Lotus

My story

Lotus where do we start with her story. Unfortunately, we can't start from the beginning as she was found as a stray with puppies. Her puppies have moved on to their forever homes but mom was quickly put on a euthanasia list at the shelter as soon as her puppies were weaned.  Like most shelters they are over crowded and unable to treat a dog with skin issues like hers. We realize Lotus isn't all shar pei but we were the only option for this girl and she is so sweet and like so many deserves a chance for a happy ending. After doing a bit of google searching it quickly became apparent why the shelter choose Lotus as her name. In many cultures its a symbol for sacred purity, rebirth and strength. We are excited to see this Lotus rise up. She is great with other dogs and would love a home with another playful dog. She isn't particular if her friend is big or small, male or female...she loves them all. We are always asked how our dogs are with kids and this girl LOVES kids and kids seem to love her.  This girl is incredibly sweet and so resilient with everything she has been through.  She did come to us with some serious hair loss. Most likely due to having puppies in a shelter situation. She is currently on Pro plan sensitive skin and has had a cytopoint injection. She does amazing in the bath tub which has been a blessing as we get her hair loss resolved. Her bloodwork is perfect. She has had zero issues with her ears and has had entropion surgery. She does have the cutest 1 brown eye and 1 blue eye.May 31, 2025, 1:56 pm
