Yorkie puppies and dogs in Seabrook, Texas

Adoption Fee: $200 Fostered in Texas Age: 10 years Weight: 4.8 lbs. January 1, 2023 - Harley is stable on the Lomotil for coughing. He does cough some when running and playing, but has not experienced any respiratory distress. His skin is doing really well. We changed his treatment and he now gets a spot treatment weekly of Dermoscent and a bath weekly in Dermoscent shampoo. This has been amazing for him. He has not had any episodes of GI issues and or pancreatitis but must remain on RX low fat food. (Royal Canin) If he does have breakthrough itching, he receives a Cytopoint injection at the vet but the treatments above have decreased that frequency dramatically. Harley is quite the charming little senior boy who loves, loves, loves to play fetch with his toys! He sleeps on a pillow next to his foster mom. Because he has been with us for some time, we do want to do a local, slow adoption so that the adjustment will be easier for him. He is located in Kemah, TX. 7/1/21 - Harley is feeling better and does not require further hospitalization for pancreatitis. We will be re evaluating his meds for collapsed trachea as this week was stressful for him. Due to Harley stressing easily and causing increased coughing from the collapsed trachea, we have decided to look for a home that is close to his foster home. He is being fostered in Kemah, TX. We want to be able to make it a slower adoption with Harley getting to know a new family before making a move. 6/29/21 - It is not a good month for Harley. He had an appointment scheduled for tomorrow for med review for the collapsed trachea; but woke up ill this morning. He was diagnosed with pancreatitis and admitted for IV fluids. Hopefully he will be feeling better in a couple of days. Please keep our little buddy in your prayers. 6/11/21 - Harley was seen at the vet today and diagnosed with a collapsed trachea. He had started coughing recently when barking and/or playing. He has been started on medications for 2 weeks and then will be re-evaluated. 3/30/20 - We have found that Harley has recurrent skin issues/allergies. Cytopoint has helped the itch, but his hair gets super oily only a few days after a bath. We are trying different shampoos to see what may work. 1/27/20 - Well, this is one we in rescue have heard so many times. Girl gets yorkie and he is her baby, girl gets married years later and has human baby, and the four legged baby must go. :( Unfortunately for Harley, the date they chose to let him go was Thanksgiving. We have promised Harley that his next Thanksgiving will be full of love, belly rubs, kisses and treats with a family that will never give him up. Harley is a sweet boy and sleeps on a pillow next to his foster mom's head. He gets along well with the easy going pups in the house, cuddling with a couple of them from time to time. He tends to be a bit nervous around a lot of activity, so we are looking for a quiet household. He is very good about going outside to go to the bathroom and comes right back inside. He goes to the door and looks at his foster mom to let him out. Keep in mind that sometimes they do have accidents and things can vary from home to home so don't expect perfection in the housebreaking department! Harley does have some skin issues due to allergies. This was reported to us when he was surrendered. He recently had some issues and responded well to Cytopoint. His teeth were a mess when he came to us and a dental was done where he ended up losing 22 teeth. He recovered quickly and eats very well! He is on canned food with some water mixed in. Harley's blood work looked very good. He does not seem to have any issues other than allergies ... oh, and he does have luxating patellas which is common in yorkies. Best to keep him from jumping up and down on things. Harley walks up steps to his foster mom's furniture! This is a charming little guy with a whole lot of love to share with someone.

