Yorkies for Adoption in Eastern Cape

SA Yorkie Rescue assists Yorkies across the Eastern Cape, including Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth), East London, Mthatha, Jeffreys Bay and the Sunshine Coast corridor. Eastern Cape adoptions may involve longer-distance logistics, so local adopters who can travel to meet the dog or arrange a handover point are particularly well placed. If you are in the Eastern Cape and see a Yorkie that fits your home, your application will be assessed with your location and practical logistics in mind.
