United Yorkie Rescue, Inc. in Marion, TX

United Yorkie Rescue, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Marion, Texas, in Guadalupe County, about 25 miles southwest of San Antonio, where it shares the county with 9 other animal shelters and rescues. The organization is dedicated exclusively to rescuing Yorkshire Terriers and Yorkie mixes, having saved 4,474 dogs to date and spent over $3.5 million on veterinary care, including specialized treatment for serious conditions like liver shunt, orthopedic injuries, and tumor surgery. Every foster dog is fully vetted, vaccinated, and spayed or neutered before adoption, and adopters must complete an online application along with reference and home checks. UYR also maintains a "Forever Ours" program for Yorkies with significant medical needs who remain in the rescue's care for life, supported by sponsors and donor contributions.
