Our foster pug, Abigail, has returned to the rescue group for more training. In her place is Polly. Polly is a 6 year old female who is very loving AND fully house trained.
This experience should be a good example to all prospective dog owners that just because a dog looks sweet and is basically good natured, does not mean she will be a good match for you. Abigail was very sweet, but she was extremely skittish and loved to poop in the kitchen and pee in the office. These are not good traits for a dog to have in OUR house. With constant monitoring and patience, she could have been trained, but we aren't inclined to go through that right now.
The pug rescue still needed out help, so I brought home Polly. She's much more socialized. She and Jake are already best friends. It doesn't hurt that they also look almost like twins. In the pictures, Polly is the one with the pink harness.
Have a great week!
