About Pacific Pug Rescue

Visit us on:

Pacific Pug Rescue is a 501c3 nonprofit organization incorporated in 2006. We exist to rescue, rehabilitate and place unwanted, abandoned, neglected and abused Pugs and Pug mixes in permanent adoptive homes that have been carefully screened. We rescue Pugs from throughout Oregon, Idaho and Washington regardless of age or medical condition and are dedicated to providing for their short and long-term medical needs. Prior to adoption, Pug dogs are cared for in approved foster homes; they receive medical care and treatment, spaying or neutering, dental checks, vaccinations and microchips. We strive to educate the public about the Pug dog breed, including its personality, health issues and care, and about the importance of domestic animal population control.

PPR is an all volunteer organization. We do not have a shelter facility. All rescued Pugs live with volunteer foster families while waiting to be adopted into caring forever homes.

There is an adoption donation for each Pug to help pay for medical expenses. The adoption donation ranges from $100.00 to $400.00 depending on the age and condition of the Pug.


We are in no way associated or affiliated with WA State Pug Rescue. We do however, network with other reputable rescues and shelters to give homeless pugs the best chance at a good life as possible.
