Chico has been to the vet to have his microchip inserted, his Rabies vaccine and his blood and fecal testing done. The vet called me this morning to let me know that his fecal results are perfect and his blood work are absolutely perfect. He currently weighs 25 pounds and needs to get to 22 pounds to be at his ideal weight. He will need to go to the vet in another couple of weeks for the rest of his vaccines and then he should be done.

Chico is a real little character. He has a blanket that he sleeps with at night that he sucks on through the night. When he first starts to suck on the blanket though he likes to have an argument and then a discussion with the blanket until he gets it exactly where he wants it. He also insists on sleeping on the big bed at night (but unlike the other dogs in my house he is good at sharing the bed) and loves to participate in anything that we are doing.

He is doing really well with his housetraining but he still occasionally marks in the house. He is improving on this quickly as he settles in to the house but he still has a bit of a way to go.

He appears to have been well loved in his life before coming to Pugalug so he is a pretty happy and well-adjusted little man.

Here is Chico....He is a 9 year old fawn pug. He has been reported to be blind in one eye but from what I can tell so far he sees very well with his remaining eye. He has been with us since Wednesday night and is settling in nicely. So far he is absolutely fantastic with my resident dogs and wonderful with my little girls. He loves to sleep on the big bed at night and just loves to be near people. He was reported to be non-housetrained but so far we haven't had a single accident.

He has fur that is soft like a bunny rabbit and loves to be cuddled and talked to.

He will be going to the vet shortly for his check-up and we will have more to report then.
