Tom - Pekingese Dog for Adoption in Houston, Texas

Hi! I'm Tom-a sweet, friendly little Pekingese rescue, and I'm looking for my forever home. I'm fluffy, adorable, and I love getting attention and cuddles.

Because I'm a rescue, I'm still learning a few things as I settle in-potty training and leash training are works in progress, but I'm figuring it out with patience, kindness, and consistency.

Right now, I'm doing "foster to adopt," which means you'll get to love on me and be part of my journey while I'm still learning and growing into my routine. And as soon as I'm neutered, we'll make it official and I'll get my forever home for real.

Could you be my person?
