For every foster home we gain, another pug can be saved. Recruiting and maintaining foster homes is critical for any successful rescue organization. Becoming a foster home is one of the most gratifying parts of rescue work.
DFW Pug Rescue brings in, on average, 10 dogs per week. We rescue dogs from North Texas and other areas of the state when needed, as well as dogs from the states of Louisiana and New Mexico where there are no Pug Rescue Group. Our dogs come from shelters, animal control, owner surrenders and pugs found as strays.
In order to bring pugs into rescue we need available foster homes to place them, until they are adopted. During this time, the foster family provides valuable information to us about the foster dog’s behavior, temperament and health as well as how they adjust to a home environment. The foster home also reports the pug’s ability to live with other dogs, cats and children and if they would do better in an active adoptive home or a quiet one.
