Pug puppies and dogs in Wellington, Colorado

Meet Sandie Dee! If her smile doesn’t draw you in, her kind, wiggly personality surely will! Sandie Dee is just as sweet as she is cute, and that adorable underbite is just about heartmelting! She’s a lovable little girl who is sure to snuggle her way right into your heart. Sandie would love to go home with someone who will be able to give her all the love! She connects with people so well, she always wants to hangout and be near you. If you work from home, this chicka would be PUMPED! She's adored by everyone, so we know she will find her new family quickly! Don't miss out on this girl before she gets snatched up! Sandie Dee is sure to charm you with her sweet snaggle-toothed smile, happy wiggle, and stellar snuggling skills! If that smile wasn’t enough to sell you, here are some of the joys a day in the life with sweet Sandra could provide: Previous caretakers say: Morning snuggles in bed 😴 She is happy to sleep quietly through the night on a bed in your room but LOVES snuggling and curls up into a very tiny and space efficient ball for bed sharing Zoomies after her morning potty break - she’s house trained 🙌 The best buddy for getting those steps in 🏃‍♂️She walks politely on a leash and loves sniffing all the neighborhood gossip or hitting the park or trails A productivity-boosting work from home companion 🤓 Sandie loves to be near you and will nap quietly while you work so she’s rested and ready for your next adventure together Comedic relief in these trying times - Sandie is a goofball, and is sure to make you laugh with her biiiiiiiig stretches, rolling around in the grass, and signature backward snuggle trust fall Constant companionship 🤝 Sandie is sweet and friendly with new people and LOVES being around her people (though really any people will do). We think she’d love a home where people are around more than not or work from home! Like all of us Sandie isn’t perfect (though she’s pretty dang close)! She’s still figuring out other dogs and would likely prefer to be an only dog, at least for the time being while she learns to be more comfortable socializing with dog buddies. BUT she’s fab with cats and would be delighted to share a home with a feline friend!

Meet Boo! He is a 1 year old chihuahua who has had a difficult start to life. He is looking for a patient, adult only, home that will give him time to trust and come out of his shell.  Boo does great with his foster "sister" and loves belly rubs from his foster dad.  Boo is working on his potty training and has likely never been walked on a leash before. His new home will require a yard while he learns to go for walks. November 10, 2026, 5:11 pm

ADOPTION FEE: $425 Meet Taz! A scrunchy nose, a swirly tail, and a heart that somehow still sees the good in everyone. At a little over a year old, Taz has been through things we could never imagine. But when you meet him, you’ll meet a boy who is so happy to see you that you’d never guess his past. His joy is contagious, and he’s ready to share it with a family of his own. Our best guess is that he’s some sort of pug mix, with an extra helping of personality! His favorite things include people, other dogs, and PLAYING! Especially when a good stick is involved. Why buy fancy toys when the perfect branch is waiting outside? Taz gets along wonderfully with other dogs, and while he’s curious about cats, he knows how to be a proper gentleman around his feline friends. As for strangers? Taz is pretty sure those are just friends he hasn’t greeted yet. This smiley boy deserves a future filled with love, playtime, and people who are just as excited to see him as he is to see them. Looking for a little pug mix with a colorful personality and a whole lot of heart? Taz might be your guy. Interested in this furry companion?

