Shar Pei Dogs Available for Adoption in Lake Forest, California

Meet Chuy! This sweet young boy is settling beautifully into foster care with Pei People Shar Pei Rescue and has quickly proven himself to be an affectionate, social, and easygoing companion.

Chuy came to rescue after his owner was deployed overseas. His family wanted the very best for him and made sure he was neutered and vaccinated before helping him find a rescue placement

Chuy LOVES people. Like... aggressively devoted, “where are we going together?” levels of love. He has absolutely no boundaries and considers himself involved in all household activities at all times.

He loves other dogs and loves to run and play! He has met the resident kitties and wants to play with them as well with zero signs of aggression or prey drive.

He’s still learning commands, but he’s already figuring out that sitting politely earns treats — and he’s very motivated to continue his education!

We are surprised to learn he is crate trained. He is fully house trained and will go to the door to let you know he needs to go outside like the gentleman he is.

He is scheduled for Entropion surgery the end of May. He is neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped and full blood work

He is fostering in Phoenix AZ

The Shar Pei is a distinctive breed known for their deep wrinkles and blue black tongue. Originally from China, these medium sized dogs are loyal, independent, and protective of their families. Shar Peis have a unique appearance with a hippopotamus like face and a broad, padded muzzle. Their coat can be either horse coat or brush coat, coming in a variety of colors. While they can be aloof with strangers, Shar Peis are devoted companions with a calm demeanor, making them wonderful family pets.
