Description
Dog Breed: Pug / Beagle / Mixed (medium coat). Joey is a 10 month old male Puggle (pug x beagle) who is looking for an active but patient home in which he can thrive. Joey weighs in at approximately 22 pounds and is pretty much full grown. Joey found himself displaced due to various health and other issues in the home. Puggles can be very active little dogs, and he is no exception. When it became too hard to make sure all his needs were being met, his caretaker did the right thing by reaching out for a more appropriate placement. Joey is such a good boy - he bonds strongly with people, and while he can take a moment to warm up, once he thinks you are ALLLLLLRIGHT! than you are one of his folks. Joey has lived with other dogs but was described as being 'annoying' to them. Since he is a puppy still, it's likely that some of that came from being a puppy, and to adult dogs, puppies are almost always 'brats'! Puggles can also be pretty non stop when it comes to playing and daily life - they're full of busy activity! This means he would do best with a dog who is close to him in age as well as of a similar energy level. Meet and greet will be absolutely required! He has been around kids of different ages and has done well with them, but as with other dogs, meet and greet is required. He hasn't lived with cats, but has shown a willingness to chase them mercilessly when he sees them outside - which isn't abnormal for almost any dog. Things change in the outdoors! We think he can be worked with in the home to behave with cats who are used to dogs in the home. Joey was mostly house trained in his former home, but did have issues with marking in the house. He has since been very recently neutered, and we are hoping that the surgery, along with some remedial House Training 101, will prove that Joey knows better and knows that outdoors in the place to go. He will need to be crated when left alone in the home, no exceptions, until he learns. The alternative is pee squirts around your entire house and nobody wants that. Joey can ride in the car without getting sick, but the whole practice makes him a bit anxious, so if you travel a lot, it may take him a little time to relax into it. We definitely cannot guarantee that he is ever going to be a spectacular ride along partner! He loves water but isn't a huge one for toys - until maybe his new family can finally find THE ONE TOY that he has been waiting for his whole life! Some dogs do learn to play with toys as time goes on, and Joey might just be one of those pups. Most importantly, Joey is a bit of a runner. If he gets out of the house off lead, he will RUN. The whole neighborhood. And he loves the chase. Not an easy one to catch because WHAT A FUN GAME. For this reason, we will be looking for a home that has a PHYSICAL FENCE in order for Joey to stay safe. If you do not have a fence, this is NOT the dog for you. If you are interested in Joey, we are currently accepting applications for him.

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.
