HAPPY TAILS
At United Yorkie Rescue we are blessed with an extraordinary success rate in finding forever homes for our rescued foster dogs. To share this joy we've created this "Happy Tails" page. Happy Tails is devoted to the celebration of these wonderful stories with everyone who loves dogs. We hope that you enjoy these "Tails" as much as we have. Thank you!!

Post from new mom Bonnie:
He is a sweetheart and such a good boy. A real gentleman. Bree (his fur-sister) and I are loving him to pieces. He will be a great addition for us. Thanks so much for all your help in putting us together!

Everyone in the office building adores him, especially me!!!
Hope you are doing well,

 Evie has a new home
|
Evie
Here is an Evie Happy Tale...
Just wanted to let everyone know we are lovin having Evie as an official member of the family. And she is settling in quite nicely as the resident cat. Between carrying around her long lost kitties (the flip flops) to pouncing on the other dogs, just like a cat would do when playing. We still strongly believe she may have been raised by a cat, with all her feline ways. LOVE her we do and wouldn't have her any other way. She is an original.
Thanks so much, Jerry & Colleen

I finally got some pictures of the pooches together - thought you might want to take a look. They're a perfect pair! Dakota's doing very well and has put on some weight. In case you can't tell who's who (it's hard!), he's the one with the bandanna.
All the best,
Dianne Larrea

 Rocky's (Billy) new family
|
Billy the Kid
Rocky - formerly Billy - is doing exceptionally well. On our way home, we stopped at a pet shop to get some supplies and he behaved very well there. He was reluctant to eat much at first but today his appetite is good. He is quite social during his walks. He is probably one of the best behaved dogs in the neighborhood. He has slept two nights in his crate. There were some moments with my grandson, but we were able resolve that with a couple of squirts from a water bottle. Rocky is going to fit right in. He doesn't seem to mind the name change. He is a pleasure to have around. We have been to our local dog park and he is extremely well behaved. House breaking is still an issue but I am certain progress is being made in small steps. The cat has just about adjusted to Rocky, Rocky doesn't seem to care about the cat at all (but he does keep track of where he is). He still sleeps all night without a peep in his crate.
The time you spent working with him has sure paid off.
Thanks for all your hard work, Clyde

Scooby
Email from new mom Becky:
I want you to know that we are doing very well and I absolutely love Scooby and Sheba. They are so lovable and simply wonderful!!! I'm so fortunate to have them in my life.
Here's a note from Scooby and Sheba...
Dear Foster Mom,
Thank you so much for taking care of us. We miss you and love you very much. You Rock!!! We are loving our new Mom! She's really great and we are already feeling at home after just one day. We are eating very well and enjoying our own back yard. Mom took us for a walk in our new neighborhood yesterday and it's really cool. She loves to cuddle with us and she loves to play and act silly, just like us!!! It's a perfect match. Also, we slept all night with Mom in her bed last night. We are so happy and we owe it all to you. Thank you FM, we'll always remember you.
Love,
Scooby and Sheba

Bella
Bella has been with us a month now! I can't believe how fast that went! Of course you can put in the "successful adoptions" happy place!! I am attaching 2 photos I just took because the one from my phone just won't go through!
Bella has gained more weight, I can tell but I have not taken her in for a weight check. I plan to soon! She has so much energy! She loves to run and jump around in the back yard! She is so funny to watch as she tries to chase the birds and ducks! Sometimes she runs to hard and fast she tumbles over and over! She gets up and just keeps on going as fast as she can! She doesn't go near the pool, so that is a good thing! She loves her walks and goes to sit by the door when I ask if anyone wants to walk! She is a good walker! She still has accidents in the house occasionally but she knows she shouldn't ! I do cage her while I am at school and she is fine with it, even goes in there to sleep sometimes in the evenings while we are watching tv! She loves to be held and carried around like a baby! We just love her and am so grateful to have her!
She has a "fluff and puff" appointment with Penny on Saturday to get their hair done and get all prettied up!! I did give her a bath a week ago and she was so good, just stood still while I bathed and used a blow dryer on her!!
Thanks!!
Heather

 Mattie and new family
|
Mattie
To sum up how we feel about Mattie as my little Mia told it. Mattie fits right into our family because he is good, loving, gives lots of kisses and he is calm. She said she is so happy to have another dog. I think Chippy is very happy to have a little buddy. Mattie is everything his foster mom, Phyllis said he is. He is so affectionate and is great with the kids and Chippy. Phyllis has done a wonderful job taking care of him and getting him well and he was so lucky to have her! Phyllis was wonderful with our family as well and we got to visit Mattie on a weekly basis until the adoption which made it that much easier when we finally did!
The United Yorkie Rescue is a terrific organization with an amazing group of people!
Thanks for everything!

 Jamie and new best friend

Jamie
Well, I'm taking a minute to write this because my older fur-brother needs a rest!
My new favorite word is "jail" - strange, but I'll tell you why. The situation that was told to my mom, is that the bad peole who had me before my awesome foster mom (Hi Casey!) were given the option of going to jail or surrendering me. So they gave me up. See why I like that word now? Because when they said that word, my journey to heaven began. Besides my new parents, I have a 75 pound big brother (he's a German Shorthaired pointer that was also rescued from some pretty bad stuff!) and 2 brothers without fur. I've got a nan, an aunt, an uncle, and nephew that i haven't met yet. This family stuff is pretty cool! We pick the kids up from school, play in the backyard, and I can just attack my fur-brother whenever I want to - he doesn't even care! I steel his bones, jump on him when he's sleeping, chew on his feel when he's walking . . . nothing! How funny is that! And it only took me 2 nights to make it to the bed at night! I've got these guys wraped around my little finger (er . . . paw!) My fur is growing in real nice, I have to admit. . . I'm one handsome devil! You can't even see the scars on my neck anymore unless you look, but whose looking!!!!!! So, just wanted to let you know that life is great, and I have to go now because that's about all the time that I can take away from playing! Thanks Jennifer and Casey for rescuing me and nursng me back to health and for finding me a great home. I hope all your other rescues can be as lucky as me!!!!!! I'll keep in touch, I'm thinking of getting my own FaceBook page - I'm pretty spoiled!

 Diamond and new mom

Diamond
Lady Di or DiDi (formerly Diamone) is doing wonderful! The day I brought her home, she weighd 9.1 lbs. She now weighs 10.2 lbs! The little darlin can eat!! Loves her treats, loves her brother too. They're so cute together. She's more assertive than him, and he doesn't get all the treats meant for him....man is she fast on her feet! She's aclamated to my travel schedule and does great at the dog nanny too. She's learned how to give me kisses on the phone and talk to me when I'm on speaker...I think Max taught her that. She would be the happiest if I held her all day and she gave me kisses. She is the most loving pet. She hasn't tried to get out or run (as her history states); not many opportunities, yet when you call her Diamond and are firm, she sits and doesn't move until asked to. Another major accomplishment is that she no longer hides under the back seat once the car goes into drive. She sits up front, looks out the window, tries like heck to get on my lap (with Max already there), yet she'll go right back to the passenger seat, and as long as I pet her, she stays and behaves.
She is a wonderful addition to our family, and we are blessed to have found her.
