Hi! I’m roux!

Roux is a fun, lively, sweet, and loving young dog. He loves being around his human, but isn't always in your space; he just wants to know you're there. He's playful and curious but not aggressive. And he’s not as crazy about food like other pugs are!

Roux is unique - all white with dark brown spots near his snout, with his left ear up and his right ear flopped down. 

Loves to be around his humans 

You’ll know he’s ready for bed when he digs & burrows under the blanket and finds a spot by his human's legs.

Gentle when given treats

Loves to play with plushies

He is almost potty-trained! He still wears a belly band to prevent marking. He’s only had accidents when he's left alone (could be due to anxiety). He pees when taken out for walks and poops after meals on the patio.

He has separation anxiety. When left alone, he will bark and howl for 15 minutes or until he gets tired. Desensitization/ other training would help.

He’s not crate trained. He’ll cry and be anxious when in a crate and on car rides.

He doesn’t bark excessively but will bark in the mornings, when humans return home, and when he sees his harness. He is sensitive to noise and will bark at unusual noises or when he hears other dogs bark.

With other dogs, he can be more dominant, but mainly when anxious or excited. When calm and comfortable, he doesn't show those traits around his foster dog brother.

He gets along with other dogs.

He is leash-aggressive and will need training to stay calm when he sees other dogs on the street.

Roux would fit in well in a home with a human who is willing to train or work with his anxieties, who won't be away all day, and who appreciates his energy. He would do fine in a home with other dogs as long as their personalities blend well together, but we can see him being happy as an only dog as well.
