Description
Dog Breed: Pug / Chihuahua / Mixed. Say Hello to sweet Buttons! We rescued her from the shelter, pregnant, on the euth list. She was found on the streets with a belly full of babies. She gave birth to 5 pups in foster on 8/12/2025 and after taking great care of her pups, she's ready for her furever family. Buttons is very loving and relaxed. Likes to steal whatever toy the other dogs (including her puppies) are chewing on. Doesn't resource-guard, though - you can take it right back. She loves to get pets and come right up to your face for loving. She does not go potty in her kennel and knows where to go outside. Needs some leash training. Loves every guest that comes by - male and female. Likes to chase "things that go bump in the night" but never catches anything. Not much of a barker so when she does bark, it is probably legitimate. If you want to meet this sweet angel, please fill out an application!

Breed overview
Overview:
The "Chug," a delightful crossbreed of the Chihuahua and Pug, originated from the desire to combine the best traits of both beloved parent breeds. Physically, Chugs typically inherit a compact build, weighing between 10-20 pounds, with a short, smooth coat that comes in various colors, often displaying the Pug's characteristic wrinkled face and the Chihuahua's expressive eyes. Their temperament is generally a charming mix of the Pug's affectionate and playful nature with the Chihuahua's spirited and loyal disposition, making them wonderful companions. Chugs are highly adaptable, excelling in both apartment living and homes with families, including those with older children, though early socialization is key. While generally healthy, potential owners should be aware of predispositions to respiratory issues (due to their brachycephalic features), patellar luxation, and eye conditions, making regular veterinary check-ups important for their long-term well-being.
