Animal abuse of any kind is inhumane enough but when you consider the abused and abandoned Yorkshire Terriers out there it can just break your heart. Luckily you can take an abandoned or abused Yorkie to a Yorkie rescue centre and get it the help it needs. But before you go ahead and drop the dog off at the Yorkie rescue centre you may want to just make sure that the Yorkie rescue centre you are choosing is able to help the little dog and that it has the facilities and resources it needs to do the job right.
It is almost impossible for any Yorkie rescue centre to really help an abused or abandoned Yorkie with the services of a vet available to them. If you are talking to a Yorkie rescue centre and they do not have a vet available to them in some way that they use on a regular basis then that may be an indication that the centre you are talking to many not be the right one for the job.
Qualified people that know how to get an abused or abandoned Yorkie the help it needs should staff any good Yorkie rescue centre and can recognize the myriad of issues that can arise when an abused animal comes to the Yorkie rescue. Make sure you are comfortable that the staff of the Yorkie rescue centre you are considering is competent for the sake of the little dog that you will be turning them over to for help. You do not want a situation of going from bad to worse.
Many of the better Yorkie breeders will reach out to the local Yorkie rescue centre and offer their assistance in helping find homes for these poor dogs and giving them a second chance at life. It is not a prerequisite but it is a nice thing to know if the Yorkie rescue centre you are dealing with has that extra outlet to find the dog a new home.
Many of the animal rescue groups in your area all work together towards the common goal of helping abandoned or abused animals, so you may find that the Yorkie rescue centre you are talking to is part of that network. This is a good thing because sometimes a centre may not have all of the resources it needs to help their rescued dogs and if they are teamed up with the other animal rescue groups then they can use those resources to get the assistance they may need.
It is always the responsibility of any humane person to get help for an abandoned or abused pet that they see needs it. Always contact a Yorkie rescue centre if you see a Yorkie in need of help and just be wary of what to expect when you contact one so that you can tell if you may be sending the little dog to a good place or a place that may not be able to help.
