About Pugsley Addams

Pugsley Addams is a 4-year-old, fawn-colored French Bulldog/Chihuahua mix who has really earned his spot as a loyal companion. He weighs around 24 pounds and is both crate-trained and housetrained—he’ll happily sleep on your bed or quietly relax by your side. Walks are a mixed bag for Pugsley; he's great on a leash unless another dog passes by, when his past comes through and he’ll lunge or act out defensively. Because he’s still working through these experiences, Pugsley will do best as the only dog in the home. His foster says he’s the definition of a sidekick, and he forms a strong bond once he settles in. He’s not the best candidate for homes with children under 10, and first-time dog owners will likely feel overwhelmed—he needs someone with experience who can help him feel safe and learn calmer ways to handle the world. Pugsley appreciates having a backyard where he can stretch his legs without running into dogs he doesn’t know. He gets along with cats but really isn’t up for sharing his home with other dogs. If you’re patient and willing to give him a real shot, you’ll find a dog who is deeply loyal and would thrive in an understanding environment. Fun fact: Pugsley was born on October 14, making him a Libra—he’s all about finding his balance. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
