Become a Corporate Pug Warrior
Partner with DFW Pug Rescue to save lives, strengthen your community impact, and help ensure no pug is left behind.
Every year, DFW Pug Rescue rescues hundreds of pugs facing neglect, abandonment, medical emergencies, and special needs. Corporate sponsors provide the critical funding that helps us say yes when a pug needs help most.
Why Corporate Support Matters
In 2026, DFW Pug Rescue experienced some of the highest intake numbers in our history. Medical costs continue to rise as more pugs arrive requiring emergency surgeries, heartworm treatment, specialized care, and ongoing medications.
Corporate sponsorships provide reliable funding that allows us to plan ahead, respond quickly, and continue accepting pugs regardless of their condition or cost.
When businesses partner with DFW Pug Rescue, they become part of every rescue story that follows.
