CHRISTMAS PUPS

Friends have been sending me (or posting) Christmas pictures. That’s Wicket/Wiggie w his sister Luna. They are sweet! 

Cinnamon loves all the Christmas pillows and blankets.  They’re everywhere. The couch is her favorite spot. 

Jingle got a new big bed for Christmas. 🎄

These aren’t pups, but they were at the Christmas Eve service. It was awesome. 

I even had a picture w them.  Joy was everywhere. 🤗

Kids loved it.  Adults did too.  

Our family has a thing about llamas. I know this is an alpaca but it’s close enough. 🦙

Baby cow, donkey, sheep, goat.  And then, when we left church, snow machines were going and it was great.  

One of the vet techs posted her dogs. ❤️

Another friend posted hers- The Parks Pups.  Some are therapy dogs. 

Tulip (Tinsel) and Percy (Nicholas)  were so relaxed at home. They are timid but they did so well. 

Jack was enjoying some toys. His favorite. How many did  he get for Christmas? 

Gracy was rescued earlier this year. She was on the naughty list. 😂. She has a lot of energy  and doesn’t always make good choices. Poor Gracy. 

I hope you had a beautiful holiday.  🎄 And that you can have a peace filled weekend as we look toward 2026.  This year has gone so fast! 

THE DAY AFTER 🎄

My heart is full on Christmas evening. I’m taking time to just put my feet up and feel the love that was there. Time spent w my girls, my sons in law and my grandkids.  

To all who messaged to say Merry Christmas, thank you.  Some sent Christmas Day pictures of our adopted Pekes like Cody and Holly of the Christmas rescue.  What a year it has been.  I’ll be sharing more later. 

I hope your Christmas was magnificent.  🎄
 

LOOKING FOR SANTA

Where is Santa?

Piper and Paddington kept looking out my study window. I think they were looking for Santa. 

Paddington gave up but Piper was diligent. I tried to tell him that the NORAD Santa tracking said Santa was no where near our house. It was still light outside.  He comes when it’s dark. 

They all decided not to spend all day looking. 

There were lots of presents this morning so I think he did arrive.  The pups had no idea because they were sound asleep.  Today we will be busy w family enjoying and loving each other.   

I hope the holidays have been good to you. 🎅

Share pictures of your holiday pups. 🎄We would love to see them. 

OLIVER AND BELLE OF THE 🎄RESCUE

Oliver/Moose and Belle/Minnie were the last two of the Christmas pups to come in.  

They weren't as critical as the others.  Oliver/Moose was under 12 pounds and Belle/Minnie was under 9 pounds.  They were timid at first, but that soon changed.  

After a short stay at their first foster home, they went to their new foster home.  They decided that the back of the couch was a great spot!  

Can you see more?   How many do you see.  Leia/LiLi (from the Maryland 5 rescue) was trying to get in the picture too.  

Their new mom says, "They definitely are so precious and so loved.  They have brought a lot of joy to our hearts." 

Belle/Minnie likes to sleep on the couch, but she also likes to be in their bed, squished between their pillows.  She's small so she doesn't take much space.  

Oliver/Moose likes to climb on them and wrap his paws around their necks.  He gives them a kiss and then goes back to sleep.  

Minnie and Moose have fit right into their new pack-- 10 Pekingese!   We love this home, and they truly love Pekes-- 3 are now PVPC alumni.  They will have a first Christmas this year.  Merry Christmas little ones-- all of them.  🎄🎄
   

NONO--NOELLE'S FIRST CHRISTMAS

Nono aka Noelle has come a LONG way since she came December 23 last year.  One year ago today. 

Here she was last year.  She is so much healthier now and that outfit no longer fits. That’s a good thing. 

Nono was so afraid of everyone and everything.  Her foster parents kept her because she was so timid.  They didn't want her to go through another change.  

She was so little-- about 9 pounds when we got her.  She has gained weight and has a lot more hair now.  It's so amazing how vet care and love can make sure a difference.  

She took so much comfort in her sisters, Mei Mei and Ren. They are older, but they like her to cuddle up with them. 

Ren, Nono and Mei Mei are all decked out for Christmas.   

Nono gravitated toward her dad the most.  We were surprised since most of them didn't like men.  But, David had that special touch.   This week, for the first time, she crawled between her mom and dad on the couch.   Progress is still happening.   I'm so glad they kept her. 

Nono, like all the Christmas rescue friends, is having her first real Christmas.   Merry Christmas sweet Nono.  It's going to be an awesome Christmas!  🎄🎄

TULIP AND PERCY CHRISTMAS

Percy (Nicholas of the 🎄rescue) has found his spot under the tree. 

Tulip (Tinsel of the 🎄rescue)  at the beginning of her rescue.  She was underweight like the rest. She needed medical help.   

I used a lot of Christmas sweaters when they all came in. 

Tulip looked so cute. 

This is her first real Christmas. She is curled up next to the tree. A big change from before she came to us. 

They both joined Penny from the Bristol 18 rescue  of 2010.  Penny is over 17 now.  She is still the boss. She barks, Tulip and Percy listen.  Penny is fine being carried. She gets around well but she likes the extra care. 

They are all safe this year.  They supervised decorating. 

Tulip approved of the snowman. 

I bet Percy helped set this up. Peke paws at work 

After all that work decorating, it’s time for a snooze. Were sugar plums dancing in his head?  Sweet dreams are there for sure.  This will be a sweet Christmas for them. 🎄

PAULEE CELEBRATES

Paulee celebrated his birthday several days ago. I love his toy!  His mom calls him a spicy Peke. 😂. 

Paulee is looking forward to Christmas. While he waits for Santa, he is playing w his birthday gifts and he won’t share. He had doggie ice cream and he wouldn’t share that either!  

Paulee is w his brother Wallace.  Paulee is spicy and Wallace is “naughty.”   They must be an interesting pair!  😂. Have a Merry Christmas you two! 🎄🎄

LUDO, TOBY AND CHRISTMAS

 Ludo (Fizziwig) and Toby (Gabriel) were part of the Christmas rescue.  Ludo came in January but Toby came December 23 in the first group.

Ludo (Fizziwig) is all set for the holidays. 

When he came into rescue with Winter, Dickens and Mistletoe, he needed so much help.   He is on the right standing.   

Toby was in rough shape— (Dickens was the worst.) even as malnourished as they were, they still wanted attention.  It was amazing how sweet they were.

Toby/Gabriel was in the vet a while w the others, receiving care and giving me time to find foster homes.  

He had a small non visual eye. But that face made one person fall in love.  His future mom. 

He was in the first group that traveled to me.  He’s the third from the back. 

There he is w Dickens.  I had a lot of cone heads in the house. 

Toby and Ludo became friends while at my house. So I was so happy to know they were going to be brothers forever. 

More change came, but then they realized that the change meant a forever family. 

They continued to love to be as close as possible. 

They are both so much healthier now.  Look at the fluff. 

Resting under the tree is a wonderful, peaceful place. 

Their sister is Olivia who was also one of our rescues. She wanted to be a Peke. 

This is going to be their “First Christmas” and I’m so happy for them.  🎄❤️
