Below are SOME of the pugs we have available for adoption. MOST OF OUR PUGS ARE NEVER LISTED ON THIS PAGE because their forever homes have been selected from applications already on file. This is especially true right now while we have far more applications on file than available dogs. As soon as a new dog is ready for adoption following our routine vet care, he or she is matched with a waiting application without needing to be posted on the website. Hopefully, this low number of pugs being relinquished is a good sign for pugs in general.

An application must be submitted to be considered for any rescue pug. If you wish to be considered for a pug we may receive in the future, please submit your application now. Applying does not obligate you to adopt from us; you have the right to refuse any or all pugs about which you are contacted.

If you already have an application on file and are interested in one of the dogs posted here, please reply to the email you received from our adoption coordinator when you sent your application.

With occasional exceptions, all of our rescued pugs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated and heartworm tested before placement.

Please also feel free to visit our Owner Referral page.
