All applications from 2023 have been purged. 

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.

Buddy may be adopted by an experienced diabetic dog parent.  His diabetes is not WELL managed, as he has occasional spikes.  But we believe we have found as close as we can get to his 'sweet spot' for dosing.

Buddy wears a 'Muffin's Halo' to help him from hitting is face against barriers.  

He loves, LOVES squeaky toys.

Buddy needs to be AN ONLY DOG.  He does NOT tolerate other dogs.  (Poor boy... i can understand not trusting what he can't see)

Can you give Buddy a soft place to land?

Do NOT apply if you have an inground pool!  That is a deal breaker.  

*************************************************************************

This poor lamb was obtained from someone on Craigslist in May. She was told that he was up to date on his vaccinations and was healthy. Sometime after that time - he suddenly went blind and the owner was not able to get him the help that he needed due to long work hours. Long and short of it was that this boy has tested as being diabetic. We are going to be trying to get his diabetes regulated, treat his skin issues then have him seen by an ophthalmologist for his sight issues.

Public Service Announcement:
Effective Immediately - Due to limited resources, we will now hold FOUND (stray) dogs for 5 days. After that, they will be eligible for ADOPTION.

Please note that we have no shelter where our rescues can be viewed. All of our dogs are in private homes being fostered until they find their forever home. The first step in the adoption process is to fill out an application.

Please understand,

Yorkie Rescue Houston has no paid staff.  We are all volunteers.  We also have families, jobs and lives outside of rescue.  We do our best to communicate with our potential adopters, but please understand, we simply do not have the resources to contact every applicant personally.   

IF YOUR APPLICATION FOR ADOPTION IS APPROVED, WE WILL CONTACT YOU!

If you fail to provide the information requested (Vet and/or personal reference contact information) YOUR APPLICATION WILL BE DENIED.
