Pug Rescue in Action
Our goal is to never say no to a pug or pug mix in need.
Many of the pugs we rescue have been in abusive, neglectful situations. We’re able to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome roughly 150 pugs and pug mixes a year thanks to the help of our outstanding medical partners, our network of transport volunteers and foster families, and donations from big-hearted pug lovers in Texas and around country.
Here are some of their stories.
