Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Pug / Mixed (medium coat). Flip is one of our charming southern gentlemen who arrived in New Jersey from Louisiana on 3/21 and has been settling in beautifully with his foster family. After patiently waiting in a shelter, Flip completed heartworm treatment and is now healthy, happy, and ready for his forever home. Flip has a calm, affectionate nature and loves being close to his people—whether sitting in your lap, following you around, or relaxing at your feet. He also has a playful side and enjoys squeaky toys and games of fetch. He walks well on leash (though he’s not a fan of rain) and is crate-trained and mostly house-trained. Flip is very food motivated and may try to sneak human food, so some structure around mealtimes is helpful. He’s also still learning manners like what’s appropriate to chew and when to use his voice, but he responds well to guidance. At times, he can get a bit overstimulated, but settles nicely with a short break in his crate. Estimated to be 3–5 years old, Flip is a wonderful mix of loving, loyal, and playful—and will make an incredible companion for a lucky adopter. Flip is fixed, microchipped and up to date on vaccines. His adoption donation is $450. Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training prior to adoption. After all these dogs have been through they deserve a loving, committed home. How to Adopt Me!

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.
