Description: 
Peg is one of 16 Schipperkes from a commercial kennel retirements. She was born 10/22/98, which makes her 9 yrs. old. She does not look or act that old at all. She is very friendly . She is a tall gal, and she knows how to climb out of an exercise pen, which means she probably can climb over a 4' fence. Peg has been spayed and is ready for adoption. She us very social but is still afraid in some circumstances. SHe will need an owner who is used to dealing with puppy mill breeding dogs and the uncertainty they feel in new situations. She is a hoot to live with. She is extremely intelligent and would be a fun dog to teach tricks to. She understands housetraining and would only need help in keeping it up. Peg is in foster care in Central Michigan.
