Update 6/5/26

Hi! Blaze here, checking in to let you all know how I am doing. After some trouble with the resident cats in my original foster home, I have moved to a new home without cats. I really like it here! I am looking for a quiet home without cats or small children. I spend most of my day relaxing on the bed watching TV, though my foster mom discovered that I love to play when someone throws a toy for me. While I enjoy the company of other dogs, I do try to sneak their food, so I would need to be fed separately or be the only pet in the home.

Regarding my health, I was diagnosed with bladder and kidney stones. Surgery was attempted to remove the bladder stone, but because it was embedded, my vet decided to leave it to avoid damaging my bladder. I am now on a lifelong prescription diet, and the good news is that the stone is already shrinking! I have a follow-up appointment next month to check my progress. Despite this, I am house-trained and go potty outside. I do have some accidents at night, so I wear a belly band when I sleep with my foster mom and the other dogs.

My coat is also growing in nicely. I still have a few patches of itchy skin, but I receive two medicated baths a week which I find very soothingI especially love the exfoliating glove! My medication dosage is also being reduced.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email my foster mom. Additionally, if you would like to contribute toward my veterinary bills, any amount would be greatly appreciated.

Love, Blaze

Update 4/12/26

Four months ago, we got a request to help a hot mess of a dog who landed in a local shelter. This dog looked like he had walked straight out of a fire, skin blazing red, no hair, and in obvious discomfort. We called him Blaze.

Today? Well, have a look! His coat is slowly growing back. His skin is calmer. His spirit? Blaze NEVER gave up for a second.

Blaze is a 13-year-old Yorkie mix gentleman being fostered in St. Augustine, FL, and while he's made incredible progress, his journey isn't over yet. Blaze came to us with a bladder stone and kidney stones. We attempted surgery to remove the bladder stone but it was adhered to the bladder wall and rather than risk bleeding or bladder perforation the decision was made to try him on a stone dissolution diet and we HOPE the stones dissolve on their own. Blaze isnt exactly thrilled about his new menu (can you blame him?), but his foster mom is trying different brands and combinations. In one month, he'll have another ultrasound, and we're all hoping for good news.

Despite everything, Blaze remains unbelievably sweet. He still deals with some itching, and managing his medications has been a challenge every time we try to wean his prednisone he starts itching - but through it all, he just wants love. He leans in for pets. He trusts. He hopes. Blaze isnt a perfect dog. He needs to be on RX dog food and skin medication for the rest of his life. He isn't completely house trained and his vision and hearing aren't that of a puppy anymore. But what Blaze lacks in the perfection arena he more than makes up for in the sweetness category and HE IS PERFECTLY IMPERFECT TO US. He is so deserving of a forever home of his own. He just needs someone who will see his worth, his fight, and his heart and choose him anyway. Could you be that special person?

So far, his medical care has exceeded $2,500 and we're not done yet. If you can't adopt, please consider donating to help Blaze continue his journey to healing. Every dollar truly makes a difference for this little survivor.

Blaze has already come so far. Let's not stop now. Lets give him the ending he deserves.

Update 02/16/26

Blaze has been in our care for roughly six weeks. He came in really rough shape. His skin was literally red hot and painful and he had no hair. Well, Blaze still has practically no hair but he is starting to develop a little fuzz so we are hopeful! His skin is much better but his vet is pretty perplexed as to what is causing all his skin issues so we have commenced with some specialized (and expensive) testing to try to get a better diagnosis. Blaze has an enlarged liver so his doctor wanted him to have an ultrasound to rule out anything serious. As it turned out, his liver is just big but the ultrasound revealed other issues we didnt know about. Blaze has bilateral kidney stones AND a huge single stone in his bladder that must be so uncomfortable so as soon as hes cleared for surgery that will be addressed. Blaze is going to be a long-timer with us while he continues his journey towards health and adoption. We have spent nearly $4000 on his care so far with lots more needed so any donations are very appreciated! And please share!

01/27/26

Quick update on precious Blaze! What a difference 48 hours can make! You may recall, Blazes skin was so bad he went straight from the shelter to the ER on Saturday. And they worked their magic with multiple meds, an injection, skin soothing treatments and LOTS OF TLC! By Sunday the bright red had faded to pink and Blaze was no longer clawing himself from unbearable itching. Thats the good news! Blaze was seen by the general Vet today where he had lots of blood drawn that will be sent for testing so that we can get to the bottom of all Blazes issues. The Vet suspects he may have Cushings Disease but will need initial test results and additional diagnostics to confirm or rule out. Blazes foster Mom says he is over the moon sweet and the Vet staff marveled at how calm and tolerant he was. And doesnt he look adorable in his blue hoodie?!? Blaze wants to thank EVERYONE who has asked about him and donated to his care! He WOOFS YOU BIGLY!

Initial Bio 1/24/26: Welcome poor Blaze to rescue. Its been a wild week at UYR. Blaze is our 4th intake this week in FL alone. But how could we say no to this? Blaze was picked up as a stray running the streets. He was taken to shelter and scanned. He had a microchip! Yay! It was registered! Double Yay! They were able to track down his owner! Triple Yay! The shelter even brought Blaze home! This is the point in Blaze's story that's supposed to lead to a happy ending! Right?!?! WRONG! His owner who adopted him from another rescue at age 5 no longer wanted him at 13.5. He was too old, too much trouble, too expensive to care for, too EVERYTHING and JUST NO they do not want him anymore. So poor Blaze went back to the shelter with little hope and few prospects. Ironically, Blaze is his REAL NAME. You might think its a name we gave him because his skin looks like it is literally on fire and resembles that of a burn victim. When we saw him we knew we had to help him and help him we are. Blaze was picked up at the shelter by one our most experienced fosters who said he is in the worst shape of any dog she has ever pulled. He was transported straight to the emergency room where he is right now with his foster Mom and Dad receiving desperately needed (and very expensive) emergency care. We so hope we can ease his suffering and get him better fast! If you can help please click donate and share! Thank You!


To date we've spent $3830.38 on Blaze's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $2181.99 in donations.

Bruno Needs Help

Bruno

Bruno is a tiny tri-colored Yorkie boy with a HUGE future ahead of him but right now, he urgently needs our help. This precious little guy weighs just 3.5 pounds, is only 1 year and 10 months old, and is being fostered in Stuart, FL

THANK YOU TO BRUNO'S FACEBOOK DONORS

Many donors have remained anonymous

Update: 6/29/26

Hi everyone,

Bruno checking in to provide an update on my progress. My first given name was actually Louie, so that is what I have been going by here in my foster home.

Five weeks ago, I was picked up and taken to my foster home. The very next morning, I was rushed into surgery to repair a fractured leg with a small plate and screws. I am doing well, and it will take another three weeks to heal completely. As you can see in my new photo, the splint has been removed and replaced with a much smaller bandage. While I still stay in my pen, I am now able to walk and am enjoying short times out of my pen and leash walks. I am only two years old, so I am looking forward to the day I can run and play again.

Yesterday, I visited the vet for a wellness check, and I am healthy, except for some hookworms which I'm being treated for. I am scheduled to be neutered and have my teeth cleaned on July 29th. By that time, we should have a better idea of what I am looking for in a forever home.

I will check in again soon with another update.

Love,

Bruno/Louie

Bruno Update 6/4/26:

Bruno had a follow up visit with the surgeon yesterday. His bandage was changed and

sutures removed. He is healing nicely and has even begun to put weight on the injured

leg. He will continue to have weekly bandage changes until the splint comes off and will be limited to a small pen during the day and a carrier at night. Hes been a very good patient!

Bruno is not housebroken but has a good chance to learn potty manners once healed.

The vet suggested we wait to have Bruno neutered until after the splint is removed. He will need a dental cleaning and have his retained deciduous teeth extracted (baby

teeth).

Initial Bio 5/19/26:

Bruno came to United Yorkie Rescue from a caring owner. Sadly, after an unexpected injury, they were no longer able to provide the specialized care Bruno now desperately needs. His owner wanted the best for their little boy so they made the decision to reach out to UYR for help.

This sweet baby has a severe displaced distal radius fracture and is in urgent need of emergency orthopedic surgery. The estimated cost to repair Brunos tiny leg is $5,500, and because the fracture is already several days old, time is critical. The moment we learned about Bruno, we immediately said YES.