  Meet Ginebra! ❤️ A Petite Pug Princess Ready to Find Her Forever Family! Breed: Pug Gender: Female Age: 2 Years DOB: 11/07/2024 Weight: 11 lbs (5 kg) Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Kids ✔️ | Cats: Unknown Personality: Kind and affectionate Medical: Vaccinations Up to Date ✔️ | Spayed ✔️ ❤️ Personality & Breed Information Meet Ginebra, an adorable 2-year-old Pug weighing just 11 pounds! This petite little lady is searching for a forever family who will give her the love, comfort, and companionship she deserves. At two years old, Ginebra is a young adult who has moved beyond the earliest stages of puppyhood while still having plenty of life ahead of her. Her individual personality is still being documented, but her breed is well known for producing affectionate, entertaining companions who enjoy being part of the family. About the Pug Breed Pugs are beloved for their expressive faces, charming personalities, and strong attachment to their people. Originally bred as companion dogs, they often thrive in homes where they receive plenty of affection and attention. As a Pug, Ginebra may display several typical breed characteristics: Affectionate and People-Oriented: Pugs often enjoy being close to their families. Playful and Entertaining: Many have a silly, comical side that makes them delightful companions. Sociable: Pugs are generally known for their friendly, outgoing nature. Adaptable: Their compact size and moderate exercise needs can make them suitable for different living environments. Intelligent but Sometimes Stubborn: They respond best to patient, reward-based training. While these are common Pug characteristics, Ginebra's individual preferences and temperament will become clearer as she settles into a loving home. Ginebra's Ideal Home Ginebra could be a wonderful companion for an individual, couple, or family looking for a small dog to include in everyday life. At just 11 pounds, she is a convenient size for apartment or house living. However, her future family should understand the special health and environmental needs of flat-faced breeds. Ginebra is considered suitable for homes with other dogs and children, with proper introductions and supervision. Her compatibility with cats has not yet been confirmed. She would benefit from a family that enjoys companionship, gentle activities, and spending quality time together. Training, Adjustment & What to Expect Although Ginebra is two years old, adopters should be prepared to reinforce household manners and help her adjust to a new routine. Rescue dogs may arrive with basic training at best. Positive reinforcement can help Ginebra learn house training expectations, leash manners, basic commands, and appropriate behavior around people and other pets. Pugs are often motivated by food rewards, making short, engaging training sessions particularly useful. Treat portions should be monitored to prevent unwanted weight gain. Exercise & Daily Activities Ginebra will benefit from regular, gentle exercise, interactive toys, and mental enrichment. Because Pugs are a brachycephalic (flat-faced) breed, they can have difficulty regulating body temperature and breathing efficiently, especially during physical activity. Her family should: Schedule walks during cooler parts of the day. Avoid strenuous exercise and overheating. Provide access to shade, fresh water, and air-conditioned spaces. Use a properly fitted harness rather than placing pressure on her neck. Monitor for excessive panting, noisy or labored breathing, and signs of heat stress. The 3-3-3 Rule Every rescue dog needs time to feel comfortable in a new home: 3 Days: Decompress and begin feeling safe. 3 Weeks: Learn household routines and build confidence. 3 Months: Develop trust and feel more settled with the family. These are general guidelines, not deadlines. A calm environment and predictable routine will help Ginebra adjust at her own pace. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Ginebra is spayed and up to date on her vaccinations, giving her future family a great foundation for continuing her preventive healthcare. As a Pug, she has some important breed-specific needs that adopters should understand. Pug Health Considerations Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS): Pugs are predisposed to breathing difficulties because of their shortened facial structure. A veterinarian can assess her individual airway health. Heat Sensitivity: Pugs can overheat quickly, especially in warm or humid climates. They should never be left outdoors in extreme heat or in parked vehicles. Eye Health: Their prominent eyes can be vulnerable to irritation, injury, and certain eye conditions. Skin Fold Care: Facial wrinkles may require gentle cleaning and drying to prevent irritation or infection. Weight Management: Maintaining a healthy weight helps reduce stress on the respiratory system and joints. Dental Health: Regular dental care is important because small, flat-faced breeds may have crowded teeth. These are general breed-related risks, not diagnosed medical conditions in Ginebra. Lifelong Care Ginebra's family should provide balanced nutrition, routine veterinary examinations, parasite prevention, dental hygiene, nail trimming, and regular grooming. Because Pugs can have breathing and temperature-regulation challenges, her adopter must be prepared to provide a comfortable indoor environment and seek veterinary attention if respiratory concerns develop. Adopting Ginebra means understanding her breed's special needs and committing to her health, safety, and happiness throughout her life. Adoption Information Ready to give Ginebra the loving home she deserves? Apply to Adopt: https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions Ozzie and Friends Rescue is a Los Angeles-based nonprofit dedicated to rescuing dogs and finding them safe, loving forever homes.
