About Nugget

Nugget is a small dog with a big personality and an even bigger love for snuggling. He enjoys fetch, squeaky balls, blanket burritos, and tug-of-war with his beloved Snoopy stuffed toy, which will accompany him to his new home. When Nugget first arrived, he was unsure about people, but he's been gaining confidence day by day. He's learning to feel safe in his crate and is adjusting to walking on a leash. This brave little guy needs a patient family that will help him meet the world at his own pace. In return, he’ll offer endless kisses, plenty of laughs, and the loyalty of a companion who wants nothing more than to be close to his loved ones. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
