About Dillan

This could be the start of something paw-some. Meet Dillan, a handsome tricolored Pekingese with beautiful medium-length fur. Just one year old and weighing around 11 pounds, Dillan has a bright, loving personality and is searching for a family that can provide him with a soft lap, endless belly rubs, and plenty of affection. Born on December 21, Dillan falls under the Capricorn sun sign, a zodiac known for loyalty and charm—traits that fit him perfectly! Dillan is energetic and playful and enjoys spending time with toys, comfy beds, and other dogs, though he may get a bit bossy with male pups. He would thrive in a home with a non-alpha canine companion and would prefer a home without small children. A securely fenced yard is important for him to romp and play safely. He is working on house training, does well during grooming, and is happiest when he’s with his people or canine friends. Dillan is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, receives monthly heartworm prevention, and uses natural flea protection. He is currently being cared for by Peke A Tzu Rescue, where he’s waiting for the perfect family to make him part of their lives. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
