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..

MMMM Good!! Breakfast is served. Hey, how many of you get breakfast served in bed every day? Well, we do because we are very, very special you know. We do eat raw food, but Mom is so silly sometimes. She'll put our plates down and say "Bacon and Eggs comin' up!" or for dinner she'll tell us "Steaks grilled especially for you." We just go along with her game because we wouldn't want to dampen her spirits. She means well and we know how much she love us.

Auntie Nita had a garage sale for us once again this year and collected enough money to take care of at least three of us pupster's veterinary needs. We so appreciate the help she gives us each year. We pupsters know how much work a garage sale can be. All of us send lots and lots of special kisses to our Auntie Nita. Thank you so very much!

Shhhhh, Victoria. If you are really quiet maybe Mom won't see Petula here. What a great disguise I've found. Your hair is just right. Maybe she'll think I am someone else. Not that I am trying to hide or anything because I am really, really sorry for getting into the waste paper basket, but it was Mom that forgot and left it out so she should take responsibility for the mess, not me!

Braden won the draw of the straws and has the privilege of being our 4th of July Poster Pupster. We all want to wish you a wonderful 4th of July. We would like all of you to please keep all of the men and women that so courageously serve our country in your daily prayers. We definitely are not political pupsters and we feel that all living creatures should join together for the good of all. It is amazing what can be accomplished when you work side by side with the same common goal – we pupsters are living proof of that.

We have had some sunny days and talk about being revitalized! The Wrestling Season is going strong, but don’t tell Mom! We are in serious training now, a little weight lifting, pushups and situps. We are hoping to draw more foster journal fans this year for our bouts. We just wish Mom would be more receptive to the sport for then we could probably talk her into some really neat uniforms. We’ll work on her this season and see if we cannot get her to come around to our way of thinking.

Is the laundry done yet Mom? Harlan and Angie here are getting rather uncomfortable laying on these blankets instead of our soft plushy beds. We think you need to have a talk with the “pee pee” perpetrators who continue to do their deed. I think they should have to wear belly bands. At least then we wouldn’t have to go through this agony for a few hours. We are suffering from “cushy bed syndrome” here you know!

We pupsters can travel in style now! We have these really neat Sherpa Pet Carriers. Mom can just throw the straps over her shoulder and away we go! We like them so much that we suggested that Mom add them to the Gift Shop. If you would like your baby to ride in style just visit our Sherpa Pet Carrier Page to purchase. Trust us, your baby will love it..so cozy and warm in here!

We love our Unkie Jeff so much and we are very worried about him. He had an accident and has broken his neck. He has a long road ahead of him. He has begun a rehabilitation program to help him regain his motor skills. At this point he has very little use of his body. We pupsters ask that all of you please keep him and Auntie Sue in your prayers.


July 12, 2011


We would like to extend a special thank you to Auntie Dona and Unkie Jeff for transporting this precious cargo. You see we received this call about eight pupsters in need. They had been found in an abandoned building. Only one rescue offered to take one of them so that left seven.



We made some calls and were able to find help for four and three came into our fold. Auntie Dona and Unkie Jeff picked them up for us and transported them to their destinations. We are so relieved they are all safe!!

Hi Everyone!! It is Shasta (fka Vance) making my monthly Forever Home report. Yep, I am still obsessive about balls. I never tire of chasing the ball down. Mom and Dad’s arms sometimes get a bit sore, but they know how much I love the “ball game” so try to accommodate me as long as possible. I miss all of you pupsters, but life could not get any better than this.


July 14, 2011


Decisions, decisions….so many to choose from. We pupsters are really liking the new item in the gift shop. These portraits are really cool. We are all going to send our picture in and request a custom portrait. We can’t wait to see what they are going to look like. Boy, Mom had better get some frames picked out and check wall space availability. Hey, if your pupster would like a portrait just visit our Gift Shop and they can order their very own portrait.


July 15, 2011


Marco, you stick your tongue in my ear one more time and I am telling Mom. You’d best be ready for a huge timeout because this is very inappropriate behavior. Caprice here knows you think you are really macho, but frankly you have absolutely no effect on me whatsoever. If you think this is romantic you are way off base. I think it is absolutely disgusting so please direct your amorous behavior to one of the other pupster girls.


July 16, 2011


I am not yelling! I am just raising my voice a bit so I can be heard over all of this barking. Mom, you need to get these pupsters under control. Now, common sense would tell you that if Dad goes out the door, he has to come back in, right? And unless he has been disguising himself without me knowing you’d think the pupsters would recognize him. But oh no, the door opens and off they go! It is absolutely ridiculous and I have had my fill! Can’t even get a decent nap in.


July 17, 2011


Whew! Is it ever hot today! Moxie here normally spends most of my day outside enjoying the sun, but will have to admit even I could not handle the warmth. So I decided I’d best just come inside, spread out and relax. Guess I’ll have to put my order in with the weatherman. I need about a week of 72 degree weather, sunny and a nice soft breeze blowing through my hair.


July 18, 2011


Hi everyone! Remember me??? Yep, it is Brandy reporting in from my Forever Home. Hey, pupsters take a look at my top knot! Pretty neat don’t you think? At least here I know there is no one to yank and pull at it. I am so very happy here. I get an abundance of love and lap time and do not have to share with anyone. I do miss all of you especially a particular pupster boy…not mentioning any names.


July 19, 2011


Mom, why are you looking at Otis that way? I am just settling in for my afternoon nap. I have absolutely no idea who got the treats off from the counter. It certainly wasn’t me! What did you say? Oh, you want to know why I am licking my nose. Well, if you have to know the Kleenex was out of reach so a guy has to do what a guy has to do you know. Why do I have this feeling you don’t believe me?


July 20, 2011


Yoo Hoo, Tianna could you just pay attention for a few minutes please? You have been napping most of the day. Promise here needs someone to talk to. I can’t talk to Mom about this for she wouldn’t really understand. You know I am really in love with Logan. Yeh, I know he is a Shih Tzu, but I just can’t help myself. Well, he just doesn’t seem to have any interest in me so I was wondering if you could give me some advice for all the boys seem to really like you. Maybe I need to change my hair color or my hair do.


July 23, 2011


Today was really exciting! Dad drove to the airport to meet our new foster brother Pepper. He is 13 years old and his owner dumped him at a shelter because he was losing his sight. He had been with her since he was a puppy.


Can you imagine anyone giving up a pupster after all of those years? He had company on his flight….Whitey and Jimmy who were also dumped at a shelter. They are going to another rescue, but are safe also. We pupsters will never understand how some human beings can be so cruel.


July 31, 2011


Well, it has been a very busy month and we pupsters are just plain tuckered out! Mom has been busy tending the flower gardens and doing her normal daily chores. And then there have been the storms that move in at night…not much sleep happening here. Mom never takes naps, but she has had to change her schedule to get a bit of sleep for she knows we will be up all night. So not much time for the Foster Journal, but we’ll do better next month! See you in August…..
