Welcome
Peke N Chin Midwest is a small rescue group made up of volunteers, located throughout the Midwest area, dedicated
to the breeds of Pekingese and Japanese Chin.
Our purpose is to rescue and rehabilitate abused, abandoned, neglected and surrendered Pekingese and Japanese Chins.
These dogs are provided with the attention, care and medical treatment necessary including spaying/neutering, until a permanent home can be found.
Through the commitment of our volunteers, PNC also focuses on education of the public regarding puppy mills and responsible dog ownership, such as spaying/neutering, training and humane care of Pekingese and Japanese Chins.
Foster homes are truly the lifeblood of our organization. Our foster network of volunteers support and enjoy each other's company.
It is a fun and rewarding experience. Would you like to join us to help make a difference? Please fill out our Volunteer Application.
All PNC Midwest pups are altered when they join our family. This is very important as many have been breeders or are
rescued from shelters. We all must do our part in helping end the misery of the unwanted pets in society today.
Peke N Chin Midwest is a 501(c) 3 non-profit organization and we are led by our Constitution (as attached in Adobe Acrobat format).

Behind the Scenes - A Closer Look at the Puppy Mill Industry
The stench of garbage, urine and feces is unbearable. Ammonia hangs heavy in the air and flies are everywhere.
Dim lighting and the constant barking of dogs in distress create a sense of chaos.
Row upon row of stacked cages hold dogs matted with feces - some too sick to move. This is the world of a puppy mill dog.
While a growing number of people are aware of puppy mills, few understand the horrors of the industry.
Detailed reports from our experts offer a greater insight into the notorious puppy mill trade. Puppy Mill FAQ
Artist to the Rescue
One of the purposes of sharing my photographs is to support pet rescue. There are literally millions of perfectly healthy dogs and cats put down each year that people decide they don't want. Instead of a wonderful rescue dog (we have four), people unthinkingly promote the horrors of puppy mill production by getting a new puppy instead. Please visit Petfinder.com for wonderful vetted pets of any breed in any area.
Please visit my online photo album and contact me for purchase of any of my photos. I can send you hard copy or high resolution electronic files. For payment, all you have to do is make a donation to a registered pet rescue group (you even get a tax receipt!), and once I receive notice from them that you have donated, I will send out your pictures! Please ask the rescue organisation to send me notice of your donation. I would recommend any group listed on Petfinder, but we have a special relationship with Peke N Chin Midwest of Minnesota, Furry Friends of Brandon Manitoba, and New Beginnings in Minnestota.
Gracie, Finnegan and their buddies say, "thanks for thinking rescue".

Newsletters
Peke N Chin Midwest is proud to have published and released its first newsletter in 2008. We are very excited about our publications and hope you enjoy every issue.
Traer Scott travelled to Puerto Rico and Mexico to capture these remarkable and soulful photographs of dogs living alone or in packs on city streets. Since many street dogs were formerly pets, they are often friendly, approachable and eager to be adopted into new homes. As Scott documents in her introduction, she witnessed and assisted in the rescue of many of the dogs she photographed for this book; thanks to the collaborative efforts of Puerto Rican, Latin American and US organizations, these dogs have now been adopted into new homes both in the United States and Mexico. It features 90 irresistible, soulful portraits and outdoor photographs of street dogs. It is accompanied by a beautifully written, illustrated introduction by Traer Scott on her experience of photographing and rescuing street dogs. It includes a mini biography of many dogs featured, with details about their rescue and journey to a new home, and contact.
Street Dogs is available at all major bookstores, Amazon, and the ASPCA online store where more money goes to helping homeless animals. Fifty cents from each book purchase is donated to WSPA (World Society for the Protection of Animals).