Adoption Fee: $500 Fostered in Texas Age: 2 years Weight: 4.2 lbs. 3/16/2023 - Sushi recently started have some neurological symptoms and also painful yelping. We doubled her Gabapentin dose and she has, thankfully, shown improvement. Her post below from January explains her medical issues and care needed. 1/6/2022 - Sushi is a happy pup and loves to play with her foster siblings. She is coming along in the housebreaking department, but does have some accidents. She loves to cuddle at night with her human. She was the neurologist in November and her meds are the same. Sushi's medical/neurological conditions are not "curable" but are "treatable". She should be fine as long as her meds are continued. She does have occasional yelping episodes which may be related to fluid on her brain, or the fact she is a bit of a drama queen. Difficult to determine but thankfully they are short lived. She remains on: Keppra every 8 hours Gabapentin every 8 hours Omeprazole every 12 hours. She will need a follow up MRI in September 2022 and anyone interested in adopting Sushi should be able to provide neurology follow up, tests and meds as needed. 11/16/2021 - Sushi is doing pretty well. She has some occasional yelping due to what we assume is pain from fluid build up. She has not had further seizures. She will be seeing the neurologist this week for a follow up. She is on the following meds daily: Keppra every 8 hours Gapapentin every 8 hours Omeprazole every 12 hours 9/20/2021 - Sushi had the brain MRI today. It revealed that she has caudal occipital malformation (COMS) and associated congenital issues. These structural changes may lead to seizures and other neurological deficits. We are starting Sushi on an oral antacid which has been shown to decrease cerebrospinal fluid production and may alleviate clinical signs. She also will continue her anti epileptic medication. Additionally, she will be on Gabapentin as needed for pain. Results of the spinal tap are pending. Thank you to everyone for your kind words and for your donations that made it possible for us to find out what was going on with Sushi so that we can help her. 9/20/2021 - Due to increasing seizures Sushi has been seen by the neurologist and is having a MRI and other tests done this today. Will update as we know more. 9/1/21 - UPDATE: Sushi most likely does not have a liver shunt based on the CT scan; but, we are to repeat bile acids in 4 - 6 months. She likely has microvascular dysplasia. She has had some breakthrough seizures, so a neurological consult is scheduled for October 6th since it is unlikely the liver issue is what is causing these seizures. THANK YOU to everyone who has donated and prayed for Sushi. We could not do what we do for these pups without all of you.

Adoption Fee: $500 Fostered in Louisiana Age: 2 year Weight: 10.5 lbs. I think y’all have misunderstood me because of my nickname. I am, just like Dennis the Menace was, an energetic, loving little guy who is just a bit mischievous at times. Nothing a lot of exercise and understanding won’t cure. I love, love, love my foster home! I have pups to play with here and they have taught me to be a dog! When I first arrived in my foster home, I was what they call unsocialized. Patience and love has molded me into a fantastic boy. My foster mom tells me that all the time. She says I am a very good boy! I would love to stay here, but she said I need my own home with a more active human caring for me. The last two things that need work are housebreaking (but I will wear a belly band with no complaints) and my habit of barking at the TV. At first I didn’t even understand being on a lap and being loved on. Things like hair dryers and vacuum cleaners set me off. I am largely desensitized to most of the things that bothered me. I still don’t like the hair dryer in my face, but I actually don’t mind being groomed at all and I LOVE to be brushed in between groomings. I also love to sit on foster mom’s lap and I give kisses. These are things I have leaned here. At first I pretty much avoided human contact. Crates totally freaked me out. They are a definite NO in my forever home. I spent WAY too much time in one in my first year of life. The people who bought me as a puppy clearly didn’t understand how to socialize a puppy. Thank goodness they found YHR because I now see a happy life ahead of me! Oh, I have also learned to “sit” and “shake hands”. Foster mom says I am super smart. She tells me I would probably be great at agility. I need a younger, active forever home where I can continue to blossom! If you are not addicted to the television and love walking, maybe hiking, just generally doing fun active things that dogs love, I may be just the guy for you! Webster AKA Dennis the Menace – We know, we know. He is adorable. All fluffy and handsome and innocent looking, like a dog you can trust with your secrets. Don’t be fooled. Yes, he is a great listener. But inside that innocuous adorable black and tan package exists tons – indeed, whole square miles – of naughty. It's true: Webster can be a jerk, and there are many reasons you should not adopt him; but he can also be a kissie face adorable yorkie so there are also many reasons to adopt him. We believe in full disclosure and the right fit for each of our fosters. So....here goes the full disclosure on Webster AKA Dennis. Do you like watching television in peace? Not with Webster in the house. He is so smart, he will sit and stare at the tv and if the hears a dog bark or anything that sets him off, he alerts….. well, EVERYONE. Even if he is in another room and hears something on tv, he comes running to stare at it and bark incessantly. And his