PAISLEY - PUG / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Pug / Mixed (short coat). It's pretty impossible not to love Paisley! Paisley is estimated to be around 1.5 years and is a darling girl eager for attention. She is quick to win your heart with her big brown eyes and bubbly personality. She wants to be everyone's friend and is a great cuddle buddy. Paisley is fully grown and weighs about 14lbs. Paisley came to us from a local shelter after she was found as a stray. She was found with three other pug mixes, all of which went to other rescues. Based on her behavior, we think she was kept in her crate a lot and wasn't trained or socialized. She has really blossomed in foster care and can't wait to find her fur-ever home. Paisley has the goofy and sweet personality that all pug lovers adore. She is a good mix between playful and couch potato and is happiest when she can be with her people. She recently came to an adoption event at a UCD women's soccer game and loved getting all the attention from anyone who came by. Paisley is still learning all of her basic manners and needs a family committed to helping her learn. Paisley loves other dogs and has done well living with dogs of all sizes. She has also done well living with dog-savvy cats. Paisley loves kids and could be a wonderful addition to a family with kids 5 years and older. Paisley is still working on her housetraining. She has been harder to train than most dogs, probably due to being punished in her previous life. She needs a family who can be patient with her and expect lots of accidents while she is adjusting and learning. Paisley is crate-trained and is happy to hang out in her crate when home alone. She has done well being crated overnight, or sleeping in bed with you if you let her. Due to being a pug mix, Paisley can be prone to some breed-related health issues. We encourage anyone interested in adopting her to first familiarize themselves with the health issues commonly seen in pugs and pug mixes. We highly recommend her new family to invest in pet insurance. Paisley is such a wonderful little girl, and whoever adopts her is going to be very lucky to have a pup as sweet as her.
