About Pugsley’s Breed:
As a Black Lab mix, Pugsley brings all the classic traits labs are loved for—intelligence, loyalty, and a fun-loving spirit.

Pugsley already shows these qualities, along with a silly streak that makes him extra endearing.
Pugsley’s Story & Personality:
This sweet boy has had a small bump in the road with past skin issues, but he’s healthy now and his nose is healing beautifully. He’s almost fully housebroken, close to being crate trained, and sleeps through the night without accidents. Pugsley is all puppy—playful, bouncy, curious, and affectionate. He loves playing with other dogs, and even dishes out kisses to his canine friends.
Training is already underway: he can sit, loves treats, and will thrive with continued consistency and patience. With his short attention span, positive reinforcement will be the key. He’s goofy, fun-loving, and loyal—a pup who will grow into a wonderful lifelong companion.
Pugsley’s Ideal Home:
An active family or individual ready to keep up with his puppy energy
Someone committed to puppy training and structure
A home with a fenced yard or willingness to provide plenty of exercise
Children or other dogs who can match his playful energy
A patient, loving family who can guide him as he grows
