We rescue from the shelters and also from private homes. Our rescue Pugs are turned in for many, many reasons. Some are abused or neglected, but most are from loving homes that can no longer take care of their pet. We have had owners go into nursing homes, pass away, move out of town, divorce...all kinds of reasons. Sometimes we have no history on the animal, as often they are lost and picked up by Animal Control, but are never claimed by their owners.

Answer: Pugs are generally very friendly, and easy going. That is not to say that Pugs will always get along with other animals.

Most people mistakenly think that "having papers" (breed registration) means that a dog comes from a good background. Papers only mean that both parents are Pugs, nothing more. Pet shop (puppy mill) dogs have papers and yet they are the unhealthiest dogs in the world! Papers do not guarantee that a Pug will be free from genetic disease. If a Pug is turned in to our rescue with papers, we throw them away. There is no need to pass them along once a Pug is spayed or neutered. See similar questions...
