Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Pug / Mixed (medium coat). Weight 16.4# Hi, I'm Pac-man! I'm a special boy who came from a chaotic home. As it turns out, I'm not a fan of that type of lifestyle--I prefer a quiet, calm space, ideally where I can snuggle up into your lap and feel secure. It has taken me a while to trust my friends at the shelter. My new family will need to be understanding of my needs and be patient as I adjust to a new environment. My home will need to have adults only. Staff are unsure how I'll feel about cats, but they don't think I would mind them. Staff will give you tips on how to properly introduce us if you have any felines in your space. FWACC reserves the right to place me in my best fit home.

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.