Bruno has now been safely picked up and will be evaluated by the orthopedic surgeon ASAP. Despite his injury, he remains loving, trusting, and absolutely adorable. He deserves the chance to heal, grow, run, play, cuddle, and enjoy the happy puppy life every young dog should have free from pain and limitations. Bruno needs a band of angels so let's dust off those wings and carry him over the goal line!

Please help us give Bruno the future he deserves. No donation is too small when it comes to saving this tiny life. Together, we can help this little fighter stand tall again.


To date we've spent $4476.67 on Bruno's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $3210 in donations.

Coal

Coal is a sweet boy . He is a 14 month old, 5-pound Pom/Maltipoo being fostered near Palm Coast FL. COAL HAS VERY SPECIFIC NEEDS FOR HIS FOREVER HOME - PLEASE REVIEW HIS PROFILE BEFORE SUBMITTING AN APPLICATION

THANK YOU TO COAL'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta, Lee Summergrad, Nestor Sanchez, Shenetta Copeland, Shenetta Copeland

Update: 6/25/26

Meet Coal, a sweet two-year-old Pomeranian with a big personality. As Pomeranians can live up to 16 years, Coal needs a dedicated owner prepared to care for him throughout all stages of his life.

Coal requires a specific environment to thrive:

- Dietary Needs: He has a very sensitive GI system and is a picky eater; he must strictly follow a specific diet to avoid an upset stomach.

- Home Environment: Due to his fragile nature and need for stability, Coal requires a very calm, adult-only home. He cannot be placed with young children.

- Other Pets: He is comfortable with other small, calm dogs and will play once settled, but he is very afraid of large dogs.

- Safety: A fenced backyard is required. Coal is easily frightened and can be a flight risk when anxious.

- Temperament: Coal bonds deeply with "his person" and needs constant companionship and reassurance.

His foster mother is currently working to rebuild his confidence and help him become more social, as he can be mistrusting of humans due to past experiences.

Adopting Coal will require a significant amount of time, attention, and patience. If you feel you are the right person to provide the specialized care Coal needs, please fill out the adoption application on our website.

Update 2/18/26

Meet Coal a tiny fluff with a big personality and even bigger feelings. Basically, he's what would happen if a teddy bear wished really hard to become a dog. Coal is not yet ready for adoption, but hopefully he will be soon.

Lets address the obvious: yes, he is ridiculously cute. Yes, we have received a mountain of applications. And yes we are still waiting for the one. Coal isn't just looking for a home he's looking for his person. So please read carefully, because this little fluffball comes with some very specific (and very important) needs.

First, Coal is still very much a puppy at just over a year old. Pomeranians can live 15-16 years, so adopting him is a long-term commitment. He needs someone who is ready to love and care for him well into the future through all the chapters of life.

Now, lets talk about mealtime. Coal is what we lovingly call a gourmet minimalist. He is a very picky eater and often requires encouragement, coaxing, and occasionally hand-feeding. He has been known to go on dramatic 48-hour hunger strikes. (Yes, he will out-stubborn you. Ask us how we know.) Patience is required and maybe a sense of humor.

Coal also has a sensitive GI system. Since coming into rescue, hes had episodes of upset tummy and diarrhea, resulting in vet visits and medication. He is currently being treated for parasites, and we are hopeful this will improve things. Its possible his anxiety plays a role were still figuring that out together.

And speaking of anxiety Coal has a lot of it. Emphasis on a lot. He will not do well in a home with young children. He needs a calm, stable, adult-only environment. He would thrive with another small, well-adjusted, calm dog who can model confidence and help him learn that the world isn't quite so scary.

Coal is shy when meeting new people and takes time to feel safe. His foster mom is seeing slow, steady progress, but Coal operates on his own timeline and he does not accept rush orders. When anxious, he can be a flight risk, so a securely fenced yard is a big plus for safety.

Because of his anxiety, we are seeking a local adopter within driving distance of Palm Coast, FL who is willing to do several gradual meet-and-greets before adoption. We know that's asking a lot but Coal deserves the very best chance at a smooth transition.

In short, Coal needs:

A calm, adult-only home

A securely fenced yard

Another small, calm dog

A patient, kind, committed human who is home most of the time

Someone willing to build trust slowly before adoption

Coal is not the easiest dog. He is not plug-and-play. But for the right person, the one who sees past the anxiety and into that tender little heart, he will be deeply, fiercely devoted.

He is a special dog with special needs, waiting for a special human who is willing to go the extra mile (or ten) to show him that love and safety are here to stay.

If you are that person please complete an application using the link below.


To date we've spent $502.41 on Coal's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $490.15 in donations.
Please donate!

Cookie (fka Beretta)

Meet Cookie (formerly Beretta), a 7 months old 8 lb girl. Cookie is being fostered near Clearwater , FL.

THANK YOU TO COOKIE'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Lee Sumergrad, Dan Clauser, Barbara Burgess, Nestor Sanchez, Barbara Burgess, Nestor Sanchez

Update 4/24/26

Cookie is a 9-month-old, 9-pound Morkie (Maltese/Yorkie mix) being fostered in Clearwater, FLand this little girl is bursting with personality!

From the moment she wakes up until bedtime, Cookie is on the move. Shes playful, curious, and full of puppy energy. Her absolute favorite place is a fenced backyard where she can run, explore, and hunt like the tiny adventurer she is. Fast as lightning and agile as a cat (though shes not a fan of them!), Cookie keeps herselfand everyone around herentertained.

Cookie is also incredibly sweet but she is NOT a sit-still lap dog, she will happily snuggle up once shes gotten her energy out. She thrives on companionship and has never been an only dog, so she must have another playful, energetic dog in the home to match her spirit. She spends her days happily romping with her foster siblings and would be lost without a canine buddy.

Like many puppies, Cookie is still working on her house training and will need a patient, consistent adopter to help her continue learning. She can get anxious outside of her routine, isnt a fan of car rides, and prefers the comfort of familiar surroundings over busy places like dog parks.

Cookies ideal home:

A fenced backyard for safe playtime

At least one other young, playful dog

Someone home most of the day

A family ready for all things puppyenergy, training, and lots of love

Cookie is a happy, healthy girl who just wants to play hard, love big, and be part of an active home. If youre ready for a fun, lively companion who will keep you smiling (and on your toes!), Cookie might just be your perfect match.

7/26

Hi there! I'm Cookie, a 7-month-old, 8.2-pound bundle of love, wiggles, and pure puppy joy. I may be tiny, but my heart is HUGE! I've already been spayed, microchipped, and had all my vaccinations and wellness check, so Im healthy, happy, and ready to start my forever life.

I adore other small dogs and would absolutely love a playful little best friend to show me the ropes so homes with another canine fur friend are preferred. I love just about everyone and everything except cats (I prefer my friendships canine, thank you very much!).

I didn't get to explore much of the world early on I spent a lot of time in a room or crate so a home with a secure backyard where I can zoom, sniff, and discover would feel like winning the lottery. I have happy puppy energy and am still learning that being alone isn't so scary, so I'd do best with a family who is home often and willing to help me build confidence.

I'm working hard on my house training manners. Like any baby, I occasionally have accidents, but I'm improving every day with consistency and patience.

Now lets talk about my favorite things: cuddling, being held like royalty, and claiming the softest pillow in the house. I am, without question, a professional pillow princess. I don't care if you're a man or a woman as long as you love me, I'm yours forever.

If you're looking for a sweet, affectionate little shadow who will adore you endlessly and fill your home with puppy kisses and happy energy, I'm your girl.

Joey

Joey is a 2-year old, 7 pound long haired chihuahua being fostered in Flagler Beach, FL.

THANK YOU TO JOEY'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta, Nestor Sanchez, Joel Tobiansky

7/4/26 Update:

Here is an update on Joey's progress as he learns to explore his new world and find love along the way.

After coming from a hoarding situation where he had emotionally shut down, Joey is making great strides in his foster home and continues to surprise his foster mom every day. His nickname is "Speedy," as he loves to run and play in the backyard with the neighbor's dog. While he is still mastering house-training, he is doing very well in this area.

