My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Wilma — lovingly known as “Pugcakes” 💕

Wilma didn’t come to us with a collar, a microchip, or a clue as to where she belonged. She was found quietly walking down the middle of the road, as if she was simply hoping someone would notice her. And someone did. Her finders searched everywhere — community pages, door-to-door, flyers, shelter listings — but no one ever came for her.

What they did find was something very special.

Wilma is a senior pug, estimated to be around 11 years old, with the softest soul and the gentlest presence. She appears to be deaf and may have a cataract in one eye, but none of that dims her ability to love deeply. She has a slight limp, likely from arthritis or long-overgrown nails, and she’ll need a good nail trim — but otherwise, she’s in overall good health.

This sweet girl is potty trained (even doggy-door trained!), crate trained, calm in the car, relaxed on leash, and able to manage stairs. She is affectionate without being demanding, social without being overwhelming. Wilma seeks closeness — she’ll curl up beside you on the floor, snooze happily nearby, or settle into a cozy spot on the couch or bed. We believe she may have had a senior owner before, because she clearly finds comfort in simply being near her person.

Wilma is wonderful with kids, patient and gentle, and she coexists beautifully with dogs and cats alike. She shows no signs of resource guarding, reactivity, or separation anxiety. She’s easy, kind, and steady — the kind of dog who quietly makes a house feel like home. While she sleeps a lot (as good seniors should), she still lights up when it’s time to eat, reminding us that joy doesn’t fade with age.

Wilma deserves a soft place to land, a calm home, and someone who will cherish her golden years the way she so clearly cherishes her people. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will love you quietly, deeply, and wholeheartedly — Wilma is waiting.
