Wren Yorkie Rescue, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit animal rescue group based in Oakland, has been dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming Yorkshire terriers since 1995. Their team of passionate volunteers generously donate their time and resources to provide compassionate care for these small dogs in need throughout the East Bay Area.

The organization operates with a clear mission: ensuring that every Yorkie in their care receives the love and attention they deserve while finding them forever homes where they can thrive. If you’re considering adding a Yorkie to your household, Wren Yorkie Rescue offers adoption opportunities and can help match you with a dog that fits your lifestyle. They also support people who already have Yorkies but need guidance on behavior, training, or health issues specific to the breed.

Located in Alameda County in the vibrant East Bay Area, the rescue regularly hosts adoption events where you can meet available dogs and learn more about what it’s like to live with a Yorkie. Beyond adoptions, they offer educational programs designed to help dog owners better understand the breed’s specific needs and temperament. This community-focused approach means they’re not just about placing dogs—they’re invested in making sure adoptions work out long-term.

The organization’s work is entirely volunteer-driven, so every donation and adoption fee goes directly toward caring for the dogs in their program. Whether you’re looking to adopt, volunteer your time, or simply support their rescue efforts, Wren Yorkie Rescue’s website has detailed information about current dogs available and how to get involved. You can also reach them directly to ask questions about a specific dog or discuss whether adoption might be right for you.
