Backstory: Entered rescue after his owner passed away
Some dogs lose a home.
Tayoh lost his whole world.
One day, the person he loved was there. The next, everything changed. New faces. New places. New routines. For a little dog with a big heart, that is a lot to carry.
Tayoh is a young long-haired Pekingese Chihuahua mix who is still trying to understand where he belongs. He came into our care after his owner passed away, and while he is safe in foster care, you can tell this sweet boy is still searching for the familiar comfort he once knew.
Despite his heartbreak, Tayoh is beginning to show us little glimpses of the happy dog he wants to be. He gets excited for walks and loves stopping to sniff every interesting smell along the way. He is treat-motivated, loves to play, and enjoys learning that good things can still happen.
Because of all the recent changes in his life, Tayoh can be cautious in new situations. He does best with slow, gentle movements and will need a family that understands trust is earned, not rushed. We do not recommend grabbing or forcing interactions. Instead, Tayoh thrives when he is given patience, kindness, and the opportunity to come to you on his own terms.
Due to the unpredictable nature of young children, we are seeking a home with older, respectful children only.
As a long-haired breed mix, Tayoh will also need a family committed to regular grooming to keep his beautiful coat healthy and comfortable. We believe he would do best with a breed-savvy family that understands the sensitive nature often seen in companion breeds and is willing to help him continue building confidence.
What Tayoh is really searching for isn't fancy toys or a perfect yard.
He's searching for someone willing to help heal a heart that is still grieving.
Someone who understands that love doesn't erase loss, but it can help a dog believe in happiness again.
If you have room in your home and heart for a little survivor who just wants to feel safe again, Tayoh may be waiting for you.
OUR LOCATION & TRANSPORT POLICY:
Fur Ever Yours Animal Rescue is based in Okanogan County (Eastern Washington), where our dedicated first-line foster homes are located and where veterinary care is most accessible. Because we cross-list our dogs in multiple regions to help them find the perfect match, you may see this dog listed in several cities.
For Small Dogs (Under 20 lbs): Once an adoption application is fully approved, we provide volunteer-based transport to designated meeting spots in Ellensburg, Leavenworth, Wenatchee, Moses Lake, or Brewster for Western/Central WA families.
For Eastern WA, Montana, or Idaho Families: We host pre-arranged adoption meet-and-greets in Reardan or Spokane Valley.
Please Note: We do not transport dogs sight-unseen without an approved application and processed adoption fee.
ADOPTION FEES & MISSION:
Our adoption fees do not purchase an individual pet; rather, they act as a direct donation that funds our entire rescue ecosystem. Because we pull medical cases, seniors, and neglected animals from under-resourced rural areas, your adoption fee is pooled directly into our medical fund. This directly supports the rehabilitation, dental surgeries, and specialized care of every single dog currently resting under our roof.
