Meet our Adoptable Pugs!

Due to the high-volume of inquiries our all-volunteer group receives, please don’t inquire about particular Pugs unless you have already submitted an application and successfully completed the application process. Due to the extensive time commitment to process an application, each adoption application requires a $25 non-refundable application processing fee which is collected when completing the application process. We appreciate your continued support!

PLEASE NOTE: If you are applying to foster or adopt, and you currently have pets, we require all canine/feline pets to be current on all vaccinations, heartworm prevention medication and be spayed or neutered, unless directed otherwise by your veterinarian. Failure to comply will result in a delay of processing your application until we receive the updated records. We thank you in advance for your understanding!

Please Note:

  • Our expenses average 4 times the amount of the adoption fee per dog - meaning we have to generate $3.00 in donations for every $1.00 in adoption fees.

  • We are an all-volunteer organization that functions only on the money we raise through donations and adoption fees - we only spend the money we raise in a responsible manner to help the Pugs.

  • We often don't know exactly how old the Pugs are. We use our Vet's expert opinion to determine approximate age in these scenarios.

  • It will be your responsibility to travel to pick up your Pug. Transport assistance may be arranged if resources are available.

  • Please understand that we sometimes have a waiting list of applicants. We compare incoming Pugs to the needs of already approved adopters on our waiting list and offer incoming Pugs to those adopters first.


Name: Sweet Pea #518 and Zoe #519 (Bonded Pair)

Gender/Age: Female Pug & Female French Bulldog Mix/estimated age 9 years

Status: Available for Adoption

Adoption Fee: $650 + 6% tax

Temperament: Welcome Sweet Pea and Zoe, the bonded pair! This dynamic duo came to BPR after their owner sadly had to enter hospice care. They went to the shelter for awhile, but luckily the shelter knew about BPR and the girls made their way to us. These ladies are just too adorable! Zoe puts herself to bed each night in the recliner on her blanket, while Sweet Pea prefers to sleep in her dog bed. They enjoy going for walks and do well on their leashes. They have also learned to go up and down the stairs. Sweet Pea has velvet fur and Zoe has ears like a desert fox. If you are in search of two low energy cuddle bugs, these are just the gals for you!

Name: Cuddles #521 and Feather #522 (Bonded Pair)

Gender/Age: Female and male chihuahua and pug mix (chug)/Estimate age 10 years

Status: Available for Adoption

Adoption Fee: $350 + 6% tax

Temperament: We are excited to welcome Cuddles and Feather to the BPR family! They are a very bonded pair in search of their forever home. Their owner had to move to a medical facility, so they ended up joining us at BPR. Cuddles weighs about 10 pounds and has a heart murmur, but her medication keeps everything working just fine. Feather is a big guy who weighs in at a whopping 6 pounds. They both have good house manners and are looking for their new person to cuddle with. They can be a bit grumpy, so ideally they would go to a home without children. Can you open your heart to this sweet bonded pair? If so, mention their names in your application!