Joey has discovered toys and is learning how to be playful. He has also become quite the cuddle bug, snuggling up to his person whenever possible. While he can still be very vocal—perhaps as a protective measure—he is certainly coming out of his shell, and his foster mom is learning to decipher his cues. Joey gets along well with other dogs and currently lives comfortably with a large dog in his household.

Stay tuned for more updates on Joey’s journey to find his forever home.

5/20/26 Initial Bio: Joey comes to UYR from a hoarding and animal cruelty case where he was seized along with 48 other chihuahuas and mixes. There were several deceased animals on the property and we are so glad Joey wasnt among them. Joeys life before rescue was a hellish existence but all that stops today! Joeys foster parents say he is smart little guy with tons of potential and a big personality! This handsome boy is already learning (or re-learning) basic commands like No and Stay, and hes eager to please the people he trusts. Joey appears to be potty trained and has done wonderfully with a consistent routine in foster care. He also settles nicely in a crate even spending several quiet hours alone without barking, crying, or making a mess.

Joey loves outdoor playtime and enjoys running around the fenced yard with his foster sibling. Like many dogs who come from hoarding situations, Joey has never been properly socialized and can be vocal when meeting new people or around other dogs. He tends to talk first with growls or warnings when he is unsure, but responds well to calm correction and guidance from experienced handlers. Once he feels comfortable, his sweet side shines through including giving affectionate kisses! One MUST HAVE for Joey is a secure fenced yard as he can leap like Superman over tall buildings with a single bound!

This clever boy will thrive with continued training, regular exercise, and a patient adopter who understands that confidence and trust take time. Joey is proof that with structure, consistency, and love, dogs can blossom into wonderful companions. A tired Joey is a happy Joey, and we know his best days are ahead of him!

If youd like to be part of Joeys continued journey by supporting him with a donation or an application then please do! And please share his story!


To date we've spent $232.47 on Joey's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $225 in donations.

Update 6/19/26: Yay!..Lily here - my last Ophthalmologist appointment is next week - can you believe it? I started out in a shelter after being surrendered by two different owners who felt they couldn't take care of me. At my young age, that's a lot of change. Then United Yorkie Rescue got me out of the shelter which was followed by loving care by my foster mom, lots and lots and lots of vet appointments and guess what? NOW I CAN SEE!!!!

I have made a lot of friends here in my town and everyone can "see" the difference. I have a spring in my step and when we go for walks my foster mom can barely keep up with me! Sincerest thanks to UYR and all of their lovely donors who made this possible and gave me a new lease on life!

Love,

Lily

Update 4/26/26: More GREAT news! Lily here to update you. I had my cataract surgery a week ago and had my first checkup and I hear I am progressing nicely. The coolest thing was looking around and seeing more than gray shadows and both my vet and foster mom always saying how much it warms their hearts. Oh and my eyes are brown, not white.

Here are some things I like:

* Riding in the car. Doesnt matter where we go as long as I am with my human.

* Working on my suntan - cant do that right now because the sun is bad for my eyes while I am healing.

* Going for walks - sleeping - eating. I

never skip a meal!

* Doggie ice cream - learned that at a doggie birthday party I went to

* Other dogs and people

Cant think of much I dont like except this stupid cone I have to wear while I am healing! I need to keep it on because if I accidentally scratch my eyes, that would be a very very bad thing.

I still have a few more weeks of Dogter visits until we know exactly how much vision I have. But thats okay. They keep telling me I am one of the best little dogs they have ever treated!

I am even more expensive than I was at the last update so anything you can donate to help my cause, is appreciated. Every little bit helps.

Until next time!

4/11/26. It's Lily back again with MORE GOOD NEWS! We got the biopsy results back from the lumpy things that were removed and I am in the clear - no "C" word. I have a lot of stitches right now and it was suggested I look like Frankenstein, but I am much too cute and adorable to look like him. Also, the stitches are coming out in a few days, my hair will grow back and I will be even cuter than ever - if that's even possible - not to brag or anything.

Onward and upward to my cataract surgery. That will happen on April 21 and I then I have a few weeks of lots of eye drops and wearing one of those awful cone things. But it will be worth it to be able to see better again.

A couple of new things my foster mom has learned in the two months she has had me:

I ride very well in the car

I am mostly housebroken. I go out to do my business A LOT, so if you get my cues, there will be no accidents. But I will use a pee pad if necessary.

I LOVE to roam around in the back yard and sniff and sniff. So a fenced-in yard will be preferable.

I walk well on the leash and love my outings.

I sleep a lot - so even though I am very young, I would not be the ideal playmate for your young dog, but I will be an excellent companion for you.

Literally everyone who meets me falls in love with me. I am really cute and very sweet. Right now, I am a pretty expensive investment so any donations you can make, no matter how small, will help me on the road to recovery and my Furever home.

3/25/26. It's me, Lily back again with my latest update. I have had a lot going on but have sailed through it like the little champ that I am! I keep hearing I am such a good girl.

Our next stop is back at our general vet to have some lumpy things removed after a punch biopsy showed that they needed to go! Full removal will ensure all is well and pathology will hopefully confirm they are okay and not diseased. After that, I have been approved by UYR to have my bilateral cataract surgery. The sort of "just okay" news is that, due to my damaged retina, we cannot guarantee how much of my sight I will get back and for how long. But my wonderful rescue feels that, due to my young age, it is worth the chance to try and offer me a better life, even if the future is not certain.

I I have impaired vision right now but my foster mom has been taking me all kinds of places and I adjust to my surroundings very quickly. I am very smart. As far as future treatment, I will need to use eye drops for the rest of my life and will need to visit an Ophthalmologist once a year.

Otherwise, my foster Mom keeps calling me her little angel and, even though I may be a little challenged, I know I would be your little angel for the rest of my life.

Oh! And we are spending quite a bit of money (Lilys total vet costs will exceed $10,000!) on my care so if you are able to help out in any way, we will greatly appreciate it! It's for a great cause!

3/5/26: Lily here! Well, I have lots of news to report and it seems to be all good so far as my Foster Mom says she is "Over the Moon" about my progress, whatever that means. She also said I must be feeling better because I have a little bounce in my step now! Amazing what love, safety, good food and a warm bed can do.

I had my dental today and my vet was very surprised at how much enamel is gone from my teeth. She said it might be a result of a bad breeder or it's genetic or both. They extracted 9 teeth and some were just missing, but I still have a lot of teeth left and I never seem to have a problem eating. I guess my breed is prone to dental issues, so if you adopt me, you will need to be sure and take extra good care of my teeth.

A couple of my lumpy things were extracted or aspirated, so we are waiting for the pathology report to return to make sure it's nothing bad.

Now here's the REALLY GOOD NEWS! We thought I was going to need leg surgery but my leg issue is the result of a trauma early in life, like falling, and the injury was never fixed. So I will need to take joint support stuff to keep my leg strong and I am not supposed to jump off of things like the sofa or the bed.

So we got to skip the Orthopedic Surgeon and go straight to the Ophthalmologist. I am going to see him very soon for a consult to see if we can do cataract surgery. So please stay tuned!

My foster mom keeps calling me an Angel. I am so very sweet and I give her lots of love and kisses and snuggling. I am very good in the car now too. Where I used to fidget, now I just sleep in my car seat. I love my walks and my favorite place is near to my human. She takes me out to do lots of different things and I am always a good girl. I get along with people, other dogs and...well....I love life!

Stay tuned for further updates on Lily's progress and foster mom is readily available to answer an questions you may have.

If you need a little angel living in your home, Lily is your girl!

Updated Bio 2/23/26: Lily went to the groomer today and just when we thought she couldn't get any cuter, she did! The groomer said she was an angel and everyone who meets Lily seems to feel the same way.

Lily is the sweetest little girl - affectionate, sleeps through the night, walks well on a leash, is good in the car (at times a little squirmy but not too bad) and likes to be near her person. She is mostly housebroken and readily does her business outside or on a walk, unless her Foster Mom misses her signal to go out - oops!

Lily had her Dogter appointment and, while we were not sure what to expect based on her seemingly scary conditions, we were, of course hoping for the best. And THE BEST is what we got! We need to take one step at a time but it appears that her medical conditions are treatable and manageable. Her tumors are just fatty tumors and are benign. She has one on her back end, which is being removed in a few days when she goes in for her dental. And her blood work had a few "off" levels which are being retested while fasting. Lily enjoys her food, so fasting is not her favorite thing!

