's message, "Stubborn little Peke" on 12:51:26 05/26/07 Sat
First off - God Bless You for adopting a rescued Peke!!!!! I am a member of a peke club that rescues pekes and I foster them until they find a permanent home.
And now I am, like Diane in her message, chuckling, at your predicament.... stubborn peke...NO..... LOLOLOL That is just too hilarious.... I have one like that, if it isn't where he wants to go, it's all over. The other two pretty much mind, but not my middle "child." Too funny...
Thank you so much again for rescuing your baby. Email me if you ever want to trade stories about your sweet peke.
