The Pugs Need Your Support!
We need your help so we can continue this lifesaving work! In 2021 we rescued more than 140 pug/pug mixes. We ensure every pug/mix gets all of the medical care they need & those medical expenses total about $200,000/yr.
That's a BIG job and we appreciate your support!
We are now in Georgia!
Pug Rescue of Florida, Georgia Chapter
Thanks to the work of our amazing adopters and volunteers, we saw a need for pug rescue help in the state of Georgia, and we are now officially licensed and recognized as a foster/rescue in Georgia!
WHAT does this mean for the PUGS?
We are now able to accept pugs from Georgia into our rescue via the Surrender Form or from shelters in Georgia.
WHAT does this mean for ADOPTERS?
Anyone applying to adopt a pug in the state of Georgia will no longer be considered "out of state". We are building a team of volunteers who can help process applications, complete home checks, etc. So, if you live in Georgia we welcome you to apply to adopt!
WHAT does this mean for people wo want to foster or volunteer in Georgia?
1. Foster applications: At this time we are only accepting foster applications in the Alpharetta / Cumming area.
2. Volunteer applications:
- At this time our biggest need is people with computer skills particularly data entry and/or hands on experience with the Shelterluv tracking system used by shelters.
- Additionally, we need people who can help transport pugs, but you need to have a flexible schedule and be able to respond quickly to help pugs in need.
WHAT does this mean for OUR RESCUE?
We are still Pug Rescue of Florida, we now have an expanded role to help pugs in Georgia. Therefore, we need volunteers and donations so we can help even more pugs every year. We are working to update our website to reflect our new role and new areas of need, so keep checking back for more information about how you can help us grow and help more pugs!
