A Rescue, Re-homing and Adoption Agency

Our Mission Statement

The mission of Rocky Mountain Yorkie Rescue, located in Colorado, is to rescue Yorkie/Yorkie mixes. We are committed to educating the public, our adoptees and volunteers about the Yorkshire Terrier Breed. We pledge to provide a loving and caring environment and keep the pup safe until a forever home can be found within the Colorado area. Our focus is not finding the right pup for a home, but finding the right home for each and every pup.

Saving one animal won't change the world, but it will change the world for that one animal.

Looking for Forever Homes

Finley

Finley’s mom (my cousin) passed away unexpectedly, and her daughter reached out to me to take Finley to my rescue.    Her daughter could not keep Finley because he feared her large dogs.

Without further ado, let me introduce you to Finley. He is a nine-year-old neutered male who is current on all vaccinations.  He weighs 15 lbs. Finley is a terrier mix who loves to be talked to, petted, and loved.  He walks perfectly on his leash and always wants to be beside you.

Finley is housebroken and will ask to go out.  He will be your forever shadow who wants nothing more than to be loved and held.  He truly is a beautiful, gorgeous lap dog.   You might fit Finley's needs if you want to smile, laugh, and cuddle.

His adoption fee will go directly to my cousin's daughter, who can then give it to her mother's charity of choice.

We request that Finley be placed in a home:

  • with a stay-at-home parent or an adult working from home.
  • He must have a fenced yard.

Thank you for considering Finley.

Peeka

Peeka, is a lovely spayed little girl mix of Yorkie and another other Terrier. She is seven years old, weighs 10 lbs. and is current on all her vaccinations. She is house-trained and crate-trained but loves sleeping in bed with you. 

She adores attention and snuggles with her humans.  She especially loves going on her daily walks and lets you know when it's time to go. Peeka practically puts her harness on herself!  She can be a bit temperamental, but once you pick up on her cues, you can learn to understand what she asks because she can be very vocal! She loves belly rubs and treats.  She gets along with children, but other dogs are not her favorite, therefore, she would be better off as the only dog in the household.  

We are requesting a stay-at-home adult or one who works from home.   She must have:

  • a secure fenced yard:
  • no apartment, Condo, or Townhome for this little one.

Ways We Serve Yorkies & How You Can Help

Difficult times, surrender

Deciding to surrender your pet can be a very emotional experience for both you and your pet. We at the Rocky Mountain Yorkie Rescue would like to make that decision and the surrender process as easy as possible for you. Yes, surrendering your dog may be difficult but it may also be in the best interest of your dog.
