Meet Blu (#A5770508)—a 10-year-old Chihuahua/Pug mix (a “Chug”) who may be small in size, but absolutely refuses to live life like it’s optional. This little guy is a confident, spunky senior with personality to spare and just the right amount of sass to keep life interesting.
He’s an owner surrender, but don’t let that fool you—Blu didn’t lose his spark. He’s still very much the main character in every room he enters.
Why He’s the Ultimate Small Dog With Big Energy
🐾 Age: 10 years old
🐶 Breed: Chihuahua x Pug mix (“Chug”)
⚖️ Size: Small but mighty
💖 Confident, quirky, and full of personality
🎾 Medium energy
🏠 Potty trained
😄 Silly, entertaining, and people-focused
👑 Fully believes he is in charge
Blu is the kind of dog who doesn’t ask for permission—he sets the tone. He enjoys attention, loves being involved, and carries himself like a tiny ruler overseeing his kingdom.
He’s also potty trained and still has a playful, engaged energy that makes him fun to be around, especially for someone who appreciates a dog with opinions.
What He’s Looking For
✔️ A home where he can be the only dog
✔️ Someone who enjoys a confident, independent personality
✔️ A person willing to provide structure and consistency
✔️ A calm environment where he can rule peacefully
✔️ A family who appreciates small-dog charisma
Blu would thrive as the center of attention—no sharing required. He’s happiest when he knows exactly where he stands (top of the household hierarchy, in his opinion).
The Reality (and the Charm)
He hasn’t had much formal training, but with patience and routine, he can absolutely continue to learn. What he already brings is a strong personality, comedic timing, and a lifetime guarantee of entertainment.

Blu isn’t trying to be everyone’s dog. He’s looking for his person—the one who laughs at his sass, respects his rules (most of them), and gives him the attention he fully believes he deserves.
