Our Featured San Diego, CA Partner:When we started, we were rescuing puggles from small shelters based in the Midwest as very few puggles were making their way into the shelters in San Diego and Los Angeles. In the 5+ years we've been involved with rescue this has changed dramatically and we can now only accept puggles from local shelters. Occasionally we accept puggles from owners who are no longer able to take care of them. Please contact us directly if you are looking for a rescue to whom you can surrender your puggle. If you would like assistance in rehoming your puggle but can keep the dog in the meantime, we can help with that process. .We only rescue pitties from shelters located Southern CA because we must be able to evaluate them directly before committing to them. We do not accept owner-surrender pit bulls, as there are too many at risk of dying in the shelters....Rehabilitating Souls.Some dogs come to us with physical ailments that need to be treated or fixed. Those are the easy things to do, they just take money.

Fix a broken leg, repair a cherry eye, treat demodectic mange...if we have the money, we won't shy away from a dog with any physical injuries.Where the real work comes in is with rehabilitating the dogs' hearts and souls. Whether we've gotten them from an animal shelter or directly from an owner, these dogs have no idea how they've ended up where they are and why they're suddenly with us. They don't understand getting lost and picked up by animal control, never to be reclaimed by their mom or dad. They don't understand divorce or financial hardship or allergies. Dogs are loyal until the end, and they don't understand any of the reasons humans come up with for giving away their beloved family member.To be sure, these dogs are lost, confused, sad, lonely, depressed, scared, uncertain...any adjective you want to put on someone who has just lost their home for reasons they can't comprehend. In addition, some of these dogs need additional training. Whatever the reason given for getting rid of a dog, usually the real reason is that the dog has never been trained and has no doggie manners.

If they're no longer a cute puppy, people don't often want to put up with their antics. So we use positive reinforcement training in order to teach them the basics of good dog behavior.Some dogs come to us very insecure. We don't pretend to know why; inadequate socialization as puppies, sheltered lives as adults, abusive owners...the list of possible explanations is endless really. These dogs go through basic obedience training; intensive socialization with the other dogs in the rescue and in the foster home; gradual introduction to their new outside environment through regular walks and other exercise; plus confidence-building through specialized, FUN training and activities. We really work hard to overcome whatever deficits they come to us with so they can go on to live healthy, happy, confident lives in their forever home.Teaching dogs how to be dogs - well-behaved, confident, happy dogs - is what we mean when we say we "rehabilitate souls." It's one of the most rewarding parts of what we do.

IntroductionAmong the most popular designer breeds of dogs, the Puggle has captured the love and affection of many people desiring a pet. The Puggle is a hybrid dog that is the result of crossing a Beagle with a Pug.

They are a very popular breed that is cute, energetic and loving. They can have a very sweet temperament, and are social, playful, and intelligent. Though Puggles are fairly high-maintenance dogs because of many possible health concerns, when it comes to having a pet there is nothing quite like a Puggle.Nature, Temperament, and The Lovey-Dovey Side of PugglesHybrid breeds account for nearly 50% of all mixed breed dogs in the United States. The Australian Labradoodle was the first hybrid breed created and accepted over a decade ago. But Puggles are among the most loved pets of hybrid breeds. Puggles are well known for their curious smell instincts. With an innate hyper nature, they will follow their noses whenever they pick up an interesting smell, which may end up with the Puggle chewing up everything in the house! In spite of this tendency, whether you want a buddy to go with you on hikes or walks in the park; a tracking dog to go hunting with you; or a guard dog to let you know if there are strangers lurking about, the Puggle is a spectacular animal.

Puggles are a good size for many people, weighing 15-20 pounds and growing to be 10-15 inches in height. Puggles come in black, beige, or silver, and have a black mask that distinguishes them from other hybrid breeds. Native to the United States, Puggles make a great addition to the family. The relaxed attitude of the Puggle is easy to fall in love with. This sociable pup has a personality all its own.A very important aspect of the Puggle breed is the absolute care which needs to be taken in managing its health. Many Puggles are known to inherit a genetic defect which results in a condition known as “puppy strangle.” This condition affects the skin of a Puggle, and if left untreated will spread down the body and eventually "strangle" and kill the Puggle. But with the right kind of care and antibiotics it is highly treatable. This condition begins as a kind of dermatitis on the Puggle's head and may be swollen and raw. Doing thorough research and finding a reputable breeder is important when buying a Puggle.Designer Care for Designer DogsThe Puggle breed needs much more care than many other breeds and the quality of food and water given to the dog is highly important.

Health issues can arise from improper care, not to mention accidents. Grooming the Puggle is also important to avoid infection from ticks and other kinds of skin problems. Care should be taken to use mild shampoos which have fewer harmful chemicals since these dogs have very sensitive skin. Proper nutrition is essential to the Puggle’s growing healthy bones and muscles. It is a good idea to consult your vet concerning the nutritional needs of these very special little dogs.Puggles tend to be quite patient and endearing with children. Nevertheless, as with all smaller dog breeds, parents should supervise playtime to ensure that pets aren't accidentally harmed by unknowing little hands.The coats of these hybrids are short, so bathing is quite easy and only needed once or twice a month. Between baths, make sure to clean inside the folds of wrinkled skin to remove accumulated debris, or else bacterial build-up can cause a foul odor. Shedding is also part of life with a Puggle, but regular brushing will help reduce the problem.

Though this breed needs lot of physical activity to remain healthy and happy, care should be taken not to overdo it, as this may cause the dog to get very stressed which can affect its health. Ears should be checked quite frequently by your vet to guard against infection. Puggles carry genetics from both parent breeds, therefore they can be prone to all the same health concerns to which Beagles and Pugs are susceptible. However, Puggle breeders believe that cross-breeding actually dilutes the potential for many of these health problems.Puggles are sensitive to extreme climates and can catch colds easily. Because of the short muzzle and poor airways, it can develop breathing problems. For this reason, they have a tendency to wheeze and snore, and these tendencies can be aggravated if the dog over-exerts itself. The Pug breed has a healthy appetite and so does the Puggle, so overeating can become a problem, and diet must be watched and managed. Puggles are a generally healthy and resilient breed that can reach the age of 14 to 15 years.
