Description
Dog Breed: Pug / Chihuahua / Mixed. Meet Shrew — the Tiny Explorer With a Big Voice Shrew is a 4‑month‑old Pug Mix with a face that everyone could love and a personality that’s just as unforgettable. He’s the confident-but-cautious member of his little crew — the first to tiptoe into new spaces, sniff new things, and check out what’s going on. But if something startles him, you’ll hear his signature yell before he comes sprinting right back to you for safety and reassurance. This boy is equal parts brave adventurer and snuggly baby. He loves people, and thanks to his young age, he’s great with kids, cats, and dogs. Shrew is the kind of kitten who wants to be part of whatever you’re doing, whether that’s exploring the house, playing with toys, or curling up after a long day of being adorable. If you’re looking for a puppy who’s curious, expressive, and deeply people‑oriented, Shrew is ready to follow you home — loudly, proudly, and with his whole little heart. Because Shrew is a high‑energy, still‑developing Puppy, he will do best in a home that can keep up with his activity level, play needs, and ongoing socialization. We are looking for adopters who are comfortable with a very active youngster and able to provide consistent interaction, enrichment, and supervision. Shrew's adoption fee is $350, which helps support their medical care and preparation for adoption.

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.
