Become a Volunteer

Are you someone who adores pugs and wants to lend a helping hand to support more of these adorable dogs in need?

You're in good company! Volunteers are the lifeblood of any nonprofit organization, and our team of volunteers is simply outstanding. They not only help save the organization money but also invaluable time, enabling us to achieve many essential tasks that would otherwise be difficult to accomplish. Our rescue is powered by the dedication of individuals who graciously volunteer their time, open their homes, and pour their hearts into making a difference.

Ways to get involved

Adoptions

Our adoption volunteers play a vital role in facilitating the adoption process from processing adoption applications, providing guidance to potential adopters, conducting home visits, scheduling meet-and-greets, and providing post-adoption support.

Events & Fundraisers

Our event & fundraiser volunteers help with planning and coordinating events and fundraisers to help with medical and operating costs.

Fostering

Our fosters play a critical role in the process by providing a safe and loving environment for pugs to transition into that have been abandoned, surrendered, or rescued from their previous situations.

Marketing

Our marketing volunteers help with our social media presence, website, and community outreach through monthly newsletters.

Transportation

Our transportation volunteers help keep our pugs on the move, from initial pick up to adoptions, events, and veterinary visits.
