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!

Adoption Fee Schedule (Effective 8/15/2023):
Pugs under 2 Years Old: $450 + 6% Kentucky Sales Tax (effective 7/1/18) - $477
Pugs 2 - 6 Years Old: $375 + 6% Kentucky Sales Tax (effective 7/1/18) - $397.50
Pugs 7 - 9 Years Old: $325 + 6% Kentucky Sales Tax (effective 7/1/18) - $344.50
Pugs 10 Years Old and Over: $175 + 6% Kentucky Sales Tax (effective 7/1/18) - $185.50
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.
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.
If you are approved to adopt through BPR, your application will be active for 6 months from the date your application was submitted.
Name: Molly #580
Gender/Age: Female/ Estimated Age: 11 years old
Status: Available
Adoption Fee: $175 + tax
Temperament: Meet Molly #580! Molly is looking for a fresh start. Her owner could no longer care for her, so they made the difficult decision to surrender her, and we are happy to offer her a loving second chance. Molly is an 11 year old Puggle who is sweet as can be. She likes belly rubs before getting up in the morning and loves to play tug-of-war. She will grab a toy as soon as she sees her human stand up because she is ready to play. Molly gets along with other humans and dogs, like to take walks and be outside, and she is a quick learner. Molly even knows to bring her toys back inside when she is asked!
Molly has been with us for over a year now and although she is well cared for in her foster home she is ready to find her forever family.
Could Molly be the perfect fit for your family? Be sure to mention her name in your application.
