Story
KC is a 1-year-old black pug. She previously belonged to my brother and his girlfriend, but when they moved, they were unable to take her with them. I offered to provide her with a temporary loving home while she finds her forever family. KC is a sweet, energetic, and affectionate little girl with a big personality. She loves staying active, enjoys sunbathing in the mornings, and prefers short strolls in the afternoon. She gets along great with other dogs. I’m unsure how she does with cats, as I have not seen her interact with them. She previously lived in a home with children. KC has never shown any signs of aggression and is a very gentle, easygoing dog. We are currently working on potty training, and she has learned to use a wee-wee pad in case of accidents. She is up to date on her vaccinations and is scheduled to be spayed on 2/24. An adoption fee is being requested to ensure KC goes to a serious, responsible home. My goal is to find her the perfect forever family.

Story
I first got Loki when he was a couple months old, Loki is now 2 years old. He is a very energetic pug that deserves and needs time and dedication to train him more. Someone to give him the freedom and lifestyle he deserves. He spends most of his time in his crate but i’m sure he would love to have fun with a family who has time for him. He is currently an apartment pug with restricted space to let out his energy. I have a very busy life taking care of a disabled sibling and this leaves little to no time with Loki. Loki is very friendly and loves meeting new people and is always curious. He is somewhat house trained but needs more attention in that area. I truly believe Loki has a good heart and is a good loving dog that just deserves more from their owner that I sadly don’t have the time for. Upon adopting Loki you will receive all his belongings.

Story
Say hello to Chip, the sweetest, squishiest little pug with a big heart and even bigger personality! This charming boy is a cuddle connoisseur who loves lounging on soft couches, snuggling up with his favorite plush toy, and flashing that irresistible pug smile that melts hearts in seconds. Chip may be small, but his love is larger than life. He’s happiest when he’s close to his people, whether that means napping by your side, showing off his funny stretches, or making you laugh with his goofy antics. He’s got a playful side too, his beloved stuffed toy rarely leaves his paw! Chip is the perfect mix of mellow and mischievous, he’s already mastered the art of relaxation but is always ready for a little fun and attention. He’s looking for a loving home where he can be spoiled, adored, and treated like the little king he is. If you’re searching for a loyal, lovable companion who’ll fill your days with joy and cuddles, Chip is your guy! 💛

Little Debbie is an affectionate pug. She is young and has a lot of energy and would like to jump on your lap to give you kisses. When you are watching TV or working at your desk, she will lie next to your feet. It will be easy to train her since she looks at you intently when you speak to her.

Story
Mochi is a sweet purebred English Bulldog, she is AKC registered and she will be turning 4 years old on March 8th 2026. She has been a good family dog, but unfortunately our situation is changing and our family is moving out of state and we are unable to bring her with us. Above all else we are looking for a good home for Mochi where she will be loved and comfortable. Here are a couple quick facts about her, she is housetrained, she is not fixed, she has never had any issues with her tail as many English Bulldogs do and she is on the petite side for a female English Bulldog. She suffers from some allergies as many English Bulldogs do, she is allergic to some ingredient in Purina food (she breaks out in hot spots and sores). I have been feeding her Blue Buffalo consistently without issue. She has lots of energy and loves to run around the yard with our kids and go on walks.
