My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Rookie!  He is a Yorkie puppy that was given to a Senior Citizen, who could  not keep up with his energy!   He is four months old now and weighs 9 lbs.  Rookie is trained to ring the bell when he needs to go potty.  He is super smart but needs activity like any puppy.  So this would need to be kept up  to keep him on track to continue it.  He is smart but highly active.  He needs a young playmate in his forever home and also needs someone who is home more than not.   He walks well on a leash.  Super good witih other dogs as well as cats.  He loves to play fetch and he needs a yard so apartments would not be considered at this time.  He is adorable and super sweet.



Rookie's forever home needs to include another playful dog housemate.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Thank you for adopting and not buying!!! Every week hundreds of highly adoptabledogs are put to death by local shelters. Most people would be amazed at the purebred and beautiful dogs available, if they walked into their neighborhood shelter.

Rescue organizations, like mine, work hard to save as many as we possibly can but is a never ending process with breeders and Puppy Mills selling unhealthy animals to the public. If you EVER saw a puppy mill you would NEVER buy again!

All of my dogs are neutered or spayed, vet checked, completely vaccinated, wormed, groomed and checked for heart worms. They are all are current on Heart worm medicine, flea, and tick medications. They are all microchipped as well.

Adoption fee is $300 to $350 (older "friends' can be less, please inquire. Puppies are $350 - Besides fully vetting all dogs, some of of the dogs I rescue, 1 in 5 I rescue have heart worms which is very expensive to treat. I also take in dogs who need surgeries and are close to death.

More about this rescue

About us: Cody was the first pet I owned as an adult. He was a Shih Tzu that I bought unknowingly, from a Puppy Mill. He fought for his life and barely survived, suffering for the first few months of his life. From then on I was stirred by a ferocious passion to save as many dogs as I could through networking with other rescue groups and saving the ones I could off of cold streets and unwanted in shelters. Cody did not live a very long life due to a weakened body, but I was able to love on him for eight good years! He will always be loved and forever remembered. With over 400 dogs rescued so far, we ARE making a difference!!
Thank you for visiting and considering a rescue........................
