Story
She is housebroken and if she really has to use the restroom she is very vocal about it. She is very friendly while encountering other dogs while on walks. We have not yet seen her interact with cats or children. She is very good on the leash, she does not pull and she likes to look back to make sure we’re still walking with her. She knows commands such as sit, stay, and lay down. We do not know how she arrived at the shelter.She is very affectionate and just loves to be around people. She likes to lean her body on you and sometimes even lay on you. She is not really into playing with toys but we’ve learned that a good bone or bully stick will keep her entertained. She is very easy going when it comes to activity. She is a couch potato who loves the occasional walk. She also loves to run a bit if there is a big field of grass. When I look into Dottie’s eyes I can tell that she is a dog who trusts people and who just wants to be loved. The best adjectives to describe her is affectionate and sleepy. I know that she is affectionate because she is constantly trying to be as close to people as possible in a loving way. Her best quality is how charming she is. People are constantly telling us how cute she is and she always goes and says hi to people. One thing about Dottie is she is very vocal when she feels something. For example she whines every time we pull out the leash simply because of how excited she is. My favorite physical characteristic is her adorable face. She has the cutest face and sometimes when she yawns her cheeks get stuck in her mouth and she looks so cute. The ideal home for Dottie would be a home where the owners can love her and spend some good time with her. I could see her in a home with some older, retired people because she would keep them company and they would keep her company. And she is not the most active so she is really easy going when it comes to going potty. One thing about Dottie is she does struggle with a bit of separation anxiety but it can definitely be improved with a little bit of training and practice.

Story
Hazel needs a foster home! She was surrendered with her littermate do to their allergies. She has severe allergies that has never been treated agressively and therefore she would love a foster home to help heal and recover in. She will use puppy pads in the home, gets along well with other dogs, crate trained, walks well on leash and a couch potato! She is on a special diet, monthly shots and a couple pills a day to get in a more comfortable place. She would need 1-2 weekly baths as well! Sharpei`s are great dogs and very loyal and loving! Reach out about fostering her today!

PICKLES: BIG EARS, BIG HEART, AND A FUTURE IN HOME SECURITY! Who doesn't love a good crunchy dill pickle? Well, meet Pickles, and we promise she's MUCH sweeter than the ones in your refrigerator! Pickles came from the same situation as Poppi, and sadly, her story shares some of the same heartbreaking chapters. Another girl who appears to have spent far too much of her life producing puppies while not getting nearly enough food to fill in the gaps between her ribs. These girls deserved so much better, and now it's finally their turn to be spoiled rotten. But while Poppi's superpower is her never-ending smile, Pickles has a superpower of her own: EARS. GLORIOUS. ENORMOUS. EARS. You say those aren't Shar Pei ears? Well, around here, we don't believe in body shaming. We celebrate our differences, embrace our uniqueness, and flaunt what we've got! And Pickles has got enough ear to pick up satellite radio. We're pretty sure she can hear an Amazon delivery truck three zip codes away. Speaking of Amazon deliveries, Pickles takes home security VERY seriously. Every package delivered to your front porch will be reported immediately. Porch pirates, consider yourselves warned. Pickles is on patrol, and with those ears, your neighborhood watch program just got a major upgrade. Now, let's talk about the fun stuff! Toys? YES, PLEASE! Pickles loves a good toy and will happily entertain herself with one of her favorites. Chew bones? ABSOLUTELY! She's a girl who appreciates the finer things in life. A tasty chew bone and a cozy spot to enjoy it? That's living. ‍♀️ Game of chase? SHE'S LEADING THE CHARGE! Don't let her quiet demeanor fool you. When playtime begins, Pickles is ready to clock in for her shift as Director of Zoomies. Other dogs? HER PEOPLE! Pickles, just like Poppi, absolutely adores other dogs. These girls would love a friendly canine sibling to share their adventures with. And here's where Pickles and her sister differ. Poppi is the sister who bursts through the door, introduces herself to everyone in the room, and makes sure absolutely NO ONE is unaware of her arrival. Pickles? She's the sister standing politely in the back, taking it all in. She's listening to every word, studying the situation, and patiently waiting for her turn. She's basically the introvert at the party while Poppi is working the room like a politician running for office. But don't mistake her quiet nature for a lack of personality. Pickles has plenty of opinions, and she isn't afraid to share the important ones. Especially when someone dares to leave a package unattended on the porch Pickles had been seen by our vet and given a clean bill of health! She is spayed, had Entropion surgery, full bloodwork, vaccines and microchipped.❤️ After everything she's been through, this girl deserves a home where her food bowl stays full, her toys are plentiful, her chew bones are delicious, and her ears are celebrated like the national treasures they are. She doesn't need to be the loudest girl in the room. She just needs someone willing to see how special she is. Pickles is ready to trade puppy production for playtime, an empty stomach for a full food bowl, and an uncertain past for a forever family. And if you're looking for a loyal companion who loves dogs, enjoys her toys, appreciates a good snack, and will NEVER let a suspicious cardboard box go unreported, well... PICKLES IS YOUR GIRL! ❤️ Adopt Pickles. Because life is better with a little pickle in it!October 17, 2026, 5:51 pm

