Allister Pug Alvin, TX

Allister (6 years old) is as perfect as pugs come. He never has accidents, takes himself through a dog door even in the rain. He does not bark and he is the most chill pug I have ever seen. He never destroyed anything in my house and he was in fact enjoying the same privileges as my own dogs week 2 of his stay with us because he adjusted so well. He is super velcro though and will get up and follow his person everywhere. If he's outside he has no interest in running off, he just wants to be with his people.

Unfortunately, Allister does have very narrow nasal turbinates which means his nose is more or less non-functional and basically just blows bubbles all the time. He sleeps with a toy in his mouth to keep his airways open which is super smart and precious at the same time. We do not know how this will affect him long term because this condition is very rare. Since no surgery is currently an option for him and might not be for years depending on how the procedure evolves, he can be adopted out as special needs to a family that has a good understanding of dogs with medical needs. He is on no medications currently and has shown no decline in the 6 months we have had him but we cannot predict the future for him.

I would ask you to consider this treasure of a dog despite his medical condition. If I had any more room in my household, he would be the one I'd keep. He is the sweetest, funniest most loyal little dog and deserves the best.
