Special Needs Pugs
Some of these pugs, due to age and or medical condition, will never be adopted but will live out the rest of their lives in one of our loving foster homes. As you can probably imagine, trying to take care of lost, abandoned, abused pugs can cost a great deal of money. All donations to our most special needs pugs are welcome. If you can't donate money we also need things such as food, blankets, travel kennels and so forth (check out our wish list).
Please open your hearts and give to help the rescue pugs who face the hardest challenges ahead - and please remember that all of your donations are tax deductible. Thank you for caring for these precious little ones. The pugs cannot ask, so we ask for them.
