Pug Rescue of North Carolina, Inc. Pug Rescue of North Carolina (PRONC) was founded on May 11, 2000 as a 501 (c)(3) non-profit charitable organization.
(52)

We have help hundreds of pugs find new forever homes. Since then, we have had hundreds of pugs come through and we have seen many changes. We have been blessed with so many foster homes, volunteers, sponsors and adoptive families who have each done their part to make saving these wonderful pugs possible. The need seems to become greater every year with the increased popularity of the breed and so

many people suffering disruptions in their lives which make giving up their beloved companions a necessity. Of course, there are the large and small breeding facilities that have been closed down, leaving their breeding stock in need of rehabilitation and placement. With the increased demand and loss of some organizations that became overwhelmed with the ever-increasing need, Pug Rescue of North Carolina has expanded our mission to include surrounding states and we have been called upon to help in large-scale kennel closures from even farther away. Thanks to our supporters and the commitment of our founder and her volunteers, we have been able to offer PRONC's services to fill some of the gaps in the availability of Pug Rescue.

UPDATE: Tugg’s ultrasound results are in. There was still food particles in the stomach after 12 hours since he ate. The vet feels strongly that he has a motility issue so they have started medications and a low fat senior diet. Higher fat foods take longer to leave the GI tract. So hopefully this medication is tolerable for him. It is half a very small pill so that is a plus. The vet will follow up with him on Feb 27. So hopefully this helps and allows this boy to eat. He was down another 2.5 pounds. He needs to put back on 7.5 pounds just to get back to a healthy weight. If the medication does not work then our next step is a barium swallow. Thank you for all the donations and prayers for this sweet boy.
Next day: He seems much more comfortable today and able to eat and rest. Hopefully he continues to improve.

Update for those following Tugg's Story. He did not tolerate the oral antibiotics at all. He is also vomiting even with the Cerenia pills. I had left a message for the vet who called back today. He wants to get Tugg in for an abdominal ultrasound which is now scheduled for Feb 22. He wants to rule out anything in his stomach that they can't see with x-ray. If the ultrasound is normal then we will try Maxolon and see if it is just a motility issue. The vet does not want to start the medication without knowing as it could make the condition worse if there was something there. I will not get results on that day but he said he would call in a couple days with the results. Unless of course they see something bad So we are praying for a negative ultrasound so he does not have to undergo surgery. I would love for him to be well, eating a normal diet and gaining his weight back. Thanks for all the prayers and help with his bill.

UPDATE: Tugg still needs your help and prayers. He went back to the vets today and he is still suffering from bronchitis, with lots of noise in his airways. He got another long acting antibiotic shot and we are trying oral antibiotics again. The vet is afraid if we do not get this under control that we will have to hospitalize him for iv antibiotics. He also lost another pound of weight, so he is down 5 pounds. So please say a prayer that the medications will start working and make him feel better. If you can spare a few dollars towards his bill that would be great. It is now 1,500.00 and still climbing. We are hoping to continue to care for him at home to keep the cost down. You can donate here or from our website www.pugrescuenc.org Thank you!

Hello & Welcome family, friends and supporters of 𝙋𝙪𝙜 𝙍𝙚𝙨𝙘𝙪𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝙉𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙝 𝘾𝙖𝙧𝙤𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙖🍷 🐾 🧡

My name is Heidi and I will be your Cause Entrepreneur with ONEHOPE Wine. I am really excited to have teamed up with this organization to help raise some funds for this incredible Pug Rescue. ❤️ 🍾

Pug Rescue of North Carolina is a non-profit organization dedicated to the Pug Dog Breed. We rescue pugs in crisis, carefully nursing them back to health, physically and emotionally, in individual PRONC volunteer's homes. Each pug is treated as family until such time as a suitable home, which has been screened and approved by the membership, can be located. 🐾 🧡

Please check them out and like their FB page.

Please help support them so that they can continue to help as many animals as possible and make an even bigger IMPACT. 🐾 💛