Next stop is consulting with the orthopedic surgeon who has already looked at her Xrays and deemed that we have several options on how to treat the necrosis in her leg. Lily walks just fine and is not in pain, so that's another good thing.

Then on to the Ophthalmologist to look at her cataracts and decide a course of action. At her young age, removal of the cataracts is a viable option.

Lily has a lot going on for such a young little girl, a result of bad breeding, genetics or both. But the GOOD NEWS is that we are going to get her all taken care of and on the road to her Furever home! She certainly deserves it!

Stay tuned for further updates on Lily's progress and her foster mom is readily available to answer an questions you may have.

If you need a little angel living in your home, Lily is your girl!

Initial bio: Lily came into the shelter as an owner surrender who was facing severe health problems. Lily was obtained just 2 months ago from another owner as they were unable to care for her any longer. The previous owner provided us with the following information about Lily. She is independent, quiet, friendly to visitors, safe in interactions with children of all ages, has lived with cats and other dogs, sleeps in a pet bed, is housetrained and crate trained, will sit in front of you and stare to signal the need to go outside. Upon exam the shelter vet found a lot of medical issues including dental disease; bilateral cataracts (suspect inherited) with secondary uveitis; multiple masses; an anal mass (perianal adenoma vs ulcerated mucosa vs AGASAC); mild hyperbilirubinemia (suspect due to lipemia); left femoral head/neck & acetabulum changes (r/o avascular necrosis of femoral head vs neoplasia vs other), so Lily definitely needed help and we answered! Lily will be requiring a lot of care for a while so donate if you can!


To date we've spent $13446.78 on Lily's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $6476 in donations.

Sandy

Sandy is a 5 year old, 12 lb, Morkie, Being fostered in Palm Coast, FL Sandy must be adopted in Palm Coast or surronding area

b>THANK YOU TO SANDY'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta, Barbara Burgess, Saroj Pradhan, Nestor Sanchez, Stephanie Slack, Wendy Henry, Cheryl Scrupski, Yvette Vangeloff

update 7/6/26

Sandy is a beautiful 5-year-old 12 lb. Morkie fostered in Palm Coast, FL. Sandy came to United Yorkie Rescue when her previous family had to go overseas. She was way behind on her veterinary care and now all that has been taken care of by United Yorkie Rescue. Sandys heartworm test was negative, but since she was not on any monthly preventatives she will need to have another heartworm test done in 7 months. She has her spay and dental scheduled for July 29th and after she recovers will be ready for her forever home.

Sandy must be adopted locally to where she is being fostered in Palm Coast as she gets anxious in the car. Foster mom has been taking Sandy on short trips to get her used to being in the car. Sandy LOVES to say hi to her dog friends on walks at the park and goes on her hind legs when she sees a dog and hops over to them with her tail going a mile a minute and it is the cutest thing. This sweet, social butterfly loves making doggie friends at the park, but at the end of the day, Sandy is looking for someone who is home most of the day and thrives on being your one and only in the household soaking up all your attention, cuddles and love. Belly rubs are her absolute favorite and oh does she have the softest fur ever! She has a lot of fun playing with toys, especially the squeaky ones.

Sandy enjoys having a fenced in backyard to run around and explore and we promised her she would have one in her forever home, but she must also go on walks daily as this truly makes her happy. She has the most adorable bouncy walk and you can see the pure joy radiating from her. Sandy is the perfect little girl to take in her stroller to BJs, PetSmart and anywhere dogs are allowed or even if you want to bring her out to eat. Sandy is so admired by many people who constantly approach her just to say hello, and she brings so much joy to everyone around her and makes people smile. Sandy is an incredibly lovable, sweet, beautiful little girl who holds a very special place in her foster moms heart. We are looking for a forever family who will cherish her just as deeply.

Update 6/7/26

Sandy, fka Tootsie, is a gorgeous 5 year old, 12lb Morkie. She came into United Yorkie Rescue when her mom got transferred overseas and could not take Sandy with her. Sandy has had a busy few days since coming into United Yorkie Rescue. She had a 3 hour car ride to her foster home. Sandy was way behind on her veterinary care. She is now all up to date on her vaccinations, blood work, fecal screening, urinalysis and on monthly preventatives with no health issues noted. Sandys heartworm test was negative, but since she was not on monthly preventatives, she will need to have another heartworm test done in 7 months. Her spay and dental will be scheduled shortly. Sandy had a spa day and was a perfect little girl. I can now see those beautiful eyes of hers and she has the softest fur.

Although Sandy has only been in her foster home for 4 days, her foster mom can tell you that she is a beautiful, very sweet, lovable, happy girl who LOVES belly rubs always flopping on her back. She even sleeps on her back a lot with her paws up in the air and it is the cutest thing to watch. Sandy sleeps soundly through the night and in the morning her tail wags so fast when her foster mom says, Good morning Sandy. She is having a fun time exploring the backyard and running around. She is so happy out on her walks and does the cutest bouncy walk and makes people smile. Sandys foster mom adores her and is excited to take Sandy to all the places she enjoys walking and getting to know this precious little girl who already holds a special place in her heart.

Initial bio 63/26

Tootsie has just come into UYR after her Mom got transfered overseas and just could not take Tootsie with her. She reached out to us and we said yes. Stay tuned until we get to know this sweetie a little better.

Toto
Florida
Toto

Toto is A 9 Year old 5.5 LB yorkie boy being fostered ln Palm Coast, FL

THANK YOU TO TOTO'S RESCUE ANGELS!

DeAnn Deutsch, Julie Mansfield, Kathryn Lukach, Ellen Chokreff, Barbara Burgess, Elba Short

Update: 7/11/26

Toto is a very smart, well-behaved, sweet little character. He has a big personality that shines through the moment you meet him, and his adorable ways of communicating will keep you laughing.

Toto is TRULY the definition of a lap dog and loves nothing more than being near his human. If you are looking for a cuddle bug who gives lots of kisses, he is your guy! He is highly affectionate and would not be happy being left home alone on a regular basis.

Toto has no teeth, likely due to past dental neglect or breed characteristics, which means his little tongue is often sticking out. It only adds to his cuteness and does not impede his excellent appetite. He eats wet food and small, soft snacks, preferring beef as chicken upsets his stomach. You may just need to stir his food halfway through to help him finish.

He knows his name and comes when called, especially for car rides. He is house-trained, knows his manners, and will let you know when it is time to go outside. While he knows how to walk on a leash, he prefers short outings in the yard. A fenced in yard would be great.

Toto gets along well with other dogs and frequently initiates play like a puppy. For his safety due to his small size, he would do best with another small (under 20lbs) dog.

Toto is currently being fostered in Palm Coast and is waiting for his forever family. If you are looking for an adorable companion with a big personality and a lot of love to give, please fill out an application today to make this little guy's dreams come true!

Update:6/20/26

Say hello to the cutest little man on the planet! Toto is nine years young and a happy boy who loves being with his person at all times. He is a true "snuggle bunny" who enjoys physical contact and giving plenty of kisses. He also loves car rides and outings.

Toto gets along well with other pups his size and would prefer a home with a playmate, as he frequently initiates playtime throughout the day. He also loves to eat! While he has lost all of his teeth due to past neglect or breed characteristics, this does not hinder his appetite. Mealtime is his favorite time, though you will need to stir his food halfway through to help him finish. His hanging tongue doesnt impede him at allit only makes him cuter.

If you are looking for a loving, lifelong companion, Toto is your man. Please fill out an application at the link below or email his foster Mom with any questions.

Initial Bio 5/11/26: Toto may be tiny, but this little guy has a BIG personality and an even BIGGER heart! At just 5.5 pounds, this adorable 9-year-old Yorkie boy is being fostered in Palm Coast, Florida, and hes hoping his perfect forever family is out there waiting for him.

Toto came to United Yorkie Rescue from a loving owner who could no longer care for him. While this sweet little man is understandably adjusting to lots of change, his former owner says he is incredibly smart, loving, and full of charm. Toto does have some anxiety, so he would do best in a calm, adult-only home where life is peaceful and predictable. Another calm, confident doggy companion could also help show Toto that the world isnt such a scary place.

