Dog Details

Cadbury is a darling little Frenchie/Pug mix with a soft, sensitive heart and the cutest playful streak. She may be a bit cautious when first meeting new people or entering new situations, but give her a little time and you’ll see her true personality shine. Once she feels safe, Cadbury turns into a snuggly, affectionate companion who loves to curl up close, play with her toys, and zoom around the yard with pure joy.

She’s a fun mix of sweet and silly, one minute she’s your quiet little shadow, and the next she’s showing off her goofy side with zoomies or a game of fetch. Cadbury loves exploring outside and would be happiest in a home where she can safely enjoy the outdoors at her own pace. She is both leash trained and crate trained, and she already knows “sit.” She has a genuine desire to please and is continuing to build confidence and learn her manners with gentle, patient guidance.

Because she’s still figuring out the world, Cadbury can get a little jumpy or mouthy when she’s nervous or excited, so she’ll do best with an adopter who can continue working with her in a calm, positive way. She can also be sensitive to loud noises and busy environments, so a quieter home will help her feel secure and allow her personality to fully blossom. She is sensitive to extreme heat and cold, so her future home should be mindful of keeping her comfortable in all seasons.

Cadbury does not require another dog in the home, but she thrives on human connection and will happily bond closely with her people. She’s equal parts lap dog and playful pup — affectionate, curious, and full of puppy energy with a gentle, loving core.

Cadbury is a sweet little soul who just needs a bit of patience and understanding to become someone’s perfectly devoted companion.

Please note that some of our dogs are obtained from shelters, surrendered to our care, or released from breeders. Each animal's bio is based on our experience of the animal within our care, an educated guess based on physical characteristics, temperament and information shared. Each dog receives basic grooming when coming into rescue, but for some dogs they have not received grooming attention until recently and grooming may be required shortly after adoption. This will be at the adopter’s expense, so we encourage you to research the breed and be prepared for grooming expenses. Underdog cannot guarantee hypoallergenic or non-shedding qualities of any dogs in our rescue. Some of the animals come from situations where they are lacking experience in a home and confidence in humans. In turn, they require another companion dog and/or a fenced in yard in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit. Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home. 

Bulldogs, pugs, and Boston terriers, Brussels Griffons, Pekingese and others are a member of the Brachycephalic breed and therefore have a host of health issues that may arise.  Because these dogs are new into our rescue, health issues in the future may arise that we are not aware of.  Some of these issues are allergies, eye issues, yeast infections, interdigital cysts, slipped disks in their back, breathing problems, among a host of others that can occur at any time or when seasons change. While breed experience is not required, we encourage you to thoroughly research the breed and its financial, medical, and environmental needs to be sure this breed is a good fit for you and your family.  It is estimated that the average brachycephalic breed owner spends $2,000 per year on medical needs. In addition to other surgeries, this dog may have had surgery on their nares and soft palate to improve the quality of their breathing.  This will be partially reflected within her adoption fee.

These breeds are one of the most expensive dogs to own, maintain, and rescue and our adoption fees reflect such expenses.  The application process for these breeds usually moves quite quickly as they are a popular breed, so we ask that adopters do research and be prepared for adoption at the time you submit your application.  They are happy, goofy, playful characters and we are excited you are taking the first steps into rescuing one!  

This dog requires a separate application and an application fee.  This fee must be paid within 24 hours or your application will be considered void.    We will not review or contact applicants that have not completed the payment portion. This dog requires a Bulldog Application.  All applications will be responded to within 5 business days, after receipt of the application fee.  Please understand that paying the fee does not guarantee you will be approved to adopt the bulldog. Our goal is place bulldogs in homes that are suited for their individual needs. You may be willing and able to provide a great home, but if it doesn’t meet the specific needs of the bulldog, we will not approve your application.
