Meet Sugar, a 2-year-old, 8 lb. Morkie with a name that perfectly matches her sweet and spunky personality! Petite but bursting with energy, Sugar is playful, affectionate, and loves to be involved in every part of her family’s life.
Why She’s the Ultimate Tiny Companion
🐾 Age: 2 years | Weight: 8 lbs
🏡 House-trained (~80%) and crate-trained
🐶 Good with smaller dogs (slow introductions recommended)
👧 Best with older, respectful children due to occasional resource guarding
💨 High energy—playful, curious, and full of personality
❤️ Lap lover and cuddle queen, happiest when close to her humans
🚶 Great on leash—ready for neighborhood walks or outings
🛡 Fence required (very secure, ideally 6 feet)—she’s a talented escape artist
What She’s Looking For
✔️ Adult-only household or home with older, respectful kids who understand her boundaries
✔️ Dog-savvy home to manage her selective eating, resource guarding, and strong attachment
✔️ Family willing to include her in daily life—outings, snuggles, and adventures
✔️ Consistent potty routines and supervision to support her house training
Sugar may be small, but she has a huge heart and plenty of sass. She loves her humans, enjoys playtime with doggy friends, and thrives when included in everything her family does. She is selective about her food (salmon kibble and Greek yogurt are favorites) and needs a secure, structured home to match her spirited personality.
Sugar is fully vetted and ready for her next chapter—could you be the one to let this playful, affectionate little firecracker sweeten your life? Apply today at Crisis Dogs NC.