One look at Toto and you'll instantly fall in love. He has ZERO teeth left, which means his tiny tongue is almost always peeking out and honestly, it only makes him MORE adorable! His little tongue out smile is impossible to resist and perfectly matches his quirky, lovable personality. He absolutely LOVES his person and wants to be with them at all times. He also LOVES being outside where he can sniff and explore.

Toto is house trained and will let you know when it's time to go potty. Right now, hes also being treated for a nasty ear infection, but we expect that to be cleared up soon and are happily accepting applications in the meantime.

This tiny senior boy deserves a soft place to land, gentle hands, and someone who will love him exactly as he is tongue out, anxiety and all. And once Toto trusts you? Youll have a devoted little shadow and best friend for life.


To date we've spent $1449.03 on Toto's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $540 in donations.

Update: 6/19/26

We are so excited to find a wonderful forever home for Tucker, a sweet and gentle soul who just loves being around people, especially women. After spending a bit too much time on his own previously, we are looking for a loving family where he can truly feel like part of the pack.

"Tuck" is such a bright boy and would be delighted to have a small furry sibling to play with! He is the perfect companion for road trips and would thrive with someone who can spend lots of quality time with him. Hes also looking for a patient, kind owner to help him finish learning his house manners. He is also quite clever and will sneak out right behind you before you know it.

Initial Bio

5/3/2026:

It was a difficult decision for Tuckers mom had to make. Tucker, a 5-year-old Yorkshire Terrier, is looking for a new forever home where he can receive the time, attention, and companionship he truly deserves.

Today has been busy. Started with a car ride to airport in Clearwater. A nice gentleman took me on an adventure in a small plane. I have to admit it wasnt the best adventure for me. I dont think I like flying. I landed in Palm Coast where a really nice lady picked me up and took me home she gave me a bath and got me all cleaned up. I need a nap now

Mom tells us Tucker is a sweet little guy who forms a strong bond with his person. He loves going for walks, staying close to his humans, and thrives in a calm, structured environment. Hes happiest when hes simply by your side.

Tucker would do best in a home where someone is around more oftenwhether thats a retiree, work-from-home household, or someone looking for the perfect side kick.

Meet the outstanding Mr. Winston! He is a 6.5-year-old, 7.8 lb Yorkie currently being fostered in Palm Coast, Florida. Winston joined our rescue through no fault of his own; due to his owner's declining health, we were asked to bring him into our care.

Winston is incredibly talented and knows 30 different commands and tricks. Best of all, he is house-trained. He gets along well with the dogs in his foster home, and we understand he is also good with cats and children.

Our veterinarian has given him a clean bill of health, noting only a UTI that is currently being treated and will be cleared up soon. He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccinations.

Winston would love a home with a fenced-in yard and a small playmate. If you can provide him with an active, loving home, please fill out an application at unitedyorkierescue.org. You can find him on the website under the "Looking for Love" section.

Zoey

Zoey is a 15 year old, 5lb yorkie girl being fostered in St. Augustine, FL.

THANK YOU TO ZOEY'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Richard Shave, Sandy Pagnotta, Bret Park

Update: 6/29/26

Tomorrow marks three weeks since Zoey joined us, and we have learned a lot about her during this time.

Overall, she is a wonderful dog who enjoys having her own space. While she prefers not to be held or sit directly beside anyone, she does like to follow us around the house. She is most comfortable sleeping in her own bed in the family room.

I haven't heard her bark, but she moans when she needs something. When she does, I take her outside; sometimes she needs to go, and other times she just wanders. While she is potty trained, she does have occasional accidents, so she wears "prissy pants" at night.

Regarding her health, Zoey is on a special diet for Stage 2 kidney disease. We hope this helps her, though there are no guarantees. She also has cataracts in her right eye (with one starting in the left), but she still sees well. She is hard of hearing, but she responds if you clap your hands loudly.

Most importantly, she is a sweet dog who seems very happy and is enjoying herself. We aren't sure how much time she has left, but we are making the most of it.

Updated Bio 6/13/26

This tiny senior sweetheart has only been in her foster home for a few days, but she is already beginning to settle into her new routine. Like many senior dogs who have experienced big life changes, Zoey is still adjusting and learning that she is safe and loved. Every day, she becomes a little more comfortable. Zoey recently visited the veterinarian and is awaiting the results of her bloodwork. She will also need a dental cleaning. Overall, she appears to be doing quite well for her age. She has cataracts in her right eye and the beginning of a cataract in her left, and her veterinarian believes she has little to no vision in her right eye. She is also somewhat hard of hearing, but dont let that fool youZoey is a smart little girl who responds wonderfully to hand signals and quickly picks up on routines.

One of Zoeys favorite activities is exploring the garden. She loves wandering through the yard, finding a cool shady spot, and drifting off into a peaceful nap. She has also developed a healthy appetite and enjoys her meals, especially now that her kibble is topped with wet food. Like many tiny senior dogs, Zoey occasionally has accidents in the house. Her foster family believes she simply cant always make it outside in time. She is also known to wander around the house during the day and night, which may be her way of searching for the family and life she once knew.

Zoey is currently living peacefully with three senior Yorkies and two Siamese cats and has gotten along well with everyone she has met. This gentle little lady isnt asking for muchjust a soft bed, a patient heart, and a loving home where she can spend her golden years surrounded by kindness and comfort. If you have room in your heart for a sweet senior who deserves to be cherished, Zoey may be the perfect addition to your family.

Initial bio 6/9/26

Zoey has had a lot of changes recently. First, last November, her Mom passed away unexpectedly. Then the boy she grew up with, graduated high school and is going on to college, not without a lot of sorrow. Now, her Dad has to move and take a job where he will be traveling a lot. Her Dad reached out to us and we just welcomed her into UYR. Stay tuned to as we learn about this little sweetheart.


To date we've spent $2636.94 on Zoey's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $245 in donations.

Kentucky
Fiona Skye

Welcome Fiona Skye, a tiny 5 lb, soon to be 4 year-old Yorkie girl being fostered in Lexington, KY.

Initial Bio 7/10/26

Meet Fiona Skye, a tiny 5-pound Yorkshire Terrier who will soon celebrate her 4th birthday. Fiona is being fostered in Lexington, Kentucky, after being lovingly welcomed into United Yorkie Rescue as an owner surrender.

It’s hard to imagine now, but Fiona was once a beautiful parti-colored Yorkie with a stunning tri-colored coat. Sadly, untreated skin disease has stolen both her comfort and her confidence. Most of her coat is gone, she scratches constantly, and her little body is covered with painful sores and hot spots. She is uncomfortable, exhausted, and clearly hasn’t received the veterinary care she desperately needed.

On Monday morning, Fiona begins the first step of her journey to a better life. She’ll receive a comprehensive veterinary exam, blood work, a full skin evaluation, and treatment to finally bring her some much-needed relief. Once her skin is healthy enough, she’ll need to be spayed. Despite being only four years old, her teeth are already in terrible condition, so a dental procedure with likely extractions is also ahead.

Fiona’s transformation won’t happen overnight. It will take months of specialized veterinary care, medications, patience, and lots of love before she’s ready to find the forever home she deserves.

The good news? Fiona is finally safe. She’ll never have to suffer alone again.

Now she needs a team of compassionate people to stand beside her. Every donation—large or small—helps provide the medical care, medications, diagnostics, and surgeries that will give Fiona the healthy, happy life every dog deserves.

Together, we can help this sweet little girl grow her beautiful coat back, heal her broken skin, and remind her what it feels like to be loved. Thank you for being part of Fiona’s journey.


To date we've spent $0 on Fiona Skye's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $0 in donations.

Spanky

Spanky is a 11year old (estimated) Yorkie mix boy who weighs 10.5 lbs. He is being fostered near Elizabethtown, KY.

THANK YOU TO SPANKY'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Barbara Lalani, Paul and Patty Kirchner

Update 06/12/26

Spanky is a loving little companion whose favorite place is right beside his person. Whether hes curled up next to you on the couch, snuggled beside you in bed, or following you from room to room, Spanky is happiest when hes close to the one he loves. In fact, on a chilly night, this little guy doubles as a very effective personal heating blanket!

Spanky gets along well with the other dogs in his foster home and has been gentle with his foster familys young grandchildren. While he enjoys canine company, he prefers not to share his favorite persons attention and would truly thrive as the only dog in the home, where he can soak up all the love and affection for himself.

