Twista

Meet Twista, with the most perfect wrinkles, a smooshy face, and a heart as soft as his folds. He's a wonderful medium size and truly an any-Shar Pei lover's dream companion. Twista arrived as an unclaimed stray with a painful ear infection and in need of entropion surgery, but through it all he has been an absolute gentleman. He's been a patient, cooperative good boy while the medical team gets him feeling his best, and his calm, trusting nature has won over everyone who meets him. His ear infection has since been treated and his entropion surgery completed. This sweet guy is kennel trained, potty trained, and walks well on a leash. He's quiet in his kennel, keeps his space clean, and is wonderfully well mannered. Low energy and easygoing, Twista prefers lounging in the sunshine, soaking up cuddles, and enjoying peaceful companionship over rowdy playtime. He enjoys the company of other dogs and does well with them, but he's more about relaxing side by side than roughhousing. Food motivated and affectionate, Twista loves people and thrives on gentle attention. He's the kind of dog who fits effortlessly into a home and makes life feel calmer and cozier just by being there. Twista is ready for the good life for once and for all - a loving home where his wrinkles are admired, his naps are uninterrupted, and his sweet soul is cherished forever. Twista was rescued from a shelter in New Mexico.Meet and greets are by appointment only. An approved application is required to schedule a meeting.

Adoption fees help cover the medical care of the animals while he or she waits for a new home, as well as food and transportation costs. These fees help to provide care for the other animals in the shelter or rescue group who may have medical bills that are much higher than any possible adoption fee. The money also acts as a donation to help support the organization as a whole, allowing the group to continue its efforts to rescue and rehome pets. The dogs in our care are fostered in Colorado, Texas, and New Mexico. While all dogs are picked up during our scheduled times, sometimes transport dates change due to unforeseen circumstances.
