Molly Sue (#179) is wonderful!! It didn't take very long at all for her tail to be up and wagging. She is very laid back and sweet. It appears that she is housebroken too, because she goes to the door. She is a plus size girl so she is going to put on a diet. She is used to eating anytime and was being given table scraps...so she is very cushy.

She is slightly blind, but that does not stop this little girl from getting around. CC is slightly older than her foster moms senior pugs, and she does circles around them, so do not let her age scare you. She is perfectly healthy and very active for a senior pug.

Willie is 'legally blind' - he has very little sight due to an old eye problem that was neglected.  He has arthritis and bad teeth. Willie had 10 teeth when we got him and had 5 really bad ones pulled. It was obvious his mouth was a source of pain for this sweet boy. Due to his lack of teeth his bottom jaw has started to deteriorate. This doesn't slow him down though!
