Description
Dog Breed: Pug (short coat). Adorable senior pug Johnny arrived at an animal shelter in northern Indiana with his best friend June. They were brought in as strays, so we don’t really know too much about their past. His foster can tell you that Johnny was loved by someone in his past because he is the sweetest little guy! Johnny LOVES people, naps, and laps! All this little man wants is to be with a human, or his friend June! Johnny had a dentistry and had 15 teeth extracted. He really didn’t have very many left in his mouth in the first place, so either soaked kibble or wet food is best for him! Johnny’s bloodwork was all good and the veterinarian said he was in good health. Johnny has a weak back end and therefore has a hard time on slippery floors, and he can’t really tell that he has to go “number two” until it is actually happening. He loves to go potty outside, but sometimes has accidents in the house. His foster has been using a belly wrap on him which is working great. Johnny is sweet as pie, but can be a little jealous of his foster's other pugs if they try to sit on her lap while he is sitting with her. It seems that he only has eyes for June. He does just fine with other dogs around the house. It’s just the lap sharing that makes him express his objections! Johnny hangs in an exercise pen with June while his foster is at work and does fine. If you are looking for the bestest snuggle bunny pug, Johnny is going to be perfect for you! *Bonded with June and must be adopted together*

Overview:
The Pug, a charming and ancient breed, boasts a fascinating history believed to originate in China as early as 206 BC. Known for its distinctive flat, wrinkled face, large, expressive eyes, and tightly curled tail, the Pug's compact, muscular build is instantly recognizable. Despite their somewhat serious expression, Pugs are famously friendly, playful, and affectionate companions, often described as "clowns" due to their comedic antics. Their relatively low exercise requirements and adaptability make them excellent pets for apartment dwellers and devoted family members, thriving on human companionship. However, prospective owners should be aware of certain health considerations, primarily their susceptibility to respiratory issues due to their brachycephalic (short-nosed) structure, as well as potential eye problems and joint conditions. With proper care and attention, the Pug offers years of unwavering loyalty and delightful companionship.