Spanky uses a doggy door and is making progress with his house-training, but he will need a patient adopter who can continue helping him learn that potty time belongs outside. He also requires daily eye lubricant to keep his eyes comfortable and prevent crusting.

If youre looking for a devoted little shadow who will love you with his whole heart and happily keep you company day and night, Spanky may be the perfect match.

UPDATED BIO

09/08/2025: Spanky is an 11-year-old boy who came to foster parents with severely crusted eyes and skin irritation. Upon a vet visit, it was determined that Spanky suffers from dry eye syndrome. He will be permanently on eye ointment, which he endures like a champ. After a few weeks of antibiotics, he is doing much better. His skin irritation is gone. A spa day with the groomer has this spunky boy struttening his awesomeness.

It is suspected that he suffered neglect in his previous life. He gets along well with other dogs, and he didn't mind his foster parents' grandchildren (ages 3 and 7). However, he is not properly house trained. We are working on that with him.

Spanky is a sweet and affectionate boy, who just wants to be special to someone who will love him. He wants to be your forever lap dog.

Initial Bio 7/9/25: Spanky has just come into Rescue; please stay tuned for more information.


To date we've spent $748.55 on Spanky 's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $546.78 in donations.

Flannery

Meet Flannery, an adorable 8 year old, 9 pound Yorkie female being fostered in Cottage Grove, MN. Adopters from the Twin Cities (MN), Madison, WI, or Des Moines, IA

THANK YOU TO FLANNERY'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta, Barbara Burgess

5/24/26 Update: Flannery had an excellent visit at the vet on May 9th! Her dry eye condition has improved since starting treatment with Cyclosporine drops. She will need her future person to continue these drops for the rest of her life, but shes doing wonderfully with them.

She weighed in at a perfect 8 pounds for her tiny frame. With the warmer weather, Flannery has been enjoying more time outside and absolutely loves exploring. Shes also continuing to do very well with potty training staying dry in her kennel overnight and in her pen during the day, with only the occasional accident if she isnt taken out regularly.

One of her favorite things right now? Playing outside with her pink squeaky bone and snuggling on the couch.

Update 4/27/26: Flannery is doing very well; she recovered nicely from her dental procedure and cyst removal. She has a follow-up appointment for her dry eye in two weeks but has been doing well; she takes the drops like a champ without complaint sitting nicely. Her weight is perfect, she has a great appetite and were working on pausing before eating to learn some control. She continues to sleep nicely in her kennel at night and goes into it on her own for naps. We have a good routine down, and we continue working on consistency with potty training with frequent trips outside. She consistently has a dry pen during the day. Wed like to pursue a home with a fenced yard, she loves running outside whenever she gets the chance to explore. She gets playful, loves back scratches, and snuggles on the couch.

Update 3/24/26: Flannery had her dental last week and did very well; she had two teeth pulled and four cysts removed. The staff loved her disposition and the vet was very happy with her health condition. Treatment of dry eye is going well, and the luxating patellas are stable, she's active and doing well. Her favorite place is anywhere she's snuggling. She's been sleeping in a crate at night and loves being with her person...she's a mellow gal.

2/8/26: Flannery had her first dogtor appointment. Her evaluation reflected she is past due for a dental. Additionally, Flannery is being treated for eye irritation, potentially a dry eye condition. She's is scheduled to have a dental procedure on 3/20, at which time she will have some cysts removed and her eye condition and luxating patellas will be rechecked to determine if any additional medical care is needed.

It was initially presented that Flannery and her sister Harper Lee were a bonded pair, however after further assessment it appears the girls would do better in separate homes. Please continue to check back for updates as we further assess medical needs.

When Flannery becomes available, applicants will need to live within a 2-hour radius of St. Paul, MN, so we can provide local support if needed. Flannery is part of a bonded pair, and must be adopted with her sister Harper Lee. We anticipate high vetting expenses before she's ready for her forever home and would greatly appreciate donations to her with her upcoming medical care. Questions? If you have questions not covered in her bio below, please reach out to her foster at mnyorkiemom@gmail.com.

Initial Bio 2/4/26: Meet Flannery, a tiny soul with a huge heart and a penchant for snuggles. At eight years young, this sweet girl was raised in a very loving home, and it shows in her social nature. She is a "people person" through and through. Please check back for updates as we continue to evaluate Flannery.

Lily Grace
Texas
Lily Grace

Meet Lily Grace, a precious 3 year old, 7 pound Yorkie girl who is Heartworm Positive. She is being fostered in McKinney, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO LILY GRACE'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Celeste Bichey, Cindy McKimm, Dana Barao, Veronica Gonzales, Wendy Fuhrmaneck, Janice Martin, Teresa Gill, Roxanne Balmas, Wendy Fuhrmaneck, Scott Atkins, Emilio Natividad Jr., Robynn Powell, Melina Dipaola, Julie Ann Levy, Alyssa Valdovinos, Catherine Intravia, Cindy Mitchell-Clark, Michelle Mele, Christine Wesp, Leslie Riegle, Mary Hanke, Carol Nelson, Dirna Shipley, C.V. Moore, Lynne Turner, Carol Gostomski, DeAnn Deutsch, Rebecca Uselton, Jessica Forrester, Cindy McKimm, Veronica Gonzales

Update Update 6/15/2026:

If you saw the early rescue pictures of Lily Grace, you may not recognize her today! She is making wonderful progress! Her recent blood work results came back as the vet hoped, with some counts even exceeding expectations. Signs that her liver is continuing to improve and handling the heartworm treatment well. Weve introduced a liver supplement to keep everything on track, and with her appetite finally stabilizing, she is successfully starting to gain some weight.

Lily Grace is showing more confidence and personality everyday. Still a snuggly and affectionate little girl, she's now becoming curious and playful. Her eyes are brighter, her hair is shinier, and her ears stand up a little taller (even the ear that doesn't stand up!).

If you read the earlier bios, you know this is a marathon not a sprint. We are a few miles in and feeling incredibly optimistic, but we still have a long road ahead. Lily's next milestone is a heartworm injection on July 13th. Until then, she'll get all the snuggles and food she can handle.

We are so grateful for the love and support we've received for Lily Grace. Please keep sending your support and prayers, and we will keep you updated on her journey!

Update 5/20/26: Thank you for all the prayers, donations, and love sent for precious Lily Grace. After extensive testing, treatment, and monitoring, Lily is officially stable and resting her paws in her foster home!

Lily is pure joycomplete with a wagging tail and bright, soulful eyes. She is the perfect snuggle companion and will dance on her back legs to say "hi" or ask to be picked up. Gentle and sweet, it's clear she was always supposed to be part of a family. She's quickly learning the ropes from her foster brother and seamlessly fitting into the routines.

While her initial stability is an incredible milestone, Lilys true healing journey is just beginning. She is heartworm positive, which requires several months of intensive treatment (but we're expecting a full recovery). Once treatment is completed, she'll need to be spayed. Lily also has follow-up testing for her liver over the next several weeks, and is being treated for ear infections in both ears. BUT after enduring so much, Lily's immediate list wraps up with the best kind of medicine: a luxury day at the 's-paw' and a much-deserved mission to gain a pound of love.

Her happy spirit doesn't let anything get her down, and she has captured the hearts of her medical and foster care teams every step of the way. Please continue to pray for and support Lily Grace, and we promise to keep you updated on her journey.

Initial Bio 5/16/26: Lily Grace, a 3yr old 7lb precious baby, found herself in Dallas Animal Shelter severely ill and needing a rescue before euthanasia which was set for today. United Yorkie Rescue stepped up and went into action. Her proteins were unreadable, greater than 12 upon intake. We arranged for foster and immediate care with Dallas Veterinary Emergency Group. She is receiving care as I write this. Lily most definitely has issues with her liver. We could possibly be looking at a possible liver shunt. The ER will pull bile acids tonight, among all the other treatments they have on board. Please consider a donation for this precious angel. Donations can be made through Zelle at uyrtreasurer@yahoo.com or as a guest by touching our donate button on our website at www.uyr.us. We have submitted a $4000 plus deposit for her upfront care. Bless you all and thank you! If you cannot donate, please share as others may be touched as well.


