HOW WE TRY TO HELP RESCUE PUGS
It's really impawtant to us that we pay forward the love that we have shared with our Puggies over the last 20 years by helping other Rescue Puggies find their fur-ever families:
🐾 Donations – $1 from every sale goes towards the rehabilitation of rescue pugs.
🐾 Foster Care – We are registered foster carers with Pug Rescue & Adoption Victoria.
🐾 Sponsorship – We sponsor fundraising events that support pug rescues.
🐾 Event Organization – We help plan and organize fundraising events for pug rescue efforts.
🐾 Adoption Advocacy – We encourage adoption over purchasing when it’s the right fit for a family.

RESUCE PUG FOSTERING
We have been blessed with six foster Pugs since 2021, with Buster the Blind Rescue Pug our current foster.
We love fostering rescue pugs because they give us so much love, even after they've been mistreated by their previous Hooman's.
They give us hugs that are soooooo warm and snuggly, and nothing beats a sneeze in the face either.
If you are not able to adopt a rescue pug, consider fostering or helping out with Vet trips or fundraising event volunteering.
FUNDRAISING & EVENT SPONSORSHIP
We've started off our year of fundraising with our Pugs n Stripes Collection Launch Pawty - we asked our guests to buy a donation ticket or donate on the day and they were very generous.
And, we've just completed our International Pug Day celebration event
To date, we raised over $450 for our Rescue Puggie fur-ends, not including our $1 donation for every order campaign, and we hope to do more soon.
LEARN MORE ABOUT RESCUE PUGS AND THE PEOPLE WHO HELP THEM
Many years ago, when I rescued my first pug Louis a.k.a Fatdog through a local Vet who was doing everything they could to save the life of a little black pug whose only crime was that his family no longer wanted him and thought it was better to ‘put him down’ than find a loving home, did I realise just how naive I was about the world of pugs. Now we dedicate our PUGCAST, The Pug Life Show, to educating Pug Pawrents about how to care for their pug, as well as talk to other Pug Pawrents about their pug life. THESE EPISODES TALK TO EXPERTS ABOUT RESCUE ORGANISATIONS AND WHAT IT TAKES TO REHABILITATE AND FIND A FUR-EVA FAMILY FOR THE HUNDREDS OF PUGS IN CARE ANNUALLYS4 EP14: Snorts & Signals: Decoding the Signs of a Good Pug Rescue
We’re talking all things pug adoption — from spotting red flags to knowing when it’s the right fit. With trainers Jess and Alex, we cover rescue rules, health checks, care environments, and the adoption process. A must-listen for anyone thinking of adopting.S3 EP11: Pug Rescue and Adoption Victoria
I’m talking to Joanna from Pug Rescue and Adoption Victoria, a volunteer community foster care network that rehabilitates Pugs, and Frenchies when the need arises, so that they find their fur-ever loving family and to never have to face the possibility of being ‘put down’ because their owners don’t want to help them find a loving home.S1 EP08: Meet PugsSOS (WA)
This episode isn't just about the beautiful Puggies who are in care, and can I just say you're going to love Pippy the rescue Puggie who was on the Show, it is also about the amazing work that Foster Carers do, and what it takes to be a Foster Carer to a rescue Puggie.LEARN MORE ABOUT BEING PREPARED FOR YOUR ADOPTIVE PUGGIE
