my best friend shows Shar Pei. she's had a couple litters with a co-owned
bitch, who was the number three Shar Pei in the country a few years back.
one of the puppies was given to a friend. he's a bit too lean and leggy to
be really good show quality, and obviously isn't breeding stock. so off he
went to the perfect pet life he deserved. or so she thought.

Edward's owners recently had a baby. and you guessed it, they suddenly
don't have time for their dog anymore. my friend, being the responsible
breeder that she is, is now tasked with re-homing the poor boy with a family
who can be his forever home.

he's three years old, he's not dominant, not dog aggressive, good with kids
and cats, very well socialized, and i'm completely in love with him.

just when i decided that two was enough.

but he's way too young, there will be pack stress. his breed means
potential aggression or dominance issues could creep up. i know better.

but i also know that this is a once in a lifetime chance. a gorgeous Pei,
with a wonderful temperament, from some of the best lines in the country...

*sigh*

life is so difficult at times.
