Joy Pekingese Adult - Adoption, Rescue for sale in Hollister, California

Joy is 6 yrs young. She came to us from San Martin Animal Shelter. Her original story is one of the horrors of back yard breeders. She was confiscated along with 20 other dogs, that were being used for breeding. Joy had several litters and was not socialized except with dogs. Her life was unimaginable.

The shelter had to work with her for some months to get her used to people, A couple in their mid 50's choose to adopt her and continue working with her on her fear of new people. After two years they recently returned her to the shelter as they were moving and could not take her with them, requesting the shelter euthanize Joy. They felt Joy would not handle going into a new home.

Staff members would not do it, as they all knew what Joy had been through. Once again Joy became frightened and a little fearful in the shelter environment, and would back into a corner. Staff and volunteers began to work with Joy once more, but listed her as rescue only. Her story caught our attention and the shelter worked with us until we could find a foster home for her.

Joy is a very sweet loving little dog, and became quite playful once she was out of the shelter. Look at the happy smile on her sweet face. She is very good with other dogs and had exposure to grandchildren children, she is housebroken, enjoys going for walks and having playtime. A quiet environment is best suited for Joy. She is scheduled to have a dental cleaning on January 23rd. Joy will make a wonderful companion for a couple who are retired or for someone who works from home.
