Description
Dog Breed: Pug (short coat). Delmer is a 3 year old Pug, he weighs 23 pounds. Delmer was found during the recent horrible ice storm. We got him to the vet as fast as we could. He is lucky he didn't freeze but he is a strong boy. Delmer does have whipworms, more than they have ever seen in a dog that small, he is being treated for them now. Delmer is a sweet boy and wants to just love on everyone. He needs work with house training, he will mark in new places. Once he gets somewhere stable and has training he will be a perfect little boy. If you are interested in fostering or adopting Delmer please fill out an application from our website.

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.
