Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Pug / Mixed (medium coat). Hi, I'm Moose! I am a loving pup looking for my new home. I can be a little shy at first, but once I get to know you I am affectionate and sweet. I have a good history around other dogs. I came into the shelter with my friend Paulie and we would love to go home together, but it is not required. I like to go one walks and play with chew toys. I can't wait to meet my new family!

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.
