Peke A Tzu Rescue
Foster Journal

We thought all of you out there would like to see what happens here in our home so we decided we would pop in on occasion and let you know what we are doing. Some days it is just the same old routine, but other times we have a lot of excitement. We hope you enjoy hearing about our activities and seeing a few pictures. The majority of the time you will see us happy, healthy and well groomed, but there is a significant cost involved to get each of us to this point which can be viewed at Foster Vetting Costs..

April 1, 2011


Alright, I’ll admit Champagne here has been a little bit naughty Mom, but you couldn’t possibly be serious about packing me up and sending me elsewhere? This is a joke isn’t it? Come on Mom put the tape away and let’s talk about this. Oh I got it! It’s April Fools Day…you are just messing with me Mom…..right??????


April 2, 2011


So what are you looking at? Rabbits like carrots so what’s wrong with Candice here nibbling on one. Oh, you pupsters are used to seeing them cut up. Well, Dad accidently dropped one while he was making juice and I happened to be in the right spot at the right time. I don’t think he even noticed. So, anyone wanna play Bugs Bunny with me?


April 3, 2011


Yeh, yeh Mom made me do it…posing with the belly bands once again. How pupsterliating You know these are nice and soft though. Wonder if she’d let us use these drawers as beds. Well, so much for that…I’d best get to the point. I am here to tell all of you that we pupsters are having a Belly Band Sale this month so if any of you Power Lifters out there are in need it is a good time to buy!


April 4, 2011


Ummmm, Mom, Sushi has a problem again. One of those little black spiders got in here again and she thinks it is something to eat! You had better educate her because we pupsters are not going to put up with her moaning and groaning when she gets bit and her tongue swells up. You have sat down with all of us and shown us pictures of insects that won’t harm us such as a fly and those that will. Sushi needs to take a refresher course!


April 5, 2011


We pupsters are all settled in for the evening. During the day we stay pretty busy and Mom has our small donut beds out for us if we need them. But at night we love to cuddle close together so she pulls out the big beds and we get so excited. It is a contest to see who can get in the bed first. As you can see we love to be close to each other. There is nothing better than snuggling in with those that you love!


April 6, 2011


We received another box of blankets today from the sweet lady who is always thinking of us. We did have a few disagreements over who got what as usual, but Lizzy jumped right in and let us know she would be the one to pick and choose who got what. She said that would eliminate a lot of disagreements. She was so silly, we had to cover our eyes with our paws and she then handed us a blanket. Actually it worked out pretty well…we all are very happy with her choices.


April 7, 2011


Mom, I am telling you Konrad did it! Look, he is even trying to hide behind me so you can’t put him in time out. Elizabeth here would never consider being a bit pushy with any of the other pupsters, but you know Konrad sometimes gets a bit out of hand. From the look in your eyes we both have a feeling this is not getting us anywhere, so go ahead, do what ya gotta do…we’re tough…we can handle any punishment you dole out!


April 8, 2011


Mommmmm, they are picking on me again! Geez, all Astro here did was grabbed a few ears and then those tails are irresistible! I have no idea why everyone keeps accusing me of being a cry baby. Now, does this picture look like I am a wimp? That’s something else the other pupsters have been calling me. I know that I should toughen up and when I do something naughty take my punishment from the other pupsters like a big boy, but as long as you come running when I cry, pick me up and snuggle me what could be better? So you see, it is not my fault that I am spoiled.


April 9, 2011


Someone needs to do something with Trevor. He is so packed full of energy his front feet very seldom touch the ground. He leaps, he twirls, he jumps over us and we just never know when he will be rounding a corner going full tilt. He is a pupster traffic accident waiting to happen. He needs to take a pupster course in manners, that’s what we think!


April 10, 2011


Marcy and Peeka reporting in. We haven’t visited with you in quite awhile. All is going wonderfully in our Forever Home and Mom says we are two of the most beautiful Pekeys ever! Spring is here and we are getting ready for our trips up north to our cabin. We love to go up there and relax. We miss all of you pupsters and hope to see you pupsters in the near future…we miss all of you.


April 11, 2011


Um, Mom I think you need to come out here! You know this new ball Dad bought for us pupsters? Well, I have a feeling it won’t be around long. Some of the pupsters (not mentioning any names) are working diligently to chew it up….not good. I think we need to stick to our indestructible toys like the nylabones and kongs. Some pupsters just never learn!


April 12, 2011


OK, I know it is supposed to be naptime, but I don’t have any nappy blanket to lay on. They are all taken. So that being the case I think Priscilla should be exempt from a nap today. How about if I just help you around the house instead? You know maybe help you whip up some treats for us kids or I could even help you get some new toys out for everyone. Hey, where you going? You mean to tell me there are more nappy blankets somewhere? Oh well, I tried.


April 13, 2011


Well, I got tired of waiting for my apple treats so thought I would just help myself. Notice there is only one apple here and that means big trouble for someone. One apple doesn’t stretch very far and it happens to be our favorite treat. No sense asking Mom to go grocery shopping…she’s allergic to those stores just like she is the kitchen. Guess we’d best go find Dad!


April 14, 2011


We pupsters really like our kong toys, but Logan gets just a wee bit over protective with these toys. He grabs on and won’t let go. If anyone gets near him he lets out a very low growl telling us to stay away. Now Mom says we are supposed to share. Guess she needs to have a long talk with Logan because he has no idea what that means. We think he could use a time out or two, but he has Mom wrapped right around his little paws so good luck with that one!


April 15, 2011


Our Estee left us today and she made a great impression on her new Mom. She loves belly rubs so shared her belly freely.



