LUCY & Maribel: Back in August of 2015 I was at a friends house and we decided to look up Chinese Cresteds on the internet. They have always caught my eye for some reason so I decided to check them out, I had to put my Jack Russell (Ripley) down in March of 2015 and wasn't really looking to get a dog at that time , My heart was still broke and didn't know if I wanted to set myself up for another heart break. I decided to check them out anyways and see what they say about the breed. We read a few articles about Chinese crested and decided to check out a few rescue sites. I found Naked K9's website and proceeded to check out their available dogs. It was then that I fell in love with Lucy. The minute I saw her picture I knew she was ment to be with me. It was love at first sight. I proceeded to check out the rest of the dogs but my heart kept going back to Lucy. I couldn't get her out of my mind. I didn't sleep that night because I couldn't quit thinking about her. The next day is when I decide that I had to try to adopt her. I filled the application out and went through the process of adopting her. I felt like I won a million bucks when they notified me that she was mine. My eyes filled with tears and my heart with love. Little did I know the only way to heal my broken heart was to give it something to love again. Lucy did that for me. She was being fostered in Alabama so I asked my sister if she was up for a road trip and lucky for me she was. We picked Lucy up at the end of August and brought her back to Michigan. She was a complete angel the whole way back. I got her home and it has felt like she was ment to be here the whole time. She adjusted very well and my journey with Chinese crested's began. I was amazed at how soft and loving she was. She just jumped in my lap and layed her head on my chest and I could just feel my heart melting. I was hooked. A month went by and everything was going well but I could tell that Lucy was lonely when I left her alone so I decided to check into maybe getting her a buddy. That's when I came across Maribel. I went back to Naked K9's website because I was impressed with how they handled Lucy's adoption and I trusted them, it was there that I saw Maribel's picture. Maribel wasn't even officially on their website yet. There was just her picture saying " coming soon " again it was love at first sight so I inquired about her. They thought that she would be a great match so I went throught the process of adopting her. Maribel was being fosterd in Texas but Naked K9 was gracious enough to get her to Indiana for me. Maribel was a little more cautious at first not as trusting as Lucy was but everyday she trusted me a little bit more and by the end of the week ypu could tell that she new she was home. Lucy and Maribel have gotten along from the beginning. It's almost like they were sisters. They are either sitting on each other or laying next to each other. They are perfect for each other and for me. Maribel has come so far from what her Foster mom Becky told me about her. She makes me play with her every day and is constantly by my side. Lucy and Maribel are the most loving dogs that I have ever had and from what I understand most Chinese Crested's are the same way. Im hooked on my hairless babies and the three of us are so thankful to Naked K9 and the people that foster their dogs. Lucy and I would like to say a special thank you to her foster mom Renee for giving Lucy a safe home until I could find her. We are forever grateful to you. Maribel and I would like to thank her foster mom Becky for also giving Maribel a safe and loving home. We are forever grateful to you. I don't even want to think what would have happened to these guys had you two women not been there to give them a home. Becky and Renee and all the people that work at Naked K9 are truly angels that walk on earth and the earth is a much better place because of you guys. THANK YOU SO VERY VERY MUCH for all that you do.
