Hi I'm Barkley a 5 yr old neutered fawn fun loving male. My busy owners didn't have time to give me the attention I really want. I am up to date on my shots and have been heartworm tested. I am also microchipped. I'm a big boy but they say I do need to lose a little weight so I should be ready soon for my forever home. I really like to play what my foster home calls the zoomies otherwise known as pug races even if it's just me. I love my humans and other dogs. Did I say that I love to sit in your lap on the sofa and watch TV with you. I would love to be your companion, please consider me for your friend. I still have to have my medical checkup so I'll be ready soon.
Available for Adoption
We are pugs needing to be rescued because we have lost our homes! If you have love to give to any of us, please contact PROS. Thank you for looking at us and trying to help us find a home to call our own! PROS especially needs to find homes for our older pugs. If you are looking for a mellow pal who wants to cuddle on the sofa rather than run laps around it, check them out!
Hi my name is Irving and I'm a 5-7 yr old neutered fawn male pug. I became a stray and ended up in a shelter. I had to have a hernia repaired and am getting treatment for foxtails that were between my toes. I get along with other dogs. I have a lot of energy so I'm going to need an active family. As you can see by my pictures I love to sleep with a furry friend. I'll soon be ready to go to my forever home.
Hi I'm Dodie and I'm as cute as can be. I'm an 11 week old fawn female whose owner couldn't afford the vet care for my left eye injury so I was taken in by PROS. I have no vision in that eye but I am receiving eye meds to keep me comfortable and to see if some of the cloudiness will clear up. The vet isn't sure yet if my eye may need to be removed. I still have to get the rest of my shots. I won't be available for a while so my eye can heal.
Update 7/10/10: Unfortunately I had to have my eye removed but I'm still cute and I have no problem getting around the house or the yard.
Hi, my name is Carmen. I am a 7 month old female fawn pug, I was born on December 1, 2009. I am a very sick little girl, I have Parvo. My owners surrendered me to PROS due to my illness, because they could not afford the medical bills. PROS wasted no time in getting me to their wonderful veterinarians and they are doing everything medically they can for me. I have to be kept in isolation and I am not eating so I have to be fed by syringe. PROS has incurred a large medical bill so far and I have a long way to go. Please pray for me to recover from this illness, I am a beautiful little girl and am looking forward to having the chance to grow and romp and love a family of my own. If you are able to help PROS by donating or contributing to my medical costs I would be deeply greatful as well as PROS for your compassion and kindness.
Many sweet licks and nose rubs,
Carmen
Hi! I'm Peaches a 3-5 yr old small fawn female. I got lost and ended up in a shelter. PROS came and picked me up along with Mario and Rollie. I had to have emergency surgery for pymetria (severe uterus infection) that was the only way to save my life. I am loving life now. When I'm recovered I will have a dental, palate trim and nasal surgery done so I will have better breathing. I love to be touched by my human and I will give kisses!
Hi, I'm Rollie! I am a 2 yr old neutered male fawn pug. I was abandoned and picked up by animal control where they took me to a shelter. I was surrendered to PROS, someone wanted me. I am a little bit insecure, but once I become comfortable in my surroundings and know that someone loves me I will be just fine. I am slightly under weight and when I was picked up I had demodeptic mange. I am currently being treated for the mange. I ride great in the car, and I am good with the other dogs in my foster home. I am learning that humans can be a wonderful source of fun and positive attention. I love playing with stuffed toys and my nylabone. I am very motivated by food rewards. I want to be part of the action in my foster home, and I am as sweet as they come. I am current on all of my vaccinations, I am micro-chipped, and my heart worm test was negative.
Rollie will be available for adoption once his medical clears.
