Description:


Hey! Thanks for looking at me!

My foster mom tells me that I am one of the prettiest Pekie boys she has ever seen. She makes me smile! My name is Caleb but she calls me Keiko 'cause she says that means "adored one" and she adores me. Cool name huh?

I gotta tell ya, this house life is a darn cool thing! I used to live in a little wire box. It was cold, noisy and really smelly! Now I'm warm, my belly's full and I get to play with toys! Woo hoo!

I love the kids I live with and I really love the other dogs who play with me!! Foster mom laughs when I play because I make funny snorting noises. I can't help it! They just come out when I am happy.

There are a couple of other furry things living here too but I am scared of them. They hiss at me.

Sometimes I sleep in my crate and sometimes the big kid lets me nestle in with her at night. I always keep my crate tidy because I never want to go back to that smelly puppy mill place. I leave my smellies outside now.

Looking for a pretty boy who bounces when he's happy?

If you've got tasty food and a cushy dog bed then let's talk!

Ciao!

Keiko (aka Caleb)

Caleb came to us from a rural puppy mill. He never lived a day of his life as a normal pet in a home, with the love and attention a pet deserves until he came into rescue. Isn't that sad? He likely spent 24 hours a day in a crate, where he had to eat, sleep and potty. It is possible he had never even been petted in his life. Thank goodness he has been rescued from that life!

MARS has partnered up with a great facility, that used to be an impound facility and is now a rescue. Many puppy mill breeders bring their unwanted dogs to this facility. This rescue ensures every dog that leaves there is spayed or neutered and fully vetted. In addition, they spend time with each of the dogs to begin their socialization, and to get them used to human interaction. This extra care and attention gives these dogs a great jump start to becoming a beloved family pet.

Find out how rewarding it can be to teach this poor boy how to love and be loved.
