Adoption Fee: $200 Age: 9 years Weight: 12 lbs. Fostered in Baton Rouge, LA Email: bryorkiemom@yahoo.com 5/26/25 - Whew! Emma and I have been so busy lately, we didnāt realize how long itās been since we updated everyone about us. We are, of course, still up for adoption. We would like to be adopted together. We originally came from the same home and have been fostered in the same foster home for so long now, it would hard to go anywhere without my sister. We are so much alike in so many different ways. We are both very loving and absolutely love to give kisses. This is a must in our new home that we be able to kiss our new mom and dad. We would do better without any small children around. We are very quick, so around open doors, you have to be very careful so as not to let us out. We can be very fast and are very curious. Although, we do focus on pleasing foster mom and dad. We are very good in the potty department. We will use pee pads and go outside. We arenāt the best when at the groomer, but nevertheless, she can still get the job done and we are good for our weekly bath and blow-dry at home. We eat like champs and are ready to go to bed at whatever time you like. Both of us like to get in the human bed, but when itās time to go to sleep, my sister will stay in the human bed for a while and then come and joint me on the sofa in the middle of the night. I like more room to myself and the bed has other pups in it. We have never met anyone that doesnāt love both of us. Everyone always comments on how sweet and gentle we are. Our one main fault is that we HATE cats. Donāt want them living in our house and donāt even want any stray ones anywhere around our yard. We are full-on terriers when it comes to the kitties. We are thinking that 2025 will be our year that someone will get lucky and want us to join their family. Is that you? 10/23/24 ā Amber and Emma are such sweethearts. They could be adopted separately, but honestly, they would do great together as they have similar, yet different personalities that balance each other out so well. Amber is submissive (and is a less confident than Emma) and very sweet and obedient. She will come when she is called. She loves giving kisses to her humans and yearns for attention. She is in a foster home with other pups and is fine getting along with all of them. However, just like Emma, if something goes sideways, Amber definitely will exhibit her alpha side and knows how to handle herself to put the other pups in line. You know that saying, ādonāt start shit, but donāt take shitā? Thatās Amber. She doesnāt sleep in the bed with her humans, but does love getting in the bed and being rubbed on and loved on. She is welcome to sleep in the bed, but when the lights go out, she jumps down and sleeps in one of many places in the house. She does have that terrier hunt in her as she will chase down a squirrel, bird, lizard, frog, butterfly, etc. That is when her obedience comes in handy. A sharp, loud āAMBERā, and she stops what she is doing and comes running. Eager to please and longing for love, this baby, and her sister, Emma, are a power couple and a joy to have. 4/14/24 ā Amber has come out of her shell quite a bit since entering her foster home. She loves men and women, but would do best in a home with no children since she can be frightened with loud noises and chaotic movements. Anytime you reach down to pet her, she will roll over and show her belly. She loves attention and loves getting and giving kisses. She loves sleeping in the bed with her foster mom and dad, but is also fine to go and sleep in any one of the numerous dog beds around, or the back of the sofa. Especially if it is crowded. Amber knows her name well and will definitely come when called. She is quite the chow hound at breakfast and supper time, but is very respectful of the other dogsā bowls and if she goes near them while they are eating (since she finishes so fast), a quick, āNo Amberā, deters her automatically. She loves to please her humans. She would do great in a home with other dogs her size, but definitely NO CATS! She is quite the hunter outside chasing birds and squirrels and even stray cats if they happen to get into the yard. She is submissive, but donāt mistake that for a pushover. She is quite the mom when she needs to put another dog in line for something, but she doesnāt start anything. Even though she isnāt your typical looking yorkie, with her longer legs and her full tail, Amber is a very beautiful girl. She has the most angelic face and is just the sweetest baby. She is such a good girl and will use the pee pads when she needs to, but will also do her business on her many trips outside. We have found out that she and Emma would do fine either being adopted together or being separated. They love each other, but they also love all the other dogs in their foster home, so if there is at least one other dog in her new home, she will be just fine. 4/14/23 - Amber, Bebe and Emma all came to YHR from the same home. Their elderly owner could not care for them any longer so surrendered them. All three are very tall, slender, have nice tails and have beautiful faces. They all thought about going into modeling, but after giving it careful consideration, figured the better path would be to join a family and be pampered, loved and retired. They all three seem to have had puppies before and show signs of uncertainness of humans, so were arenāt sure of their full background of socialization. We believe they are sisters as they are all the same age and look a lot alike. When they first arrived, they did not have any vetting done, so they received the works. Bloodwork, dental, spay, shots, heartworm test, etc. Their skin and hair were in pretty bad shape to, but good food and baths are helping the hair feel more like hair and less like hay. Even though they have a lot in common, they do have differences in their personalities, so we asked each of them to give you details about themselves. Hi, Iām Amber. I am such a sweetheart, so Iāve been told everyday since I arrived at my foster home. My foster parents are constantly saying how pretty my face is and how dainty I am and how sweet my personality is. Iām very humble too. I love getting attention and if I even think you are going to want to give me a kiss or pet me, I will scurry right up to you, hunker down and roll over. I am a very submissive girl and appreciate any attention and love I can get. Iām always happy too. My tail is always wagging and my butt wags with it. My whole backend moves when Iām happy, which is all the time now. I just love being talked to and will look at you as if you hung the moon. I havenāt quite got the hang of being held. Iām rather uncomfortable and donāt know what to do since I havenāt been held much previously, but Iām getting better. Iām not so clingy that I follow my humans everywhere, but foster mom keeps inviting me to every room she goes in, so Iām learning to understand that Iām wanted. Iām a very good girl to go outside and do my business (but have been seen going on the pee pad, and sometimes on a rug); Iām not a huge barker (unless the other dogs in the home bark and they need back-up); and I get along fine with other calm dogs. I really donāt care about toys, just comfortable places to lay. I really enjoy having other dogs around, but I donāt like very active, obnoxious ones. Iām a sweet calm girl and would like to share space with another sweet, calm dog or two. Iāve learned to use the bench to get up and down in the bed, however, I havenāt gotten quite comfortable enough to sleep the whole night through in the human bed. I will start off there (because foster mom brings me to bed), but in the middle of the night, I wind up going to sleep on the back of the sofa. I have also learned about all the comfy dog beds in the house and foster mom and dad have been catching me in a new one every so often. So the lowdown on me is that Iām VERY sweet, pretty, kind, gentle, dainty and loving and Iām looking for a home with a fur-sibling or two, a mom and dad, no young children, a fenced in back yard (doesnāt have to be large), healthy food and nightly massages (I absolutely love my belly rubbed). I know that is a tall order, but Iām a believer and I truly believe that there is a perfect home out there just for me, or me and one of my sisters. Iām not settling this time. Iām happy in my foster home, so I will hold out until what I read gives me the warm and fuzzies. Wouldnāt you? Thanks for understanding!
