Must Love Pekes
Must Love Pekes is a blog for those who love Pekingese -- their looks, their antics, their personalities. It is written by me, Linda, and I have been rescuing Pekingese for over 22 years. Lots of them have come through our home. We have loved them all.

MOVING STUFF
Paddington is wondering what I’m doing. Being in a new house means things don’t always work where you first put them. We have been in the new house for about 3-4 weeks. It’s a smaller house so it takes time to figure where things fit the best. And some things will be given away.
The dogs favorite ottoman. They guarded the back yard diligently at the other house. But there’s no place where it could go. Until… I moved things in my office so they could have their special look out. There’s usually 3 up there. Cinnamon was somewhere taking a nap. Gwennie used the couch instead. My office is much smaller now but the Pekes let me know they were a priority. Of course they are right. The piano had to be moved too. (There’s a grand piano too. I’m looking for a home for it.) Thank goodness it’s on wheels. Piper was trying to help. We had to push it around a corner and down a hallway. All the dogs thought I was crazy. Maybe I am. I think moving makes everyone a little crazy. They were a little crazy too. But now they’re settling in, getting used to the new house. We’re making progress. 😁

WELCOME CHA CHA
WELCOME LITTLE GIRL
Cha Cha is the little one I posted the other day. We got her yesterday. She saw the vet and has tacrolimus for her very dry eyes. She's 7.2 pounds.
In person, this little one is even smaller than I thought. And her ear does stand up, It's adorable.
She loves to be held.
I gave her a medicated bath. Her skin needs to heal, and she has a bladder infection. But those can get better. She goes to her new home this morning and it's a wonderful one! I gave her a medicated bath. We walked in the yard. She’s not familiar w them. Wednesday, July 1, 2026
BETHANY
Bethany was a Christmas ‘24 pup. She was one of the shyest of the group. She has blossomed!
Her Mom took these awesome pictures of her. Look at her face. 💚

BRUCE AND OTHERS
Remember Bruce? Our shelter friends asked for help because he needed a dental badly so he had to go to rescue. He wasn’t a Peke but we said yes.
His new mom sent me pictures and said he is such a love. Bruce was at the shelter I lived close to. I wanted to share some small dogs that are at that shelter now. Maybe we can help them find homes.
When you're in rescue, you want to help as many as you can. I've worked with one shelter consistently for about 15 plus years. They are trying to find homes for the small dogs at their shelter because they're running out of space. This is Barnaby. He's 6-year-old Shih Tzu mix. He was a stray and scared, but he is warming up. (ADOPTED)
This face... Beethoven is a 10-year-old neutered male Shih Tzu mix. He does have cataracts and his trachea has issues, but he's a wonderful little boy. I love the special ones.
This is Mindy. She's a 7 year old female who looks like a Jack Russell mix. She's shy but warms up quickly. She's ready to have a home.
This is a Prince, a Maltese mix. He needs a dental and is a sweet boy. So many dogs haven't been taken care of very well, but some medical help can make a big difference.
Colonel Cuddles is an 8-year-old male Pom mix (?). He loves attention. He seems healthy and wants a home soon.
Dawn K is a 10 year old, who looks like a schnauzer mix type. She does have mammary masses, so needs someone who can give her medical care. She looks like she needs a lot of TLC. Marcus is a special need Chihuahua mix boy. He was a stray and walks funny. It could be neuropathy. Nothing is broken and it doesn't get in his way. He wants to be the center of attention all the time. :-)
DJ is a small Yorkie type mix. He is shy but loving.
If you would like more information on any, message me on Facebook. Even though they aren't Pekes, I would love to help find them homes. (They are in the Chesapeake/Virginia Beach area of Virginia.)

ZEKE THE PEKE
It’s been almost 3 years since Zeke came into rescue.
I was driving home from a shelter and another shelter messaged. So I picked Zeke up too. He was so awesome. And I immediately knew the perfect family for him.
Zeke has brought so much joy to them. I love the updates they send.
Happy day Zeke! ❤️

HELPING THE SENIORS
The shelter I work w said they had a lot of small dogs. This one just grabbed my heart. Her owner turned her in but I do t know why. Do any of you love the seniors? Do any of you like to give the special ones a place to be safe and loved? To work w our rescue, you have to be in our area— areas close to or in Va and Md. (some rescues will adopt out of their area but w limit our adoptive area). I would love to help some of the shelter seniors or small dogs find homes. 🥰
