How you help...

Donating to Yorkshire Terrier National Rescue (YTNR) is not just an act of kindness; it is a profound commitment to transforming the lives of Yorkshire Terriers in need. Every contribution, plays a vital role in ensuring these loving companions receive the care, shelter, and rehabilitation they deserve. Imagine the joy of seeing a once-abandoned Yorkshire Terrier flourish in a nurturing home, or the relief of knowing that your support has provided essential medical care to a dog in distress. Your partnership with YTNR is crucial in our mission to ensure that every Yorkshire Terrier has the chance to thrive and experience the love they so richly deserve.


History

The journey of Yorkshire Terriers in America is a heartwarming tale that unfolds like a classic novel, filled with adventure, companionship, and unyielding loyalty. Originally bred in the 19th century in England to catch rats in clothing mills, these spirited little dogs quickly captured the hearts of American pet lovers upon their arrival in the United States. Their charming personalities and luxurious coats made them the darling of the social elite, and soon, Yorkshire Terriers became synonymous with love, companionship, and a sense of belonging. Today, they hold a special place in countless households across the country, embodying the very essence of warmth and affection that YTNR strives to promote. This breed's remarkable adaptation to American life showcases their resilience and ability to thrive as cherished family members, proving that no matter where they roam, a Yorkshire Terrier is always ready to bring joy and laughter into the hearts of those lucky enough to call them family.
