Pug Puggle

Male, 7 mos
Santa Monica, CA
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Jax and Juno are two little cuties that came to us when a rescuer we work with had someone contact her who needed to surrender these puppies. She asked if we could help with taking them into our foundation and we said yes! Jax and Juno are approx 7 month old siblings that are friendly, playful, and so loving! They are a pug mix, possibly a Chug or a Puggle. Ideally, we would love to see them get adopted together as they do so well with each other, but we would also separate them into homes that have another sweet and playful dog. Owners that are not gone long hours during the day and a home with a safe and secure yard would be ideal for these playful pups. These little angels deserve the best forever home out there and we won't stop till we find it! Jax and Juno are vaccinated, microchipped, and will be spayed/neutered at the appropriate age. We only adopt in So California as an in person meet/greet, home check, and trial period are required. Please contact us at: gina@theforgottendog.org or 310-990-2020

Meet Penelope! This little lady will steal your heart the moment you meet her. Penelope is a 5-month-old pug mix, and her face is literally one of the cutest things you’ll ever see.

Penelope is a small-breed pup and the perfect match for a family with kids. She loves being held, carried, and treated like the little princess she is. Penelope is ready for someone who will give her patience, love, and a forever home. Is that you?

1 year Male Altered 12 pounds Short hair Up to Date on Shots Dillan can play all day until he can barely keep his eyes open, then he will snuggle up and snooze like a baby. He is very smart and quick to figure things out (including how to get into places he maybe shouldn’t). Dillan is crate trained and doing really well with housebreaking. A secure yard is a must. Both because he is small and because his inquisitive nature means he is always exploring. He is bouncy and adorable and is always ready to play Each morning, he will greet you with yelps of joy, squealing and wiggling like it’s the best day of his life just because you walked into the room. He adores people. Dillan always looks like he’s worried. But he is actually always ready to play and is a happy little guy Dillan lives in a multi dog foster home and gets along with everyone including a very crabby pitbull Dillan is ready to fill your home with laughter, love, and the kind of companionship that only comes once in a lifetime.

Cowboy

Bulldog Pit Bull Terrier

Male, 10 yrs 1 mo

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Hi there, I’m Cowboy 🤠 I’m a 10-year-old, 60-pound neutered bulldog/pitbull mix with a big heart and an easygoing soul. Even though I spent most of my life as an outdoor dog, I’ve discovered that I really love the good life indoors—and I’ve taken to it like a pro. I landed at the South LA Animal Shelter on Valentine’s Day (yep, a lover boy through and through ), was later transferred to West LA, and then headed to my foster home on 12/23. Since then, I’ve been showing everyone just how sweet and wonderful I am. In fact, I’m such a pleasant, easy foster that even my foster dad—who is very picky about foster dogs—is totally happy having me stay! I’m completely house-trained and very polite in the home. I walk right into my open crate to snooze, sleep through the night without a single peep, and I rarely bark—only if something really unexpected startles me. I love to play fetch, chew on (and sometimes enthusiastically destroy) toys, and I can happily entertain myself when needed. I adore my female foster fur-sister and cover her in smooches all day long. I’m playful, affectionate, and full of love. I’m also great with teenagers and their friends, friendly with strangers, and just an all-around good guy. I even love water play—splashing is a blast! I know a few commands already and I’m eager to keep learning. I do pull on leash right now, but I wear a good harness and will be working with a trainer to polish my walking skills. I haven’t met any cats yet, so that’s still to be determined. If you’re looking for a loving, playful, well-mannered companion with a heart of gold and a face you can’t help but smile at, I might just be your guy. I’m ready to be someone’s forever Cowboy. Much Love, Cowboy
