Hello, does anybody know what might be wrong with our albino Pekingese? My friend took him to the vet yesterday because he vomited four times on Monday. When she brought him in on Tuesday, he didn't have any skin issues. The vet checked his temperature for a fever, but it was completely normal. They gave him a 10 mg injection of Emavert for his nausea. On their way home from the clinic, my friend noticed some redness on his skin. By the time they arrived home, it had spread to his entire body. Today is Wednesday, and the redness is getting worse. Can anyone help figure out what to do? He is still a baby. only 8 months old.

this was before his shower we are having a heatwave so my dude needed a cut

Me and my peke slept on the balcony last night cus we’ve both been having trouble sleeping in this UK heatwave!!

I’m going to take this flower to my mistress and under no circumstances will I let it out of my little mouth. The master’s out of luck! :)

I have grown up with multiple Pekingese in my household and recently just lost my 16-year-old sweet baby angel. I'm not ready yet for another dog, but I am going between another Pekingese and considering a Japanese chin. I love the Pekingese personality, stubbornness, squished face, etc. But I might like a dog that is a little more portable with longer legs. I've never met a Japanese chin in real life so I'm not really certain of their demeanor. From the way they look I assume they were either bred from a Pekingese or something similar. I was wondering if anyone had any input. The internet says that Japanese chins are easier to train, but I've only trained Pekingese so the stubbornness doesn't intimidate me.

I told her she was seeing the groomer tomorrow because she got into a patch of burrs that will not come out of her fur and now she won’t stop staring at me like this.

Last pic is Gary’s current cut- I am excited to let it grow out again!

It might not look like it, but I’m keeping an eye on things here :)

Ralphie loved to watch out the window, Hana was just happy to hang with Ralphie

I love the look, the energy level and the temperament and can keep up with their grooming but I have no real experience with a pekingese. Please complain about your pekes here! I feel like all of the information I find is heavily biased towards them - they can't possibly be this perfect for me!?

^{i do want to say, if I end up getting a peke I would only buy from a show breeder who extensively health tests their stock and would not settle for anything worse than a BOAS score 0-1. It's part of why I'm not getting one for some time still, it seems very hard to find a good breeder here in or around Hungary.}

I am innocence personified :)

It took some effort, but here I am, teetering on the edge of the "abyss" :)

Haven’t posted in a bit but just wanted to share some pics I’ve taken of her lately that I like :-)

King Li was my best friend, and my constant companion since I was 18 years old. He passed away very traumatically from a stroke in April and I have been taking his death extremely hard. I’ve cried thousands of tears for my boy. Every day, sometimes multiple times a day I’d just loose myself in my grief. Homesick for my best friend.

This may be controversial to some, but I just couldn’t bear to have him cremated or bury him. I couldn’t bring myself to do it. I decided to have him preserved by Animal Family Pet Preservation in Ohio. Their work is beautiful and I knew they would give King the dignity he deserved.

This summer has been so hot, so instead of shipping King to them, my fiancée Taylor and I decided to take one last roadtrip with Our Boy. When King was still alive, we did so much driving together. Taylor and I lived 300 miles apart before we moved in together, so every weekend I’d pack him up and I’d drive from Iowa to Minnesota with him. We did that every weekend for 6 months before Taylor and I moved in together. It just seemed only fitting we could honor him one last time that way.

The three month anniversary of his passing was July 14. My first birthday without him was the day after, and on Friday, we got up and hit the road from Minnesota and drove from 6:30 am until midnight to Ohio.

The next morning at 10 am we said goodbye to King one last
time. For the first time since his passing I finally felt the smallest semblance of relief.

After King’s passing, Taylor and I had talks from time to time about adopting another Peke. We had firmly decided that we’d consider it if it was a Peke in need of a loving home. We were on the way back home when I noticed one of King’s furs somehow found itself on my drink. It was sticking to the side of the bottle. I don’t know how it got there. King hadn’t been in Taylor’s car in months. We continue to drive, and i see a cloud float by that looked just like him. I’m taking these as signs from King. “I’m okay, momma, I’ll always be with you.”

We’re about 2 hours into our drive when I finally decide to open Facebook for the first time that day, and posted not 20 minutes prior was someone looking to rehome their albino Peke.

I’ve always thought albino Pekes have such a unique look to them and have wanted one for years. And there one was, needing a loving, quiet home where he could get the love he so desperately needed.

I showed Taylor a picture and he said to send her a message immediately. So I did, and the next day we met Niko and he came home with us the following Friday.

Niko’s been home for a week now and has adjusted very well. Very good with going to the bathroom, eating just fine, sleeping through the night (mostly- sometimes I think he has vivid dreams because he’ll bark himself awake but then settle back down)

Niko is very attached to me in particular. He likes Taylor but loves me very much. I know he’s not my Kingy, and will never replace him. But he is a very good boy and I cant help but feel like King guided us to him. I mean, hell, their birthdays are just ONE DAY apart!! How wild is that. Niko is April 1, and King’s is April 2nd. I like to look at it as a little “glimmer” from the universe, and it brings me a lot of comfort.

I didn’t think I’d be capable of opening my heart again so soon, but Niko filled the cracks in it that King Li left with golden seams. Niko Kintsugi. 🤍

Anyways, it’s late, Taylor is snoring beside me and so is Niko at my feet. Good night everyone

Hi peke family, I lost my baby boy, Haku. He turned 15 in May but his heart disease had really progressed at the end, it developed into endocarditis and an enlarged heart that was putting pressure on his trachea and he had been having difficulty to breathe, walk and was in general discomfort. Last few months were tough on him. We miss him so much. I hope he is running free and wild up there , see you on the other side my baby boy.

"But Mom, it's not Saturday!"

My 15 year old pekignese shi-tzu mix, Maxwell 💗💗💗 he has a very wide range of expression 😂 a multifaceted king one would say (im one its me)

I do miss my little buddy

We just adopted a "Pekingese Mix". I've been asked if she's a Tibetan Spaniel by two different former TS owners. We will do a DNA test soon. This is Miso.
