Are you ready to welcome the chubbiest, most lovable furball into your life? I’m Chubbs, and I’m all about the snacks! I’ll do just about anything for a tasty treat, and I’m always up for a snack negotiation. But don’t worry, I know how to balance it out with some extra strolls around the block (or two) to keep my figure in check!
Besides snacks, I absolutely love kids and cuddles. Family movie nights are my favorite—I’ll cozy up with you and the kiddos, sharing some popcorn (just a little, I promise!). I’m the perfect buddy for snuggles and playtime, making every moment together extra special.
I have met some other dogs in the past and have been content to hang out with another pup, but I’m not too keen on contact sports or rough play—I’d much rather chill and enjoy a tasty snack! Also, I can be a bit vocal at times when I play or when I get a little overly excited, I am a Beagle after all.
And here’s the icing on the cake (or should I say, the frosting on the pupcake?): I’m the sweetest boy around! I love making new friends everywhere I go, spreading my charm like sprinkles on a sundae!
Think you can handle the cuteness overload, snack negotiations, and endless cuddles? Then we might be the perfect match! Submit an application at the MAS website, I can’t wait to explore a whole new delicious, cuddly, and healthy adventure together!
