  Meet Newton A Friendly Little Pug With a Big Heart and So Much Love to Give! Breed: Pug Gender: Male | Age: 2 Years DOB: October 23, 2024 (Estimated) Weight: 7.2 kg / 16 lbs Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Kids ✔️ | Cats: Unknown Personality: Friendly | Social | Affectionate | Sweet Medical: Neuter Status: Unknown | Vaccination Status: Not Provided | Microchip: Not Provided Location: Los Angeles, California Transportation: Safe transportation coordinated for approved adopters throughout the United States. ❤️ Personality & Breed Information Meet Newton, an adorable 2-year-old Pug weighing approximately 16 pounds! This handsome little gentleman has a friendly personality and is ready to find a loving family who will welcome him into their hearts and home. Newton is a friendly boy who enjoys positive interactions and has the potential to become a wonderful companion for someone looking for a smaller dog with a lovable personality. At two years old, Newton is a young adult who has moved beyond the earliest stages of puppyhood while still having plenty of wonderful years ahead of him. His compact size makes him a potential companion for different living environments, including apartments and houses, provided his exercise, companionship, and healthcare needs are met. About the Pug Breed Pugs are beloved for their affectionate personalities, charming expressions, playful nature, and strong attachment to their families. Originally bred as companion dogs, Pugs often enjoy spending time close to their people and participating in everyday family activities. Newton may share many of these typical breed characteristics: Friendly and social: Pugs often enjoy meeting people and being part of family activities. Affectionate and devoted: Many form close bonds with their families and appreciate attention and companionship. Playful and entertaining: Their amusing personalities can bring laughter and joy into a household. Adaptable: Pugs can do well in different home environments when their needs are met. People-oriented: Many prefer spending time with their families rather than being left alone for extended periods. Moderate exercise needs: Pugs generally enjoy short walks and playtime but require special care in warm weather. Because Pugs are companion-oriented dogs, Newton would benefit from a home where he can enjoy regular interaction, affection, and a predictable daily routine. His ideal family will appreciate his friendly nature while understanding the specific health and lifestyle needs associated with his breed. Newton may be a little dog, but he has the potential to bring an enormous amount of happiness into someone's life! Training, Adjustment & What to Expect At two years old, Newton is a young adult who will benefit from continued training, positive reinforcement, and a consistent household routine. Rescue dogs may arrive with basic training at best, so adopters should be prepared to continue working on house training if needed, leash manners, basic obedience, recall, calm greetings, household boundaries, and appropriate socialization. Pugs are often intelligent and responsive to reward-based training, especially when sessions are short, positive, and enjoyable. Newton's future family should use patience, encouragement, and consistency to help him learn what is expected in his new home. Exercise & Daily Activities Although Pugs are not typically high-endurance dogs, they still benefit from regular physical activity and mental enrichment. Newton may enjoy: Short, comfortable daily walks. Gentle interactive games and supervised playtime. Puzzle toys and enrichment activities. Positive reinforcement training with treats and praise. Spending quality time with his favorite people. Because Pugs have shortened muzzles, Newton's family should avoid strenuous exercise, particularly during hot or humid weather. Walks should be scheduled during cooler parts of the day, and he should always have access to fresh water and a comfortable, temperature-controlled environment. Living With Other Pets Newton is considered suitable for homes with other dogs and children, with appropriate introductions and supervision. His compatibility with cats has not yet been confirmed. As with any dog, introductions to new animals should be gradual, supervised, and respectful of each pet's comfort level. The 3-3-3 Rule Every rescue dog needs time to adjust to a new environment. 3 Days: Time to decompress, observe his surroundings, and begin feeling safe. 3 Weeks: Time to understand his new household routine, build confidence, and become more comfortable. 3 Months: Time to strengthen his bond with his family, settle into daily life, and begin feeling truly at home. These are general guidelines rather than strict deadlines. Every dog adjusts at their own pace. Newton deserves a family who will provide patience, stability, encouragement, and reassurance as he settles into his forever home. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Newton's neuter and vaccination status have not yet been confirmed. His future adopter should review his medical records and schedule a veterinary wellness examination to determine whether vaccinations, parasite prevention, microchipping, or other preventive care are needed. If Newton has not yet been neutered, his family should discuss appropriate arrangements with a veterinarian. Important Pug Health Considerations Pugs are a brachycephalic breed, meaning they have shortened muzzles and can be prone to breathing difficulties. Responsible Pug ownership requires special attention to respiratory health, temperature regulation, and weight management. Newton's future family should understand the following: Breathing and respiratory health: Pugs can be affected by brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS), which may cause noisy breathing, exercise intolerance, and difficulty regulating body temperature. Heat sensitivity: Pugs are particularly vulnerable to overheating. Newton should be kept cool during warm weather and should never be left outdoors in excessive heat or inside a parked vehicle. Weight management: Maintaining a healthy weight is especially important because excess weight can worsen breathing difficulties and place additional stress on joints. Eye care: Their prominent eyes can be more susceptible to irritation and injury, making routine monitoring important. Skin-fold care: Facial folds may require regular gentle cleaning and drying to prevent irritation or infection. Dental health: Small, short-muzzled breeds can be prone to dental crowding and periodontal disease. Joint health: Regular veterinary examinations can help identify orthopedic concerns, including kneecap problems. A veterinarian can assess Newton's individual breathing and health needs and recommend any necessary precautions or treatment. Daily Care & Owner Responsibilities Newton will need: High-quality nutrition appropriate for his age, size, and activity level. Routine veterinary examinations and preventive healthcare. Gentle, regular exercise suited to his breathing and physical comfort. A cool, safe indoor environment, especially during hot weather. Regular dental care, grooming, and nail maintenance. Consistent flea, tick, and parasite prevention as recommended by his veterinarian. Continued training, mental enrichment, and companionship. A well-fitted harness to help avoid unnecessary pressure on his neck during walks. Adopting Newton is a lifelong commitment that includes providing proper nutrition, veterinary care, training, exercise, safety, companionship, and unconditional love. Adoption Information If you are interested in adopting Newton, please complete an adoption application: https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions Ozzie and Friends Rescue is a Los Angeles-based nonprofit dedicated to rescuing dogs in need and helping them find safe, loving forever homes.

Meet Goyo Chill, Loving, and Friendly With Everyone—Even Cats! Breed: Pug Chi Mix Gender: Male | Age: 9/28/2024 Weight: 21 lbs (small) Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Kids ✔️ | Cats ✔️ Personality: ❤️ Loving | Very Chill | Affectionate | Friendly Medical: ✔️ Neutered | ✔️ Vaccinations Up to Date Location: Los Angeles, California Transportation: Ozzie and Friends Rescue coordinates safe transportation for approved adopters throughout the United States. ❤️ Personality & Breed Information Goyo is an adorable Chug mix weighing approximately 21 pounds, and his personality is just as lovable as his little face. He's a very chill, loving boy who is friendly with everyone—including dogs, children, and cats. Goyo has an easygoing nature and enjoys companionship without needing to make everything complicated. He's the kind of little guy who can happily be part of everyday family life—hanging out with his people, enjoying a leisurely walk, getting some affection, and then settling in nearby to relax. As a Chug mix, Goyo may share some of the breed's typical qualities. Chugs are often affectionate, social, playful, charming, and strongly attached to their people. Many are happiest simply being included in whatever their family is doing. Goyo's naturally relaxed personality makes him especially endearing. He doesn't need nonstop excitement to be happy. Love, companionship, comfortable places to relax, and people who enjoy having him around are much more his style. Training, Adjustment & What to Expect Although Goyo is already an adult, every dog needs time to understand a new home and routine. Rescue dogs may arrive with basic training at best, so his adopter should be prepared to continue reinforcing house manners, leash skills, basic commands, recall, and household boundaries as needed. His naturally friendly personality is a wonderful foundation, but consistency and positive-reinforcement training will still help him understand what his new family expects from him. The 3-3-3 Rule 3 Days to decompress and begin feeling safe 3 Weeks to understand his new household routine 3 Months to fully settle in, build trust, and feel at home These are guidelines rather than deadlines. Even a friendly, easygoing dog like Goyo deserves time to settle in at his own pace. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Goyo is neutered and up to date on his vaccinations. His future family should continue routine veterinary examinations, recommended vaccine boosters, parasite prevention, dental care, nail care, quality nutrition, healthy weight management, appropriate exercise, and veterinary treatment whenever necessary. Because Goyo is a French Bulldog mix, his family should also be mindful of possible brachycephalic, or short-nosed, characteristics. Dogs with shorter airways can be more sensitive to heat, humidity, and strenuous exercise. Goyo should have access to cool indoor spaces and fresh water during warm weather, and his family should watch for excessive panting, overheating, or breathing difficulties. Keeping him at a healthy weight is also particularly important. Adoption Information If you are interested in adopting Goyo, please complete an adoption application: https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions Ozzie and Friends Rescue is a Los Angeles-based nonprofit dedicated to rescuing dogs in need and helping them find safe, loving forever homes. While based in Southern California, we coordinate safe transportation for approved adopters throughout the United States. Our goal is to give every dog the best possible chance of finding the right family and a home where they will be loved and cared for throughout their life. Adopting Goyo means committing to his veterinary care, safety, companionship, training, and happiness for the rest of his life. Goyo is friendly with dogs, kids, and cats, but what he really seems to love is simply being close to his people. He's chill, affectionate, and ready for a comfortable life filled with love. Give Goyo a cozy place beside you, and he may decide that's exactly where he belongs.October 26, 2026, 10:41 am

