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.

Milo was found running the streets.  The kind lady who found him took him to be scanned for a chip.  The chip company reached out to the owner.  They indicated they had 'given him away' but didn't remember to whom, but they didn't really want him.  They agreed to take him back.  2 days later. he was out running AGAIN.  They told the finder to 'Just keep him!'

Finder reached out to us.  We told her we could not take him unless the REGISTERED CHIP OWNER surrendered him.  She returned him to the owners and told them they need to surrender him.  

Thankfully, they did!

So, we got him vetted, groomed and neutered!

Now, he's learning how to live indoors as a family member and not a street thug!

He's very loving.  He loves to cuddle.  Milo seems to like kids, gets along with other dogs, is working on house training.

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.