To date we've spent $3153.09 on Lily Grace's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $1675.13 in donations.
Please donate!

Millie
Texas
Millie TX

Meet Millie, a precious 8 pound, 3 year old Yorkie mix being fostered in McKinney, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO MILLIE'S RESCUE ANGELS!

David Lavine, David and Diana Lavine in honor the the passing of sweet Koa. UYR gave him the best life possible, Kip Finch, Sandy Pagnotta, Robynn Powell

Update 6/28/26: Wow, can you believe summer is here already? It feels like ages since foster mom has updated my bio.

Just like before, you know Im heartworm positive, and we are taking care of it. I have become quite the mamas girl, always following Foster mom around. I have some amazing ears because she cant leave the any room without me, even if she thinks Im asleep!

Im not a huge snuggler and rarely sleep in the bed, but I do love to sleep in all the beds tucked away in the rooms around here. FM calls me Goldilocks because I keep moving from one bed to another. I dont play with toys much and Im not a kisser, but I do love to lie next to you when were watching TV.

I am a pretty easy-going girl. I dont play with toys much, but I do love to play with other dogs that like to play, like little Jolie. Im really looking forward to Miss Penelopes puppies when theyre old enough to play.

I love to be in the big backyard and soak up the sun. FM has to come get me because she thinks the concrete is too hot for me to lie on

I can be a little picky with my food, but Im definitely not picky with treats. I love the dental bones, dried sardines, dehydrated beef liver cubes and biscuits. I get some pretty good treats here, for sure.

So, thats pretty much it. Im just waiting until September to take my microfilia test, and were all hoping it comes back negative so I can be adopted then. But Ill need to be spayed and possibly have a dental, so we cant give you a specific date for when I can truly be adopted by my new family.

So, until my next update, keep those pawsitive thoughts about me!

Woof,

Sweet Millie

Bio update 3/31/26: Hello gorgeous spring time. It's about time for me to let you all know what's going on in my life here at Stickhorse Ranch in Mckinney.

As in my prior biography, you know that I am heartworm positive when I first was rescued by UYR. I started my heartworm treatment. Our Dogtor says that in six months I need to get one of those heartworm test things and take another big shot. We're hoping I will be heartworm free in August but we will continue to finish the treatment being the last shot would be around February sometime.

I am still just a very chill girl here. I am not a barker. I am still working on my potty training and trying to teach Jolie that too. I am am a watcher of all things. I do have a new job though. Foster Mom has two new foster puppies. One of them is Pip and the other one is Jolie. On day two of Jolie must've being here she must thought I was a mommy and tried to nurse from me. I let her know that we will not be doing any of that with a grrrr. Well since after that, she's adopted me as her surrogate mom so I kinda adopted her as my surrogate daughter. We play a lot together, games like chase outside/inside and tug-of-war and I'm gonna steal what you have and I know you're gonna try and steal it back games. She is one busy little girl and I do get exhausted. I am so gentle with her, but I am teaching her that biting is not a nice thing and both foster mom and I try and redirect her into chewy or yak bones. Her teeth are really sharp. I forgot how sharp puppy teeth were! I am a very healthy girl.

I need to finish my heartworm treatment and get spayed. So if you have any questions about me, please feel free to reach out to my fabulous foster mom stickhors@gmail.com PS my direct application link is at the bottom of my bio.

Initial Bio 2/14/26: Millie was rescued by UYR from the Killeen Animal Shelter.

On January 29, 2026, she underwent a Comprehensive Intake Examination at Crossroads Veterinary Hospital. Her blood chemistry and CBC were performed, and she was checked for a microchip. Unfortunately, she did not have one, but will receive one when she is spayed. She also tested positive for microfilaria, and has commenced heartworm treatment with doxycycline and prednisone.

Millie captured my heart within a few days. She remains quiet and cautious, but is gradually becoming more comfortable in her new environment.

She still requires a rabies shot, a spay procedure and must have her Microchip inserted. She continues her heartworm treatment plan, and must remain on her HeartGard Preventative monthly.

We are currently accepting applications for her, but completing her Heartworm treatment plan will take several months.

Millie is unlikely to be available for adoption until the end of May or the beginning of June. Please stay tuned as we learn more about this sweet girl. There will be further updates to share.

If you have any questions, you may contact her Foster Mom at Stickhors@gmail.com.


To date we've spent $1357.45 on Millie TX's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $525 in donations.

Ollie
Texas
Ollie TX

Meet Ollie, a handsome 9-10 pound, 5 yr old Morkie (Yorkie/Maltese) boy being fostered in Chico, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO OLLIE' RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta, Yvette Vangeloff, Wendy Henry, Cheryl Scrupski, David and Diana Lavine, Patricia Elaine Nelson, David and Diana Lavine

Bio Update 5/25/26: Ollie has been in rescue for a while but is now ready for his special family that is ready for a playful, loving boy that can bring lots of laughs and fun.

Ollie is an over-the-top playful boy that will need a securely fenced space to run and a playmate that would love to challenge him to play.

He came to UYR after he was found on a dark lonely Kansas field in the middle of the night. Fortunately a visitor to the area was able to rescue him and brought him to Texas on her way back home.

Since he was able to run free he needed some space and time to adjust to a backyard and learn to play in a family friendly environment. He has been with one of our fosters who owns a beautiful kennel in North Texas...he loves everyone, small to medium dogs…not fond or larger dogs..but will play play play.

A perfect family would be someone who is used to a high energy, lovable boy. He likes to challenge a leash but for sure with one on one training he is so smart and savvy that he will catch on quickly.

Ollie is vetted and up to date on vaccines…not sure on the potty training since he has been in an open environment but with a family that is ready for this sweet baby he ll catch on quickly.

Children under the age of ten most likely not be the best since he has high energy.

If you would like to see if Ollie is the one for your family please complete the application below

Update 3/24/26: Look at this precious baby Ollie!! He has come such a long way. Ollie is totally vetted and waiting for you to bring him home!

Ollie was so unsocialized when he came to us, but today, he is a sweet healthy baby that has learned so much. Ollie is such a fun loving baby that most definitely needs a yard to run and play in. He absolutely loves to play chase with his fur sibling friends. We feel he is doing well on his house manners, but with every new baby, they sometimes need your directions as well. He gets along with most dogs but he is not so keen on the larger breed. They are still very intimidating to him. We are not sure if there was one in his past life that made him feel uncomfortable, but we would like for his forever family to know he cowers away and shows fear when they are present.

As you can see, Ollie is just adorable. If you can provide a yard and love, that is all this sweet boy needs! Please send your application to the email below and let's get this baby his furever home!

Update 11/2/25: Ollie is a bundle of energy and love. He is up to date on all vaccines and he also got neutered. His favorite things are going for walks and watching squirrels. He loves his squeaky toys! He gets along with his foster mom's other foster baby. Ollie is ready for his forever loving home!

Initial Bio 10/19/25: Ollie is a Morkie with a BIG heart. He is a shy boy, and may be a little shy when you first meet him. But just give him a little time and patience and he'll be your most loyal cuddle buddy.

Ollie is not fully house trained, but we are working on it. He is about 9-10lbs and will be going to the doggy doctor soon. He will be getting his vaccines, and a neuter. We will keep you updated. Ollie will need a yard with a fully secured fence because he loves to run and is fast. If you feel that Ollie would be a great fit for you and your family, please submit an application using the link below. Or email his foster mom.


To date we've spent $2495.97 on Ollie TX's vet bills, but with your support we've collected $1210 in donations.

Penelope

Meet Penelope, a sweetheart of a Yorkie mix girl who is 4 years old and weighs in at a healthy 18 pounds. She is being fostered in McKinney, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO PENELOPE'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta, Kathy White Williams, Tracy Cunningham, David and Diana Lavine, Dawn Rountree, Barbara Burgess, Wendy Fuhrmaneck

06/28/2026 Update: Hi everyone! Its Penelope here, and I wanted to give you a quick update as we kick off our summer in Texas.

Ive just moved to Stickhorse Ranch in McKinney to my new foster home. Im still getting used to everythingthe other fosters, the residential dog, and this huge, fenced-in yard that Im loving to explore, even if Im still getting the hang of it!

