The Newport Beach Animal Shelter wasn’t exactly looking for a mascot in Oct. 2019, when officers located a tiny stray female Chihuahua-pug mix hobbling around on nearby Mesa Drive but that’s exactly what they got.
There was something not quite right about the little pooch, whose front paws angled outward in a Charlie Chaplin-like stance, turning her walk into a crooked and prancing gait, but they took her in and named her Bubbles for her sprightly personality.
