Mugsy does great with people, he is content to hang out on the couch and snuggle with his human. Mugsy loves his walks and will wait by the gate for his foster Mom to take him out. Mugsy would prefer a home with a female dog, or a submissive male. He is a gem and will give you hours of entertainment with his antics!
------------------------------- History -----------------------------
Mugsy came to The Rescued Pup from the euthanasia list at a Southern California shelter. He was turned in by his owner because he bit them while they were breaking up a fight between Mugsy and a larger dog.
We've had Mugsy with us since the beginning of June and have only recently made him available for adoption because he was in training to overcome some behavioral issues he had developed.
Since coming to our rescue we've seen a real change in Mugsy. When he first arrived he wanted to be the alpha over every other dog, we helped him realize that isn't his place and he's doing great as a member of the pack. When we have our play dates, he will come over for pets and the puppies will be jumping all over him. He doesn't bite at them, he might just give a grumble. He is the epitome of a grumpy old man, is 4- 6 years old and a neutered male.
His adoption includes his neuter, shots, microchip, and training for Mugsy and his new family.
