Our mission is to give pugs in need a safe, healthy, and happy future.
We rescue displaced and abandoned pugs, provide necessary medical care, place them with caring fosters, find each pug a loving home, and let everyone know how SPECIAL pugs are.
Since 2003, we have been known as Pug Rescue of Florida, a non-profit 501(c)3 animal rescue organization, EIN: 14-1866385. In 2021 we obtained our license as an official Georgia foster/rescue organization.
We operate through an organized network of volunteers and sustain our operations through fundraising efforts and the generous financial support of private individuals and commercial entities.
Pug Rescue of Florida & Georgia rescues approximately 150 pugs/pug mixes each year, incurring over $175,000 in annual expenses to save the lives of these precious pugs.

Additional adoption info
Everyone at Pug Rescue of Florida & Georgia is a volunteer; we do not have any paid employees. From fostering pugs and attending vet appointments to fundraising and paperwork, we juggle it all alongside our busy lives. We strive for timely responses but most of our days are hectic, so email is our primary communication channel.
Your application will not be processed until all the required information is received. This includes paying the application fee, completing the adoption application, and submitting vet records for all pets you have had during the past 3 years. (You don't have to currently have other dogs to apply; some pugs are just fine being only dogs).