So, you can call me Mama Penelope, as Im expecting some little pups. When I went to the vet for Foster Moms check-up, they did a radiograph, and the amazing doctor counted five little skeletons. She thought there might be one hiding behind them, so Im guessing Ill have five or maybe six puppies in a couple of weeks.

Ive been showing off my personality little by little here. Im a very sweet girl, even the vet said so. Im just starting to snuggle as I get more comfortable. Ive only picked up one toy so fara little squeaky one. I do love my yak bones, though, and Ive got strong teeth and a very strong jaw, so theyre really fun to chew on. Ive only had a couple of accidents in the house, but thats because everythings pushing up against my bladder, and sometimes its really hard to hold it in, and I havent learned how to tell everyone I need to go outside. But Im learning to follow what the other four-legged critters do here.

Right now, were all focused on making sure I get really good nutrition and that I learn where my little whelping box is, as the vet suggested it might be in two weeks when my puppies arrive. I weighed 18 pounds when UYR rescued me, and now I weigh about 23 pounds, which has to be all that puppy weight!

Thats all for now. After I have my puppies, Ill make sure Foster Mom writes a short updated bio so everyone knows how many little ones I had and how Im doing as a mama. Ive been a mama before, so were all hoping Ill be a fabulous mama again.

So, until I have my little ones, please keep me in your thoughts that I have a very safe delivery.

Ruff Penelope

Initial Bio 5/25/26: Bio 5/25/2026. Oh my goodness, I dont know where to start with Penelopes sweet and adorable personality..

Penelope came into rescue on 5/19 and from the minute she came into her foster home she shined with sweetness and so much love. We discovered after a couple of days she had an upper respiratory infection and we immediately started her medical care. The thing about Penelope is that after being in a shelter and becoming ill she never stopped being a kind gentle soul and showed us how much love and patience she has.

In my time as a foster I havent seen the most laid back, calm, sweet, snuggle bunny,

all in one baby. And after having a beautiful heart she is potty trained, but beware she is a lap baby and knows how to snuggle comfortably at night time. I cant say enough about this very laid back girl.

She gets a long with other dogs but doesnt show much interest in playing, just hanging out and following her foster mom everywhere..I am her life. She does like men but havent seen her around children.

Oh yes, hardly barks if so only for a short minute.

Penelope would love a family that is home most of the time since she is quiet and loves human company; someone that is looking for a calm, low key girl.

She is currently getting vetted and will be spayed once we are completely over her medications.

You wont be disappointed with bringing this girl into your home. Please complete the application below if you would like more information on Penelope

Pepper
Texas
Pepper TX

Meet Pepper, a sweet Yorkie mix girl, 3 years old and 10 pounds being fostered in Leander, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO PEPPER'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Sandy Pagnotta

Initial Bio 7/2/26: Pepper is an estimated 3 year old, 10lb girl that came to UYR with a partner (Rosie) from a local shelter. The two were found wondering together by a busy intersection and luckily a kind passerby intervened and got them to the shelter. The shelter staff reached out to UYR to ask if we could bring them into our rescue. Pepper is very healthy, with the exception of currently fighting a parasite infection. She is underweight, but has a great appetite and will be back to normal in no time. She has the cutest underbite and is the most loving and sweet little girl. She loves cuddling on the couch, giving kisses, and will follow your every step. She still has some puppy energy and likes to play with her shelter mate Rosie chasing each other around the house and yard. She is working on her potty habits, but has a good role model in her foster home to learn from. We are still getting to know her personality and she will need to be spayed prior to adoption, but should be cleared of her parasites, spayed, and fully recovered in the next few weeks. If interested in adopting her, please fill out an application and contact her fosters at uyryorkielovetx@yahoo.com with any questions.

Rambo

Rambo TX 26

Meet Rambo, a precious 2 year old, 5 pound Yorkie male being fostered in McKinney, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.

THANK YOU TO RAMBO'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Virginia Decordova

Update 5/18/26: I recently went to the vet and learned I am now 8 lbs! My Foster Mom says I am a sweet boy with LOTS of energy. I LOVE to play with my toys, my humans, and other dogs. From what my Foster Mom has seen I get along with dogs and humans of all ages and sizes - except for one condition. My Foster Mom noticed that when a man is standing or walking past me - I get anxious and will growl and bark. We dont know the full story of my past but for some reason I dont feel very safe when a man is standing over me or walking by but once he sits down and lets me come to him I warm up very quickly! I also dont like cars that drive past me - I will grow and bark and try to chase them but my Foster Mom is helping me with that. I also dont like kennels! I am working on house training and wear belly bands while my Foster Mom helps me learn to use a bell to let her know when I need to go outside. I sleep through the night curled up next to my Foster mom. I am food motivated and know how to sit on command!

4/11/26 Initial Bio: Please meet this adorable little guy Rambo. Rambo is just 2 yrs old and a mere 6lbs. He has come into rescue after developing some behavior issues due to a past situation in his young life. He is currently getting the help he needs to process his past with an amazing group. I feel certain, this precious little boy will be back and ready for a furever home in a few weeks.

I think I would like to place this little with a woman who can be home with him most of the day. He is good with children and this is the most I know at the moment. We hope that he will adjust with a man in his life and hopefully like a sibling to play with. He loves his squeaky toys so his puppy qualities are there!

Anyone who knows yorkies, know that it doesn't take much for a baby to lose trust...but we are giving him the best since he so deserves the best!! Please feel free to reach out to foster mom at the address below if you have any questions.

Rosie TX

Meet Rosie, a sweet 3 year old, 8 pound Yorkie Mix girl being fostered in Leander, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered>

THANK YOU TO ROSIE'S RESCUE ANGELS!

Dawn Rountree, DeAnn Deutsch

Initial Bio 7/2/26: Rosie is estimated to be 3 years old and weighs 8lbs. She came to UYR with a partner (Pepper) from a local shelter. The two were found wondering together by a busy intersection and luckily a kind passerby intervened and got them to the shelter where we were requested to bring them in to UYR. Rosie was severely matted and underweight when she got to her fosters home. We got her to the vet for her bloodwork and vaccinations the next day and then had to schedule a sedated grooming to remove all of her mats. She is feeling a little self-conscious now due to missing most of her luxurious coat, but it will grow back in quickly. Rosie is super sweet and loves cuddling in any lap that will allow it and is like a shadow around the house. She has a great appetite and should gain some weight to regain her normal figure. She will need to be spayed and recover prior to adoption, but that should all happen in the next few weeks. She loves playing with her foster sibling, Pepper, and also enjoys her down time resting in her bed or your lap. If interested in adopting her, please fill out an application and contact her fosters at uyryorkielovetx@yahoo.com with any questions.

Virginia
Layla

Courtesy Listing for Layla is a sweet girl. She is a 11 yrs old Yorkie being fostered near Richmond, VA.

Layla: Looking for Adoption in VA, MD, NC areas, Transportation assistance is Available. She is being fostered by another rescue dancersbridgedogrescue@gmail.com

Layla is an 11 year old Yorkie who was raised from a puppy by one owner who unfortunately had a stroke and was no longer able to care for her. She was given to DANCERS BRIDGE DOG RESCUE in Richmond VA. She was adopted out to a family. However after 14 months, she was returned to the rescue for having accidents in the house.

She was stressed at the rescue, surrounded by 10 other dogs, so was fostered short term while she waited for her new adopter who was scheduled to pick her up on Memorial Day weekend. While at the foster home, they noticed her drinking a lot of water and Layla was taken to the VET and diagnosed with Stage 2 Kidney disease. When the new adopters heard the diagnosis, they backedc out.

Now Layla is stuck in short term fostering and does not have a lot of options. Her symptoms are limited to water drinking and mildly elevated need to go potty (every 2-3 hours). She is very affectionate and her need for companionship means she would do best in a home where someone works from home or is retired. She is playful and happy and does not have much exercise needs other than a couple of short walks a day. She does not do that will in the car but short trips would be ok. She loves everyone she meets, especially children.

We have started her on a kidney prescription diet as well as high quality supplements, and are retesting her bloodwork in 6-8 weeks. The VET is hoping her numbers will stabilize or imporve during this time now that she is on a supportive diet.

If you are interested in a loving, sweet, playful companion please reach out to Ashley for an application at dancersbridgedogrescue@gmail.com
