Pug puppies and dogs in Anacortes, Washington

Lola is the equivalent of a clown cars trunk, full of the fun stuff! Take cartoonish features, add four squeaky toys, a bouncy ball, at least one crinkle toy, and a pogo stick… and somehow turn it into a 20 lb dog. That is Lola! She is estimated to be around a year old and looks very much like a pug/boxer mix, though rescue rules absolutely apply and we cannot guarantee either. What we can guarantee is that Lola arrives preloaded with comedy, athleticism, and a level of enthusiasm that rivals a sugared up kid about to get on their first carnival ride. Go watch Lola on YouTube, then come right back to read more about this zoomie-powered party goblin. https://youtu.be/Lmiv_G04_1w Lola is wildly entertaining and genuinely a very happy dog. She loves fetch with her whole entire being, though we would currently rank her return skills at approximately 97% mastery because once she gets the toy, she can easily forget who threw it and occasionally what the next step is to get someone to throw it again. She absolutely thrives with playful dogs that enjoy chase games, wrestling, and rough-and-tumble antics. She is an absolute toy lover, easily self-entertains, and wakes up every day ready to turn life into recess. Lola would likely thrive with someone who genuinely enjoys training and wants an active sidekick to pour into. Think adventure buddy, hiking pal, training class enthusiast, enrichment queen, “let’s work your brain and body” kind of home. She is the kind of dog that will be incredibly rewarding in the right hands. She handles environmental stressors well, recovers quickly, and remains social and confident with people always. She is loving, goofy, resilient, and very game for whatever comes next. Lola’s dream home includes an equally playful dog who enjoys chase, shares toys, and enjoys the occasional playful wrestling match. This dream home will be cat-free and she would like to pass on apartment living, the girl wants room to run! More than one playmate is welcome as long as they are sturdy, playful dogs over 25 lbs that enjoy physical play, have good tolerance levels, and know how to take breaks. Because Lola is young and driven she will benefit from a structured home committed to helping her learn how to “dog-well.” She is learning how to settle in the home and will need encouragement to slow her busy brain down in exciting environments. The encouraging part is that she responds well to guidance and is very responsive to appropriate corrections. We love Lola! From her mini-boxer look to that pug-like tail, she is one-of-a-kind gal ready and waiting for her forever! Ready to make the first move?

Rachel’s write up: Meet Rachel! 🥰🌲 If you are looking for a soft, sweet companion with her head playfully in the clouds, meet Rachel! At 1.5 years old and at 17 lbs, this happy-go-lucky Pekingese/Pug mix is looking for her loving furever home and is ready to be your ultimate loyal shadow. Rachel’s story started at the Yakima Humane Society before she made her way to Happy Tails Happy Homes Rescue. She takes a little bit of time to evaluate new people when first meeting them, but she attaches very quickly. Once she knows you, she thrives on companionship—while her foster sister is off enjoying solo napping time, Rachel prefers to be right by your side, showering you with affection. ☁️✨ She is also an avid outdoor explorer who absolutely loves all the sniffs. You can frequently find her investigating molehills, munching on a few fresh blades of grass, and getting the absolute most out of every acre she gets to roam! 🌳🐾 Her Current Stats: House Manners: She is fully potty trained and a total champ in her crate! She settles down right away without a single complaint. 🏡💤 Social Butterfly (With Intros): With a slow, proper introduction, she does well with most dogs. Her history with cats is unknown, but given her sweet, gentle nature, she could likely thrive with a patient, managed introduction phase. 🐕🐈‍⬛ Road Trips: Rachel does get a little drooly and carsick on rides, so she’d love a patient, empathetic family willing to take corners slowly and help her comfortably adjust to the road over time. 🚗💦 Smart & Treat-Motivated: Training and bonding with Rachel is an absolute joy because she is incredibly food-motivated! She is currently picking up on sit, off, and recall. Walks well on a leash. She will thrive with a family who has the time, energy, and consistency to keep showing her new cues using positive reinforcement. 📈🍖 ✨ Special Foster Perk for her Adopters! To set Rachel and her new family up for a lifetime of fun, her foster family is offering a lifetime, free Sniffspot code to their property! She will always be welcome to come back to run, play, explore, and sniff around familiar places. Perfect Match: Rachel knows she is a total star and wants all your love to herself! She is looking for a sweet snuggler of a human who is ready for a devoted, sidekick companion. 👉 Note: Rachel and her sister Phoebe came into rescue together, but they are not bonded and are looking to be adopted independently so they can each be the shining star of their own furever home!

Phoebe’s write up: If you're looking for a dog with brains, beauty, and just the right amount of independence, meet Phoebe! At 1.5 years old and a sturdy 21 lbs, this dark-coated, incredibly soft girl has serious "main character" energy and is ready to find her furever loving home. Like her sister Rachel, Phoebe came to Happy Tails Happy Homes Rescue from the Yakima Humane Society. She carries that classic, endearing mix of initial shyness and fierce loyalty. She might take a brief moment to open up during a first meeting, but once you’re in her inner circle, she loves with her whole heart! Phoebe is a thoughtful girl who likes to make sure everything is in order. She’s a natural protector and appreciates her solo time, happily wandering off to take a quiet nap in her own space or catch some rays sunbathing outside. But don't let her independent streak fool you—she wants to know she's your number one, and you’ll frequently catch her throwing you an adorable signature side-eye just to make sure you're still paying attention to her. 🌟 Her Current Stats: House Manners: Phoebe is completely potty trained and does wonderfully with her crate training, settling down to rest beautifully the moment she goes inside. 🏡💤 Friends & Companions: With proper, slow introductions, she gets along well with most dogs and loves people! We don't know how she is with cats yet, but her sweet disposition means she could likely adapt well to a dog-savvy feline with the right management. 🐕 Travel Vibes: She is down to go places, though she does get a bit carsick. She is looking for an empathetic, respectful co-pilot willing to take corners slowly and help her build confidence on the road! 🚗 Smart & Playful: When she isn't napping, she loves to play! This girl is highly treat-motivated, which makes training and bonding with her a deeply rewarding experience. She’s currently picking up on sit, off, and recall, walks well on a leash, and she will thrive with a consistent handler who enjoys positive reinforcement and setting clear, loving boundaries. 🧸🎾 ✨ Special Foster Perk for her Adopters! To set Phoebe and her new family up for a lifetime of fun, her foster family is offering a lifetime, free Sniffspot code to their property! She will always be welcome to come back to run, play, explore, and sniff around familiar places. Perfect Match: Phoebe is the ultimate choice if you want a sweetheart who loves hard, snuggles deep, and has a wonderful, soulful personality. 👉 Note: Phoebe and her sister Rachel came into rescue together, but they are not bonded and are looking to be adopted independently so they can each find their own spotlight!
