Hi, I'm

Pug
My story
Meet Dutch, a 6-year-old pug with big zoomies and an even bigger soft spot for snuggles. Dutch is the kind of dog who makes himself at home right away. He’s outgoing, confident, and happy to meet new people. He loves following his foster around, handing out kisses, and curling up for a nap after a walk. At bedtime, he’ll sleep through the night in his kennel or join the dog pile in bed. Either way, expect a little snoring. Dutch enjoys walks, sniffing around the park, and doing zoomies with his foster dog friends. He walks great on a leash and makes a wonderful walking buddy. With exercise and enrichment, he’s happy to settle in for a nap and has done well home alone for up to six hours in foster care. His foster reports that he’s friendly with kids and other dogs. He’s also learned how to live comfortably with cats and can join a home with feline friends, with gradual introductions to help everyone settle in. He’s occasionally guarded his food from other dogs while eating in his kennel, so in a multi-dog home, he’ll need a private space to eat. Dutch is potty trained, uses a doggy door, and has stopped marking in his foster home! Families should know that marking can return temporarily in a new setting. A consistent potty routine, supervision, and positive reinforcement will help him adjust and maintain his progress. He’s also continuing to work on his basic cues and learning polite manners when playing with other dogs. Dutch would love a family that enjoys getting out for walks and coming home for couch time.
