Kentuckiana Pug Rescue in Indianapolis, Indiana, USA

Posted Breed: Pug. Hi, my name's Misty. I'm an almost 11 year old senior southern Indiana gal. I'm completely blind in my left eye and have some vision loss in my right eye. I am very hard of hearing, but can hear higher pitched noises. My own shadow throws me off sometimes and I growl at myself . I will go outside and do my business when I have to. I don't like to get dirty, so like most new dogs I will need to be given some time to adjust to the routine. I also need a little more time, you know thing take longer when you get older. I like soft foods now as I am getting some dental work done, but should be fixed up in no time I prefer to sleep on the couch arm or in your lap, but I do sleep contently in my crate and never go potty in there. Being older and dignified I would do best in a calm relaxed home, but I do get along with respectful dogs who are calm. My foster human brothers are ages 4 and 6. They are so nice to me and I love laying in their bed cuddling. My previous owner must have forgotten about my harness over the years and I had to have it surgically removed. I am left with some scars where the harness rubbed me raw. Like most pug I do not like my ears or eyes touched, ESPECIALLY when medication is involved. I will let you know, just don't take it personally. I am the shy type in the beginning. Only because I can't see my surroundings that well, I'm a bit timid. However, after about a day or so, I'll own the place. Oh before I forget, I don't know how to jump, so please pick me up, I love being held ♡

Posted Breed: Pug (short coat). Oscar Thirteen year old senior sweetheart seeking my happy place on your lap. I like soft blankets and plenty of head strokes and belly rubs. I do have some lameness in my back legs, but I do well unless it comes to stairs. I have good potty manners and will “run” back inside the house for cookies (training treats.) I tolerate getting my ears and nose cleaned and my nails clipped well. I am missing nearly all of my teeth, so I do best with wet food. Some days, I wait until the last minute to eat my food because I hold out to see if I will get any people food. Although it doesn’t really work, I have perfected the sad puppy eyes when my foster family is eating. My bonded “brother,” Gizmo, will eat my food if you don’t watch him! I do get along with other dogs and with cats. If you are looking for a new shadow to follow you like a love-struck pup, I’m your man!

Posted Breed: Pug (short coat). Gizmo I am a well-mannered, 13 year old man who is bonded with my “brother,” Oscar. I enjoy long naps on a soft bed and occasional head and booty scratches. I have good potty manners, but sometimes choose the concrete patio over the grass, just to make my foster parents laugh. I do have cataracts, which limit my vision, but I get around just fine once I learn the lay of the land. I’m not good with stairs. I do not like to have my face touched, so cleaning my ears and nose wrinkle can prove a challenge. As with most pugs, I also do not like my nails cut. I will tell you loudly when you are done with either about my dissatisfaction. I am truly a sweet old man looking for a quiet place to rest my head. I do get along with other dogs and tolerate cats (as long as they are not in my bed. Bonded with Oscar Location: Northern Indiana Donation: $350.00 (bonded pair)
