Adopt a Pekingese (long coat)

This dog will be at the Palo Alto Pet Food Express from 12-4pm on Sat. Feb. 17th & Sun. Feb. 18th or until adopted. If interested, please fill out an application if you would like the first opportunity to meet prior to the start of the event. (We will pre-approve one home to meet per dog.)

Toffee is a 6 year old purebred Pekingese. She is a tiny girl. She was an owner surrender from a senior woman who was unable to care for her any longer. She had been well loved. She is absolutely the sweetest, most loving little girl. She comes when she is called. She just wants to be a lap dog and be with her people. She's not a barker at all. (We're not sure she does bark!). She's an excellent apartment or condo dog. 

Toffee has scoliosis. It's similar to that in humans. The difference is there isn't a "treatment or cure". She just lives out her life. She walks a bit funny but it doesn't stop her at all. She came to us on the thin side and we're working to bulk her up. She had a full coat that was fairly matted so she now has the cute little Lion cut. But it also showed us that she definitely needs more food! So she's on a regular xtra feeding schedule.

Toffee gets along well with other dogs. She lives with big and small dogs. She doesn't care about anyone. She could happily coexist with just about any other dog. She isn't so much into playing. She prefers to just hang out with her people and her foster canines. But she'll sit outside and sunbathe while her foster siblings run around...She just hasn't figured out why they run when they could easily just hang out and chill.

Toffee lives with a dog savvy cat.

Toffee is an option for a home that has not had a dog before as long as they have a plan of action for grooming and raising a dog in general. If there are children they need to be over the age of 6.
