Story
This is Darlene. You don’t adopt Darlene. Darlene adopts you then critiques your life choices from the couch. In truth she is a professional cuddler, part-time zoomie champion, and a full-time good girl. She is fantastic with other dogs and her currently bestie in her foster home is another female shar pei...yep she is that good of a girl! Darlene is great with kids and in fact lived with kiddo's in her previous home. This girl is like most shar pei and fastidiously clean and would never even consider having an accident in the house. Her current hobbies include: -Following you to the bathroom (safety first) -Accepting snacks that she did not earn -Doorbell alarm system operator -Toy de-stuffing (surgery without a license) Darlene is the girl that doesn't care if you're rich, poor, tall, short, or binge-watch true crime every night - if you will love her, she is yours forever. She has been waiting for someone to pick her. Not because she is broken-just because she hasn't met YOU yet. If you think you might belong together. She is patiently waiting in the Riverside, CA area ...practicing her tail wags. Darlene is vaccinated, microchipped, spayed and absolutely perfect shar pei eyesMarch 7, 2026, 1:57 pm

Story
Rolls is an amazing 35 pound cuddle bug! She can be around other dogs, but would be best as an only dog as she can be an alpha. She is great with cats and kids!! Rolls is spayed, up to date on vaccines, is microchipped and is ready to go. She likes toys, isnt a huge fan of crates, and does have some separation anxiety (barking and scrarching) so would love to go along on activities or have someone who is home quite a bit. She walks well on a leash and greets strangers nicely. Mostly, she wants to cuddle. Her foster mom says she hasn't heard barking yet (probably because she is showered with love and attention). She loves to walk around with a stuffed toys when she get excited. If you are looking to spend time with and spoil this princess (named after Rolls Royce brand), she is waiting for you! She is fostering in the Corona, CA area.March 7, 2026, 1:57 pm

Story
Betty is an amazingly happy and spunky shar-pei that was surrendered from a home with way too many dogs. She is great with other dogs and kids. She is a great alarm for strangers and deliveries, barking appropriate warnings. Betty is cautious with strangers and will bark initially at strangers, but once she decides you're are okay, you are in!!! With her chosen/trusted people, she loves attention and is the first to show up and get in line when you pay attention to any other dog. She loves her rubs on her face and body. She loves to run/zoomies, but she is also calm & will sleep all day if given the chance. Betty enjoys laying in the sun at times. Betty is totally house trained and is completely fine left in the house. Not crate trained. She will panic if left in a room by herself. She wants to please, but not much obedience experience. Loves giving kisses. Betty would do best in a dog savvy calm home, who can read clues that she gives when she’s nervous or uncomfortable. Her foster is working on calmer car rides. She will sleeps in bed with you, and she comes when called, and takes treat with manners. She is good on walks, but still room for improvement on leash skills. Did we mention her absolutely gorgeous coat?? Betty is spayed, has had entropion eyelid surgery, is up to date on vaccines and microchipped. She is fostering in the San Diego area.March 8, 2026, 3:51 pm

Story
Daisy is an amazing female shar-pei, who grew up with a family that socialized her with other dogs, kids and even cats.   She is used to hanging out with the family.   Sadly, the family lost their housing and Daisy is looking for a family that she can have more fun with. Daisy is described as playful, energetic, friendly and affectionate, but she can also be quiet, shy and nervous.  She was used to sleeping on the bed, but would adjust to a dog bed if needed.   She has been to the dog park, does pull a little on the leash (her last vet appointment clocked her at 33 pounds so may be manageable),  and knows how to use a dog door.  She isn't a fan of mailmen and would prefer to walk over car rides.   She isn't a jump over the gate/fence, doesn't counter surf for human food, isn't a digger and only barks at people at front door...practically perfect! Daisy loves to be outside and is said to be very loyal to her people - could that be you? Daisy is fostering in Indio, CA.  She is spayed and is up to date on vaccines and microchipped.    March 9, 2026, 5:09 pm

Story
Meet Turbo – Your Future Best Friend! Turbo is an 8-month-old cream-colored Shar Pei mix with the softest coat and the sweetest soul. At around 50 pounds, this lovable pup is still just a baby at heart – playful, social, and full of goofy charm. He absolutely adores other dogs and kids, and he’ll thrive in a home with canine buddies to play and cuddle with. This is the dog that will love your kids as much as you do! He will be there to cuddle with them on their toughest day! He would love to be on the sideline cheering when they score their first goal or home run  of the season.   Turbo’s previous owner cared deeply about him and made the tough decision to surrender him so he could get the eye care he needs. He is neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped, and more than ready to meet his forever family.   &#226&#156&#168 Special Needs, Special Pup: Turbo has a condition called Corneal Endothelial Dystrophy, which causes cloudiness in the eyes as certain cells slowly die off over time. While there’s no cure and his vision may gradually decline, his current vision is still good, and daily eye drops (about $20/month) can help slow the progression. The condition is not painful, and he’s a happy, active boy – just needs a little extra love and care!   Turbo is currently fostering in Riverside, CA, and he’s looking for a family who’ll see how amazing he is – eye drops and all. Could that be you?   Great with dogs Great with kids Neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped &#239&#184&#143 Needs daily eyedrops (non-painful condition)   Apply to meet Turbo – because this sweet, squishy boy is ready to run straight into your heart!  March 7, 2026, 1:57 pm

Meet Donette: Your Wrinkly Walking Companion! Looking for a leash-walking superstar with adorable rolls for days? Say hello to Donette, a charming shar-pei who's ready to trot into your heart! This spayed, microchipped, and fully vaccinated lady has mastered the art of the neighborhood stroll—though fair warning, she's got some serious prey drive when it comes to cats on the run! What Makes Donette Special: • __Perfect Leash Manners__ (after the initial excitement wears off!) • __Crate Trained Pro__ – sleeps like a dream and eats her meals politely in her den • __Gentle Treat Taker__ with zero food aggression • __Easy-Going for Grooming__ – ears, paws, tail? No problem! • __Dog-Friendly__ (with proper introductions) and currently living harmoniously with other pups. She much prefers the calmer dogs in the home and avoids the rambunctious puppish dogs (so annoying!) Donette's Dream Home: This sweet girl thrives in a calm, adult-only household where she can decompress and build confidence at her own pace. She's still learning that toys are fun and would love a patient family who understands that unpredictable movements and loud noises make her nervous (hence no small kids). Give her space around her head, and she'll reward you with loyalty and companionship! __Ideal Match:__ Adults or older kids only, no small children, cat-free home, patient dog lovers who appreciate a work-in-progress with tons of potential! She is probably a one person dog. Ready to give Donette the peaceful, loving home she deserves? She's waiting to meet you! She is fostering in Southern California (San Bernadino county).March 7, 2026, 1:57 pm
