Story
Debo is a male yorkie/shih tzu who was born about 7/2017. He is neutered, up to date on shots and heart worm negative. Debo gets along well with other dogs and cats, but would do best in a home without small children. Debo was saved from doggy jail before his number was up. He is a playful little guy who wants a home to call his own.

Story
Adoption Fee: $400 Age: 3.5 years Weight: 7.5 lbs. Fostered in Baton Rouge, LA Email: bryorkiemom@yahoo.com 11/22/23 - To quote Marilyn Monroe, “I’m selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and can, at times, be 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”. I recently found myself in need of rescue when my family was relocating and they could not take me with them. Oh well, Thanksgiving will be here soon and I still have a lot to be thankful for. I’m very thankful that they found a great foster mom to take me in while I interviewed applicants to be my next family. See, when you are puppy, people show up and give breeders money and that is your family and home. When you are lucky enough to enter a rescue, people fill out applications and wait to see if they are lucky enough to have you. See the difference there? Turns the tables a bit. Let me tell you a little about myself so you can ask yourself if you think we might be a match. I’m a bit a wild child, a rebel, a mover and a shaker. There isn’t a dog toy at my foster home that has been able to beat me. I rip them to shreds. I’m also a springy little thing. For your sake, push the chairs into the table tight. Especially if you tend to put any food on the table. I will get it, and I will eat it. I can’t lie, I used to get table scraps and everyone knows that this is a definite NO-NO for yorkies. Especially if you don’t want to end up at the emergency vet. So, keep all food out of reach. Oh, having the trash cans in a place that I can’t get to them is probably a good idea as well. On to my next bad habit. I’m a bit of a darter. Yep, open that front door for the pizza delivery person, and say goodbye to me. If you have a backyard that might have some low areas that you think I can’t get out of, watch and learn! Taking me to the vet or the dog park and you think you will put me in the car and turn your back…. I think you get the hint! There are other dogs in my foster home and I am co-existing fine with them, but not so much that I want to play with them. I’d rather sit in my human(s) lap or destroy a toy. Foster mom lets me sleep in the bed with her and I love it. So, I’ll be sleeping in the bed with my next parents. I like most people, but right at first, I can be untrusting. I’m sure you can understand. Do you trust everyone you meet without first being suspicious? Well, you shouldn’t! Foster mom has pee pads down for us and I’ve used them, but love going outside and will do my business there too. This doesn’t mean I won’t make mistakes. It just means I’m 50% perfect. Normal household noises don’t seem to bother me, but I’m not sure about firecrackers and bad weather yet. Let me see….. what else? I guess that’s about it for now. I hope I didn’t scare you off, but I’m a truthful kind of gal and want you to know the bad and the good. If you want a dog that will lie to you and tell you they won’t make a mistake in the house, that’s not me. I won’t sugar coat anything. I’m as real as they come. Someone has to take me as I am, or don’t take me all. You game?

Story
Adoption Fee: $100 Age: 14 years Weight: 9 lbs. Fostered in Prairieville, LA Email: bryorkiemom@yahoo.com 11/22/23 - What’s that you say honey? You are going to have to talk louder because I’m hard of hearing. My eyesight also isn’t what it used to be because of these darn cataracts. And to top it off, I recently went to the vet and was told I have a grade 4 heart murmur. It’s ok though, the vet gave me some medicine to take, (Enalapril, 2.5 mg., ½ tab twice daily; Furosemide, 20 mg., ½ tab twice daily; and Vetmedin, 2.5 mg., ½ tab twice daily) and it makes me feel like new. Well, maybe not like NEW, but heck, what do you expect from a 14-year-old yorkie? Oops, there goes my mind getting all side-tracked again. My name is Scottie and I entered Yorkie Haven Rescue because my mom’s eyes, ears and mind weren’t all they used to be either and she had to go live in a nursing home. This old age thing doesn’t play favorites does it? Well, I hope my age doesn’t scare you away, because I’m definitely not ready to check out, just ready to check into a new home that wants a distinguished older man. Someone they can watch their soaps with and pet as they relieve their stress. Anyway, I’m in a great foster home now and foster mom and dad just love me to pieces. They are always telling me what a good and sweet boy I am. They sure do know how to make an old-timer feel special. They have 2 other dogs here at my foster home and I fit right in and we’ve been known to play a little. However, I do think that a home without young dogs and children would be best since I am in retirement. Foster mom and dad let me sleep with them and I really love that, but I also don’t mind taking naps on the sofa or in a few of the dog beds around here. Once I warm up, I love all people, but since my sight and hearing are diminished, I’ll need you to be gentle and slow in the beginning. I’m really good about doing my business outside when taken and there are potty pads inside that I’ve been known to use as well. I hope you are ok though if I make a mistake since my bladder isn’t what it used to be either. With all of the cons I’ve been telling you about myself, I figured I better throw in some pros so you don’t quit reading my bio and move on to the next dog. I’m not a huge barker, which I’ve been told is a plus for my breed; I sleep good; I eat good; I’m an awesome car buddy; I’m a sweet snuggler; I’m cute; I’m loveable and I like to give kisses. Did that level the playing field? I think it should! I might have a few body parts that don’t function at 100% anymore, but I still feel love and have a lot of it to give. I’m an unconditional kind of guy, and if just given the chance, I would make you the happiest dog owner EVER!

Story
Adoption Fee: $150 Age: 10 years Weight: 6 lbs. Fostered in Louisiana Email: bryorkiemom@yahoo.com 9/26/23 - I just wanted to update everyone on my condition. I do have an enlarged heart, but that is expected with a baby my age with the heavy load of heartworms that I had prior to completing treatment. I've completed my steriods and am doing much better, but to be on the safe side, I better not run around acting like a 2 year old. I can still play, just need to act my age now. Thanks for all your prayers. 9/14/23 - Good Morning everyone! Remy here. Apparently, I just needed a little specialized attention last night with my labored breathing and ER visit. I told the dogtor to call foster mom this morning and let her know that I am feeling MUCH better. Breathing better and no ill side effects. Seems it was more than likely some inflammatory response to the heartworm disease that I just completed treatment for. I will go home on a short dose of steriods but should be 100% soon. I might be checking out of this hotel as early as this afternoon if all goes well and then I'm looking for to some r&r at home. Hope foster mom and all the fur-siblings missed me. 9/13/2023 - Remy had completed heartworm treatment and has been doing well. This evening he started having some breathing difficulties and was taken to the EC. He has been admitted and medicated for comfort and is in oxygen. We will update as we know more tomorrow. 7/8/23 - Remy will start heart worm treatment on Thursday, July 13. Keep him in your prayers. 5/3/23 - I didn’t ask to be born; I didn’t ask to be homeless; and I certainly didn’t ask to be heartworm positive. But I am/was all of these things. Born because no one spayed momma. Homeless because no one wanted momma’s kids. And heartworm positive, because no one ever gave me heartworm prevention, which all dogs should receive monthly. I guess I could either get mad and hold a grudge, or be happy that I was found and brought to Yorkie Haven Rescue. I choose the latter. I’m in a foster home now and being treated like a King… King Remy. I like the sound of that. I officially change my name to King Remy! J So, King Remy, (apparently, I’m speaking of myself in the third person now), will be neutered and have a dental cleaning (wow, do I ever need that) on May 18th and will start heartworm treatment in July. This Yorkie Haven place sure is nice to do all this for me. But King Remy is worth it! There are other dogs in my foster home, but I’m not really a player. It might come later on, but it seems all I’m interested in right now is humping. Everyone in this household will sure be happy when I’m neutered. This wasn’t a problem when I was living on the street. Another downfall of living on the street is that there was never anyone to get attached too. So I’m not quite as clingy as I understand most yorkies are. I also don’t understand or play with toys. I’m not a huge kisser and don’t crave to be held. I don’t really bark much, but do eat very well and I'm not really scared of noises. I’m hoping to update this bio after I’ve been neutered, had my teeth cleaned and completed heartworm treatment, to say….. that I follow my human(s) everywhere, love to be held and give kisses, play with other dogs my size, and can play with and tear up a toy like no one’s business. Even though I cannot officially join my new family until heartworm treatment is complete, I’m taking applications now so I can get used to my last name. King Remy __________!

Story
Adoption Fee: $600 Age: 1 year; 2 months Weight: 5 lbs. Fostered in Baton Rouge, LA Email: bryorkiemom@yahoo.com 11/2/23 - We have learned a little more about Dylan since he has been in his foster home longer, so thought it was time for an update. Dylan, even though he likes playing with younger, very active dogs, he might do better as an only dog. He will need alot of activity and loves his walks daily because he is 100% active. He does have quite the attitude and can be very bossy, and nippy. He will bite on occasions. He does not like his face being messed with and does need an experienced adopter who can be strong with him yet not so strong that it makes him anxious and gets him overly stimulated mentally. He definitely needs a man in his life because he adores men. He does love his foster mom, but will be happier if there is a dad around. If you are interested, and his update hasn’t made him seem too crazy, the first step in our process is our online adoption application. 8/13/23 - Everyone put your hands together for DJ Dylan! Yo! Yo! Ladies and Gentlemen, my name is Dylan, if you’re wondering what I’m up to, I just be chillin. I was found on the streets by a good Samaritan, she brought me to the vet and became my new friend. She looked for my owners far and wide, but I guess when they said they loved me, they must have lied. I’ve got a dope disposition and I’m happy all the time, although I’ve been through a lot, I’m doing just fine. I love other dogs and can’t wait to have a fur-brother or sister to play with. I love snuggling with the other dogs in my foster home and playing chase with them. We all sleep with foster mom and don’t even argue about who gets to lay closest to her. Even though I love my foster mom, I absolutely LOVE men. So, I would like it if I could have a mom and a dad. My vocals are strong, so no apartments or attached housing. We go on walks every morning and I am the love of the neighborhood. I don’t meet a stranger (except for small children), and no one can pass me up without meeting, petting and sniffing me. I am pretty agile, so you can usually find me on the back of the sofa or a chair. I’m pretty good at the benches/steps too, so don’t think you are sleeping in the big bed without me. I love playing with toys, so wouldn’t mind an army of those in my new home. Foster mom has puppy pads down which really helps with my tiny bladder. But I’m not picky, I’ll use grass, concrete, pads, etc. Even though I have energy and love to play, I choose a lap over everything, hand down. I’ve been told that I’m not the best at grooming, especially around my face, but I’m sure I will get better with time. Oh, I can’t forget to tell you that we will need a front doorway that is secure since I’m very small and quick. We might want to invest in one of those baby gates that you have to enter before getting to the front door. Safety first! Let’s sum it up. I’m cute, I’m sweet, I’m playful, I’m energetic and a magnet for all humans. So, I’ll end by saying that, “Even though my last home was whack, YHR will find me a new great crib, and that’s a fact! Peace Out!

Story
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!
