Welcome to Ruff Start, Gravy! This sweet Pug Terrier mix is a dog with a ton of love and personality—and the cutest big ears, which one of our volunteers accurately described as belonging to a "bat that flies in the sky!" A Heart for Kids: Gravy adores children! She has clearly been loved by kids before and thrives on their affection. She's perfect for older, sturdy children who love to be toppled on and hugged, but she's too enthusiastic for tiny kids she might accidentally barrel into. High-Energy Play: Gravy has a ton of playful, intense energy that she needs help directing properly. She's looking for a dedicated owner who can channel that enthusiasm through training and plenty of outdoor activity! (Check out the darker photos—even after a walk, she's ready for more!) The Quiet Home Rule: Gravy is friendly but vocal, especially when settling down in her crate. She requires a single-family home (no shared walls) until she learns to calm herself more quickly. The Other Stuff: Gravy is great in the car, settles in her crate, and has shown minimal interest in cats, though her intense energy means her interactions should be supervised/tested carefully. She may initially show a little fear in new situations, but her play drive quickly takes over! Gravy is from a local impound. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.

We cannot guarantee the breed or size they will be full grown.* If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.