bark is LOUD! Do you own a crate? Do you plan on crate training your next dog? WRONG! Webster hates crates. He will actually rip things up and drag the crate around the room. There isn’t a pill made to fix this scenario. However, he is fine in a room with a gate or loose in the house if you must leave. Looking for a new dog that is past the destructive phase? Keep on looking! It’s like having a toddler in the house. If there is any paper on the counter where he can reach it or if it falls to the floor, he will quickly run under the bed with it to make confetti. He is food motivated, so you can divert his attention to pick up the pieces. Wanting a baby to watch movies with and share popcorn? No and No! Webster’s middle name is ENERGY. He will need another active pup in the home to play with and continue to learn from, as well as active parents that like to go for walks, etc. Placing him a home with any senior pups isn’t going to work as he can be aggravating and obnoxious while all along thinking he is being cute with them. He currently wears a belly band because he will still hike his leg, but he is getting better about doing his business outside or on a pee pad. He is not the dog to let outside and be unattended. If he gets bored and finds a way out, he’s gone. Also, he will need to be watched around open doors. He absolutely loves playing fetch with squeaky balls. He is getting better with grooming, but isn’t in love with the dryer in his face. He doesn’t really sleep with his foster mom and other pups. He usually ends up snoozing in chair or dog bed somewhere. This could change with less dogs in the mix. With all this being said, Webster has come a long way from when he first entered his foster home. But, let’s face it, unless you're looking for a dog that will keep you on your toes, laughing AND crying, Webster is not the dog for you. We know, we know. He's super loyal, cute, the smartest foster we’ve ever had, and a lot of fun; but as we said in the beginning, he’s kind of a jerk. But he's a jerk we believe in and have come to love. Crazy how that works, huh? After reading this, we're not expecting you to run and fill out an application. But, if you are as nuts about dogs as we are, love a challenge, are looking for the dog of a lifetime, we won't stop you. Go ahead, fill out the application…. But don’t say we didn’t warn you! 7/8/22 -My name is Merriam-Webster, but everyone calls me Webster for short. I know, I’m named after a dictionary. Wish my original humans would have looked up the word puppy in the dictionary before purchasing me and educated themselves so I wouldn’t be up for adoption right now. Anyway, this is my story on how I came to be a Yorkie Haven pup. I was purchased when I was just week’s old by an older couple that wanted a yorkie puppy. As is actually very common, this couple did not give thought to how much work it takes to take care of a puppy. Unfortunately for me, since I was the only dog in the home, I was not socialized with other animals, or too many humans for that matter. This made me turn into a “Dennis the Menace”/“Bull in a China Shop” without an energy outlet to save me. My human parents tired of me quickly and were fed up essentially because I was simply “being a puppy”. Since I can become afraid to the point of destruction with a crate, it’s probably safe to say that I was kept in a crate a good bit as punishment for my energy. SO, NO CRATES PLEASE! Foster mom says that I am just a little rough around the edges and with a little positive reinforcement, I’m going to be a great addition to a family. I’ve been told I can be very sweet. I’m not housebroken yet, and currently wear something called a belly band. They are pretty awesome since if I raise my leg to mark on something, I don’t get in trouble because I don’t mess up anything…. Except for my diaper. Lol I love to play fetch with squeaky balls and would love another active pup to play with and learn from. Going to a home with older dogs probably would not be best since I can be a bit of a pest. I reach out to play and hit them in the face with my paws and can be a badger at times. I’m sure I would be great as an only pet too as long as there’s plenty to keep me busy and I’m not left for long periods (remember, I was given up because no energy outlet made me a “bad dog”.) I like to start my night off sleeping in the bed with foster mom, but eventually get out and into a dog bed. It’s a little too crowded up there for me. So again, either an only dog, or just one or two more and the bed should have plenty space then. I do good with a bath, but the noise of the dryer and the blowing in my face, not a fan. I’m sure this will get better with time, but if you want to offer me treats during my spa time, I might come around a lot quicker. I’ll end my story with asking you to look up the word “lucky” in the Merriam-Webster Dictionary. You will find: 1. Having good luck; 2. Happening by chance; 3. Producing or resulting in good by chance; AND, 4. SOMETHING YOU WILL BE IF YOU ADOPT WEBSTER! I might have added that last one myself, but you will never know unless you adopt me now, will you? 😊

