About Puggles

Meet Puggles — 12 pounds of pure curiosity and playful charm! This 1-year-old Chihuahua mix is full of energy and happiness. He thrives on exploring, loves to chase toys, and is always on the lookout for his favorite human's next move. Puggles enjoys being close to his person but prefers to remain an explorer rather than a full-time lap dog. He’ll jump into your lap for a quick check-in but is often off to investigate something new. His enthusiasm for other dogs is infectious; he’d truly thrive in a home with a playful canine companion who can help boost his confidence. At first, Puggles might be a bit skittish around new people, sometimes barking until he feels you’ve passed his approval test. Once he’s comfortable, he’ll approach you on his own terms. He loves to observe the world from his window lookout and generally stays quiet unless he deems it necessary to alert the household. This little guy would do best with dog-savvy kids who can respect his space. He’s house trained, confident, and ready to find his forever home where he can explore and engage with both toys and other pets. If you’re looking for a tiny adventure buddy with a playful spirit, Puggles is ready to meet you! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
