Pug and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Frank | 2-Year-Old Pug/Jack Russell Mix

Frank is a fun, energetic little guy with a big personality packed into a small body! This brindle cutie is full of life, loves to stay busy, and is ready to find an active home that can keep up with his playful spirit.

Frank already knows several commands - sit, down, shake, off, and kennel up - and he's kennel trained, making him a great candidate for continued training and structure. He's a smart boy who enjoys learning and thrives when he has space to run and burn off energy.

Frank is:
Great with other dogs and loves the dog park
Wonderful with children and very tolerant
Knows multiple commands
Kennel trained
Active and playful

Frank is still working on potty training, so he'll need a patient adopter committed to helping him build a consistent routine. He can also be vocal when left alone and may bark, so a house (not apartment) environment will be the best fit for him.

He may need medication prior to vet visits to help keep him calm, and his future family should be comfortable continuing this care.

Frank is looking for an active home with space to run, people to play with, and a family willing to continue helping him learn and grow. If you're ready for a lively, loving companion who will keep life fun and exciting, Frank may be your guy!

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.

The pug is a small yet sturdy breed known for its charming personality and distinctive appearance. With a wrinkled face, curled tail, and expressive eyes, pugs are beloved for their affectionate nature and playful demeanor. Originating from China, these compact dogs have a smooth coat and require minimal grooming. Pugs are known to be excellent companions, suitable for owners of all ages due to their adaptable and social temperament.
