About Tickles

Tickles is a charming 5-year-old Pug who found himself roaming the streets before being welcomed by a retirement community. He wandered in and ended up enchanting the residents, who searched for his owners but found no one. Now at Pug Nation, Tickles is ready to leave that life behind and embrace the cozy retirement he deserves. With a gentle spirit and old soul, Tickles knows what he wants: a warm spot to curl up, loving companions, and the joy of leisurely walks followed by belly rubs. He thrives on human attention and loves to settle in beside you. While he's more low-key, he still enjoys playtime and nice strolls. Good with both dogs and people, Tickles gets along well with everyone he meets. This sweet boy doesn't seek the spotlight or a nonstop party. He simply wants to be included, cherished, and to have regular access to your lap. If you provide soft places for him to relax, pleasant walks, and the company of someone who enjoys petting, then Tickles is ready for a loving home. Reach out to learn more about him today!
