Nice couple looking to adopt an elderly Yorkie in SoCal

If anyone in So Cal knows of a shelter or owner surrender of an elderly Yorkie, can you contact me? There is a lovely couple in their 70's whose beloved Yorkie recently passed away from a heart condition. They are looking to adopt an ELDERLY Yorkie to live out his or her last years with them. They know about rescue but I said I'd put some feelers out in case we can arrange a direct adoption. Thanks!

I don't know of any available Yorkies but there is a Yorkies and friends Rescue located in Orange.

Thanks Lisa. They are following up with rescue, also. For some reason all the dogs available through Yorkies and Friends are young, the oldest is 4 years old and they are looking for a senior Yorkie.

How do they feel about senior poms? I know a lovely one. Really special. Has all her teeth except one. Just a delightful girl. Name of Lola.

I will keep an ear out! Everytime I look at this title though I read it as "nice looking couple..." and it makes me giggle.

I hope they can find a little yorkie in need to give it a good home!

Is six too young?

Thanks Lisa! I'll ask. I think they were thinking more along the lines of 10 or older. They are both in their late 70's and they really had a super senior dog in mind considering their own ages.

I have a ten year old full bred girl who has been very sad ever since baby arrived.
