Story
Dylan is a one-year-old-pup with an adorable underbite and an even sweeter personality. Friendly, energetic, and always ready to play, he loves chasing a ball and making new friends. We think he is a Chihuahua × Pug × Terrier mix. This charming little guy is also quite the gentleman—he squats to pee instead of lifting his leg, so his future family won’t have to worry about him leaving the toilet seat up. If you’re looking for a fun-loving companion with plenty of personality packed into a small package, Dylan is ready to meet you.

Story
This 15 year old gem was rescued from the shelter as her family could no longer care for her. She was in remarkably good shape for her age. Her body did not show the typical signs of long term neglect. Her eyes are clear and bright and free of scarring. She does not even have the dry eye that so many get. It appears she had a pedicure recently. Nora's ears were clean and free of infection. Nora did fabulous for her dental and only had a handful of teeth pulled. It appeared she had a dental prior to rescue.Nora was clearly loved. True to her pug nature she is friendly, loyal and has bonded with the foster family. The highlight of her day is spending time in the sun. There are three blind pugs in her foster home which at times she finds annoying. She likes to be the fun police when they get too close or are too active. In light of her advanced age Nora is looking for a pug fam who will understand that the rest of her days should be filled with kindness and lots of really good treats! IF you are looking for a diamond in the rough the Nora is your gal!Fill out an adoption application directly on our website at www.lionelslegacy.org
