Tennessee Pekingese Rescue is a small rescue that works thru foster homes. We do not operate a shelter. We take Pekes and Peke mixes from shelters in the area, as well as taking owner surrendered animals in need of help. Many of our animals are special needs due to age or health issues. Because of their size, and the fact that they are pretty fragile, many of our dogs are not appropriate for families with small children.
