If you are looking to adopt a Yorkie in Pennsylvania, you are going to need to find a rescue.

The following directory will provide you with the contact information of all of your main options.

But before we do, there is one thing to consider.

There is only one rescue dedicated entirely to Yorkies in the state.

So, unless they have dogs available for adoption, it may take a while to find the dog you are hoping to take in.

Nevertheless, there are many reputable general dog rescues in PA; most of which have been known to have Yorkies from time to time and are absolutely worth contacting.

So, with this in mind, onto the rescue list!