Hi, I'm Milton. I am also called Uncle Milty. I am a 7 to 8 yr old neutered male fawn pug. I was found as a stray and taken to the Antioch shelter, where they took out a zillion fox tails from my fur. Hum, where had I been? Well no one came to claim me so I was surrendered to PROS, yes my saviors! I have limited eyesight and limited hearing but these small short comings do not detour me in any way, I get along just fine. I have no arthritis, hip or spine problems. Just due to my other problems with hearing and eyesight the vet determined that I was not well taken care of. I am a very happy boy, and I have a beautiful thick double coat of fur. I get along with all the other dogs in my foster home. My house training is being re-enforced and I'm glad to say I am doing better.
I am current on all of my vaccinations and I am micro-chipped. I am very excited to find my forever family who will pay attention to me, and give me mega bunches of love.
Milton will be available for adoption once his medical clears.
PROS wishes to thank each donation that was received for Miltons care. A long time PROS member and dear friend, Sharon Tracey passed away earlier this month. The family requested instead of flowers that donations be made to PROS in Sharon's name. Heartfelt thanks go to Ellen Byers, Carol Hartman, Helen Freeman, Jan and John Grover, Al and Carol Feuerstein, George and Mary Hartman, Don and Deborah Ciucci, James and Darcy Fields, Nancy Hussted, Denise and Michael Pagan, Linda Fossum, James & Susanne Reed, Victoraine Benedetti, Earl & Cynthia Asato, Shigeo, Sumiko and Earl Asato and Wellings & Co.
Hi, my name is Sammie! I am told that I am an 8 to 9 yr old spayed female fawn pug. The separation of my family forced my surrender to PROS. I was not spayed at the time of my surrender and we are aware of at least one litter of puppies that I have had. I was very lonely at first and I craved mega bunches of love and attention. My foster mom has been so good to me with affection, love, medical attention and just down right showing me that I was worth something. I love being part of a family, I get along great with dogs, cats and children. I just love being pampered, I am house-trained and I can use a dogie door. I ride very well in the car and I like to take walks and explore the surrounding sights. I am not much interested in playing with the other dogs or the toys, however I like to follow the other dogs around. My favorite past time is being as close as I can get to my human and even being part of your lap. I am extremely well behaved, I am very easy to handle and groom.
I am current on all of my vaccinations, I am micro-chipped and I was negative on my heart worm test.
Sammie would make a wonderful addition to any family, she is a beautiful little pug who has come through some tough adversities and has bounced back in the face of it.
Sammie will be available for adoption once her medical clears.
Hi my name is Mo! I am an 8 to 9 yr. old fawn neutered male pug. I was surrendered by my family to PROS because they fell on hard times due to the economy and they could no longer take care of me. I am in great physical shape, I have narrow shoulders and a lean muscular structure to my frame. I get along good with other dogs, and just every now and again I will get an inclining to grab a toy to play with.
I have a lot of energy and I am very active for my age. I tend to gulp my food fast, and I am not delicate when taking a snack from your hand. My foster dad is working on that issue very hard so that I mind my manners when taking a treat. I also tend to jump up to be petted and my foster dad is also working on making me mind better and asking if I can come up. I am house trained, and I am current on all my vaccinations. I was negative on my heart worm test and I am micro-chipped. I love to follow you around and I am a virtual shadow.
Mo is a super great dog for an active family, but due to his energy level he would do best in a home with older children.
Mo has cleared his medical and is now available for adoption.
Hi, my name is Baron! I am an 8 month old male fawn pug, I am the size of a 3 month old puppy. And that is why I was surrendered to the shelter by my owners who are breeders. I wasn't growing like my litter mates so therefore I was not worth anything to them, hence I was taken and given to the shelter. I am a beautiful little boy who deserves a chance at a long and wonderful life. I am a sick little boy with a liver shunt. I will be having surgery soon and I will have a very long road to recovery ahead of me. Please pray for me while I go through this long and painful process. I have to be on special food and medication for a quite some time.
PROS is asking you to look deep into your hearts and help us to help Baron who deserved more than to just be thrown away.
It will be quite some time before Baron will be available for adoption.
