"I got Rubi when she was 7 weeks old. She weighed just about a pound and a half! I didn't know they came that small. Her mom is a 10-lb. Shih Tzu and her dad a 13-pound Pug. She is the sweetest little puppy in the world. She loves everyone and isn't afraid to tell them by slobbering them with puppy kisses. Anyone that will say "Hi" will get a little Rubi love. She is so happy-go-lucky, when she gets really excited or is playing she will snort like a little pig. It is hilarious. She even snores a little when she sleeps. She is so small, though that you can barely hear it. She is a very well-behaved puppy when you take her anywhere that she will sit very proper in your arms not saying a word. She is such a princess.
"Rubi gets along amazingly with other puppies, her brother Jules the Ragdoll cat, and with babies. She even has a 70-pound Rottweiler that she made friends with. The funniest is to watch her and her brother cat; they will wrestle and Jules will put her in a headlock and wash her ears and head—it’s hilarious!"

Lola the Pug-Zu at 11 months old— "She is a loving little dog, who is much loved and admired. We often get stopped by passersby asking what breed she actually is. She has fit into our family life with ease. Our son treats her as a little sister, although when she digs up the bulbs I've just planted in the garden to bury her little bones, I should be a little angry but I really see the funny side."

Moxie the Pug-Zu as a puppy at 2 months old—"Moxie was super shy, but she has let her personality come through in her first two weeks with us. She is sweet, sometimes hyper but super adorable. She follows me around wherever I go and when I'm on the computer, she sleeps on my feet. She now sits on command but has very bad separation anxiety."
