DENVER— SO MANY PEKES IN NEED

This is Denver.   Our rescue has received SIX requests to take in Pekes  in the last three days.  

Denver was in a shelter near me and they messaged me yesterday.  Denver's owner died and the shelter was out of space.   So, I raced over.   He stayed in the office and didn't go back to the kennels.  

He lived on a farm-- with goats, chickens, dogs... 

He smelled like a chicken coop.   LOL   Denver is a BIG boy at 26 pounds.  Yes, he needs to lose weight.   But, he can do that.    Small changes in diet make a BIG difference over time.   (We had one dog who was 33 pounds and got down to 20, a good weight.  It took a year, but we did it!)  

After two baths, and a cream rinse, Denver rolled around on the porch.

He met Callie-- and she was so excited!!!

After I picked Denver up at the vet, I noticed he needed eye care.  I called my wonderful ophthalmologist and she said "come right now."   So, I have three eye meds for him, and he will have a recheck in a month.   

Denver is 6 years old and seems very sweet.  Stay tuned for more on him.  

He is a happy boy! 💓
