Hi, I`m Chili! I am a middle-aged puggle mix (maybe 8 years old?). I am about 23 lbs, so I am a little guy.
I spent my life living outdoors in a kennel with other small dogs. I should be adopted to a home with another dog, ideally a confident and friendly dog, so that I can continue to gain confidence. I live with other dogs from 20 lbs to 100 lbs and do well with all.
I am a happy boy and wag my tail and bounce around, but I am lower energy in general. I will be content to lay on a dog bed or couch most of the day. I am still learning that people aren`t so scary, so I need a patient adopter who will keep working with me and give me time and space to come out of my shell.
I haven`t met any kids but kids would need to understand that I won`t want to cuddle- I will probably run and hide if there is too much action or someone approaches too quickly. I do just fine with cats. I currently need a fenced yard as I am working on leash walking, but will easily go in and out of the house to get to the fenced yard. I am not destructive when left home outside of a crate unsupervised, but I have traveled in the car in a crate. If you are looking for a chill buddy to work with and help build confidence, that`s me! Hope to find my forever home soon!

More about this rescue
PAWS (Powell Animal Welfare Society) is a 501(c)(3), all-volunteer, foster-based dog rescue serving the Columbus, Ohio area. Our volunteer rescue, provides veterinary care and finds loving homes for stray, neglected, and/or abused dogs from overpopulated shelters in Ohio and neighboring states.
PAWS strives to eliminate the needless euthanasia of homeless animals, one dog, one adopter at a time. We are in need of more loving foster homes for homeless dogs. PAWS can only save a dog if we have a foster home to care for it since we have NO kennel. Each foster home provides shelter and care, while PAWS provides food, veterinary care (including spay/neuter) and all necessary supplies such as crates, bowls, leashes, collars, etc.
