About this shelter

United Yorkie Rescue, Inc. in Marion, TX

United Yorkie Rescue, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit rescue organization based in Marion, Texas, located in Guadalupe County, roughly 25 miles southwest of San Antonio. It shares Guadalupe County with 9 other animal shelters and rescues, but stands out as a breed-specific group dedicated exclusively to Yorkshire Terriers and Yorkie mixes. The organization fully vets every foster dog, including vaccinations, spay/neuter, and dental care, and even takes on serious medical cases such as liver shunts, orthopedic injuries, and tumor surgeries. To date it has rescued over 4,400 Yorkies and Yorkie mixes, operates a "Forever Ours" lifetime care program for dogs with significant ongoing medical needs, and promotes an "Adopt, Don't Shop" philosophy through a careful adoption process that includes reference checks and home visits.
