🌟 Meet Chili, the adorable middle-aged puggle mix, approximately 8 years young! At about 23 lbs, he’s the perfect little buddy for anyone who wants to add a spark of joy and a sprinkle of patience to their life. After spending too long in a kennel, Chili is ready to embrace the warmth of a loving home. 🏡 Chili has a heart full of happiness and a tail that wags like he’s got a secret—and you know what? He does! This little fella is working on his confidence, and with the right canine friend by his side, he’s sure to blossom. Ideally, he should be adopted into a home that has another friendly dog, as he finds strength and comfort in their company. 🌈 While he may be a bit lower energy overall, don’t let that fool you! Chili loves to bounce around the house with joy, and he’s perfectly content relaxing on a comfy dog bed or, oh yes, a soft couch. His life so far has been a bit of an adventure in shyness, so he needs an adopter who is kind-hearted, patient, and ready to take the time necessary to help him truly shine. 🌻 A gentle approach will open up his world, and he’ll eventually come out of his shell to reveal his charming personality. He hasn't yet met any kids, but it’s important they understand that Chili might prefer his space. Quick movements may send him scurrying away to hide, but lucky for him, he gets along just fine with cats! 🐱 Also, he's currently mastering the art of leash walking, so he’ll need a fenced yard for now, where he can enjoy the freedom of play without pressure. If you’re looking for a chill buddy to spend time with, to help build confidence and share quiet moments, then Chili is your guy! This sweetheart is eager to find his forever home, and he hopes to meet someone who will see the beauty in his gentle spirit. *Don’t wait! Apply to adopt Chili through the Buddy App today!* 💖
