Chaos

Pug

Male, Young

Normal, IL

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Chaos is an adorable pug who is about 1.5 years old (born 6/6/2024) and weighs 21 lbs. True to his name, he’s a fun-loving, bouncy little guy with a big personality and an even bigger heart. Chaos has almost mastered house-training and does great in his crate at night. He’s a very active, playful pup who loves romping around with his female canine siblings, playing fetch, zooming around the house or yard, and enjoying all the toys he can get his paws on. When he finally runs out of energy, he’s more than happy to curl up close to his people for a cozy nap on your lap. He’s currently working on leash training, and because he can escape a harness or collar and doesn’t feel comfortable going potty on a leash or tie-out, a secure fenced yard would be the best fit for him. Chaos loves everyone, but due to his enthusiastic and excitable nature, he’ll do best with older kids who can handle his happy energy. Chaos is super smart, eager to learn, and described as friendly, outgoing, adaptable, happy, playful, and loyal. His foster mom says he doesn’t know a stranger—he wants to be friends with everyone he meets! He loves being right by his people’s side, sometimes forgetting about personal space because he never wants to miss out on anything. His minimum adoption fee is $400 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.

Otto

Pug Chihuahua

Male, 9 yrs 1 mo

Sheridan, IL

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

We look forward to your response in regards for this delightful gentleman, but when you do, please use our application at sparrowdogs.com, or tell us a bit about yourself please. Meet Otto, he is perhaps a Pugchi, part Pug and part Chihuahua. We think the Pug genes gave him his love for the sedentary life, appetite and some girth. His Chihuahua side of the family tossed in a little bit of spice into that mix and gave him just a dash of attitude. He is a man of leisure. He enjoys a fine meal and a soft bed. He prefers his blankets swirled around his portly frame. Occasionally his face will poke out, just for a sniff, perhaps there is a snack headed his way?? Or...one of the other foster dogs might need his stern guidance if things are getting a little willy nilly. He does not suffer fools lightly.(lol) Well, with that said, that is the reputation Otto tries to uphold. He wouldn't want anyone to know that he really has a fun side, ya know! He can be a little cantankerous on occasion, but all that amounts to is a few grumbles. He wouldn't want to admit it, but he has had a lot of fun running around with the playful dogs in the yard. Even at 8-9 years old, he can be a spunky guy. Otto enjoys spending his time relaxing on a soft bed. He is looking for a more laid back home, and one that will understand that he may need a little time to get to know you. He will do well in a a dog savvy home that understands that it takes time to develop some relationships, and those can be the best ones!! He can be fine with kids, but we think perhaps teens, no little guys. Otto is fine with women, but really prefers men, he would like a buddy to hang around with.

Ringo

Pug English Bulldog

Male, 1 yr 3 mos

Shorewood, IL

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Ringo, a 1-year-old English Bulldog/Pug mix weighing about 45lbs. Ringo has had a rough start and is looking for a patient, dedicated home to help him blossom. He is dog friendly and very curious about other dogs, we think it would be very beneficial to have a friendly, confident dog in the home. Ringo can jump or climb any barrier or fence. He cannot be off leash outside at all as he will escape and run away. Ringo is quite nervous and will need a couple meet and greets to get comfortable. Once he is comfortable, he thinks he is a lap dog and will jump onto staff or into their laps. His ideal home would be without kids and in a quieter environment, away from a lot of traffic.If interested in Ringo, please understand he will be foster-to-adopt as he will need time to decompress. We also have a behaviorist we utilize to help with the transition and adjustment.
