It's been my experience that people want puppies and kittens, not dogs and cats. When their pet grows up, they get bored. I know a man who likes babies, not kids. When his kids get older, he gets bored and wants his wife to get pregnant again! I feel so bad for this little guy. I just love pugs. If you post on the Dog section, those PTers can probably help you. Here's wishing you success and bless you for taking him in. At least he'll get to know some human kindness and love.

Blessings,
Mary