Adoption Fee: $150 Age: 10 years Weight: 6 lbs. Fostered in San Antonio, TX Email: yorkietude@yahoo.com Hi, my name is Willow, and my heart is somewhat of a ghost town. Until recently, I lived with the same mom and dad since I was old enough to remember. I know they loved me, but I spent a lot of time by myself and was never really socialized with people or other animals, and never received a lot of attention. So, I became this adorable little shell of dog that didn’t realize what it was to give and receive love. Fast forward to 7 weeks ago, mom and dad realized they were too busy for me and surrendered me to Yorkie Haven Rescue. So, here I am now, at the mercy of the internet, with only my cuteness to lean on, in hopes of finding another set of parents to ween me into a different way of living. And I KNOW I'm cute because foster mom tells me all the time! I pretend like it doesn't matter but it makes me feel so good to hear it. Currently, my potty habits aren’t the best, but with the help of my foster parents, I am getting better. I go straight out in the morning with the others and do my business. Sometimes during the day I will do my business outside, sometimes I go inside. It’s a work in progress. I currently wear those comfy diapers and that helps me hold it. As soon as mom bring me outside and takes it off, I go. Since my love as a young pup was turned into a wasteland, I have very little social skills with people or other dogs. There are two other small dogs in my foster home and I’m co-existing with them fine and observing how dogs really act. I don’t care to play with them and could really be an only baby. I was kind of like a flower in a pot that’s never been watered, sitting out in the sun, lifeless inside. But, slowly, with the help of foster mom and dad, I’m learning to blossom. They are teaching me love and affection. Don’t tell foster mom, but I am more partial to foster dad. So, a sweet, gentle male figure in my next home is a MUST. I don’t really like to cuddle but will lie next to foster dad on the couch and will get in foster mom’s lap sometimes. I want to be close to my humans, but not too close. I’m hoping, with time, I become one of those obnoxious yorkies that follows you everywhere and has to be with their humans non-stop. Once I arrived at my foster home, we visited the dogtor and he said that I needed a dental. I don’t ever remember having one of those before, and guess what, the teeth that I had left, HAD TO GO! Yep, I’m a toothless wonder now. Guess my teeth are another thing that didn’t get a lot of attention. It’s ok though, foster mom gives me soft food and soft treats, and they go down just fine. Actually, even though I don’t have any teeth, that doesn’t stop me from wanting the other dog’s food too. I’m a bit of a piglet. Foster mom puts me right in front of my bowl and stays there until we are all done so I won’t try to steal the others. I love my snacks! I sleep well in my crate at night since that is what I was used to, and I go in there periodically during the day to take a nap with the door open. I think I’m eventually going to like getting in the big bed and sleeping there when my right family comes along. When Foster mom puts me in bed with her for naps I snuggle right in against her so she doesn't get lonely. I don’t really like to play with toys, so that should save you a good bit of money. Foster mom works from home, so I’m not left alone much now. This is the total opposite from my last home. In my next home I choose for the life I’ve become accustomed to now. If you are looking for a social little princess, then keep on looking. It takes me a little while to learn to trust and love people and I’m just really not that interested in others. If I have a great mom and dad, my black book will be pretty full. I’ll learn to love them and I’m set in the human department. Also, I’m not huge in the affection department yet. I’m not really big on being held, don’t really like to give kisses, and a lot of the time, will choose to a dog bed on the floor where I can see my humans rather than in your lap. I’m really hoping you help change this aspect about myself. But SLOWLY please! Normal household noises don’t seem to bother me although I'm not a fan of thunder or cell phone ring dings. When I hear the storm roll in I climb into my foster dad's lap so he can reassure me everything is going to be ok. They've changed their ringtones so they don't sound like a bell and I personally think we're all happier that way. Why listen to a bell when you can hear a soothing song or happy tune? And I’ll make some noise of my own, along with the other dogs if they are barking at something. My personality is timid and more unsure than cocky and confident. I’m a really good girl that just needs someone to give me the time and patience I need to come out of my shell and learn how to be loved. Someone who is willing to help me, shape me, love me. In just the last 7 weeks, I don’t cower around foster mom and dad like I used to. And I would constantly hang my head low from being scared. I don’t do that anymore either. And now I do want to be near my people, not just on them yet. When my humans now come home from going out, I rush to them wagging my tail and get petted just like my foster siblings. And now when I’m put on the couch or chair with my humans, I stay longer and longer before retreating to the floor or dog bed. And, I’m getting a little better with the potty training, but please understand that this may take me a little while. So, if you aren’t ok with mistakes, I’m not the girl for you. I'm trying the whole exercise fad thing and humor my foster mom by taking walks with her but I walk VERY slowly so that she doesn't get too tired too quickly. I'm starting to enjoy sniffing the exciting things in the grass as we walk but I'm very thorough, so it takes a bit to move on to the next interesting smell. If you are still reading my bio, you just might be in the market for a sweet, older, gentle, awkward, timid, shy, little lady who has years left in her. And, if you are still reading and smiling to yourself, knowing that you could give me all the things I need, I just might be in the market for YOU!