PROS and Baron wish to thank the following generous donors who have given towards his medical care and treatment: Sharon Bobbitt, Susan Vander Burght, Gerald DeVore, Julia Sheller, Mary Jane Urda, Stephanie Temples, Doranna Grech, June Ikezawa, John and Jan Grover, Rex Winchester, Tony Tiu, Lindy Turner, Linda Parena, Richard Linton, Todd Kalk, Connie Gillespie, Josephine Minola, Eileen English, Ann Walker, Kathy Highfill & The Royal Pugs and Elaine Lee in memory of PROS pug Benito Wagner-Hoskins-Wong. Judy Fulton donated as a wedding gift in honor of Emma Winfield and Ethan Veneklasen. Lisa Sheeran, Rebecca and Doug Green donated in memory of Ch. Full Moon's Inphamous "Otto". Thank you so much.
Update 6/3/2010: Baron had exploratory surgery yesterday, 6/2 and the surgeon from VSA did find a large liver shunt which was repaired. He was awake and wagging his tail last night. He still is going to be on meds and special food for quiet a while. His surgery was quite expensive and donations are still appreciated.
Update 6/26/10: Baron is ready for adoption! He will need to stay on his medication indefinitely as well as his special food. He will also need regular vet visits every couple of months for blood work to check his protein level and his liver enzymes.
Hi, my name is Mozart! I am a 3 yr. old neutered male fawn pug. I was surrendered to PROS when I was found wandering in an apartment complex. A nice lady took me to where I lived and my owners told her that they didn't want me any more. So this big hearted lady took me to PROS. I'm a small male weighing a mere 13 lbs. I know how to use a doggie door and I can go up and down stairs. I have the usual Pug dry eye problem which requires optimmune ointment daily and I have some minor skin allergies that are currently being treated. I'm good with other dogs and children and I love to snuggle and watch a good movie. I'm not too interested in toys, but I do like regular walks and investigating an interesting yard.
I'm current on all of my vaccinations, I'm micro-chipped, and was found negative for heart worms. I never want to be thrown away again, so please make sure that I am the boy for you.
Update: Mozart should not do more than 3 stair steps at a time due to his luxating patella. It does not currently bother him so no surgery is necessary but he may need surgery in the future.
Mozart is available for adoption.
Hello there, my name is McGyver! I am a 6 yr. old neutered male fawn Pug mix. I am believed to be a Puggle, that is a Pug and a Beagle. I was surrendered to PROS with my friend Monica because our family was no longer able to care for us. I am a very big, strong, active young man. I use to be an escape artist, but that is believed to be due to lack of attention. My sister nor I were ever taken on a walk, a ride in the car, or to a dog park. Now that I am in my new foster home, getting the love and attention that I should have I no longer have the desire to escape. I like it here, it is a sweet. I am friendly and get along well with cats, dogs and children. I am house-trained, however a little re-enforcing is being worked on. Since we were kept outside all the time, I am getting the big picture that it is a no no in the house. I am over joyed to interact with people, I like going on walks and taking rides in the car.
I am updated on my vaccinations, I am micro-chipped, and I was negative on my heart-worm test. Now I am just waiting for that beautiful family to call my very own, I will not disappoint you.
McGyver is ready for adoption.
Lucie would do best in a home that has a mellow male dog.
Hello, my name is Gypsy! I am a 5 to 6 yr. old tiny and petite spayed fawn female pug. I was surrendered to PROS because my owners could no longer take care of me. I virtually lived outside for 5 of those years. My health as well as my normal social habits suffered due to the lack of attention. I have been extremely lucky to be placed with such a loving and caring foster home. I was not house-trained nor leash-trained both are being worked on and I am doing my best to please my foster mom. I have been neglected for so long, that I give lots of kisses. I am just full of affection and I love being inside and following you around or cuddling on your lap. I lost some of the vision in one of my eyes due to an eye injury that had gone untreated. I am good with other animals, children and adults. I enjoy going on walks and am learning to walk properly on my leash. I discovered toys and boy do I just love them, who knew a toy could be that much fun. I know I will get better. I am current on my shots, and I am micro-chipped.
