Story
Meet Sophie, an adorable 11 month old, 12 pound Yorkie Mix being fostered in Austin, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered. Update 1/6/26: A month after getting Sophie, she has proven to be a total love bug! And, my goodness, those ears! She is very energetic and loves to run around the yard. She is very playful with our dogs, and will even chase our 90lb dog around the yard; it is the cutest thing to watch! She also does great on car rides, and absolutely loves our kids. She is shy around new people, but with some patience, she warms up and the love you get from her is so rewarding. Sophie loves treats, so that has been a great way to help her get comfortable. Beware, if you sit down, you will have a dog in your lap. And if you get up, you will have a little white shadow following you wherever you go. Initial Bio 12/9/25: Sophie was shy and skittish when she first came to me, but spent most of the next day on my lap! She hasn't had any accidents in the house and slept in her kennel with no complaints. She's very friendly with my small dog and my daughter, and I'm sure the dogs will be playing in no time! She has also helped herself to the toy bin. She's very treat-motivated, and just in the short time I've had her, she's almost got sit (and wait for her turn) down. She's a sweet little dog!

Story
I had actually received Toby as a gift in 2022 . He was very quiet and didnt start barking until about 4 months into having him into my care . As far as his personality goes though , he is still very much shy but loves consistent company to attach to. He will eventually get to the point where if you close your door and he wants to hangout with you , he will sit against your door to let you know he’s waiting. He also does not sleep on his bed much as he prefers an article of clothing such as a sock for some reason . I was never able to find a solution and Im sure it was just because I was not an experienced animal care taker but he has some condition where he tends to leave the smallest pee puddles instead of just going pee at once when he goes outside . For that , we had to put him in diapers to avoid any leaks he may have tried leaving around the house . He loves to be in your space but may be over dramatic at times so dont get too startled when he yelps as if you stepped on him.

Story
Meet sweet Lulu, a 9 year old, 7 pound little Yorkie girl being fostered in Leander, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered. Pupdate 11/20/2025 Miss Lulu is still looking for her furever home, do you have it in your heart to take her into your loving home in time for the holidays? If so please contact us Wishing you a happy Thanksgiving. Pup-date 5/18/25: Little miss Lulu has settled right in at her foster home. She loves her own comfy area and bed. She lays watching all the happenings around the house and especially what her two resident foster siblings are up to. She loves being in the company of her foster parents and can be vocal when she wants their attention. She loves going outside to run the yard and also do her business. She has settled into a routine with consistent wake and bed times. She will let you know when she needs to go outside to potty and/or just explore. She loves to run the fence line and soak up some fresh air. Lulu still loves her meal times and is warming up to more and more human affection every day. Lulu really enjoys following her foster sister around outside and will be best with at least one or more pups in the house. She is sweet, loving, and super cute. Lulu has not met a stranger and really loves all people and animals she has come across. She does well on a leash, and really enjoys just being outside. Lulu needs a home where she will receive nothing but love and patience as she continues to blossom into a normal dog. Lulu's ideal home will be one with other small pups in the house and someone who is home with her most of the day. If you are looking for that one of a kind addition to you home, please contact her foster parents at uyryorkielovetx@yahoo.com or fill out an application using the link below this bio. Meet Lulu, a precious 7.3lb, 9 year old little girl looking for her perfect forever home. Lulu came to UYR about a week ago surrendered from a life of breeding. Although she was a little producer, it is evident she was cared for and loved. She came with some teeth decay and a UTI, but all her blood work appears to be good and she is scheduled for a spay and dental next week. She will likely lose the remaining teeth she has, which is not many. She already has the oh so cute tongue hanging out of her mouth look that just melts your heart for the first look. While we are still learning all there is to know about Lulu, we have noticed that she does lie human attention, likes to snuggle next to you on the couch, is somewhat puppy pad and outside potty trained. She had some accidents in the first few days, but we believe that was due to her UTI. The past few days have been nothing but great potties on a pad or outside. She will bark and run around quickly when she needs to out side. She loves to run in the yard and sleeps well through the night. From what we can see so far, she will need to be in an adult home with someone around most of the time. She has plenty of love to give and is excited to start her journey in her new forever home. If you are interested in adopting her, please fill out an application using the link under her bio on the UYR website.

