My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Nash is a beautiful white Peke.  He is about 2 years old and weighs 10.5 lbs.  He is a new arrival from a crowded shelter where he was set to die. Nash needs slow intros to new environments and people and resident pets, if any. He needs time to explore and be around his people without demands being made on him. Doggie literature talks about the 3 day, 3 week, 3 month rule -  It suggests that the first three days should be used for adjusting to its new surroundings, the next three weeks for training and bonding, and the first three months for continued socialization and training, especially those that have not been treated well, to adjust.to their new environment and people. Nash is one of those pups. He will come to love you but will need time and space to do that. He loves to go outside and to be around other pups who are not "in his face."  Nash can be a charming, confident companion who will develop a tight bond with his favorite human but it takes time especially because he from a home he loved to a noisy, scary shelter. He can be as serenely independent. Some describe Pekes including him as opinionated. Ever alert, he will make a good watchdog. He will come to tolerate kids but won't stand for a lot of roughhousing. Homes with tiny children would probably not be a good fit for Nash; but older children who understand the need for space and time would probably be fine. Check him out. He has been with his foster for a while and does well.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Thank you for adopting and not buying!!! Every week hundreds of highly adoptabledogs are put to death by local shelters. Most people would be amazed at the purebred and beautiful dogs available, if they walked into their neighborhood shelter.

Rescue organizations, like mine, work hard to save as many as we possibly can but is a never ending process with breeders and Puppy Mills selling unhealthy animals to the public. If you EVER saw a puppy mill you would NEVER buy again!

All of my dogs are neutered or spayed, vet checked, completely vaccinated, wormed, groomed and checked for heart worms. They are all are current on Heart worm medicine, flea, and tick medications. They are all microchipped as well.

Adoption fee is $300 to $350 (older "friends' can be less, please inquire. Puppies are $350 - Besides fully vetting all dogs, some of of the dogs I rescue, 1 in 5 I rescue have heart worms which is very expensive to treat. I also take in dogs who need surgeries and are close to death.

More about this rescue

About us: Cody was the first pet I owned as an adult. He was a Shih Tzu that I bought unknowingly, from a Puppy Mill. He fought for his life and barely survived, suffering for the first few months of his life. From then on I was stirred by a ferocious passion to save as many dogs as I could through networking with other rescue groups and saving the ones I could off of cold streets and unwanted in shelters. Cody did not live a very long life due to a weakened body, but I was able to love on him for eight good years! He will always be loved and forever remembered. With over 400 dogs rescued so far, we ARE making a difference!!
Thank you for visiting and considering a rescue........................
