My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi! I'm Paikea! Fostermom pronounces my name Pike-ah, and I'm named after the lead character in the 2002 movie Whale Rider, just in case you were wondering.

I was brought to BARCS with my siblings after my old owner was arrested. We were kept outside in a yard for over a month, but no one could afford to feed us, so finally they took us to the shelter. Things have been much better since then. I was very skinny and had some skin issues when I got to the shelter, but I'm eating good food now in my foster home and the doctor says I've healed up perfectly!

I am staying with a foster brother, he's pretty nice to me. I'm working on good manners and learning to live in a home so that I make the perfect forever friend for someone like you!
