WELCOME TO ‘DISNEYLAND’!

Kimi Peck’s version of Disneyland, at least…Anaheim has Mickey Mouse…Kimi Peck’s Chihuahua Rescue in Burbank has lots of mice…Unfortunately, that’s the only thing we could think of that the two may actually have in common.

Look at more of the very adoptable Chihuahuas that Ms. Peck refused to adopt out.  Like the other 350+ dogs she was, in many people’s opinions, hoarding, they had to live in filty dirty rodent infested deplorable conditions until Ms. Peck was forced to shut down her Burbank ‘Sanctuary’.  Is Ms. Peck’s Tehachapi ‘Sanctuary’ any better?  Is she opening her doors to the public?

Does she have regular business hours where people can come visit with her animals and see her ‘Sanctuary’?  If Ms. Peck has nothing to hide, she should open the doors and let people see for themselves.  Ms. Peck actually believes and wants you to believe that the dogs living in her filty dirty cages were loved and well cared for..

Why is Ms. Peck still even in business with all of her charges and convictions in Burbank?  The answer is Burbank just wanted her out of their city and they forced her, by court order, to close.  The problem is, people like Ms. Peck, with all of her charges and convictions, run to places like Kern County because Kern County does not have strict rules and regulations regarding animal welfare.  Kern County seems to encourage people like Ms.
Peck to move into their community.  Very sad for the animals.  By the way, Ms. Peck is on Los Angeles’ shelters DNA (Do Not Adopt) List.  Los Angeles Shelters will not adopt out any animals to Ms. Peck or anybody affiliated with Chihuahua Rescue.

THESE THREE DOGS DID NOT HAVE HAPPY ENDINGS. THEY HAD VERY DISTURBING AND SAD ENDINGS. The first picture is of a beautiful JAPANESE CHIN named HALLIE. CHIN RESCUE wanted to foster Hallie in a loving and warm home, provide proper vet care and find her a wonderful family to adopt her.

Unfortunately, Kimi Peck refused them the dog. She even went so far as to refuse any prospects for adoptions period claiming Chin Rescue would try and take her. Hallie spent her days and nights in a cage in a kennel with many viruses floating around. Hallie died in her cage from pneumonia. WILLY, the middle cutie, was found in the dessert. He had some health issues and Kimi Peck claimed she was treating them (with no records). For this reason, Kimi felt the best place for Willie was in her kennel living in a cage opposed to a loving and caring family. Willie caught the ‘kennel cough’ virus floating around the kennel and well, never seemed to recover. Willie also died. The third handsome boy, BEATLE, was just 4-6 months old when Kimi got him.

Beatle suffered from bad demo mange. Nobody ever saw Kimi Peck treat the dog and there were no records to prove either way. Beatle, too, lived his puppy days in a cage at Chihuahua Rescue and Sanctuary in Burbank. A few people wanted to adopt him including a wonderful couple from San Diego.

They even drove numerous times to the kennel to see him. Kimi Peck refused to return their phone calls and decided the best place for Beatle was with her. Beatle died as a puppy.

MADONNA’S FORMER CHIHUAHUAS, CHIQUITA AND EVITA, are being held by Patricia Wingfield, Vice President of Chihuahua Rescue and Sanctuary in 2005, in their permanent home. Patricia Wingfield is also one of Chihuahua Rescue’s money enablers. We X-ed out her face.

Chiquita and Evita were adopted out to a loving and wonderful person. This person wanted to originally adopt all three Chihuahuas, including Rosita, and give them all a warm and loving home to spend the rest of their lives. However, Kimi Peck was not ready to adopt out the dogs for a good six months. Apparently, for the 6 months the three Chihuahuas lived with Kimi Peck at her Burbank ‘Sanctuary’, they lived in a pen right next to the front door, where there was a cold draft. ROSITA DIED. Former volunteers also claimed that poor Rosita had no teeth and instead of giving her soft food or even soft kibble, Kimi insisted on her eating hard kibble (another reason why she remained grossly thin and her resistance very low).

