Story

DOB: August 2018Weight: 27 lbsDisposition: Confident, Inquisitive, PlayfulEthel was rescued on 5th August 2020 during a slaughterhouse closure together with another 14 dogs conducted by FOUR PAWS in Kampong Thom, Cambodia. After rescue she was housed at Animal Rescue Cambodia in Phnom Penh until she flew stateside at the beginning of December 2020 when she joined us at The Barking Lot.Ethel has the cutest little ears there ever was and their a dead giveaway for her Shar Pei roots! This lovely girl used to be timid around other dogs, especially at dinner time. Like many of our rescues who have been through traumatic experiences, she gets defensive about her food. The rest of the time, Ethel can be coy, but she is learning to trust again and is really relaxed with her caretakers. Ethel has a lovely, inquisitive nature and is building trust with new people daily. She enjoys handling and cuddles from people she trusts and is treat motivated. If you're interested in meeting Ethel, please visit our website and fill out an adoption application: www.thebarkinglot.net/adoptTo initiate the adoption process for this dog, please complete our online application by clicking below.

Story

Meet Molly (you may remember her as “Rita”) – a gorgeous black Shar-Pei with a heart full of love and just enough wrinkles to prove she’s wise beyond her years. Through some very sad circumstances, Molly has found her way back to Pei People, this time with her brother, Baron, by her side. We promised her that this next chapter will be the one where she finally finds her forever. Molly is a sweet, slightly timid girl who tends to favor women at first—but don’t worry, gentlemen, she just needs a little extra time to warm up. She was deeply attached to her previous mom and is already showing brave progress in bonding with her foster mom. With patience, kindness, and a few snacks, she’ll be your loyal shadow in no time. Like many Shar-Pei, Molly has a few skin issues, but this girl takes it all in stride. She hops right into the shower for her medicated baths like a pro, happily soaking up the extra scratching and lathering—it’s basically spa day in her eyes! Molly may be petite in confidence right now, but her love is enormous. With a gentle hand and a big heart, she’ll reward her forever family with loyalty, snuggles, and a daily dose of Shar-Pei charm.December 1, 2025, 3:01 pm

Story

Meet Dolce — Sweet by Name, Sweet by Nature Fostering in Phoenix AZ Dolce truly lives up to her name — she’s the definition of sweet! This lovely girl has had a bit of a rollercoaster journey and somehow found herself in need of rescue twice. We like to think we’re pretty great at screening adopters, but clearly, Dolce slipped through the cracks — and we’re determined to get it right this time! She’s wonderful with other dogs and has previously lived with kids. We’re not sure about cats yet, but she’s such a gentle soul we wouldn’t be surprised if she did just fine with a proper introduction. She is amazing with big and small dogs. Her BFFs are a malinois and a shitzu. Dolce is healthy overall, though she’s working on shedding a few extra pounds (aren’t we all?). She walks nicely on a leash, rides like a champ in the car, and has great house manners. This girl adores her walks and will go for miles if you are up for it! This girl has amazing skills at making you feel safe in your own home! There are zero worries you will ever have anyone in your backyard without this girl letting you know. Have we mentioned how much she loves water? Zero fear of the pool in fact looks at the pool as her own very large water bowl. She will also jump right in the shower with you if given the opportunity. Her only “flaw”? She doesn’t have that classic Shar Pei look — but what she lacks in wrinkles, she makes up for in personality and heart. She’s scheduled for her wellness check and bloodwork soon, but from what we can see, her eyes and ears are in great shape — no entropion and wide open ear canals! If you’re looking for a loving, easygoing companion with a dash of sass and a whole lot of sweetness, Dolce might just be your girl December 1, 2025, 3:01 pm

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Honey (she goes by Dolce, but we have another dog also with that name) came from a home with far too many dogs that overwhelmed the owner. Honey is 43 pounds, is recently spayed and is microchipped and up to date on vaccines. Honey is being treated for an ear infection, and is on some high quality food and fish oil to clean up her skin. She is a typical female, who can get a little growly around strangers poking and prodding (not a fan of the vet but manageable), but has lived with other dogs and kids with no issues. Her coat is cleaning up slowly with good food and some antibiotics. She came to us with a pretty patchy coat. Honey is the princess, preferring inside to out (she is completely housetrained, but just doesn't want to hang out in the yard otherwise). She is quiet, not a big barker and likes to give kisses and hugs. Honey is fostering in the Indio, California area. If you are looking for a pair, Royce came from the same home.December 1, 2025, 3:01 pm

Story

Camilla is a gorgeous cream shar-pei mix and this girl landed in the shelter after being abandoned in an RV with other dogs. Cami has lived with other dogs, but we've found she would do best as an only dog or a with neutral or submissive male dogs. She is very good with people, and apparently has seen the world (or maybe US) by car/travel. Camilla is about 4 years old, is spayed and had entropion eyelid surgery and has all her vaccines and a microchip. She is about 45 pounds. She is fostering in the San Francisco area and we will post more as we learn it.December 1, 2025, 3:01 pm

Story

Age: 1y4m Gender: Male Breed: Micro Bulldog mix Weight: 34 Personality: Super sweet and very low maintenance. He is so chill! It takes some time for him to warm up to new people, but once the trust is earned, he becomes very playful and affectionate. Friendliness: Dogs: No Cats: No Kids: No Education: Mostly Potty Trained, getting better by the day, and getting better at leash training Favorite Activities: He loves human attention, is very food motivated, and loves to play with his toys. He can play independently but loves a good game of tug-a-war with his people, too. Looking For: A loving and patient home who understands him and his breed requirements. He will need an adult-only home who are respectful of space, and help redirect him when needed. No cats please! Special Needs: Taking Prozac (~$5 for a month’s supply. Price depends on where purchased and market value) to help manage anxiety and fixation on objects while he continues his training. My adoption fee is $200 and that includes spaying/neutering, shots, and microchip.
