Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Pug / Mixed (short coat). Roscoe is a playful, affectionate puppy who loves his toys and snuggling on the couch. He's sweet, smart, silly, and always ready to make you smile. Energy Level? Medium to high. House trained? Yes. Describe how they are on leash? Roscoe loves going for walks. He enjoys leading the way but doesn't pull excessively. He can be a little hesitant when putting on his harness, but once it's on, he walks very nicely. Describe how they are with other dogs? Roscoe loves playing with other dogs in the home and enjoys having a canine playmate. He can become excited when seeing dogs while on leash, but once he's off leash and comfortable, he plays appropriately and has a great time. Have they been around cats or other animals? How were they? Roscoe has not been around cats or other animals, so we're unsure how he would do. Commands they know? Roscoe is a smart puppy who is eager to learn. He may already know "sit" and is picking up new skills quickly. What are their favorite things? Eating, playing with toys, going for walks, and cuddling on the couch or in any cozy spot. What do they need to work on? Like most puppies, Roscoe is still learning good manners. He sometimes tries to pick up "treasures" on walks and may sneak a sock if given the opportunity. With continued positive training and supervision, he'll continue to make great progress. How are they when left alone? How long have they been left alone? Roscoe may whine briefly when first left in his pen, but he settles down quickly and relaxes. He's continuing to build confidence with alone time. Where do they sleep? Roscoe sleeps comfortably in his crate. ​What is their ideal home? Roscoe would thrive in a home where he has plenty of opportunities to play, explore, and continue learning. He'd love another playful dog to romp around with, but he'd also do well with an active family committed to giving him daily exercise, enrichment, and lots of love. Once he's burned off his puppy energy, he's happiest curled up on the couch for snuggles. Roscoe is a sweet, silly, and intelligent puppy who is sure to bring joy, laughter, and plenty of love to his forever family. The Adoption fee is $325.

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.
