Georgie
Fill out our
Adoption Application
Georgie was rescued from the
Pima County Animal Control. He
had very nasty, infected teeth,
and a grapefruit sized cyst on
his abdomen, which could have
been the reason he found himself
at the county shelter. We think
perhaps he was turned in because
his previous owners could not
afford a dental and tumor
removal. APARN has been actively
rehabilitating George with his
benign cyst removal, dental and
weight loss program.
George has a couple of Foster
Home knick names. First is
Gorgeous Georgus
and second is Hummer. George is
a big pug who came to us at 37
lbs and when he wants to get
from point A to point B, he puts
it in Hummer mode and mows over
anything in his
path.
George's weight loss program
started with the 1 lbs from the
cyst removal and he weights in
now at 33.5 lbs. He is on a
weight loss dog food and has 2
to 3 walks a day.
He is house broken but needs to
be taken out twice a day. He has
no marking issues
after a month of observation.
His new owner will need to keep
a watchful eye on him for
occasional rock chewing; his
foster has only caught him once.
He does not like the doggie door
but probably could be trained to
use one. The chain link in the
foster home dog run freaks him
out a bit, likely from the time
at animal control. When he is
inside chain link he starts
circling.
He gets along with other pugs
very well and understand basic
commands like
sit, no, down and off. He is a
wonderful dog and would make a
great companion for both a
family or a senior. He is a very
low maintenance dog.
Georgie's adoption fee is $200.
