Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Abuelo Pablo is an 8-year-young gentleman with a heart of gold and the calm, affectionate presence only a seasoned pug can bring. Hes exceptionally well-trained, loves a predictable routine, and is happiest napping on a cozy bed close to his people. Like many senior pugs, Pablo comes with ongoing medical needs that require thoughtful monitoring. Recent bloodwork showed changes in his kidney values, so he was started on a prescription kidney diet to support long-term kidney health. Follow-up urine testing revealed urinary crystals, which can be common in older dogs, so Pablo is currently on a prescription urinary diet to help dissolve those crystals and prevent discomfort or blockage. Once the crystals are resolved, the plan is to transition him back to kidney-supportive nutrition, with continued lab monitoring to guide next steps. Pablo also has mild hind-end stiffness and moves at a slower, deliberate pace. After veterinary evaluation, no additional treatment is recommended beyond comfort, consistency, and letting Pablo set the speed. He remains comfortable and happy, showing no signs of pain. He is reliably housetrained, though on occasion a tiny senior poop nugget may sneak out unexpectedly. Were still determining whether this is mild fecal incontinence or simply a senior-pug quirk, and it has been very manageable in daily life. Despite these needs, Pablo feels good, enjoys his routine, loves being near his people, and takes everything in stride. Hes what we lovingly call a medical pug but really, just a well-cared-for senior who needs a little extra attention, good nutrition, and a solid vet partnership. If youre looking for a gentle, low-key companion who will happily share your couch and your heart, Abuelo Pablo is ready to settle in and enjoy his golden years.
