WHY I

DONATE

It breaks my heart knowing there are pugs out there needing rescuing. And it blows my mind just how many pugs need rescuing every year.

Running a pug rescue, or any rescue for that matter, is not an easy job. It is heartbreaking. It is draining. It takes a toll on your body, your mind, your soul. And most of all, it is expensive.

Pugs cannot be rescued without the generous people in the pug community. The ones who rescue. And the ones who donate. Donate time. Donate space. Donate skills. Donate food. Donate products. Donate money.

The Story Of

SERINA

I adopted Serina from Pugs SOS on 16.09.2016. She was a terrified little girl who was pulled from a horrendous puppy farm by RSPCA. She had the worst start to life with 5 years spent being overbred for money.

Because of the work of rescue groups, Serina was saved from that terrible life and given a second chance. I was her second chance.

She got to have the most amazing 6 years with me that cancelled out those first 5 years. Because of Serina's life, donating to pug rescue to save more pugs is important to me.

The pugs need

THE MONEY

Pug rescue is crazy expensive. Every pug that comes into care will have a vet bill starting in the hundreds of dollars. Some will have vet bills in the thousands of dollars. Some will be healthy. Some will be scared. Some will need lots of love and attention to become the pug they deserve. Some will go to homes with lots of health problems. All will go to homes with lots of love.

In one year, pug rescue in Australia can have vet bills well over $100,000. So every single dollar that is donated to pug rescue helps. It helps saves the lives of so many pugs. And why 5% of every sale is donated to pug rescue.
