Story
Tater (fawn) and Tot (black) are the sweetest, most affectionate gents on the block. This bonded pair of pug rolls and opposing curling tails, stalk their foster mom dawn to dusk, including keeping a beady eye on her in the shower, lest she drown. Their hobbies include waiting for treats, meals, feigning starvation (they are pugs), napping on the couch and bed with their humans (preferably sharing a pillow), and cleaning each others’ face twice a day like cats. They like to do everything together including potty. They are crate trained and use a dog door with ease. They enjoy observing their foster mom weed the garden then collapse on the piles of weeds (helpful in wind). Tot excels at singing when he’s happy, and both his little back legs do bicycle circles when his back is scratched. Tot is a ‘back sleeper’, there’s nothing cuter than four bent legs in the air attached to a somnolent pug. These laid-back gentlemen are potty trained, and looking for a quiet home with comfortable couch and a human bed. They need abundant love, low calorie treats, toys, and humans around to shadow each day. They currently live harmoniously with three dogs, two cats, two small humans, and adore everyone but prefer female humans over males. They are perfect, low maintenance, beautiful examples of this sociable and loving lap dog breed.
Adoption Information:
Tater & Tot (bonded pair!) are 8-year-old Pugs rescued from a high-kill shelter. These dogs are current on vaccinations, microchipped, 4DX/heartworm tested, and neutered. They are also tested with other dogs, cats, children, kennel-trained, and housebroken. Tater and Tot do not attend our weekly Saturday adoption events and are available by private adoption appointment. They are currently in foster care in Fort Collins, Colorado. Their adoption fee is $500. We would love for you to meet these dogs and see if they might be a good fit for your home.
The first step to adoption is completing an adoption application on our website at www.bounceanimalrescue.org. Pending approval, your application is valid for 1 year, and you will be eligible to request a hold on an individual animal for the Saturday adoption event. The hold does not require that you take the animal home, but ensures you get to meet and make an adoption decision prior to other applicants. Also pending approval, you will be able to acquire foster home contact information, so you inquire on personalities of specific animals.
We do offer midweek private adoption appointments for approved applicants pending staff, foster home, and vetting schedules. Because we are 100% foster-based, private adoption appointments are only offered for individual animals. (If interested in viewing multiple animals at one time, we encourage you to attend our adoption events!)
Please note, we do not have the ability to process adoption applications at our adoption events, so please plan accordingly. If an application is submitted past 5pm on Monday-Thursday, it will begin review the following day. If submitted on Friday-Sunday, it will begin review on Monday. It takes approximately 1-2 business days for an application to be processed.
Our adoption events take place every Saturday from 10am-Noon at Pet Supplies Plus (Front Range Village, 2912 Council Tree Ave #100, Fort Collins, 80525). *We will not be hosting an adoption event on Saturday, September 30. We are offering private adoption appointments for individual animals September 25-October 1.*
For additional questions regarding meeting this dog please contact us via text/email at 970.699.6772, or contact@bounceanimalrescue.org. We apologize for any inconvenience, but due to a high volume of inquiries, calls and voicemails regarding adoption will not be returned.
