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.

ABSOLUTELY NO CATS

DO NOT APPLY FOR THIS DOG IF YOU HAVE CATS!

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

Tucker was surrendered when the family failed to protect him from their child (and Vice-Versa)

A 2 yr old must be supervised when interacting with ANY animal.  But that's another story!

Tucker is actually a very sweet little dog.  Was a perfect gentleman for his vetting and grooming, and fell asleep on his foster-dad's chest on the way home.  

Tucker is a great dog. He has learned to interact well with his foster's pet Yorkie. They play exceptionally well and sleep together. He follows very close to both his foster mom and dad. He is exceptionally snuggly and loves to lay on his foster family members and fall asleep while being petted. He does sleep in his crate at night, as he will have an accident if he is free to roam without supervision. Tucker is exceptionally smart and a very quick learner. He understands basic commands like "outside", "walk", "ride" (car ride) "cookie" (for treats), and "cheese". His foster mom gives cheese slices only as a special treat and he definitely is more particular for Kraft cheese slices than any other brand! His foster parents think he is a little "bougie"!

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.
