Pawsitively Pugs Rescue is dedicated to the rescue, care, and placement of unwanted, abandoned, neglected and abused pugs, giving each a second chance at a loving and caring forever home.  PPR accepts pugs regardless of their age, temperament or medical condition.

Pugs surrendered to PPR receive necessary medical care; are spayed or neutered, microchipped, and receive routine vaccinations before placement in their forever homes.