According to former volunteers and an apparent autopsy report, Rosita died from pneumonia. Unfortunately, Rosita was not alone. There had been numerous outbreaks at the Chihuahua Rescue and Sanctuary in Burbank, where many dogs died from the parvo virus, distemper, kennel cough going untreated, pneumonia, etc. Also according to many former volunteers and even former veterinarians, many of these viruses could have been avoided if the dogs were properly vaccinated.

This poor sweet puppy was found under Kimi Peck’s desk in this filthy dirty crate with NO FOOD AND NO WATER. Where was Kimi Peck when this picture was taken? THE MOVIES.

Thank goodness a volunteer saw this poor dog and not only cleaned the crate but also provided food and water. When Kimi Peck was questioned about this dog, she did what she does best AND WHAT SHE ALWAYS DOES, BLAMES SOMEBODY ELSE. Who did she blame this time? Sam, the kennel manager. She said that Sam must have forgotten to clean the cage because he was ‘distraught’ over a dog that ‘accidentally’ died a horrific death in the clothes dryer that is located in the laundry room in DISNEYLAND. Sam, who enjoys his ‘music and Howard Stern’ especially while hosing down the pavement and doing his laundry, and this particular laundry time was no exception, had headsets on and was not able to hear the dog who jumped into the dryer and well, was probably barking and crying to get out…Yet another careless and horrific death for a dog to have to suffer while living AND THEN DYING at Chihuahua Rescue and Sanctuary.

This is a picture of one of the many ‘Sanctuaries’ Kimi Peck has rented over the years. This trailer sits on the Edmondson’s property in Los Angeles County. Kimi Peck and her boyfriend, DAVE MABRA, rented this trailer and some land back in March of 2002. The Edmondsons, who were Kimi Peck’s former landlords, are superb rescuers who have owned and operated the same kennel/rescue for over 30 years. In addition, they have always received A’s on their inspections (YES, KIMI PECK, IT IS POSSIBLE). Karin Edmondson wrote a four (4) page heartfelt letter in regards to the deplorable conditions Kimi Peck had her animals living in. Kimi Peck was only allowed 40 animals. She had OVER 150. Again, the animals were living in filthy, deplorable conditions. Many of them were living in crammed cages in this trailer, hidden so Karin would not be able to see them. When she did, she asked Kimi Peck to leave. The last paragraph in Karin Edmondson’s letter reads as follows: “From what I have witnessed in regards to Ms. Peck, I feel that she is a HOARDER. There is more to rescue than saving a life. There has to be quality of life and the hope of a new home.” This full letter is available to read on this site.

[ LETTER FROM LANDLORD (PDF) ]

“I FEEL IT IS MY DUTY TO WRITE THIS LETTER. I BELIEVE I MUST TRY TO REVEAL A WOMAN WHO IS HOLDING 250 CHIHUAHUAS IN FILTHY, DISEASE PROMINENT, AND DESPICABLE CONDITIONS…” Robert M. Collett, D.V.M, a former Veterinarian to Kimi Peck states in a letter he wrote to describe his experience with his former ‘rescue’ client. Yet another professional who has come forward to try and help the dogs. The above picture is a picture of a dog-named Autumn.

A story is available to read in the gallery section. Take a good look at this cage…Dr. Collett was Kimi Peck’s vet a few years ago. This picture was taken in April of this year (2005). He described Autumn’s cage, and many other dogs living under Kimi Peck’s care, perfectly…disease prominent and despicable conditions. Kimi Peck has a HISTORY of not keeping her animals content, disease free and, well, SANITARY. AS WITH EVERY OTHER PICTURE ON THIS WEBSITE, THIS PICTURE WAS NOT AND HAS NOT BEEN ALTERED IN ANY WAY.

Autumn did not arrive to Chihuahua Rescue pregnant. OTHER DOGS ALSO, BESIDES AUTUMN, BECAME PREGNANT BECAUSE KIMI PECK DID NOT FIX THEM AND SHE WAS AND REMAINS, NEGLIGENT.

