"Dogs feel very strongly that they should always go with you in the car, in case the need should arise for them to bark violently at nothing right in your ear."

Betsy

Betsy and Ross were adopted by the Lincoln family in Sacramento, CA.
Hello there. My name is Betsy, and along with Ross, I came to Redding from a shelter in Southern CA. I apologize for this not-so-flattering photo, but it was taken at Dr. Larry's office where I am awaiting surgery today. I am a young black brushcoat girl with a great attitude towards life. I love everyone, especially my buddy, Ross. We even rode in the same crate together on our journey to Redding. We would like to leave the rescue together but understand if that is not possible because not everyone is in a position to adopt two Pei at once. We would just be thrilled to have new forever homes, and I know I/we could make a wonderful addition to your family-just look at that face. Really, who could not love this face.......

Shar Li was adopted by the Fruin family in Spokane, WA.
Hello everyone. My name is Shar Li. I am a very handsome boy. My story is a little different from the others here, but the same in the respect I still ended up in a shelter. I was loved by my previous owner until she died. Unfortunately, she made no provisions for me if she were no longer able to care for me. Her "next of kin" dumped me in a high kill shelter in Southern CA. You would think they could do better for me. I did, after all, give their mother the best years of my life. That is not to say that I don't still have a lot of good years to give my next family. I was very traumatized by this chain of events, and for the first two weeks here in Redding I would not eat. I showed no emotion to anyone. I was so afraid and confused I just didn't know what to do. I'm happy to say I am eating again, and I love my foster dad, Rich. He has shown me so much kindness and gone out of his way to make sure I know I am loved again. I would like a new family, but I need a family who will understand that it make take me a while to get to know them. I'm a little wary right now of totally giving my heart away before I get to know you a little bit. Once I know you are in my life to stay, I am a happy loving guy. If you come to Redding to meet me, please understand that for me there is no more "love at first sight". You must prove your love for me first. I hope you can understand why I feel the way I do.
As you read my story, please think about your own dogs. Please have a plan in place so that what happened to me won't happen to your beloved pets. It's not an easy thing to think about, but you need to be sure your pets will have a safe place to go if and when the time comes you can no longer care for them. I got lucky, but in matters of life and death, luck should not be the deciding factor.

Leonard

Leonard was adopted by the Williams family in Portland, OR.
Hi folks. Remember Lizzie? Well, I am her companion, Leonard, that was dumped along with her on Christmas Eve. Although Lizzies skin issues are worse, I suffer from the same type of mange that she does. You can see evidence of it on my chest. I am getting the proper treatments, but I not responding as well as Lizzie is so my foster parents are going to try a different course of action. I am very outgoing and get along with both two and four legged friends. When my coat is healthy I will be a very handsome sable brushcoat boy. I've heard it said around here that "sable" is really not that common of a color, and now there are three of us here. Even though Lizzie and I were dumped together and get along well, I don't feel that lifelong bond that would mean we should stay together. I can learn to get along with another companion or I would be happy getting all the attention. Heck, I am just happy to know that I am safe and will never be abandoned again. Please get back to me if you would like to meet me.

Tina

Tina aka Zara and Tiny aka Max have been adopted by the Espinoza family in Anaheim, CA.
Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Tina, and I was turned into a shelter in the Los Angeles area with my companion, Tiny. We are both only nine months old, and our previous owner gave no reason for why he was giving us up. It couldn't be our looks or personalities because we are both sweet and petite. I am a cream brushcoat and Tiny is an apricot dilute. Not only do we get along famously with each other, we get along with other dogs as well. We are very friendly with people and outgoing. Although we did come in together, we do not have to be adopted together. If there is family out there that would like both of us, we would certainly like to stay together, but we will understand if that is not possible. What we want most for each other is a loving and caring home even if it means we cannot be together. We will adapt to whatever situation is best for both of us and remain the loving, easygoing "kids" that we are. We are both faced with multiple surgeries so if you are able and can find it in your hearts to help with our expenses, we would love to show our gratitude by "planting a big wet one" on you...

Rose

Rose is now living in Shingletown, CA, with Kathryn and Lok.
Well, here I am-I finally made it to Redding after waiting for two weeks in a boarding facility. It wasn't my favorite place, but they kept me safe until transportation could be arranged from Southern CA to Redding. It usually doesn't take this long, but the regular transporter was not available so my foster mom had to find a different ride for me. I'm settling into my new "digs", but as you can see I still need eye surgery. I guess I need multiple surgeries- for cherry eye, entropion, an umbilical hernia that needs to be repaired, and I need to be spayed. That's a lot to go through for a little three month old girl, but I have proven that I am tough, and I can handle what life hands me. My name is Rose after someone who has helped this rescue with many of my brothers and sisters, but who is going through a very difficult time with a very serious disease. We are both fighters, and all of us here in Redding are keeping my namesake in our thoughts. Anyway, I'm off to the vet tomorrow for my surgeries-not looking forward to it, but I am looking forward to having full vision and being the beautiful girl I am inside and out. I know my foster parents could use some help with my vet bills. If you are able to make a donation in any amount it would be much appreciated. I will be available to go to my new forever home as soon as I heal from my operations. If you would like to be considered to be that home, please fill out an application. I know my foster parents are going to be very careful about where I go, and they will make sure it is the perfect home for me. It's what they do for all their "kids".
