Story
Meet Plankton Pete The Sea Chug! Plankton is a 2-month-old Pug and Chihuahua mix, a Chug, who is sweet, affectionate, and lively, with all of that classic Pug energy. He’s a little bundle of personality who loves life, his toys, and his people, and he’s as playful as he is cuddly. Plankton lives with his sister, Jellyfish, and the two play well together, sometimes rough-and-tumble style. He’s being well socialized with his foster siblings, and he lives in a house with cats. He loves his toys, and he’s always ready for the next game, whether that’s a chase, a tug, or a good pounce. After all that excitement, Plankton is just as happy to settle in for some snuggle time. He loves to be held and to relax after a round of playtime, melting into your arms like the sweet little guy he is. Plankton would do best with dogs who can keep up with him, or with an active family who will match his energy with plenty of play. His Pug and Chihuahua mix suggests he’ll stay lively as he grows, so regular exercise, play, and gentle training are recommended. Plankton is looking for a family with plenty of love, room to play, and a lap for snuggles. Could that be you?

Story
Chorizo Quesadilla has something magical between his sparkle eyes and sweet smile that gets people every time. Add his soft, golden coat and he manages to capture everyone who meets his attention. He's a very cute little boy with a beautifully gentle, loving nature. Chorizo quesadilla is an itty-bitty boy who’s around 5 pounds right now, with a smooth coat in a beautiful shades of gold and caramel. We’re guessing he may be a Chihuahua/pug mix, though his breed is our best guess. Whatever went into making this little face, it worked. He is wonderful meeting new people and happily welcomes their affection. There’s no elaborate introduction needed—some sweet talk and a gentle hand are a lovely place to start. Before long, he will happily show you where the belly rubs go. His favorite place is in your lap and snuggling under your chin. At home, Chorizo settles in beautifully. He's quiet, enjoys being near his people, and is perfectly happy to accept a treat and find a cozy place to enjoy it. Watching a little dog contentedly work on his snack is surprisingly good entertainment, especially when the little dog is this cute. Chorizo is polite with other dogs and could happily share his home with a furry companion. He appreciates friends who like to run, play and cuddle! . He could happily Live with a dog his size or bigger! Chorizo also loves kids and is happily sharing his home with two young kids! Sweet, affectionate, and lovely to have around, Chorizo has plenty to offer beyond that adorable face.