Tiffany and Gaylord are two dogs Kimi Peck claims she grabbed right before they were going to be euthanized. She also claims she was/is rehabilitating both of them (we would like to see the records to prove this??? Oh, sorry, we forgot, Kimi Peck got convicted for not keeping records). TIFFANY, the beauty tied to the table, was named after the famous landmark in New York.

Here, she spent her days and nights tied to this table until Burbank Animal Control finally questioned Kimi about this (we guess they were tired of stepping over her during the inspections). Though housebroken (and this is known because the few times she did get out, she actually did her business outside), she unfortunately had to call the newspapers her ‘toilet’. Her ‘after’ picture is available in the ‘Gallery’ section. Her new home was/is an enclosed, how can we say this nicely, cage. Yes, her ‘portable toilet’ was transferred. GAYLORD, the poodle, as you can see in this picture, is well, loving life and extremely happy he was rescued by Kimi Peck ‘just in the knick of time’. Why, you ask? He’s living life in the ‘Sanctuary’ part of Chihuahua Rescue. His ‘cage’ is considered a Penthouse Suite with such amenities as daily food and water, daily changing of his ‘toilet’, turn down service (oh, wait, he doesn’t have a bed…sorry, Gaylord…)…Oh, I know this picture does not exactly confirm the food and water and toilet part…maybe that’s because, well, this picture was taken at night…his ‘maid’ service is done about 1PM. Anyway, like every other picture on this site…THESE PICTURES ‘SPEAK’ A THOUSAND WORDS…

Another picture of the Saluki. This time, after much criticizing, Kimi moved the Saluki out of the cage and into a run. You get a better picture of the neglect (nails, skin, etc.) of this Saluki. Too bad you can’t get a good smell. Better yet, it’s best that you don’t. According to one of Kimi Peck’s past landlords, Karin Edmondson, this Saluki, along with many other dogs, was also neglected while Kimi Peck was renting the trailer on Karin’s property.

Three’s company in this cage located in the ‘Sanctuary’. Yes, according to Kimi Peck and her supporters, these three cute doggies are lucky. As a matter of Kimi Peck’s facts, all doggies are lucky to end up with her. Why? Just look at these three cute doggies. I think this picture speaks for itself. This also confirms why Kimi Peck calls her kennel a ‘Sanctuary’. One can now see why Kimi Peck and Megan Dodson are working so hard to discredit everybody who even tries to say anything negative about Kimi Peck and expose the truth.

Filthy dirty crates, many stacked on top of one another, food and water bowls filled with urine and feces. The dogs themselves become filthy dirty living in Peck’s Sanctuary. Wet doggie blankets in cold weather (no heat!) Dogs that never get out of these filthy dirty cages, not even for a short walk. NO RECORDS. Sick dogs that are never seen by a vet. Sick dogs that are treated by Peck’s ‘own remedies’ including leftover bacon from one of Peck’s BLT sandwiches to eliminate seizures and vinegar for mange. Peck taking in many more dogs than she can handle. SUPPORTERS WHO WILL SUPPORT PECK FINANCIALLY BUT WOULD NEVER, IN A MILLION YEARS, ALLOW PECK TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR OWN PERSONAL DOGS (AND HAVE MADE THIS CLEAR)! Dogs that die a long painful death in Peck’s ‘Sanctuary’ and then are immediately ‘taken out’ and buried in some remote location. Dogs that become pregnant because Kimi Peck did not alter them. KIMI PECK BUYING MANY PUPPIES FROM DIFFERENT BACKYARD BREEDERS AND CLAIMING SHE’S DOING THIS TO STOP THE BACKYARD BREEDERS FROM SELLING MORE DOGS???? Kimi Peck stealing dogs from unsuspecting people, ON THEIR PROPERTIES and then refusing to give them their dogs back…then, taking these dogs and sticking them in cages in her ‘sanctuary’ claiming they are now ‘SAFE’!!! HOW MANY MORE CHIHUAHUAS AND OTHER ANIMALS NEED TO BE SUBJECT TO PECK’S INSANE REALITY OF A SANCTUARY AND A RESCUE?!?!?
