Bugs's Story

? Meet Bugs: The Spirited, Playful Pup Ready to Find His Forever Home! ?<br/>Who doesn’t love a goofy, spirited, playful pup? This describes Bugs in a nutshell! Bugs is a 2 1?2-year- old, 50 lb American Pit Bull Terrier, American Staffordshire Terrier, and Siberian Husky mix, with plenty of love and energy to share! He’s up to date on his shots, microchipped, and neutered, with a personality that’s as unique as his breed mix. After being pulled from the Toms River Animal Shelter prior to it’s closing, Bugs was placed in a board-and-train program to prepare him for this exciting next chapter. Now, he’s eager to find a dog-savvy forever family who can help him thrive!<br/>Personality & Positive Traits:<br/>Bugs is a sweet, playful pup who loves to do zoomies around the yard and chase after toys. He’s a quick learner and responds well to commands, especially when treats are involved—food motivation makes training a breeze! Although he has a bit of that stubborn bully breed spirit, with the right guidance, Bugs can really shine.<br/>Training & Behavior:<br/>• Impulse Control: Bugs is working hard on greeting manners and impulse control. He’s made<br/>significant progress in relaxing in social settings, but lifelong management is needed to ensure<br/>safety.<br/>• Muzzle Conditioned: For safe meet-and-greets, Bugs has been trained to wear a muzzle to<br/>help calm his nerves.<br/>• Quiet in Crate: He’s a calm boy in his crate, only making noise if an unfamiliar person passes<br/>by. He loves having a cozy blanket and hard chew toy to curl up with.<br/>Ideal Home:<br/>Bugs would do best in a dog-savvy home with no other pets, where his family understands his breed mix and is committed to continuing his training. He needs someone who can give him the structure and support he needs while also embracing his playful side. If you’re up for the challenge, Bugs will reward you with loyalty, affection, and plenty of fun!<br/>House Manners:<br/>? House-trained: He follows a solid potty schedule and only goes outside.<br/>? Calm in the House: Though he can get a little excited, he settles down nicely in his “place” to relax.<br/>Bugs is more than just a handsome face—he’s a loving, smart pup who deserves a family that can help him continue to grow. If you’re ready for an energetic, spirited companion who’ll keep you on your toes and bring endless joy, Bugs is waiting to meet you!
