💙 Happy National Philanthropy Day

Today feels extra special — because we just wrapped an incredible PugFest 2025 and it was all thanks to YOU.

YOU showed up, you donated, you shopped, you played games, and you helped us raise lifesaving funds for pugs in need.

On a day dedicated to generosity, community, and giving back, we got to witness the very best of all three. 😍
From donors and sponsors, to volunteers, fosters, vendors, and every single person who attended — YOU made today a huge success.

We may be tired but we’re happy and we’re grateful for all of YOU.

As the day comes to a close, we’re not at $22K yet — but we can definitely see it from here. If you have anything left to spare, just know every little bit adds helps us continue saving pugs in need.

I'm hearing one of our boys will be making an appearance at pugfest in ATL this weekend!!!! Just a reminder, Buddy and Manny's adoption fees are being waived by the wonderful crew at Pug Rescue of Florida and Georgia! Fostering and adopting saves lives!!!

🐾 Buddy & Manny: Two beagle mixes, one big hope for a forever home! 🐾

Buddy and Manny didn't ask for their world to change - but they've handled it with grace, resilience, and a whole lot of heart.
These sweet boys came to NCAS after their beloved owner suffered a major stroke and could no longer care for them. Their momma, a certified puggle, was quickly taken in by Pug Rescue of FL & GA, and soon after, Buddy and Manny followed. They've spent the last 120+ days soaking up the sunshine, love, and healing in Florida foster homes - and now, they're ready to write the next chapter of their lives.
They don't need to be adopted together. In fact, living separately has helped them blossom into confident, affectionate companions who are learning that humans can be kind, gentle, and safe. Without further ado - here are the facts about these sweet beagle boys.

🐾Buddy - The velcro dog with the big heart
Three years old and 20 pounds of pure charm, Buddy is everyone's best friend. His foster family describes him as sweet, playful, and full of personality. He thrives on attention and would love nothing more than to be your shadow - snuggled close, always nearby.
- Potty training: A+
- Dog friendly: Absolutely!
- Kid friendly: Yes - prefers them over adults!
- Cat friendly: That's gonna be a no!
- Fencing needs: Must be over 3 feet - he's a jumper!
- Personality: Athletic, affectionate, and learning to trust adults.
Buddy would do well with canine companions or as an only dog. He's working on leash manners and would flourish with a patient, loving adopter who sees the gold in his gentle soul.

🐾Manny - The lizard hunter with a song in his heart
Also three years old and 20 pounds, Manny is a cuddle bug with a curious streak. He's a backyard explorer who loves to hunt lizards (unsuccessfully, but enthusiastically!) and serenade the household when it's time for breakfast.
- Potty training: Great
- Dog friendly: Yes! He thrives with canine friends
- Kid friendly: Yes - prefers them over adults!
- Cat friendly: Unknown
- Fencing needs: Must be higher than 3 feet - he's got hops!
- Personality: Snuggly, sensitive, and slowly learning to trust.
Manny gains confidence from other dogs and would do best in a home with a furry sibling. He's slow to warm up to adults, but once he does, he's a loyal, loving companion.

Ready to adopt either of these boys? Let's make it happen! Both of them are fully vetted, neutered, microchipped, current on vaccines, heartworm negative, and ready to go! We will help connect you with the wonderful people at Pug Rescue of Florida and Georgia, assist with securing transport if needed, and support the adoption process every step of the way. They came from Newton County, so we will work just as hard to get them to their forever homes as we would for any of our other shelter babies!
They've waited long enough. Help us give them the happy-ever-after they deserve!

💙 World Kindness Day: Nov 13

Today’s the perfect reminder that a little kindness goes a long way — especially when it comes to our furry friends. 🐶

At PRFG, we see kindness in action every single day — from the fosters who open their homes, to the donors who help fund medical care, to the adopters who give pugs a second chance at love.

Want to celebrate World Kindness Day?
Here are a few simple ways to spread the love today:
✨ Share a rescue dog’s post — it could help them find a home.
✨ Donate to a local animal rescue.
✨ Volunteer your time.
✨ Be kind to every dog (and human!) you meet.

Because kindness doesn’t just change their world — it changes ours too.

🎉 Only 4 days left to reach our $22K for 22 Years of Rescue goal!

EXCITING NEWS! A generous anonymous donor has offered to MATCH the next $2,000 in donations! That means your gift will go twice as far to help pugs in need.

🐾 Just ask Mia, a 5-year-old pug who came to us with a long history of painful UTIs. A recent vet exam revealed a large bladder stone that needed to be removed immediately so we were contacted for help. Mia was picked up at noon and by 3pm the same day, she was undergoing surgery. She had a large bladder stone removed as well as a cracked molar and 2 loose teeth removed.

💙 Your donations and support make this kind of lifesaving care possible. We’re so close to hitting our goal — Let’s finish strong and make every dollar count (times two!) for the pugs!