Story
Meet Luna, a very sweet 8 year old, 7 pound Yorkie female being fostered in Leander, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered. Oh my goodness, such a sad story for this precious little UNITED YORKIE RESCUE nugget, Luna. Luna is 8yrs old and 7lbs of pure sweetness. Her story is another one full of sadness. Luna was found on a country road by an amazing gentleman. He knew who the owner was, as she had been on the road in the past. When he brought her back to the owner, the owner told him she didn't want her, and that her medical needs were just too much and she couldn't afford her any longer. Luna had eye infections, her ears were closed shut with infections. Her fur was missing on her little feet, under her neck and belly from untreated bacteria and yeast infections, and a massive mammary tumor on her belly as well from being bred to death!! Typical breeder dump!! I'm so blessed to be her foster mom! We are currently on a lot of meds to kill the skin infection, and we are on schedule to have her surgeries and pathology for her tumor on Jan 13th! Luna got the best Christmas gift and her New Year will be one to celebrate!! She is receiving the best of LOVE and desperately needed medical care each day. We cannot do this without you, as you are our Rescue family and friends. We have a generous gift donation offer of up to $5000 and we're looking for a match. We hope that you might be able to help us reach that goal! I'll always continue to share her story as we get this baby all the care she needs. You can Zelle United Yorkie Rescue at uyrtreasurer@yahoo.com, or go to our website at www.uyr.us, and click on the donate button on the home page! We love you all and Luna is so blessed to have her best life ever. I tell you, she is absolutely so so sweet and she is loving this thing called love that she's getting daily!! We thank you in advance for your donation and please, get your application in too. She will be ready for your love, so apply now!

Story
Meet Maverick, an adorable 7 year old (est), 10 pound Yorkie boy being fostered in Georgetown, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered. Pupdate: I'm still hanging with foster Mom waiting on my forever family to come and take me home! I spend my days walking with my foster family through the neighborhood, chasing squirrels in the backyard, and napping -- dreaming about that great family that's going to come and take me home forever! I know you're out there -- foster Mom says I'm safe here while we wait but I'm really anxious to meet you! Please fill out that UYR adoption application for me!!! Hope to meet you real soon XXXXOOOO Pupdate: I'm so looking forward to my new furever home and my new family! I know you're out there looking for me! I'm the easiest little guy ever! I love to go for walks on a leash, chase squirrels in the backyard, and follow you all over the house. I get along with everyone! Big people, little people, big dogs, little dogs and even cats! Please fill out the adoption application and come get me! I'm so excited to meet you and begin my furever happy ending! XXXXOOOO -- Maverick Hello World! I am Maverick and I am soooooo happy to be part of the UYR fosters looking for my furever family! I was very scared in the shelter and didn't know if I would make it out -- I was on the list to be euthanized!!!! Foster Mom and UYR said oh no, we need to take that boy and find him a new family -- so here I am ready to find you and give you all the love and friendship you'll ever need. I've already been to the dogter, had all my shots, and had my teeth cleaned. The dogter did give Foster Mom some bad news, I have a heart murmur. Not bad enough to need medicine yet, but definitely my new family needs to know so they can let my new dogter watch it carefully and get me on medicine when it's time. I guess a heart murmur means that I'm special and have lots of room for extra love. I love to go for walks every day. I'm not the kind of guy that wants to be in your lap all the time, but I do want to be in the same room with you in my own chair next to yours. I promise to always stay by your side and only bark when there's a reason, like someone at the door or a squirrel I need to go get. Please fill out my application and come get me, I'm waiting for you. Also, while you're here, can you please donate to UYR to keep all of us off the euthanize list? It's not the kind of list we want to be on..... XXXXOOOO Maverick

Story
Bubble Boy may be small, but his story is big. This little geriatric Maltese mix has clearly had it rough. When he arrived, he was severely matted, uncomfortable, and in pain, carrying the weight of long-term neglect on his tiny frame. But beneath the tangles and tenderness is a gentle soul who is finally getting his chance to feel safe. He's gotten a haircut and is ready to find himself a foster or adopter to help him spend his golden years in the comfort of a home. Despite all he’s been through, Bubble Boy has a quiet sweetness about him. He may be unsure at first — and who could blame him? — but with slow, gentle care, he leans in just a bit closer, showing us that his heart is still open and hopeful. 💛 What Bubble Boy Needs This special senior needs an adopter who can offer: Patience and sensitivity as he decompresses A calm, loving home free of chaos Regular grooming to keep him comfortable moving forward Ongoing veterinary care and lots of TLC as he heals and regains comfort Right now, Bubble Boy isn’t ready for long walks or big adventures. What he needs most is someone who can give him warmth, security, and the chance to finally relax. We wouldn't recommend him to live with kids, but think he could live with another animal that isn't too high energy and just coexists with him.
