Colorado Pug Rescue (CPR) is
an all volunteer organization established in 1995 by members of a Denver-area
pug dog club who were concerned about the welfare of their breed. CPR works to
recover pugs from private relinquishments, shelters, and other sources
throughout Colorado and in surrounding states. We network with surrounding
states to rescue, medically and emotionally treat, and place pug dogs. CPR
maintains a three-member board of directors, several committees and a number of
foster homes.
CPR is:
- Dedicated to the welfare of pug dogs
- Incorporated as a nonprofit organization - 501(c)(3)
- Licensed by the State Of Colorado as an animal rescue organization
- Operated solely by volunteers
- Supported by the Rocky Mountain Pug Dog Club
- A member of All Breed Rescue Network of Colorado
Why are Pugs Relinquished?
The general state of the economy, changing lifestyles, and owners who no longer
want them or care for them are some of the reasons pugs are given up. Some have
a beloved owner who is going into a convalescent facility, a retirement
residence or who has died and no other family member wants to care for them.
Some rescued pugs are from animal shelters or strays whose owners cannot be
found.
Tax-deductible contributions for medical expenses can be sent to:
