Yorkie puppies and dogs in Fort Mill, South Carolina

Age: 7 years Weight: 6 lbs. Adoption Fee: $300.00 Fostered in Indian Trail, North Carolina Email: yorkiemommync@yahoo.com 6/26/25 - We are still working through Harley's skin issues. Her skin culture showed she has a very resistant staph infection and there is only one antibiotic that will work. It may cause GI issues, but so far it has been ok. She also had an allergy test, and she is allergic to several grasses, trees, mold, dust mites, and storage mites, so things that are all over the place. We are going to try allergy shots, but they will be drops under the tongue instead of a shot. It can take a year to two years to see a difference with the allergy drops. She has stopped throwing up, so the GI medicine she is on is helping that. It is possible she may have GERD, which is why she just throws up without warning or heaving or anything, it just comes right out without any warning. Harley is getting more and more comfortable and her personality is showing more everyday. She can be quite vocal when you are not going fast enough to get her meal done, or at strangers that come over if another dog barks at them. She loves going for rides in the car and does great in her console car seat. She loves laying in the sun like her foster sister Harper. 4/14/25 - Harley came to YHR because her mom was moving and her medical issues were getting to be too much. Harley has some significant skin issues and itching and throws up occasionally. Her skin issues have caused some of her skin to turn black around her eyes, all over her backend, and her back ankles. Because of her itching, she does have to wear a cone occasionally otherwise she scratches until she bleeds. She will be seeing the dogtor this week, so more to come!! Other than her medical issues, she is opening up and is very sweet. She has been fine with all the other pups and has been very patient with her baths.

Age: 1 year Weight: 10 lbs. Adoption Fee: $500.00 Fostered in Indian Trail, North Carolina Email: yorkiemommync@yahoo.com 6/26/25 - Ella was found wandering the streets. When her savior found her, she was covered in fleas, burrs, and her nails were very long. She was very patient while they worked on getting the burrs and fleas off of her for three to four hours. She did not have a microchip and her owner was not found. The family that found her absolutely LOVED her, but she was not a good fit for their family. She is young and VERY playful. She wants to play with anyone that will play with her, whether it is a cat or a dog. She is also extremely loving with people. She wants to give you lots and lots of kisses. She has done excellent on her house training and goes outside, but has been known to use a pee pad in the house. She has not met a stranger, whether person or animal. She is extremely curious about everything, she will have to smell and check out anything new. She likes to lay on the couch with her family, sleeps great in bed, is pretty good on a leash but sometimes will pull, and she is very attentive and will turn her head when listening to you. If she is told no or corrected for something, she will pout and act upset like you hurt her feelings, so she knows what you are saying. You could not find a better pup than Ella. She would do best in a home with another pup she could play with and a fenced yard so she does not end up out on her own again.

Age: 5 years Weight: 9 lbs. Adoption Fee: $350.00 Fostered in Indian Trail, North Carolina Email: yorkiemommync@yahoo.com 9/16/24 - Bruno's skin condition has been in remission for over a year. He no longer takes any medication for his skin. He is just on supplements for his joints since his hips are not the best. He is very sensitive to the food he eats and can get runny poo very quickly, but his foster mom has found a food that is working and he has no longer had any poo issues. He still loves to play with toys and likes to be chased, he crawls under blankets to nap, and unfortunately still has to wear a belly band because he will pee on anything at any time. He still always looks so happy and excited too. 11/30/22 – Today we found out Bruno has an autoimmune disease called Pemphigus Erythematosus that is causing all his skin issues. His dermatologist is going to start him on high dose steroids for two weeks to try and get it in remission as quickly as possible so we can back down and get him ready to have his torn ACL repaired. He will also be going on a medication called Mycophenolate for the autoimmune disease, and that will likely be for the rest of his life to keep it in remission. He is still going to physical therapy weekly and is still not too thrilled with the hydro treadmill. He just does not want to use his back legs to walk while in it. Might just take more time and hopefully once we can get the torn ACL repaired it will get even better. Despite all he has going on, he is still so happy and loving! He gets to spend more time out of the crate now that he is six weeks post hip surgery. Thank you to everyone for their prayers and support for Bruno! 11/2/22 – Bruno had his hip surgery on 10/18. We have been doing his exercises at home, but unfortunately he is not using the leg like he should, so we will be starting with physical therapy on 11/4. We are hopeful this will help to get the leg moving the way it should and build up some more muscle as it feels like he has lost even more muscle mass in that leg. He still needs the ACL repair to happen, but the skin needs to be figured out first. Bruno has also seen the dermatologist and she initially thought his skin issues were from an antibiotic resistant staph infection, but he has had two negative cultures. She is now thinking it could possibly be an auto immune disease, even though she did not see the cells she usually sees when doing a skin scrape in the office. We are spraying him with a topical antibiotic/steroid spray and medicated baths every 3 days. We have a skin biopsy tentatively scheduled for 11/15. We need to get the infection cleared up more before doing a biopsy otherwise it could skew the results. Poor Bruno has so much going on, but even through all of it he is so happy and loving. He will just stare lovingly into your eyes and snuggle into you. 10/12/22 - Bruno went in yesterday and was neutered and had his dental done. After dental x-rays were done, it was found that he had major bone loss around several teeth and the start of bone loss around others. Given they were so bad, as we suspected, he had to have the remaining teeth he had removed. He is doing good with no teeth and ate some food last night and breakfast this morning. The dogtor said as he was under anesthesia and she wiggled a few of the teeth his blood pressure would go up, meaning she could tell they were painful to him. His mouth should feel so much better now. We also went to see the specialist last week as his leg has become worse being on crate rest. It was decided that he will go in on 10/18 for an FHO on his worst hip and if his skin is much better at that time she will also fix the torn ACL. He cannot have any infection for that repair, so we are crossing our fingers. If not, he will have to go in when his skin is cleared up and have the ACL repair. He has been battling the skin issues since December 2021 when his savior took him out of the bad situation. The dogtor suspects it is still flea dermatitis. His skin is better, but not good enough. The hip surgery is estimated to be around $2500 right now. Despite all his ailments he is still such a happy and loving little guy. 9/21/22 – Bruno is a happy go lucky little man that you can just see the smile on his face. He loves belly rubs, lots of affection, and loves to play with toys now that he knows how to. He did not have a great start to his life by living the first years of his life in a building with several other yorkies that were just given food and water a couple of times a day and not having all the love and attention they deserved. A wonderful lady went to help his original owner clean up all the dogs and convinced her to let her take two of the pups in December 2021. When his savior brought him home he had fleas, was not using his back leg, and had a bad rash. She worked very hard to make him feel better. Due to her own health, she unfortunately had to surrender him, which is how he came to YHR. We are still working on clearing up his rash, his bloodwork is slowly improving, but he has very bad teeth that need to be cleaned. He is scheduled for his dental and neuter on 10/12. We saw the specialist today regarding his limping and lameness in his left back leg. He does have bilateral hip arthritis, restricted mobility in both hips, but he also has a torn ACL in he left knee. He is going on crate rest for about 4 weeks to see if he can build scar tissue to naturally heal it and try to avoid surgery. If that does not work, then he will need surgery to repair it. Once we get that fixed, then we will see if his mobility gets better and if not, he may need surgery on the hip to give him mobility. With the issues with the back legs, he does put more pressure on his front legs and sometimes limps on the front legs, but x-rays show there are no issues with the front legs. Bruno really is just the happiest little guy we have seen in a while. He looks like he is smiling a lot of the time. He does great riding in the car and has been doing so in a doggy car seat. His crate rest will be in a stroller, which he does not mind either. He went for a stroll last weekend in the stroller and did great. Given he is older and was never neutered nor trained to go potty outside because he peed where he lived, he does mark a lot. That likely will not change given his age, so he may need to remain in a belly band, which he is great with too. He has lost some muscle mass in his backend, so the bellybands will slip off his hips, but suspenders have worked great to keep it in place. We are not sure about him likely to cuddle given the pain he is dealing with in his knee and hips, so hopefully when that all gets fixed we can see if he is a cuddle bug too.

Age: 7 years Weight: 10 lbs. Adoption Fee: $325.00 Fostered in Indian Trail, North Carolina Email: yorkiemommync@yahoo.com I have serious medical issues, Please Donate! 4/14/25 - Quba (said Kooba) and Nupe (said Noop) are brothers and came to YHR at the same time. Their dad had to surrender them because he was working two jobs and his landlord was doubling the pet fee, so he did not have time for them like he once did. They are both very happy and loving and want all your attention. Quba has ear infections in both ears and has had ear infections over the years. His right hip is fully luxated out of the joint, and so Quba will be having hip surgery. You can tell his hip really bothers him because he tries not to use that leg and will hop around. He does also have some arthritis in his knees. Once his hip is healed from surgery, he will need to be neutered and have a dental.

Age: 10 years Weight: 8 lbs. Adoption Fee: $300.00 Fostered in Indian Trail, North Carolina Email: yorkiemommync@yahoo.com 6/26/25 - Jaxon came to YHR with severe heart issues. His heart is at the stage where fluid has started backing up into the lungs. He has already had a congestive heart failure episode and spent some time at the emergency vet in oxygen and on liquid meds to get the fluid out faster. The meds are helping to keep it as stable as possible and after the episode they were adjusted. We are not sure how much time Jaxon has left, but we will do everything we can to keep him happy and comfortable. He loves to eat and even lets his foster mom know when it is medicine time because he gets a treat with his meds. He asks to go outside, but if no one is home he has had accidents in the house, but that is due to the meds he is on for his heart. He loves to be with his people either laying on your lap or next to you and sleeps in bed with everyone. He loves people and barks at everyone new.

Age: 9 years Weight: 8 lbs. Adoption Fee: $300.00 Fostered in Indian Trail, North Carolina Email: yorkiemommync@yahoo.com 6/26/25 - Olivia is doing wonderful. She has had her mammary tumors removed, been spayed, teeth cleaned and removed, and the bump on her head is just a fluid filled cyst that we have emptied every so often. There was not enough extra skin on her head to remove it, so it just needs to be emptied occasionally. In her old age she can be a bit bossy at times and will bark/scream when she wants something, such as going inside after pottying or wanting up on the couch. She loves to lay next to you and sleeps great in the bed, she even finds the stairs up to the bed and uses them to come up. 12/11/24 - Olivia came to us a few weeks ago in pretty sad condition with multiple mammary tumors. We have already had her surgery for them done and she recovered well. She does need some more things done but thankfully there is no cancer! We will update soon, but wanted to get her on our website because she does need donations for her veterinary bills we have incurred and that will be continuing. Posting before and after photos....she was SO very sad at the shelter and has blossomed in her foster home which makes us all very happy.
