Hi everyone! My name is Google but my new foster mom calls me Cookie! I am a 3 year old, 10 lb Pekingese. I was rescued from a puppy mill in May of 2011. I was so matted that they shaved me down and boy, did I feel better after that! I was adopted from an adoption fair and unfortunately, my family and I weren't a good fit so I went back to NMDR. It turned out ok though, because I'm really learning about the good life at my new foster house. For the first time ever, I'm sleeping in a big bed at night and I looooove to snuggle with my new foster mom! She lets me cuddle right up to her and I like to put my face right into her neck and roll around! I get really snorty when I'm happy! I love to play with toys, balls, and chew bars! I get to go to work every day with my foster mom, I love people so much and I insist on pets and love from everyone I come across! Backyards are great and I will need a fenced yard to keep me safe but I know how to walk on a leash now and I love meeting strangers on the street! I am potty trained at my new house and office and have even learned to cry at the door to go out. My foster mom visits friends and I struggle at their houses and sometimes have accidents. In my defense, it's a lot to learn in a lot of new places. I think I'd be totally potty trained after a few days in a new, forever home. On days when I can't go to work, my foster mom leaves me out and I snooze on the couch. No barking, no chewing, and no potty accidents! When we visit friends, I have my own special crate I stay in and I like that too! I don't live with children but I love when they come to the office. They're so much closer to my size and I love getting snorty in their faces because it makes them squeal and giggle. I'm not sure about tiny toddlers but I bet they'd be ok too. Like most dogs, I do have some quirks. I was returned because I really did not get along with my fur family. I think I spent so much of my young life packed in with other dogs that I am just not having it anymore! I will need to be the only dog but don't worry, I am a bundle of love and you won't need any other dogs! Plus, like many Peke's, I have dry eyes and will need to have medication in my eyes for life. My adoption fee was reduced to compensate for that. I am such a sweet, loving, little girl, ask to meet me and you will see for yourself! I love indiscriminately but my foster mom is more careful. We need to find someone who can be happy with me being the only dog and who is willing to care for me and my eyes for life! I've been bounced around enough; it's time to find my forever home! Ask for Google and we'll meet, fall in love and have a very happy life together!! MY11-35