Meet Dizirella A Little Pug With a Big Heart and a Forever Home Waiting Breed: Pug Gender: Female | Age: 4 Years DOB: October 11, 2022  Weight: 7 kg / 15 lbs Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Kids ✔️ | Cats: Unknown Personality: Affectionate | Playful | Charming | Companion-Oriented (Typical Pug Traits) Medical: Spay: Unknown | Vaccinations: Up to date | Microchip: Not Provided Location: Los Angeles, California Transportation: Safe transportation coordinated for approved adopters throughout the United States. ❤️ Personality & Breed Information Dizirella is an adorable 4-year-old Pug weighing approximately 15 pounds. With her charming little face and compact size, she's ready to find a family who will give her the love, comfort, and companionship every dog deserves. Pugs are often known for their affectionate, playful, outgoing, and people-loving personalities. They tend to form strong bonds with their families and enjoy being included in everyday activities. Whether it's relaxing on the couch, following their favorite person around the house, or enjoying a little playtime, Pugs often make wonderful companions. At four years old, Dizirella is a young adult who has moved beyond the early puppy stage while still having plenty of life ahead of her. She would benefit from a family that enjoys spending quality time with their dog and can provide gentle daily exercise, mental enrichment, positive-reinforcement training, and plenty of companionship. Because Pugs are a flat-faced breed, Dizirella will also need a family that understands the importance of protecting her from overheating and excessive physical exertion. With the right home, this little girl has the opportunity to enjoy a wonderful life filled with affection, security, and companionship. Training, Adjustment & What to Expect Like any rescue dog, Dizirella will need time to adjust to her new home, learn her family's routine, and become comfortable with her surroundings. Rescue dogs may arrive with basic training at best, so adopters should be prepared to continue working on house manners as needed, leash walking, basic commands, recall, calm greetings, and household boundaries. Pugs can be clever and food-motivated, making positive-reinforcement training, patience, and consistency especially helpful. Short, enjoyable training sessions and a predictable daily routine can help Dizirella settle into her new home while strengthening her bond with her family. The 3-3-3 Rule 3 Days: Time to decompress and begin feeling safe. 3 Weeks: Time to understand her new household routine. 3 Months: Time to build trust, settle in, and begin feeling truly at home. These are guidelines rather than deadlines. Every rescue dog adjusts at their own pace. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Dizirella's spay, vaccination, and microchip status have not yet been confirmed. Her adopter should review her available medical records with a veterinarian and determine whether she needs vaccinations, spaying, microchipping, parasite prevention, or other routine veterinary care. As a Pug, Dizirella has some important breed-specific needs. Breathing & Heat Sensitivity: Pugs are brachycephalic, meaning their short facial structure can make breathing and temperature regulation more difficult. Dizirella should be kept cool, especially during warm weather, and should never be pushed into strenuous exercise. A veterinarian should assess her breathing and discuss any concerns. Healthy Weight: Maintaining a healthy body weight is particularly important for Pugs because excess weight can increase breathing difficulties and put additional strain on their joints. Skin, Eyes & Dental Care: Pugs may require additional attention to facial folds, eye health, and dental hygiene. Regular veterinary examinations can help identify and manage potential concerns. Her ongoing care should also include quality nutrition, gentle exercise, appropriate grooming, nail care, routine wellness examinations, and veterinary treatment whenever necessary. Adoption Information If you are interested in adopting Dizirella, please complete an adoption application: https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions Ozzie and Friends Rescue is a Los Angeles-based nonprofit dedicated to rescuing dogs in need and helping them find safe, loving forever homes.

Dizirella may be small, but she has a whole lifetime of love and companionship to share. At four years old, she's ready for the comfort of a forever home, a family who understands her needs, and someone who will make her feel like the most important little Pug in the world. Every princess deserves her happily ever after—and Dizirella is waiting for hers. Add a clear adoption-ready opening summary October 26, 2026, 10:41 am
