As little as a few extra pounds on a small dog can lead to health-related complications.

Rusty
|
Hi. My name is Rusty, I guess you can figure out why. I was dumped on somebody's property to fend for myself. I became quite good at taking care of myself and really don't look too bad for a guy that's been totally on his own for a couple of months. The people who lived on the property where I was left did start to feed me and took a liking to me. They notified my foster parents here in Redding that I needed a place to go because they couldn't keep me. Lucky for me there was room here - so here I am! I get along with other dogs, and I am very laid back. I would prefer a home with no kids. I just don't want to be bothered with the little ones. I am one handsome red brushcoat boy, but you already know that from my photo. So there you have it-all I need now is a place to call home!

Humphrey

Hello. My name is Humphrey, which for some strange reason seems to suit me. I came from a high kill shelter in Sacramento, CA, where I would probably have spent my last days if my foster parents had not been notified that I was there. I had a guardian angel drive me all the way to Redding. I do have some issues with my skin, but they are working on that here, and someday I will be even more handsome than I am already. I can tell my foster dad loves me already (of course he loves us all) by the way he talks to me and handles me. I am a fawn horsecoat, and I love everybody. I know I may not look perfect on the outside, but on the inside I am perfection! Please give me a chance to prove it to you by filling out that application under my name.

Sugar

Hi everyone. My name is Sugar, and you can probably figure out how that came about. I really don't know what happened to me, and why I have not been up on the "Our Kids" page. I have been here for quite a while, but nobody can adopt me if they don't know I am here. My foster parents really like me and maybe it was an intentional oversight on their part so they could keep me. But they understand that it would be best if I had a home I could call my own, and now it's time for everyone to learn how wonderful I am! I am from a high kill shelter in Southern CA, and while I was being fostered down there, I worked in the prison system with the inmates. That's what a great Pei I am-I can get along with anyone! They loved me, but of course were not in a postion to give me the home I deserve, so maybe you are. I am a cream horsecoat, and I'm told I'm very endearing. Some say I could stand to lose a few pounds, but we are all fed the same amount here so I guess I just have a slow metabolism...

Victor

Hello all you Pei lovers out there. I am Victor and come from a high kill shelter in Moreno Valley. I'm just another with the same old story-I used to have an owner, but they didn't think enough of me to come looking when I went missing. Maybe they still haven't realized I'm gone. You know most of us get more attention here than wherever it is we came from. At least our foster parents have made a lifelong commitment to us. Sure, they want us all to have "forever" homes, but if not with one of you, then they will consider us as one of their own and always take care of us. If you are looking to adopt, then please understand it is to be a lifelong commitment on your part too-we deserve that since we have already been abandoned once. I am speaking for all of us here at the rescue waiting for our special families to find us and love us. Now, as for me, I need an experienced Pei owner since I am going to test you to see how much I can get away with. You need to be smarter than I am, and I'm pretty darn smart. If you think you want to match wits with me, fill out the application, and I will give you a run for your money!

Caesar

Hello. My name is Caesar. Why Caesar you may ask-I don't have a clue. I'm a young boy and get along with just about everyone I meet. I really crave attention from humans more than other dogs. I came from a shelter in Hesperia in Southern CA. I had already been there once and adopted out as a puppy. Then I ended up there again. It seems my owner did something that landed him in jail. When the nice folks at the shelter called this person's girlfriend, she did not want me back. The thinking is that I was just turned loose to fend for myself because it seemed to the shelter staff that I had been on my own for a while. Well, I find myself at the shelter again, and my time is running out-this time permanently if no one will help me. Thankfully, my now foster parents found out about my situation, and there was room for me here in Redding. A close call for sure! Anyway, I would really like to find a new forever home with more upstanding citizens than the last ones. I don't need or deserve to find myself homeless for a third time!
