Story
Coming to Wright-Way Rescue from Operation Kindness in Texas are two puppies with a breed combination we’re pretty sure no one saw coming: Pug/Norwegian Elkhound mixes!Yes, you read that correctly. Somewhere along the way, the universe decided the world needed puppies with a little Pug charm, a little Norwegian Elkhound spirit, and a whole lot of personality—and we’re certainly not complaining.These two pups are as unique as they are adorable. They’re sweet, social, friendly, and always ready to make a new friend. Whether they’re investigating something interesting, playing with their puppy pals, or climbing into the nearest available lap, they approach life with enthusiasm and plenty of charm.We can’t predict exactly what they’ll look like when they’re grown, but we can confidently say you’re unlikely to meet another dog quite like them! If you’re looking for a social, lovable puppy with an unforgettable breed mix and a personality to match, one of these Texas originals might be the perfect addition to your family.THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN SAVING A LIFE!Volunteers and staff are excited to assist you in the adoption process!

Mimi

Pug Beagle

Female, 5 yrs 10 mos
Mundelein, IL
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Mimi is an adorable Puggle with a charming personality and an independent spirit all her own. She's currently working on potty training and is crate trained, but she's the type of girl who likes to do things on Mimi time. While she may not always be the most attentive pup, Mimi enjoys being near her people and can often be found lounging on the back of the couch, quietly keeping an eye on the household. She's still adjusting to her new surroundings and learning what life as a beloved family pet is all about. One thing Mimi is very enthusiastic about? Food! She's highly motivated by people-food and has been known to climb onto chairs and even tables in search of a tasty snack. Her future family will need to help her learn appropriate boundaries and keep tempting treats out of reach. Mimi also has an adventurous side. She's frequently found checking out the front door or garage door, seemingly dreaming about her next expedition. Because of this, her family will need to be extra mindful when coming and going—if she spots an opportunity, she may try to sneak out and explore. Mimi is looking for a patient family that appreciates her independent nature while helping her continue to build good habits and settle into a routine. In return, she'll provide plenty of entertainment, companionship, and her own unique brand of affection. If you're looking for a quirky, clever Puggle with a big personality and an adventurous spirit, Mimi may be the perfect fit for your home!   Due to our participation in the Vernon Hills 4th of July Parade, there will be no adoption event on Saturday, July 4, 2026. Instead, come visit us the following weekend at Libertyville Dog Days of Summer on July 11 & 12! Stop by to have some fun, meet our amazing adoptable pets, and say hello to the Reach Rescue team. Please note: There will also be no adoption event on Saturday, July 11, 2026, as we'll be at Dog Days of Summer.   Follow us on Facebook for additional updates and sneak peeks of new adoptables!  https://www.facebook.com/reachrescue ##2735713##

Story
My family experienced housing/financial difficulties. Life is not always easy… Young kids kept me busy and so did another dog. I also grew up with cats. Let me tell you something, cat food is a lot tastier than dog food. Cats are gastronomes so I joined them to enjoy the pleasure of perfect food. I’m a super sweet boy, playful and quite sociable. I am also quite smart, sit, speak, down and out….and talking about speak, I love baby talk. Are you ready for a fun conversation? I'm back online because the cats in my recent home and I didn't get along…I’m ready for my next family so come on over.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Gus – Your New Best Friend!  Gus is a lovable Pug mix with a heart as sweet as they come. Through no fault of his own, he found himself owner surrendered to a shelter, but he's ready to leave that chapter behind and find the forever family he deserves. This gentle boy loves being close to his people and enjoys simply sharing your company. Gus is happiest when he's nearby. He's also fantastic with other dogs. Since arriving at the rescue, Gus has shown very little anxiety and has settled in nicely. Like many dogs, he'll benefit from a patient family who will give him a little time to adjust to his new surroundings.  We were told when being owner surrendered, the Gus is potty trained and does know how to use a bell to alert when needing to use the bathroom.  Gus is neutered, 4DX negative, microchipped, current on all vaccinations, and protected with ProHeart 12 and Bravecto.  His adoption fee is $400. To apply to adopt Gus, visit www.adoggie4you.org. Gus is currently located in Texas but can be transported to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington (Kentucky), and locations along the East Coast for an additional $250 transport fee. Please note that transport is not available to Rhode Island or Massachusetts due to state regulations.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 12, 2026, 7:07 pm
