This sweet little girl needs a foster who can help her recover from some health issues (likely UTI and mammary gland infection that we know of) and teach her what it means to be loved for who she is instead of how many puppies she can produce. She will need some potty training which will become easier once the UTI has cleared up.

If you want to foster her for the next few weeks, please let us know. If you already have an application on file with us, please let us know. Otherwise, please submit a foster application from our website http://nashvillepugrescue.org/foster/

We need a permanent home for this 2.5 year old little girl named Fern who has had a rough life. She needs to be an “only child” because of her past so if you would like to adopt her, please submit an application from our website, nashvillepugrescue.org.

WE NEED FOSTERS PLEASE!!!! Or potential permanent homes for SIX pugs!! The male and female are bonded and will stay together.

We have a bonded pair (male and female) about 8 years old that we previously adopted to a family who can no longer care for them. They are an adorable couple and are very sweet!

We don’t have many details about the 4 neutered males yet except that their owner is no longer able to take care of them. I’ll share details as soon as I know more.

If you can foster or want to be considered for adoption, please submit an application from our website nashvillepugrescue.org.

We still need two foster families for two pugs who have to be “only children.” We realize most of you have other pugs and/or pets but, if you don’t have any other pets and could foster for us, please let us know.

Good afternoon, pug friends! We have a special pug that we are helping to rehome who has already been rescued from a sad situation. She's about 2.5 and learning to be a pug. However, it's been determined that she should be an only pug or in a home without another female dog. A very sweet girl who just requires some extra patience and love as she adjusts to the good life. Definitely needs a fenced yard as she is quite quick (though, as most pugs, responds to the word "treat")! I have been contacting people on our waitlist, but if you might be interested, please reach out or fill out an application on our website.

We are glad you are here!  As a 501(c)(3) organization our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome abused, neglected and abandoned pugs. Check out our adoptable and foster dogs here!

Hi!! I haven’t been around for a while and wanted to share a quick explanation of what I’ve been doing.

Many of you know I’ve been fighting cancer for the past few years, especially since last Fall, and I haven’t been helping with the rescue very much at all. Thankfully, Kerri Roscoe Rios has done a great job filling in for me and making sure the pugs are getting the help they need. The other Board Members have also helped when needed.

Currently, I’m dealing with some issues from radiation but my doctors think I should fully recover by early August. I have frequent checkups with great doctors so I’m doing what they want and staying positive throughout the process. The surgeries have gone well and I’m considered cancer-free at this point. YAY!!!!!

I’ll be slowly catching up with what’s been happening while I’ve been away and will start getting involved again as I continue feeling better over the next few months.

Thank you Kerri, Andra and Tiffany and all of you who have kept me in your prayers and wished me well!!

Cindy 💜

MISSING PUG IN ANTIOCH!!!

Is anyone dealing with a pug who has a collapsing trachea? I’m going through it with my almost 15 year old Maggie and have learned a lot throughout the process. I’ll be happy to put the info together in a document I can share if anyone needs it.

Hi, friends! Meet Rochele and Rocko, they are 6-8 months old and weigh about 10 lbs. They both have issues with their hind ends, Rochele not using one leg while Rocko appears to be constantly crouching. They are still very active regardless, and are friendly but have no interest in being held until they tire out. We will be setting up appointments with our vet for further understanding of the issue. Until then, we are looking for a foster. Please reach out if you have fostered for us or have an application on file. If you haven't filled out an application, you can do so on our website www.nashvillepugrescue.org

Donations to aid in their medical care and treatment would be greatly appreciated.

We are pleased to report that Milo is settling in nicely in his new home and now has two pug siblings to match his energy and playfulness. Nashville Pug Rescue assisted his former owners throughout the re-homing process by reviewing applications, checking vet references, doing a home visit and providing transportation. Milo is much loved, and has a great life ahead of him.

We are assisting in rehoming Milo. He’s 2.5 years old and very sweet! He’s very active and loves to run around, play ball, and play tug of war with just about anything! He’s very high energy, but loves to sit on the couch and be petted for hours on end. He does have some special needs- neurological delays and has to drink water from a special bottle to keep from aspirating. He gets along great with people and other animals, but because of his delays he tends to not understand boundaries with dogs bigger than him. If you are someone that may have the love and patience Milo needs, please fill out an application if you have not done so already. If we do have your application and you're interested, please reach out. www.nashvillepugrescue.org
