Special Pugs With Special Needs

Long-term and Hospice Care Pugs
Visit us on:
This page is dedicated to Pugs in foster care with serious medical issues that require either expensive diagnostic tests or ongoing treatment. Since the possibilities for adoption are limited for these dogs, they may be in long-term foster care. We rely on your generosity to help us care for these dogs who, otherwise, would face a bleak future. Once medical costs for a dog have been met, any extra contributions will go into the general medical fund.

To make a donation, click on the "Donate" button below each dog's description, then enter the name of the dog you wish to sponsor.
