Available for Adoption

Not sure you are ready for a long term committment?
Consider fostering. MACSPRO will pay for food and any medical expenses all you have to provide is shelter and love.

Still not sure?
Why not spend some time on the weekends walking and just talking with our dogs that are in a kennel. A little love goes a long way.

For more information call Joyce at 301-881-1221 or Pam at 703-961-9349.

Take a look below and you'll see the pictures and write-ups for some truly loving and amazing dogs. Until they have their forever homes they are in need of loving foster care. Generally speaking, Shar-Pei do not do well in kennels. If you can find the room in your heart and in your home, MACSPRO will cover all costs. Please, if you are not ready to make a committment to adopt a dog for a lifetime, won't you please take one in for a short time? You'll make us and some wonderful dogs very happy.

I am a young female, probably just one year old. I am very shy but it only takes me a few minutes for me to warm up to someone. I have had a hard time in my short life and now I want to be the only companion in your life. No dogs, cats or kids - just me to get and give lots of love. I am spayed, up to date on my shots, have had eye surgery and am heartworm negative. I am ready to go to me forever home. Please consider me.

I come from West Virginia and you can tell as a have a slight "southern accent" when I bark. I am young, friendly, up to date on my health work and just sitting here waiting for someone to come and play with me. If you have any cookies and a toy to play with, I'm your guy.

Hi, my name is Beckham. Yep I love to play. I am housetrained and only just 1 year old. I love people and would love for someone to adopt me so I can grow up in a home instead of a kennel.

It's just not fair! My owners had to go to take care of elder parents and couldn't take me. Now just because I'm not some young whipper snapper no one thinks I can get adopted into a new forever home. The MACSPRO folks said that at least two adopted peibies are over 15 years old! The MACSPRO folks are happy to tell you all about adopting a mature fella like me. I have a nice brush coat, although I have a bit of a grass allergy which is taken care of with some prednisone. I'm a nice chocolate color with a beautiful meat mouth. I'm in good health and very active. How about giving me a chance? How can you say no to this face?

Hi, I am Homer. I am a Shar Pei mix (probably a hound of some sort – does that make me a Shound? ) but I am the sweetest guy on the face of the planet. I love everyone, dogs included. I was a stray but someone has kept good care of me. I really would love to have a new family and get settled down and stay a while. I am worth coming to visit and get to know. I’ve had all my shots and am all ready to go.

MacKenzieMacKenzie
My new name is MacKenzie. I just joined MACSPRO recently. Everyone is really nice but I sure hope I find a new home soon. I not sure how old I am - maybe 4? I am a male chocolate Shar Pei and was a stray so they don’t know much about me. I, unfortunately can’t tell them much either. I am in the process of getting my entropion surgery, neutered and getting all my shots up to date. I am very nice and friendly and like people and other dogs. They asked me about whether I liked cats but I am not sure what that is so we’ll have to find out on that. My picture isn’t a great one – MACSPRO is scheduling me for a spa treatment – you know bath, pedicure, facial etc. You will see an after picture soon. I will look like I should – beautiful!

Private Adoptions

There are no Private Adoptions at this time.






Click here to see our peis available for adoption at 1-800-Save-A-Pet.



Note:
In the original books written about Shar-Pei, it was usually stated that their life span was 6 to 8 years. This is totally untrue today. What might have existed in China 25 years ago does not hold true today. With better nutrition, better medical care and better treatment by owners, these dogs now are capable of living 12 to 16 years. A dog 4 years of age still acts and usually has the health of a puppy.

We have lost dogs at 6 days of age, 9 months of age and up to 16 years of age.

Please if you are looking for a good companion, consider our "older dogs". We can state that they are in good health, heartworm negitive and up to date on all shots.



If you are interested in one of our Shar-Pei, please contact us:

Joyce Hanes @ (301) 881-1221
Pam Robbins @ (703) 961-9349
or
e-mail us at peirescue@macspro.org

Please! When you send us e-mail, please be specific in your note and include:
Your name
Phone number
Where you can be reached
The area in which you live

It will help me to eliminate responding to numerous email that do not give me enough information so I can help. Also, be sure to check out our Other Shar-Pei Rescue Groups page if you live in an area outside the Washington D.C.- Metropolitan area and are looking for a dog. There are many rescues across the US that are near your home and can also help you find the right pet.

Please note that the people at MACSPRO are volunteers that also have very busy full-time jobs. We try to answer all e-mails, phone calls, and other requests as quickly as possible, but if we overlook responding to a request, please do not hesitate to contact us again.
