The decision to get a pet should always be a family decision, not one made at the spur of the moment, because the kids want a dog and the responsibilities of having a dog are not considered. Everyone is going to play a part in raising and caring for this new family member. Like a child, a pet is a lifetime commitment that must be cared for during its entire life. Changes in the Pugs health, your living circumstances or family situations do not make your Pug disposable. Please consider all of the responsibilities of having a pet before making the decision to adopt.
We do not have a physical location for you to visit. All of the Pugs are housed in private foster homes that are not accessible to the public.
We recommend you not wait until you see a Pug that you would like to adopt before you begin the adoption process. When a Pug enters the program and is cleared by all of the doctors that are caring for the Pug, approved applicants are notified the Pug is available for adoption. If you wait until you see a Pug that you are interested in that has entered the program to begin the adoption process it may already be to late.
The Pugs pictured on this page are all available for adoption. The page is updated as soon as a Pug enters the program or as soon as a commitment to adopt a Pug is made. Pugs . Please take the time to read each dog’s profile as this is the best way to learn about any medical/behavior issues, special needs, etc. If a dog is listed as “Medical Hold” this means that they are currently NOT available for adoption but will be once their medical care is complete. Pugs that have a pending adoption (adoption awaiting a home visit to be completed where the Adoption Application and Veterinary records have already been approved) remain on this page with the notation on that Pug's web page that the adoption process has closeduntil the home visit and adoption are completed at which time the Pug is transferred to the Successful Adoptions page.
Yje first step in the adoption process is to download, print, complete and send in an Adoption Application that can be found under the Adopt/Foster tab of this web site. E-mailed and faxed applications are not accepted.
