Ideal Home / Adopter:Pugsley’s ideal home could be so many because he’s so adaptable. He’s good as an only dog but enjoys playing when another dog comes to visit. He would be happy living with a single person, couple, or family. He gets pretty excited around small children and needs reminders not to jump, but he loves running and playing with them too. He even gets along with cats—he mostly ignores them or tries to make gentle friends. He loves people and wants to be near his person—snuggled on the couch or warming your feet at night in bed. Because of his “loviness,” Pugsley wouldn’t do well being crated all day, but he’s perfectly happy to spend up to 4 hours in his crate. After that, he gets a little vocal.
Likes:Head rubs, treats of any kind, naps on your bed, walks, watching movies on the couch, car rides
Dislikes:His crate after 4 hours, being too far away from you
Pugsley is as close to perfection as you can get. He’s incredibly adaptable and fits into different situations and with different people. His interim foster family had dogs, and he was full of high energy—running and playing nonstop. His permanent foster (me) didn’t have any dogs, and I was worried he’d miss the excitement. Nope! He adjusted immediately to the calmer energy of our home and our three cats. He’s been happy exploring our fenced yard, gently trying to befriend the cats, and accepting their rejection with his easygoing, cheerful attitude. He likes walks but is also content with yard time. He loves helping with anything—reading, working, napping, or chores. He’s excellent in the car and even went camping with his foster family—and loved it! Pugsley is a sweet, loving boy who would be the perfect addition to anyone looking for a cute, smaller-sized dog who is adaptable, fun, and affectionate. And did I mention, CUTE?!
