Shar Pei Dogs Available for Adoption in West Peoria, Illinois

Meet Midnight Glee, a 10 week old Shar-Pei mix puppy. Midnight is a zesty little butterball who loves to chew on your chin when snuggling. He already knows sit and out. He's learning wait and down plus he is partially potty trained. Midnight is great with kids and would rather chew a toy than chase his 2 kitty housemates. He currently weighs 11# and we expect him to be 30-40# full grown. This breed is not for every family. They MUST be socialized, they MUST be trained consistently. They will often need special care with, ears, eyes and wrinkles. We will be looking for families that understand the breed along with their needs. These are puppies that typically will not accept a new family down the road, so you are it. You are their entire world. These pups will require an owned home vs rented due to breed restrictions at many places.

Midnight Glee's adoption fee of $300 covers his neuter, microchip with registration, vaccines, and current monthly flea and heartworm preventions. Please apply at gfrpets.org/apply
