I had a happy life with my only owner until she got sick with Alzheimer’s.  Her family couldn’t take care of her and give me the care I needed too, so they asked Colorado Pug Rescue to find me a new family.  I was a little bewildered at first, but my foster family is making me feel right at home with yummy food, short walks, toys to play with and laps to sit on and my very own dog bed. Sometimes the cranky old pug that lives here too barks at me but I just give him space and ignore him.  I am friendly with other dogs (non-cranky ones) and children.  I met a cat at the vet clinic and didn’t bark or lunge at it but I’ve never lived with one.  I am very good natured, give lots of kisses and love to be right next to my foster mom and dad.  I really would prefer a home where my humans are with me most of the time.  I have been crate trained and like to sleep in it at night.  I went to obedience class a long time ago, so I’m a little rusty on my commands but I will sit if you give me a treat!  My foster family has discovered that I’m kind of deaf (they thought it was “selective” hearing at first) but other than a little arthritis in my back legs I’m pretty healthy for being 11 years old.  The arthritis doesn’t slow me down much and I take glucosamine every day for it.  I’m a pretty wonderful pug with just one problem…I mark in the house occasionally.  Even though I get along great with other dogs, sometimes I get in a marking competition with them (inside and out) so it might be better if I am an only dog.  If left unattended, I should stay in my crate where I feel safe or wear a bellyband so I can’t make any mistakes.

My foster mom thinks Bandit is a perfect name for me…she says I will steal your heart when you meet me!
