Description
Dog Breed: Pug / Beagle / Mixed. Gordo is a lovable Puggle/Chihuahua mix looking for a patient, understanding home. He came to us after his previous family had to make the difficult decision to rehome him due to a family member's allergies.Gordo is a very sweet boy who can be a little shy when meeting new people, but once he feels comfortable, his affectionate personality shines through. He is still working on his house-training skills and will need a family willing to help him continue learning with patience and consistency.In his previous home, Gordo lived happily with his father dog and did well with children. Because he can be timid at first, he would likely do best in a home with older, respectful children. He has not been introduced to new dogs since coming into our care, and he has not lived with cats.With his hound background, Gordo enjoys following his nose, so a securely fenced yard would be ideal to give him a safe place to explore and play. If you're looking for a gentle, loyal companion who just needs a little time to blossom, Gordo may be the perfect addition to your family.

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.