Adoption Fee: $375 Age: 4 years Weight: 12.7 lbs. Email: yorkietude@yahoo.com Fostered in Katy, Texas 9/24/24 - Once upon a time, the most adorable little puppy was born. Yep, you guessed it, me..... Cap! I was so adorable that someone purchased me and my life as a pet began. This consisted of puppy antics, eating, sleeping, pooping, etc. I seemed to have blocked out the reason, but after about a year, I ended up in a rescue group. But it wasn’t long before I was adopted…. Since I’m so cute. After a little while, I got pretty comfortable at my second home which lasted for about 3 years. We had to part ways eventually due to the fact that I am not a fan of children and they decided to have 2. Children make me nervous, scared and this leads to nipping on my part. So even though I love adults, I’m going to have to insist on a home with no kids. So, that bring us to today where I am being fostered with Yorkie Haven Rescue. I’m doing great here. I love my foster mom, but there is no doubting the fact that I am more attached to men. When foster dad is around, “foster mom who”? I’m pretty much a flirt with all who let me be the center of their world. I’m always on the hunt for cuddles and snuggles and will be loyal – maybe too loyal as I can often be found in the bathroom with foster mom. There are 2 other fur babies in the house. I love playing with the one with the fuzzy tail, reminds me of my tail. The other pup is a softy and prissy, I can be a little rough around the edges and use my mouth a lot, so softy pup here doesn’t like playing with me as much. And I also really like to butt the other pups out so I can be top dog in the lap. I just need one other dog in the home that is sturdy and loves to play, but doesn’t mind me getting 80% of the humans’ attention. If I happen to stumble upon a home with no other dogs, my owners will need to big into play time. I am 100% a lap dog. If you wish to sit and watch those all-day Yellowstone marathons, I will sit in your lap and not move. Well, that’s a lie. I will raise up to give you kisses every now and then, but they aren’t sloppy, I promise. When I am around my humans, my tail is wagging all the time. I love being groomed, brushed or bathed. I know, I’m a freak! I basically am ok with anything that has YOU giving ME attention. If you haven’t picked up on it yet, I’m a pretty clingy dog. So, if having a shadow follow your every move and hearing the tap, tap, tap behind you everywhere you go isn’t your thing, you better not apply for me. Another thing I cannot live without is TOYS! And if you have a strong throwing arm, I will not hate you if you want to throw toys for me all day. I’m pretty agile and can jump on the sofa or use the stairs/bench to get in the bed at night. Oh, did I forget to mention that in the bed is where I have to sleep? Foster Mom bought me a fuzzy blanket that I sleep on when she doesn’t want me on her. I’m not one of those finicky eating little yorkies. Nope, no problems in the eating department. When no one is home, I have free roam of the house and I’m doing pretty good with my doggy diaper on. But when everyone is home, I use the doggy door like a pro. I like sitting on the back of the chair with the blinds open and staying vigil to protect the backyard. You might want to limit my time outside though because I like to chase the falling leaves, bark at the sun, howl at the moon, terrorize the chihuahua monsters on the other side of our fence, and act like a complete idiot at times. I’m just living my best life. I’m sensitive to noises and will bark at any noise I find suspicious, but as I am here longer and get used to the normal daily sounds, I am getting better. I’m just letting everyone know that there is a new kid on this block and they better watch themselves. I get a little timid with the normal household noises, vacuum cleaner, putting a new garbage bag in, etc. and I’ll will dart out of the doggy door. I also get upset if you fuss at me and sometimes if you move abruptly in the bed at night. I might seem like a confident, boisterous boy, but I’m very sensitive at heart. Well, I think I’ve let you in on all my traits, quirks, needs, dislikes and likes, and you can obviously tell from my picture that I’m handsome. So, you just have to ask yourself if you can handle owning the most dedicated best friend that anyone could ever find.
