Pugsley - Pug Dog Available for Adoption in Cedarburg, Wisconsin

Meet Pugsley

Pugsley arrived in Wisconsin on transport on 5/29 from a kill shelter in Georgia and is settling into his foster home in the Milwaukee area. He is a happy, friendly little guy who is ready to find his forever home.

Pugsley is approximately 1 year old and came from a shelter in Georgia after being surrendered when his previous owners could no longer afford to have a dog. Despite the changes in his life, he has remained incredibly sweet, social, and loving. Pugsley has a sleek black coat and currently weighs about 20 lbs.

Pugsley is adjusting well to foster life and has already shown what a great companion he is. He loves to play with other dogs, enjoys spending time with kids, and is friendly with cats too. He does well in his crate and is doing decent walking on the leash. Like many young dogs, he will still benefit from continued structure, consistency, and guidance as he settles into his new home and routine. He would do well as a family dog or would be fine in an apartment. He really loves other dogs so would benefit from another dog in the home. He is scheduled to be neutered 6/8.
