Harriet doesn’t care for other dogs in the home as she prefers to be the main dog. I have a parrot and she has tried to attack the parrot's cage so she shouldn’t be in a home with a parrot. She is overweight a little. She has a beautiful thick long coat. She is great with children. She loves to chase them around the yard and play. She has never growled or tried to snap at anyone in my home other then the other dogs in the house. She will follow you to bed and loves to cuddle up with you on the couch. She needs to have her back end cut short due to her urinating.

Harriet is the friendliest people peke I have in my home. Good for any home. I have 4 children between ages 10-16 and baby-sit a 9 month old a 3 yr old and 1½ year old. Haven’t had a problem with any of them around her or had to worry about her being aggressive with them. I do have a big dog in my home part akita and husky that loved to lay on the floor with the baby but since she has been in my home she goes after the bigger dog if he goes near the little kids. She is protective of them. The owners that turned her over purchased her for their child, from what I was told, a toddler.

The only worry I would have is placing her in a home with other dogs that have children in the home. Although she has not accidentally went to growl at the other dog from being by the kid I wouldn’t want to take the chance of her going towards another dog around your children because of fear the other dog might decide to fight with her and your child being too close. My Akita husky was a rescue who is blind and doesn’t fight back with the little pekes I have here. The Pekes get the food dishes first because he won’t attempt it if one is growling and Harriet has been known for backing him in a corner to keep him from going near the kids. I am home all the time so I don’t have to worry about it. But for those that have other dogs Harriet would not be good in the home. But if you just have kids she is fine. She also is ok with a cat. She is up-to-date on all her shots. Harriet is 1½ years old.

Cosmo is in a foster home that has a parrot, a cat, a guinea Pig, a turtle, hamsters, two other dogs and children and he does fine with all. His foster Mom does prefer to place him in an adult home or with older children as Cosmo is a bit leery when approached from his right side, and young children would not understand that.

Cosmo is completely housebroken, loves to go on walks with the two other dogs, and his favorite toy is a ball that he loves to carry around and play with -- though, he does loose it from time to time and needs help finding it. Cosmo is not at all destructive, he does not chew on furniture or shoes. He is patiently waiting for a new "forever home" -- could that home be yours??? Cosmo's adoption fee is $200.00.

Please submit an Application to Adopt (obtainable from www.pekingeseclub.org under PCA Rescue & Adoption) and submit to his foster Mom, Deanna in Porter, Indiana -- leonnlori@attbi.com -- or phone her at 219-395-8197. Any additional donation is always welcome to help defray our ever-mounting medical expenses.

Johnny weighs 10-1/2 pounds with a full black mask that has a small white "Budda Kiss" on his forehead, little white on his chin, he is a gorgeous red with white on his neck and chest with a full white collar in additon to white on all four of his legs. He carries a HUGE coat, so either be prepared to do a daily brush out or find a good groomer and keep him cut down in a puppy cut. In full coat, he is gorgeous!!!! But if you keep him in full coat he also will need to be kept in air-conditioning.

On June 19, 2002 Johnny was neutered, teeth cleaned and heart-worm tested negative and will be put on Interceptor. June 20th his shots were brought up to date. Stitches will come out next week, so anytime after June 29th he should be ready for his new home. He is paper trained and he does use a doggie door in my kennel. I believe he will not be hard to completely house break.

Johnny is gentle and loving with everyone. He loves people and gets along with all the other Pekes. He ignores our cat. I do not believe he is leash trained as he is used to being in a fenced-in yard.

For more information or for an application to adopt send your name and address to Audrey, Johnny's foster mom, at Audrianne@Voyager.net.

Pedro is a darling 4 year old, 8 pound tri-colored (black and tan with white markings), Chihuahua. All shots, booster, parvo rabies are up to date, he was heartworm tested negative, is on preventative (Interceptor) and is neutered.

Pedro needs a SENIOR family to love him, someone to show him not all people are cruel. Pedro is VERY fearful of strangers and will nip before thinking!! I am nearly 70 -- this boy is fine with me, however, not so with younger people. He likes my other Chihuahuas -- but will GUARD his food bowl -- so needs to be fed separately if you have another small dog. He is NOT completely housebroken, but he does go on paper in my kennel.

Application to Adopt, Adoption Contract, Home-Visit, Adoption Donation, Referenced required. For more information, please contact his foster Mom, Audrey in Mentor, Ohio (near Cleveland) --Audrianne@Voyager.net -- I do not transport, nor ship.

Charlie's invalid owner died, leaving him and six other show dogs up for grabs, as the care-giver opted to sell them, rather than place them in loving homes per her death bed instructions, I was very lucky to have the money available at the time to get them all off the puppymill market.

When Charlie arrived at Adopt-Aluv Rescue, he was wearing a leather harness that was imbedded in his coat and in his skin. We had to shave it off him along with all of his coat. The harness left open sores which have now healed and his coat is growing back. He will carry a lovely, long, full coat, so be prepared to either keep him cut down -- or you must do a daily brush out. Charlie is NOT housebroken, so that will need to be worked on also.

Charlie is getting vetted on Monday, May 20th -- all shots, booster, parvo, rabies, heart-worm tested and will be put on preventative, his teeth will be cleaned and he will be neutered.

Charlie must go to a very special and loving home -- someone who will make up for the years of neglect he has endured.

Please send name and address to his foster Mom, Audrey for an Application to Adopt -- Audrianne@Voyager.net Adoption Contract, References, Adoption Fee required. For more information, contact Charlie's foster Mom, Audrey in Mentor, Ohio (near Cleveland) at Audrianne@Voyager.net
