I just turned 6 years old in August, and I'm a proud Velcro pug looking for my next forever family. If you're searching for a loyal companion who wants to be by your side through everything, I'm your guy. I'm sweet, smart, resilient, and very attached to my people. I've been through a lot recently after losing my beloved human mom, but I've shown everyone what a brave little pug I am and am thriving in my foster home.
I previously lived with three other dogs and am doing great with the young pug in my foster home. I enjoy playing with toys, especially my favorite little tennis ball. I'll chase it, carry it around, and play fetch for as long as you're willing to throw it! I also love car rides, walks nicely on a leash, and have the softest coat you've ever felt.
When playtime is over, I'm all about the snuggles. I don't just enjoy sleeping with my humans—I firmly believe that's where I belong! Being close to my people makes me happiest, so I'd love a home where someone is around most of the time.
Like most pugs, I'm very food motivated and eat a little too enthusiastically, so I use a slow feeder. I'm neutered and currently wear my "fancy pants" because I still have an occasional tendency to mark, but I'm improving with a consistent schedule and could continue learning good house manners with patient guidance. The good news is that I'm smart and eager for snacks, which makes me a great student!
If you're looking for a loving little shadow who will follow you from room to room, keep you company on every adventure, and snuggle up beside you every night, I can't wait to meet you.
Koda was recently diagnosed with a low grade mast cell that was successfully removed. As a result, he will need to be monitored for any future bumps that may arise. Koda also has spearation anxiety. He is being treated with daily fluoxetine to help him better manage his worries. For this reason, Koda must be adopted by someone who is home most of the day, or works from home. Short periods alone or with another dog should be ok as he is on his medications and getting settled, but he will not do well alone for long periods of time. Koda is being fostered in Boise, ID.
