My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, shots current (DHPP, Bordetella and Rabies where applicable), dewormed, flea and tick treated, and microchipped.

Meet Buster: The Pug Who Ain’t Afraid of No Ghost (or Anything, Really)!

Looking for a puppy with serious pupparazzi potential? Meet Buster, the other half of the dynamic pug duo with his brother, Ghost. Together, they’re here to bust all your boredom, zoomies guaranteed. (No, we aren't looking to place them together. They need their own Haunted House) At just 10 weeks old, Buster’s motto is: 'Who you gonna call?' 'ME, for belly rubs!'

Buster operates in two modes: zoomie tornado or nap king. At 7 AM, he’s up and ready to start his day by turning on his turbo tail-wag and boing-boinging all over the place like a spring-loaded marshmallow. Breakfast is his first mission, which he tackles like it might disappear into another dimension (or, you know, Ghost’s tummy). Then, it’s time to roughhouse with Ghost because what’s better than a little sibling rivalry to kick off the day?

Mid-day, Buster hits the yard for a few laps of full-throttle zoomies, showing off his moves like he's practicing for the Puppy Olympics. His energy is contagious—whether he's chasing his brother or sneakily plotting his next surprise attack on a squeaky toy.

But don't let his playful spirit fool you—Buster has a bit of an adventurous streak. He likes to explore new territory like a pint-sized Indiana Bones, but don't worry, he always returns to check on his humans (and probably demand more belly rubs). He’s the kind of pup who will wag his way through life with a smile on his face and a mission to make everyone he meets fall in love with him.

Buster lives with his brother Ghost, a Goldendoodle, and a Maine Coon cat who may or may not be a ghost in disguise—either way, Buster’s cool with it. He gets along swimmingly with all of them, even letting the cat haunt the place without a single bark (so far, Buster’s bark remains a mystery... maybe he’s saving it for the big moment).

The greatest day of Buster's life? A sleepover with SIX kids! Buster turned into a lap-hopping, kiss-giving machine, moving from kid to kid like he was running a belly-rub charity. Let’s just say, when Buster’s around, he ain’t afraid of attention.

This goofy little pug is familiar with potty pads and crate-trained, although he sometimes gets too distracted by life to remember where the bathroom is. And while he may have a case of the zoomies, he eventually crashes hard—usually needing a little crate time to recharge his batteries.

Teething? Oh yeah, a bit. But don’t worry, your shoes are (probably) safe. Digging? Not yet, but who knows what mysteries Buster will dig up in the future. Barking? Haven’t heard it—he’s a silent little ghost-busting ninja so far.

If you’re ready for a pug with serious personality, endless zoomies, and a heart as big as his puppy-dog eyes, Buster’s your guy. He’s looking for a family that’s ready for kisses, belly rubs, and more playtime than you can handle. Plus, don’t forget—you get bonus snuggles from his twin brother, Ghost. Two for the price of one pug-tastic adventure!

Adopt Buster (or Ghost!) because when there’s something cute in your neighborhood... Who you gonna call? Buster!

Buster is an option for a home that had had a dog in the last 5 years. We believe our puppies need the most experienced homes so they can grow up to be good canine citizens. If there are children in the home they need to be 6 years or older.

More about this rescue

We are passionate folks who love dogs and love people! We strive to make the most appropriate match between human and canine. Because our dogs live in foster homes we know about their temperament and personality and therefore can help families and individuals decide if the dog is a good match or not. We are excited to help people find the right pooch for them and look forward to meeting great folks and welcoming them into the DPS Family.
