Teddy has a new home
Teddy

Below is Teddy's Happy Tails bio, as submitted by his family:

A leaf rustles in the rocks, a shadow sways in the breeze and he is there, protecting his new family from the dangerous things that dwell in the space just outside the screen enclosure. Teddy is home. His new family loves him more and more each day.

He is learning the rules... no pee pee inside, no scratching the screen. Although he cannot eat whatever he wants due to his liver disease, he loves eggs, cheese, green beans, carrots, and fish. He gets special gel for his teeth to protect them from his medicine. He loves to run through the house after a bath and roll all over towels. You would never guess that he has a liver disorder. He plays chase and hide and seek with his boys who love him.

His little human boy, Carson, spends time with him every morning before school. He pets him and talks to him gently. His big human boy, Patrick, cuddles and pets him as well as takes him for walks. Patrick also makes sure Teddy has what he needs before he goes off to school. Teddy gets lots of cookies made from baking his special dog food. He will do anything for a cookie.

Teddy does not like rain or darkness. In fact, he can be trusted to go outside without a leash, because he won't run away under these conditions. He also doesn't like tall wet grass and will walk on the brick border rather than get wet. When he does have to walk through tall grass, he runs and hops like a rabbit. He plays in the backyard while Mommy works in the garden and scares off lizards at the front door. Some times Daddy takes him for walks while everyone else is sleeping.

Teddy's family has many nicknames for him including Teddy Bear, Theodore, Mr. T, Little Man, Teddy Binetti, and Mommy's Baby. Teddy lets Mommy hold him like a baby. She is the only one that can do that. Probably because she makes him feel safe.

Teddy sleeps a lot while his family is away. In fact, they keep him up and bother him on the weekends, because he seems to sleep all day on Mondays even when one of them is home with him.

Teddy loves closets & dark places like under beds. He still has his Snoopy bed from his previous owner but he also has a cube and a very plush doggy bed and can sleep whereever he wants when his family is home. At night he retreats to his crate under Patrick's new loft bed. It is like Teddy has his own den.

Teddy's family did not think they could have a dog due to allergies, but Teddy has saved the day and made two boys very happy. Mommy and Daddy love him too.

Note from UYR: Ahhhhhhhhh, we just love Happy Tails and the perfect family was chosen for this perfect little boy!

Bree on adoption day
Bree

Hi everyone Bree here. Thanks to my FM, I am now going to my fur-ever home. I have learned to go in a crate without getting upset and that men can be nice to me. When I cannot go outside to potty, I use these special papers my FM puts on the floor for me to use. I will even take things from my FM's hand without being afraid. I've learned that there are people who will love me and let me be their special friend not like what I experienced in the past. Thanks to everyone who helps critters like me find love.

Bree

Kipton

Kipton and new mom
Kipton

Update 05/06/13: I have always had a love for animals. The unconditional love and devotion they give absolutely amazes me. Nothing is better than walking in the door and having the joy of my fur babies greeting me with wet kisses and hugs.

I was fortunate four years ago and was given two male Yorkies by a dear friend who needed a home for them. They were litter mates. My love for this breed has grown over the years as I just can't get enough.

I just happened to be following the puppy mill rescue stories and landed on the United Yorkie Rescue site. As I scrolled down through the pictures of the adorable pups, I came upon a little senior boy whose bio just broke my heart. I read the bio over and over again and got choked up each time I read it. When I woke up the next morning, I knew what I had to do...go get Kipton!!!

This little boy is so special that loving him is not very hard to do. I can see the love in his big eyes when he looks at me. It only took a couple of days for my little guy to know that he was mine. His kindred spirit and strong determination is such a welcome addition to my family. I so look forward to spoiling him and giving him the love that he so truly deserves! I am again blessed that I was given another little angel who has melted my heart. Love you little Kipton!!

Cooper and new family
Cooper

Cooper has been adopted. This is such a bitter sweet thing for me. After spending over 6 weeks with that little guy, holding him for hours, both before and after surgery, I became so very attached to him!! I wasn't sure if I would EVER find a family worthy of this wonderful little guy, or if I should adopt him myself. I asked for a sign and low and behold, the next morning I got a call from Donna and she said that they had decided to apply to adopt Cooper!! (We had been talking about him for several weeks) I know in my heart, this is a perfect match!!!

I am so excited to introduce Cooper's new furever family!!! Cooper has been adopted by Donna and Bob Whitted and also now has 2 Yorkie fursisters, a Chi furbrother and also 2 furcat sisters!!!! All of Cooper's furfamily are also rescue dogs and cats. When I first met Donna, she was inquiring about Cooper and very interested in adopting him when he was all healed and ready for his furever family. Then Donna found out about a Pit Mix momma and 7 babies that were living in terrible conditions and needed rescue. I was happy to make a call to a rescue friend and that call resulted in a rescue accepting the whole Pit Mix family. Donna was diligent in making sure the transportation and all aspects of the rescue came off without hitch. At that time, I knew in my heart, Donna and Bob were the family that should become Cooper's new family. It's just a perk for me that Donna and I have become friends and she only lives about 11 miles from me!!! I'll get to see Cooper and watch him grow up!!! I just love happy endings!!!

Bijou with new dad
Bijou

This email came from Bijou to her foster mom and dad (Bijou's Foster Dad's Father adopted her....... Her new owner Paul likes to think of her still as his son and future daughter-in-law's dog... and that he's the grandpa. The French word for Grandfather is Pepere - Pep for short. Of course, Paul knows she's all his and wouldn't trade her for all the money in the world). :)

"Hi Mom & Dad - We're doing just fine here in Westport. Pep takes me with him just about EVERYPLACE !! Maybe it's the cute haircut you gave me...but people are CONSTANTLY falling in love with me. Pep can really get me going - kinda like Papa Luke did.(and that's OK with me) I'm getting plenty of exercise but Pep is being a little (over) protective about me jumping (particularly off of beds) so he has hassocks in place so that I can make it onto and off of beds without much problem. He's a good Pep (but a real softy at times) - I just have to look at him a certain way and he MELTS ! (In fact, sometimes I think he boo hoos ...just because he loves me so much) I'm learning french !! I come when he says "Vien" ... I sit when he says "Assis" ... he uses the word "Dehor" when it's time to go out. The part that bugs me a little is that he even asks me to pee 'on command' - he uses the word "Fait" which means 'DO' - and just to make HIM happy....I try to pee (or poo) when he uses the Fait word.

I love visiting patients with Pep. He's a caring nurse but to tell you the truth....I think his patients are enjoying me more than Nurse Pep (but don't tell him I told you that) I still visit the room that you guys stayed in while you were here at camp. In fact Pep and I use that bed for play-time. I LOVE the sound it makes when I scratch the bed-spread...and...I think I can still pick up your scent. (Which I do miss!!) Pep showers me with kisses throughout the day (and night) - I think 'maybe' I'm the "little girl" in his life !!

Anyways...time to go. Just wanted to "check-in" and say hello. I'll NEVER be able to REALLY express just how grateful I am for "saving me" - You guys are just the BEST foster parents any pooch could ever have. I'm so glad I got to stay in the family. And...when people say that I'm a lucky dog....I just stay quiet and think to myself...Pep is the REAL lucky one. He keeps referring to me as his "little BLESSING"

Love you guys. Kiss each other for me. Bijou

p.s. I want you to know how excited we all are here in Westport regarding the wedding - but I hope you can continue the ministry with United Yorkie Rescue. They NEED good couples like MY foster mom & dad !! You're the BEST !!
