The story of Doug & DOry

"Doug’s biggest news yet…meet his little sister, Dory!!!

Dory is a 1 year-old rescue from Tiny Paws Pug Rescue. She was found after being dumped in a field in the Bay Area and was in need of a safe, happy and loving home. We feel like the luckiest people in the world to have her join our family and Doug cannot wait to be a big brother!

Doug has been telling us in his own way for a while now that he was ready and open to a dog sibling. Whenever we would petsit for friends Doug truly lit up and he’d get so sad when they left. After a very tough year as a family, we realized we were also ready to fill our home and hearts with more joy and love, and to help a pug in need was the cherry on top. And so, Dory entered our lives.

From the moment we saw her face from the rescue, it was an instant knowing…she was the missing piece to our family. Dory will now be so spoiled and loved not only by us, but hopefully all of you!

Let the adventures of Doug and Dory begin! ❤️🐾

Stay tuned for more about the story and a fundraiser for Tiny Paws Pug Rescue. They are angels doing amazing things and we are so grateful they brought her into our lives."
