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.

*UPDATE*

Henry was seen by a veterinary ophthalmologist who determined Henry's eyes were diseased. Torn Retinas.  Not only was Henry blind, his eyes were causing him pain.  The only responsible thing to do was remove the eyes.  Henry has adjusted quite well.  He is so loving and gentle.  Henry seeks out love and attention.  He maneuvers his way around his home, and learned where the fireplace was right away!!

Henry is house trained and will tell you when he needs to go outside.  Henry does not kennel well so, his new home should plan on giving  him 'free reign' yet keep him safe from stairs, etc...

NO HOMES WITH INGROUND POOL WILL BE CONSIDERED

Henry ignores other dogs, but those occasionally will 'startle' if another dog 'gets up in his grill'

Henry barks when he perceives a kitty nearby.

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

Henry will come with his 'Muffin's Halo' as well as all medical/veterinary records.

  Henry's mom died.  Henry's dad was unable to continue to care for him.  Henry hadn't been well cared for for years.  Sadly, he has suffered a great deal of neglect.  He has lost almost all of his hair due to severe flea infestation.  He has mature cataracts.  He was fed poor quality food.  He is estimated to be as young as maybe 6?  We'll know more when our vet issues 'Doctor's notes' on his chart.  For now, owner said they have had Henry for about 5 years.  He had NEVER BEEN TO A VET THE WHOLE TIME THEY HAD HIM!

No flea control, no vaccines, no wormer, no HW prevention.....nothing... just existed.  Poor Henry!

We aim to see he  never suffers another day for the rest of his life.  

Eye specialist tomorrow

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.
