About Small Critters Rescue

I become a foster for a nation wide breed rescue group when my Pekingese passed on. I grew up with Pekingese all my life and understand the breed well. Also grew up with Parrots and other small animals. I believe even the hard to place pets should have a fighting chance with the proper person to be rehabilitated so it can find a forever home. Sometimes I get one in that doesn't warm up to me and have other foster homes that deal with certain breeds that we transport to. I specialize in the pekingese breed and rehabilitate puppy mill dogs. IF any dog I post for adoption came from a puppy mill it will be noted. Puppy mill dogs do not get posted until they get socialized. If what we have posted gets adopted this doesn't mean we do not have anything coming available, So if your looking for a peke don't hesitate to contact us to setup an appointment to see ones that we are working with.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
