My story

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

Update on ViVi..... she was adopted into a multi-pet household and over a period of a couple months, she made it quite clear that she wasn't very interested in sharing space with other dogs... She seems quite fine with  cats,,, but became quite territorial with the dogs.

So we're looking for a more appropriate home for this little girl.... she gets around real well,,, seems to be in need of a bit of a diet,,, as carrying extra weight on three legs won't help her in the long run.  But otherwise,,, she's happy healthy and ready to find a place where she can be queen of the castle.

We've been having a new adventure recently!  We took in a little Peke girl who had sustained an injury to one front leg that had destroyed the nerves,,, so while the leg was not broken,,, it was useless and not fixable.... She has recently gone thru the surgery to have that leg amputated and does amazingly well on three legs ,,, both before dealing with the useless one,, and since even better without that nuisance.....

She's a darling little girl ,, she's been spayed and all ready to find a forever home with someone who doesn't need to provide much in the way of special treatment,, but who will need to be careful that she doesn't do more than she should as far as jumping off things and dealing with stairs etc.... (she doesn't consider herself the least bit handicapped and won't hesitate to try things on her own).

She has been kept pretty much on her own here, but has interacted with several other small dogs.  The rest of our crew are pretty much old, blind, or grumpy,,, so she's not had much opportunity to find a suitable playmate.  Nor has she seemed unhappy when she was left without other canine company.

She will be a wonderful companion for someone and just needs a person to keep an eye on her enthusiasm and youthful exuberance....

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We charge an adoption fee to defray some of the costs of medical care for the animals. We require all potential adopters to fill out an application. We also reserve the right to do a home visit before releasing a dog for adoption.

Go meet their pets

Because we foster rather than have a shelter, where and when you can meet a specific animal depends on where he's being fostered. We try to let the foster person arrangement a meeting directly with the potential adopter at a time and place that works for both of them.

More about this rescue

We provide safe, loving foster care for as many "in-need" Pekingese dogs as we can find room for. They are evaluated both physically and mentally and provided with spay/neuter surgery, vaccinations, heartworm tests. Other medical care is provided as needed.
