🐾 Christopher Update!

It’s been about a month, so we wanted to share how our little fighter is doing!

When Christopher first joined us in June, he needed emergency surgery for a liver shunt and a large bladder stone. In July, his follow-up bile acid test and x-rays showed everything moving in the right direction—such great news! 🙌

Over the past few weeks, Christopher has really started to live life like the happy puppy he deserves to be. He’s now on a prescription liver support diet (which he’ll likely need long term) and has gained some healthy weight—he’s a whopping 10.2 lbs now!

Of course, being a curious pug puppy, he managed to give us another scare by bumping those big eyes of his and developing an ulcer. Thankfully, with the help of amazing eye specialists and his dedicated foster family, his eye is healing beautifully.

Christopher’s medical journey is not over; he recently had a consult with a specialist and he will have BOAS surgery next week to help his breathing. He also had another bile acid test and x-rays to check his liver and make sure everything is still stable.

💙 He’s not even 9 months old, yet he has already endured more than many pugs in a lifetime. But thanks to your support, our volunteers/fosters, and our wonderful vet partners, Christopher is thriving and finally getting the fresh start he deserves.

🐶 Please keep this brave little guy in your thoughts as he continues his journey!

HERE'S THE SCOOP ON TAYLOR:
🐶 I love playing with toys, playing fetch with my humans is my favorite
🌳 I love to go on walks and play outside - a yard of my own would be a dream come true
💤 My crate is my safe space and I sleep there without a sound
🐾 I'm not a fan of big dogs (I bark at them) and I especially dislike cats (I chase them and for some reason they don't like that).
💦 Making progress with potty training, I need someone home a lot to help me with my schedule and routine
💉 Healthy, heartworm negative, neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.

🐾 Happy Tail Alert! 🐾

💙 Rocky’s journey to his forever home began at one of our rescue events—where he was charming everyone manning the kissing booth! His new family, who had previously adopted from PRFG and sadly lost their beloved Murphy, were ready to open their hearts once again to another pug in need. Little did they know, the sweet pug stealing kisses at the booth would soon be their new family member.

Rocky has settled in beautifully—enjoying all the cuddles, car rides, and the comfort of a family who adores him.

🏠Thank you to Rocky’s adopters for opening your hearts and home again and giving this special boy a second chance at happiness. Here’s to many happy years filled with snuggles, playtime, and endless kisses!

🐾 In Memory of Loco — A Heartworm Warrior

Loco joined our rescue as a senior after his person passed away. We were told he lived solely inside for years but had not been on heartworm prevention or received regular veterinary care. At his intake exam, he was diagnosed with heartworm disease, severe dental disease, and other serious health issues.
Despite our best efforts and all the care we could provide, Loco’s body was too weak to keep fighting, and he sadly passed away less than a month after arriving.

💔Loco’s story is a heartbreaking reminder that heartworm disease can affect even "indoor" dogs and why regular prevention and annual testing are absolutely critical.

Your support of our HEART for Pugs program funds lifesaving testing, prevention, and treatment for pugs like Loco and helps give them a chance at a healthier future. Right now, every donation is matched dollar for dollar up to $10,000, doubling your impact.

💙 Please consider donating today to honor Loco’s memory and protect more pugs from suffering.

🇺🇸🐾 Happy Labor Day from all of us at Pug Rescue of Florida & Georgia!

Today we honor the hard work and dedication of so many—especially our incredible volunteers, fosters, adopters, and supporters who pour their time, love, and energy into giving pugs a second chance.

While you enjoy a well-deserved day of rest, our pugs want to remind you that they take their “jobs” very seriously too—whether it’s professional napping, snack taste-testing, or expert cuddling. 😉🐶

Thank you for helping us do the real work of rescue. Wishing everyone a safe, happy, and pug-filled Labor Day!

🏡 Happiness is a FURever home!
These 8 pugs have officially packed their bags and headed HOME!

From the moment they arrived in rescue, we promised them love, care, and a second chance - and thanks to their amazing adopters, they now have forever families to call their own.

💙 Each adoption is a celebration, and we’re so grateful to our adopters, fosters, donors, and supporters who help make these happy tails possible.

🐾 When Max III came into rescue 6 weeks ago, his skin was in rough shape and he was also suffering from eye and ear infections. But lucky for him, his foster home treats him like a king - complete with medicated bubble baths every other day and full body coconut oil massages in between. 👑🛁 🥥

His dedicated fosters have been working nonstop on his care routine:
✅ Antibiotics + Apoquel
✅ Eye ointments
✅ Omega supplements
✅ Baths & coconut oil spa days (his fave!)

And guess what? After just a few weeks, he’s showing off new little hairs on his chest! Proof that love + dedication + good care = magic.
Stay tuned for more before & after glow ups - because we know this boy is only going to keep shining. ✨

🐾 On National Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day, we honor the precious fosters and alumni who have crossed over to the other side. Though they’re no longer with us, their pawprints remain forever in our hearts.

We remember their stories, their spirits, and the joy they brought into our lives. To every sweet soul who found love, even for a short time, thank you for trusting us.

If you’ve lost a furry friend, today is a reminder that their love lives on — across the Rainbow Bridge and always in our memories. 🌈💙

🎉 Happy Tail Time!

From rescue pup to royal status, Zoey has officially claimed her throne! She now has two doggie brothers, but make no mistake—this girl is Queen of the House!

She keeps her loyal subjects (aka her humans) laughing with her sass, showering them with snuggles, and making sure a closed door policy is strictly forbidden. She’s living her best life, ruling her kingdom with love, charm, and just the right amount of bossiness.

👑 Many thanks to the Kelleys for giving this queen her castle and happily ever after!
