Description
Dog Breed: Pug / Beagle / Mixed. Busta Rhymes was surrendered to a vet for euthanasia after becoming so overweight that he could barely walk. When Polka Dogz Pet Rescue took him in at 34 pounds, his journey to becoming the happy, active boy he was meant to be began. With aqua exercise, portion control, encouragement, and lots of love, Busta has lost an incredible 17 pounds—half his body weight! He is now running and playing around the house and yard and has come so far. Busta is a sweet, loving little guy with a big “I can do it!” attitude. He enjoys being with his people and other dogs, loves a lap, and definitely doesn’t want to be left out! He is food-motivated, so his diet will need to be carefully monitored. His back legs remain a little weak from carrying the extra weight for so long, and he cannot manage regular stairs. Busta has overcome so much and never gives up. Now, all he needs is a loving forever family to continue showing him just how wonderful life can be! PLEASE NOTE: All your current pets must be spayed/neutered, vaccinated and on heartworm prevention to adopt from Polka Dogz. We only adopt in Florida. All adoption fees go to help all the dogs in the rescue, some of which require extensive medical care. Thank you for caring for the greater good. Adoption fee is $300 and you can adopt me at .polkadogz.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Puggle, a charming cross between a Beagle and a Pug, originated in the 1980s as a designer breed in the United States, quickly gaining popularity for its unique blend of traits. Physically, Puggles typically sport a sturdy, muscular build with a short, smooth coat that comes in various colors, often resembling the Beagle's tri-color or the Pug's fawn with a black mask; their floppy ears and expressive eyes are unmistakable. Temperamentally, they are known for being friendly, affectionate, and generally good-natured, inheriting the Beagle's playful curiosity and the Pug's laid-back charm, though they can possess a stubborn streak. This makes them excellent family pets, adaptable to both houses with yards and apartment living, provided they receive regular exercise. While generally healthy, potential owners should be aware of predispositions to conditions like hip dysplasia, patellar luxation, and respiratory issues, common in their parent breeds, making responsible breeding and regular veterinary check-ups crucial for their well-being.
