Peke A Tzu Rescue

Peke A Tzu Rescue is a Non-Profit Shih Tzu Rescue and Pekingese Rescue exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. We are also active in Maltese Rescue, Poodle Rescue, Yorkie Rescue and Mixed Small Breed Rescue. Our primary location is in Trufant, Michigan but we do have foster homes in Indiana and Florida. The rescue is comprised of volunteers donating their time and love. We do not receive any money from city, county, state or federal governments. The volunteers are not paid except with pupster kisses and adoration. Many of the gift shop items are donated by volunteers so that the rescue receives 100% of the sales proceeds. Also a volunteer has designed and maintains our website so that we do not have website fees with the exception of server costs. We rescue dogs from local animal shelters, animal control facilities and private owners. All are fostered in our homes until they find their Forever Home. All vetting needs are addressed upon arrival with the appropriate follow up vet visits. We also provide a Pre Adoption Physical which is done within a 7 day period prior to adoption. This physical includes a wellness exam and fecal. A copy of the Pre Adoption Physical with our veterinarian's signature will be supplied to the adopter. We will keep an update of total vetting costs at Foster Vetting Costs. We do adopt out of state, but request that the Adopter fly in or drive in to get the baby.
Additional information on adoption can be found at Adoption Guidelines.

Pupster Playground Fundraiser
in Memory of Harvey Boyd



Our current pupster playground surface is only indoor/outdoor carpeting on the ground. This was the most economical way for us to surface the play area to prevent digging, to keep the babies clean and to prevent any flea or tick issues. Because of the more mischievous pupsters, the indoor/outdoor carpeting is no longer an option for they have discovered how to dig holes through the carpeting.

Plan of Playground

Our current playground measures 32’ x 40’ and we would like to resurface the play area with a permanent material that is easier to sanitize and pupster destruction free.



We are also in need of an additional playground for our teeny tiny, senior and special needs pupsters. While playing, the more active pupsters can bump into or knock down one of the smaller, senior or special needs pupsters. Currently we schedule separate playtimes for the two groups. This playground would measure 20’ x 16’.



Our total fund raising goal is $5,400 for a concrete surface in the playgrounds. If the goal can not be reached, the second alternative would be to install a wood decking surface in the play areas at a cost of $3,650.

Harvey Boyd was a dedicated member of our Board of Directors, who crossed over the Rainbow Bridge on June 13, 2009 to join our Bridge Babies. He designed & donated water bottle stands as well as helped Jen sew & donate belly bands for the rescue and the gift shop. Harvey enjoyed fostering the seniors, aggressive pupsters & special needs pupsters. We would like to dedicate the Pupster Playground in memory of Harvey. We appreciate your love and support for our precious babies. Please donate below via Paypal or send a check to the address below.

Designer Accessories Fundraiser
Authentic designer handbags from Prada, Louis Vuitton, Coach and more along with Coach shoes and boots have been generously donated to Peke A Tzu Rescue to raise funds for vetting expenses for our senior and special needs fosters. 100% of the proceeds goes directly to the Pupsters' Food and Vetting expenses. Many critically ill and senior fosters have gone to Rainbow Bridge and were unable to be adopted into a loving family of their own.
We are left with huge vet expenses from these precious babies and our financial resources have been depleted. With the current economy, some of our previous donors have chosen to discontinue donations.