Sometimes we wonder about her. And then she cuddled and kissed her new Mom. Geez, you’d think she would have been at least a little bit shy and she could have acted like she was going to miss us just a wee little bit. That’s our Estee…she recognizes when something very special is happening for her. We are surely going to miss her, but she promised to call and email.


April 16, 2011


Lana and Shimmer emailed us today to let us know how they were doing. They love, love, love their Mom and Dad and said they are always doing something exciting. They have both let their hair grow out and wanted to share these pictures with us. The pupster boys think they both need to come back for a long visit. We girls think they are doing really well in their home and see no need for that. Not that we think they would be any competition or anything, but just think we should leave well enough alone.


April 17, 2011


Well, Hannah here took my shower this morning, spent a couple of hours doing my hair and when I went outside all my hard work was blown away. I couldn’t believe how windy it was…nearly blew me away. So much for trying to stay beautiful. I had some real plans for one of the pupster boys today, but don’t tell Mom. She frowns on any pupster affairs around here. We have to be very creative even to hold paws. You’d think once we reach a certain age chaperones would be a thing of the past, but not in this household!


April 18, 2011


Shasta (fka Vance) reporting in! Hey, how are all of you pupsters doing? I am so excited to tell you that I went camping with my mom and dad and brother Pepsi for the very first time!!!!!! I lovvvvvveee camping. When we drive real slow through the dirt roads I get to sniff out the window. I never seen so much stuff!!!! Dad and I look out the window together too. I love being spoiled. I love it here but I miss you pupsters, grandma and grandpa a lot. Mom says we will come see you someday. That will be fun.
Puppy Kisses to all. Love you,
Shasta

No, I do not love my Easter Bonnet with all the frills upon it! This is totally out of control Mom. You need to get a grip on yourself. We pupsters were not made for you to play dress up with. If you want to do that we’ll buy you a Barbie doll! Get this stuff off me right now and let’s get down to doing things that we pupsters can enjoy like coloring Easter Eggs and preparing for our yearly Easter Egg hunt.


April 20, 2011


Mom’s birthday was today although for some reason she said she doesn’t have them anymore. We were happy for she received lots of Happy Birthdays from so many people, some beautiful cards and two dozen roses. We think they look good enough to eat, but have a feeling we would be facing a BIG time out. As our gift to Mom we told her not to worry about picking up poop..we would handle the pick up (snicker) and we would set up the portions on dinner plates for our meals (yum). Mom said she would rather have us just give her lots of slurpy kisses and we were all for that!


April 21, 2011


Today was exciting. We have a new sister! Flower was flown from Kentucky to us by a really nice man, Randy. Dad went to the airport to meet them.



Flower is a beautiful little Pekingese girl who needs some special care. When we met her for the first time today she blessed us with her sweet Pekey snorts and kisses. A special thank you to Randy and all others who were involved in saving this wonderful little girl.


April 22, 2011


We pupsters are so excited. We have added a new item to our Gift Shop. A Portable Pet Water Travel Bottle. These are really neat for you can take everywhere with you to make sure that your pet always has water whenever needed. All of us pupsters wanted one of our very own, but Mom said no because we need to raise funds to help all of us. Please let all your friends and family know about our new Gift Shop item.


April 23, 2011


Whoa!! This wind needs to go away. We pupsters are nearly being blown away. Dottie and Rufus went out to check out the sun and a gust came up and nearly blew them away. We are OK with a soft breeze, but this is out of control. Well, as Mom and Dad say…you can expect anything in April, but the best thing is we know spring is finally here so we will just have to deal with these glitches in the weather.


April 24, 2011


We had a wonderful time yesterday coloring Easter Eggs. Ummm, we aren’t the best artists, but we sure had a good time. Some of us got a little out of hand and ended up with just a bit of coloring on us here and there.
We would all like to wish you a wonderful day today as you share this Easter with your family and friends.


April 25, 2011


Well, we’re getting ready for our big Spring Wrestling Match so try outs have begun. Crissy and Carson were the first on the list to present their wrestling talents. We were not very impressed. All Crissy did was smile a lot and Carson was more concerned about possibly injuring her….what a woose! We tried to explain to him that wrestling is very physical, but he would have none of it.


April 26, 2011


Oh come on Mom…we promise to be good and not get in the way while you are cleaning the floor. That little steam cleaner you have really makes us curious you know. Yeh, we know you tell us the water is too hot and you don’t want us near it, but honest we will not get in the way. So that being said turn us loose!


April 27, 2011


Oh Boy, does this spell trouble! Dad is at it again..he is sharing his doughnut with us pupsters. Now, he is smart…he waited until Mom was in the shower. Thing is she seems to have a second sense about things like this and ten to one she will know what Dad and we pupsters have been up to. Of course we know it is probably the frosting on our whiskers. Dad needs to wipe us off…you would think he would catch on eventually.


April 28, 2011


There is nothing better than snuggling in for a nice cozy nap, but Orlo here knows that you have to keep one eye open at all times. There are the younger pupsters who will jump on you just for the fun of it and then they laugh like crazy. And then there are the bed stealers who try to softly nudge you off your bed. You just always have to be on guard around here.


April 29, 2011


Hey look everyone! We have a new playmate. Anyway that is what we thought when we saw Mr. Snapper strolling across our yard. Boy, he is bigger than we are! We thought we could just climb on and go for a nice leisurely ride until Mom and Dad told us why he was called Mr. Snapper. We decided it would be safer just to observe him from afar. Wonder where he was headed?


April 30, 2011


Well everyone, here it is the end of the month already. The days just seem to fly by and we pupsters enjoy every single day to the fullest. There is always lots of love to go around. Yep, even for Lily here for I can be a bit difficult at times. Mom and Dad say everyone has their own problems, but that doesn’t make them any less worthy of being loved. We’ll see you next month!
