I adore pugs! I rescued a little pug mix, Leonard, right before Christmas. My sister works at a vet office and a woman came in there with himand said "Something is wrong with his back leg, I don't want him anymore so put him down." My sis knew I was looking for a small dog since I live in an apartment and called me right away.
His back leg is a little underdeveloped but with all the exercise he gets from me he's doing prefectly well. He's the sweetest and cutest little man in the world.
I just hate people who just because they can't care for an animal or don't want the responsibility always think the answer is to put the animal to sleep. I love my little Leonard and wouldn't give him up for the world.
