. But I still like to be picked up and put in the bed. I will come down the steps though. Foster mom says it is just adorable to see me raise up on the side of the bed and scratch to be picked up. I guess since I’m bigger, she just assumes I’d be able to jump up and down the steps with ease. While I’m continuing to get love and attention here and learning discipline and how to trust, if you think I have the potential to be a part of your home, please apply. Remember, I will need a quiet home with parents that will exercise me regularly, no children, and another non-rowdy dog to learn from and play with. Don’t let my shortcomings scare you off, I’m quite handsome and a great catch. Or so says foster mom and she wouldn’t lie to me. I'll be spending Thanksgiving with my foster family, but maybe by Christmas, I can have a family of my own. Major Tom signing off! 11/12/21 - BIO COMING SOON!

Adoption Fee: $150 Fostered in Baton Rouge, Louisiana Age: 10 years Weight: 10 lbs. COOPER IS A YORKIE/MALTESE MIX! 4/14/23 - To quote Marilyn Monroe, I’m selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can’t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best. Now that that’s out of the way, my name is Cooper. I came to Yorkie Haven because I can be a bit tempermental at times and my family of 9 years had a baby and they were afraid we would not get along. I can see their point. I don’t like hands coming at me too quickly and will let you know it. However, I don’t have many teeth left, so I can’t cause much harm. Also, foster mom says I have a “tell”. If you are in my space when I am not in the mood, I get this “I don’t trust – pause” about me that lets you know to just be on your way. I absolutely love sleeping in the bed with my humans and love giving kisses. I get attached to women quicker than men, but I do love all people. I will follow you around non-stop. Even to the bathroom for whatever it is you are doing. I even raise up on the tub when foster mom is bathing and have to have kisses then. I would do best in a home with another dog or two that doesn’t really need my attention, or, the ideal is I’m the only dog getting all the attention. I know that sounds selfish, but my bio does start off letting you know I’m selfish. Lol I love going for walks and rides. Great in a car and on a harness and leash and walking is a great outlet for me. I might be 9 years old, but I am very spry and healthy. I would definitely do better in a home without children because I don’t like the loud noises and chaos. Guess that’s where my age steps in. Foster mom says I am a quick learner. I learned to sit for treats in 1 day of practicing. So, anyone out there looking for a sweet guy that is a tad quirky? I’m your baby. Let’s bring in this new 2022 together! 12/21/21 - BIO COMING SOON!

Adoption Fee: $150.00 Age: 10 years years Weight: 5.8 lbs. Fostered in Baton Rouge, Louisiana Email: bryorkiemom@yahoo.com 3/8/3 - Hi Everyone. It’s Hunter and it seems it’s been a while since my last update, so I thought I take to the computer to let ya’ll know what’s been going on. After I had my vetting and dental, my remaining teeth were taken out because apparently they were nasty. Yes, since I don’t have teeth to hold my tongue in, it hangs out of my mouth and makes me look even cuter. I eat soft food twice daily like a rockstar! When I was at the doctor recently a couple things were determined. Seems I’m Hypo-thyroid, so I take Thyroxine, ½ pill twice daily. This medicine runs $12 per month. I also have bi-lateral luxating patellas and some arthritis in my back legs, but at my age and considering how long I’ve already been living with this, surgery is not recommended. I walk bo-legged which looks uncomfortable, but it doesn’t really slow me down. However, I really am not one for long walks and cannot/should not maneuver steps or jump. Other than the above listed things, I am happy, healthy and handsome. I am very lively for my age and love being held and giving kisses. I am a sweetheart of a little guy that just wants to give and receive love. Foster mom said that I better not forget to tell you that I do have a bark inside this little body and am not afraid to use it to get what I want or just attention. So, to sum up, I’m still here waiting on my forever home to scoop me up. 11/1/22 - I’ve been single for while now. I guess you can say that I was scared of “Commitment”. But lately while traveling the single’s scene, I’ve noticed other pups just like me in long term relationships and happy. They are always with their human companion, hand in paw, playing fetch, getting belly rubs, and so on. I think there might be something to this couple’s thing and I’m ready to try it. Hi, my name is Hunter. Seeing as how I was picked up stray roaming around looking for food, I’m thinking I was named after what I doing. Get it? Hunter! Hunting for food! Anyway, a good Samaritan scooped me up and brought me to rescue. I was in pretty bad shape. I was missing a lot of hair due to flea allergies, I wasn’t neutered and I had bad skin and ear infections. I visited the doctor and they gave me medicine and special shampoo to fix me up. I’m also fixing to get neutered and have a dental. They said that I don’t have many teeth, so we will see if I have any after this dental thing. Doesn’t matter to me, I’m eating soft food just fine and love the taste of it and everyone I meet tells me how cute I look with my tongue sticking out. In my foster home, there are other dogs and I’m doing well with them, but don’t really play. I was used to just traveling alone and didn’t stop long to made friends. But, I do love all people. Foster mom says that I am doing well with something called potty training. I use pee pads and go outside. Foster mom is retired, so we go out a lot which is a good thing for my old bladder. I’ve started taking to the toys laying around the house and am learning that they squeak. I’m not as clingy as some of other foster siblings, but I’m learning and do love to give kisses and be held. Here’s the best thing…. when it gets later in the evening, foster mom says: “Ok, let’s go to bed. Then we all go into another room where there is thing (a bed) and we all get to sleep in it with foster mom. It is the most comfortable thing EVER. I mean, I thought I slept good outside. Pretty much laying wherever, whenever I got tired, but this bed contraption is something I wish for everyone. It is the bomb! Please God, let there be one of these in my forever home. And since I’m ending this with praying: God, please let my forever parents be sweet and kind to me. Please let them fed me twice a day…. everyday. Please let them give me good baths to make my hair smell good and feel soft. Please let them love me unconditionally and never put me outside to live. Amen! Thanks for listening, I really appreciate everyone who looked at my photos and read my bio. Foster mom says that there is a perfect home out there for me and she and God will make sure that is where I end up to live out the rest of my life.
