All applications submitted in 2021 have been purged.  You must resubmit your application for 2022

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.

Ellwood has been with us for 6 weeks and is still fearful.  He is mistrustful of men in general.

He was with an inexperienced foster and sensed that and took advantage of it.  He dominated them.  He snapped when they tried to get him 'off the couch'  

He is a fear 'nip and run' boy.  He is NOT SUITABLE for an apartment, as this will require leash walks and he is a flight risk until he learned to love/trust you.

He may not be ready for a while.  

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

This boy is in desperate need of a groom and quiet decompression home.  He's 'shell shocked'  He at some canned food at the vet, but has refused kibble so far.

He nipped (in FEAR, not aggression) his handler during pickup from his hell-hole.  He has bilateral ear infections.  He's received a 'slow release' anti-fungal and will need to return to the vet next week for a repeat application.  

His neuter appt is set for DEC 22 and you must be able to get him there and pick him up.

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.
