Nacho is a happy, sweet, and silly 2-year-old pug who seems to love everyone he meets. He gets along well with other dogs and cats and especially loves people, including children. He enjoys cuddling with his people but is also perfectly capable of entertaining himself. He loves collecting toys, treats, and bones and carrying them into his kennel like a little canine magpie.
At 28 pounds, Nacho is a sturdy boy who enjoys long walks and adventures, but he's surprisingly calm in the house. After a few minutes of play, training, or a puzzle toy, he settles down nicely. He's also fantastic in public. On a recent brunch outing, he was an absolute angel.
Nacho was recently surrendered when his family realized they weren't able to provide the attention, consistency, and training he needed to thrive. His next family will need to continue building on the progress he's already making, including working on potty training and marking. He's comfortable in a crate and sleeps in one at night, but we're sure he'd love to join you in bed.
He's a quick learner and has already mastered "sit" and "touch" and is working on "stay" and "kennel up." His foster family has even taught him "kiss party," where he gives chin kisses when he hears kissy sounds. It's every bit as adorable as it sounds.
With consistency, continued training, and a family who will give him the structure and attention he needs, Nacho has all the makings of a wonderful companion. He's already a pretty great pug, and he's only going to get better!
Nacho is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and being fostered in Sacramento, CA. He's getting a hernia repaired on September 8 and will be ready to go home shortly after that.
