pooch

A Southern California couple who lost their French bulldog have gone to great lengths over the last two months to find the pooch, resorting to bloodhounds, animal psychics, cash rewards and door-to-door canvasing.

Then, in her mid-20s, after fostering a pooch with serious behavioral issues, she decided to attend a training school specializing in service and therapy dogs and companion pets.

The five-year-old pugese – a pug and Chinese crested cross – was cast as "Dogpool" after finding fame last year when she was crowned the ugliest pooch in a national contest last year.

Last year, that honor went to Messi, the “Anatomy of a Fall” pooch.

Morkun claims his building has the largest dog run downtown that tenants may want to use late at night instead of taking their pooches down to the sidewalks outside.
