The police were shocked by the foreign object found on the dog’s forehead.
Peanut Butter and Jelly gained attention after being found on the street and taken to the Sonoma County Animal Shelter in California. Upon arrival at the shelter, staff noticed something shiny on the forehead. When shelter staff approached the dogs, they were shocked and confused to discover they had ornaments attached to their foreheads. Many shelter members have been in the animal care business for a long time and have never seen anything like this.

Peanut Butter is a beagle/pug mix and Jelly is a female Chihuahua mix. They came to the shelter in 2015 and the veterinary team decided that the jewelry and glue needed to be removed. They wanted to make sure that the glue did not contain any harmful substances.
After removing the adhesive, it was confirmed that it was not harmful to the dog’s health. However, the peanut butter and jelly gave him secondary burns and a cut on his forehead.

Otherwise, the canine was fine and eager to find his forever parents and start a new life. Itgos was delighted when a wonderful family arrived and offered them a beautiful home. Their families loved and cared for them. Unfortunately, after the owner died, there was no one left to care for the puppies.

They were returned to Sonoma County Animal Services. Since Peanutbutter and Jelly are now seniors, they were taken to Muttville Senior Dog Rescue, a San Francisco-based organization that helps dogs age 7 and older find forever homes.
Their foster mother, Lisa Arden, took care of them. He hugged them and gave them all his love.
Although both dogs had big personalities, Arden said that Jelly was the boss of Peanut Butter. She liked telling him what to do.
A Forever Home
After spending three months in foster care without receiving any adoption applications, their foster mom made a TikTok video about the two canines. She introduced them to her followers, wishing to increase their pool of potential adopters.
The video went viral. The lovely pups and their magnetic personalities stole the hearts of many people online.
On October 26th in 2023, Arden shared great news on her Instagram. Peanut Butter and Jelly had a virtual meet and greet with their new dad. They had an amazing time.
Arden said that she was certain that the doggos found the best possible home. They can’t wait for the adoption to be finalized, and for them to ride into the sunset with their new dad.
We’re thrilled that the lovely pooches found their forever home, and we wish them many adventures with their new dad.
