SWEET JOLLY

Jolly was adopted to a wonderful family, but it didn't work out.  He's back with his foster family and TD.  

We found that Jolly can't be alone for long periods of time.   And we realized he needs a friend. 

Jolly was here awhile, and he made me laugh when he jumped in the dryer.   He may look solemn, but he's not.  He's happy!

He enjoys being held and he would love having one pf other dogs from his group.  

Jolly is about 3-4 years old and is small-- under 10 pounds.  When we got him, he was only 7.2 pounds.  

Jolly will need a home where someone is around most of the time.  He needs a dog friend to play with.  He loves walks with his foster dad.   He isn't too sure of the big dogs he sees, but he knows his foster dad is right there.   He is a happy, loving boy.  If you can offer him the home he needs, you can apply.  Home and vet checks required.

PIPER AND PADDINGTON—BIRTHDAY!

Piper and Paddington came into rescue 6 years ago last month.  

Their owner was in the hospital and couldn’t take of them anymore.  Paddington looks at Piper as his father figure. 

They had all their medical completed.  My husband had never asked to keep any of the dogs I fostered.  But he asked if we could keep them. ❤️❤️ 

Paddington has grown long beautiful ears. He is a stunning red Peke.  

Piper has become my shadow.  Where I go, he goes.  I was told he was a Malti-Poo.  When I did a DNA test on him, he wasn’t a Malti-Poo.  He was a Shih Tzu/Maltese.  And he even has 2% Pekingese!  

Paddington is a big mush.  You can hold him on his back like a baby.  I can trim his nails and he doesn’t budge. 

They found the Pekingese pathway in the yard right after they came.  

Paddington has the nickname “Bad Pad.”  He has been known to be a pistol w male foster dogs.  😩

But how could I stay mad at this face.  Nope.  Can’t do it. 

When Cinnamon came into rescue, Paddington became her protector.  He has never fussed at her!  

Now they celebrated another birthday here.  Paddington turned 9 and Piper turned 10. 

Happy birthday Piper and Paddington. 🎂❤️🎂❤️

Let’s all celebrate! 🥳🎉

GRACEY—WELCOME

Another rescue contacted me about a one year old female Peke.  But she was in Ohio!   Way out of our area. HOWEVER I had a friend who lived 30 minutes away from her.  How amazing is that. She offered to get her and see how she was.  

They have adopted quite a few Pekes from us over the years.  (They had adopted before I began so I already knew what awesome adopters they were.) They recently adopter Emmi who has behavior and heart issues.  And they love her so much.  They still have Piper who I fostered a long time ago.  He’s an old boy now but he’s fine w Gracey. 

Gracey has been to the vet and is being updated on all she needs. AND Gracey isn’t going anywhere.  They already love her and are adopting her.   Gracey will have a wonderful life! 💕

HOLLY — CUDDLER, PLAYER

Holly is one of the Christmas rescue Pekes.  Look at that tongue.  It’s not like that all the time. 😄

One of her friends is Jellybean.  He’s a cuddler, too.  He came in w Snickerdoodle.  

All of them love to play w each other.  Rolling around, racing in the yard.  It’s a happy place. 

Holly will “sit pretty.”   That’s Brock w her.  He was one of the West Virginia 6.  They are such good friends.   And like the rest, Holly needs a friend.  If you’re interested, just submit an application.

NOELLE VISITS THE OPHTHALMOLOGIST

Noelle has come a long way.  She has her mini-me. She is so happy in her foster home. She will need a very patient, quiet home so she can learn that she is safe and loved as she adjusts to a new home. It takes her time to get used to new people.  But, at her foster home, she’s discovered toys, loves to run around.  She’s become very secure there. 

She saw the ophthalmologist this week and w her meds, her sight is improving.  If you are interested in her, she must have a doggy friend.  She would love to have one of her Christmas rescue friends to go w her.

We adopt in Maryland and Virginia and require home and vet checks.  We want the best homes for our precious foster dogs.  

LOUIE AND LADY

Louie came into rescue in 2011. Lady came to us in 2021.

Katie was Louie’s sister.  They were adopted together.  When she crossed the Rainbow Bridge, Louie was the only dog.  

When Lady came into rescue in 2021, I knew she would be a wonderful sister for Louie.  She was older but still had a lot of life left. 

They are great friends and are 

close to each other most of the time.  

Look at those sweet faces. I just want to kiss them both. 🥰

A DAY AT CAMP RUNAMUCK

Most days at Camp Runamuck begin w coffee time on the  couch.  I’m never alone.  I have great company.  Cinnamon and Mistletoe love being on the couch. 

Dickens may be playing w toys but he wanders over to me to be on the couch too. 

Callie gets up there, Paddington and Cinnamon join us. 

Piper is on my lap. 

We went into the kitchen and oh did they get vocal.  “Where’s breakfast?”

After breakfast and a trip outside, they’re all ready for another nap.  Dickens tries to go up the ramp.  And sometimes, he succeeds.   Now for another cup of coffee. ☕️☕️