Story
Have you ever met a dog who literally NEVER stops smiling? No? Well, stop scrolling. You’ve found her. Meet Poppi, the girl who apparently missed the memo that life is supposed to be hard sometimes. Now, before you get too distracted by that ridiculously happy face, we need to talk about a few things. It’s pretty clear Poppi wasn’t exactly living her best life before joining the PEI People family. Her coat needs some serious TLC, and calling her skinny is like calling the Grand Canyon a little ditch. This girl needs groceries. LOTS of groceries. And those poor boobies? Let’s just say Poppi appears to have been running a puppy production facility for quite some time. We’re not sure how many litters she’s had, but we’re pretty sure she’s ready to retire from the baby-making business and pursue a new career as a professional couch potato. Her maternity leave is officially OVER. But here’s the thing about Poppi. Despite what humans have put her through, she is STILL out here smiling like she just won the lottery. Dogs really are something special. We can disappoint them, let them down, and fail them in every possible way, and somehow they still show up ready to love us. We honestly don’t deserve them. ❤️ Now, let's review Poppi's résumé: Dog-friendly? Absolutely! Poppi would love a friendly canine sibling to wrestle with in the yard. Finally, someone who speaks her language! ️ Food motivated? Is the sky blue? This girl LOVES to eat. She’s not particularly picky, either. Although she was offered a fresh carrot and promptly rejected it. Excuse her, but apparently she has standards. She may be starving, but she is NOT a rabbit. Good with kids? We think she’d be great! Poppi is basically a walking, wagging, smiling advertisement for happiness. Good with cats? We haven't officially tested her, but we're guessing she'd be just fine. Of course, the cat may have other opinions. Cats tend to be management around here. ‍♀️ Walks on a leash? Surprisingly well! And get this: she only started experiencing the joy of proper walks LAST WEEK. Imagine that. Nobody bothered to show this girl the world, and now she's discovering that there are entire neighborhoods full of smells she's been missing. Somebody get this girl a frequent walker punch card! Special talents? Watching TV with her head tilted to the side like she's trying to solve a complicated math problem. We don't know what she's watching, but we're pretty sure she's judging the acting. Crate trained? We're working on it because apparently every good adoption résumé needs that box checked. But honestly, Poppi would probably prefer to be wherever her people are. She's not applying for a job at the crate factory. Poppi will receive a full veterinary evaluation before adoption, and we'll make sure she gets the care she needs as she starts her next chapter. What Poppi needs now is pretty simple: a full food bowl, a soft place to sleep, some proper pampering, a friendly buddy to play with, and a human who will love her for the rest of her life. She's spent enough time being someone's puppy-making machine. It's time to be someone's BABY. Someone's spoiled rotten, sleeps-on-the-couch, gets-too-many-treats, has-her-own-blanket kind of baby. And honestly? She's earned it. ❤️ Poppi has two requirements for her forever home: love her endlessly and keep the groceries coming. So, who's ready to adopt a dog whose face permanently looks like she just heard the best joke of her life? Come meet Poppi. Warning: side effects may include smiling uncontrollably, sharing your snacks, and suddenly having a dog-shaped shadow following you everywhere. Adopt Poppi. She's got enough love for a lifetime, and she's ready to spend it with YOU. ❤️October 17, 2026, 5:51 pm
