Baby

babyHi Everyone! My name is Baby and no I’m not a Pug. That didn’t stop Compassionate Pug Rescue from saving me from death row on August 11, 2007. That’s right I was going to be put down for no other reason than overcrowding! 🙁

My new Dad told my Mom that he didn’t want a dog, so my Mom had to pull a fast one to save me. She told him that she needed some milk and was going to run to Publix and she would be right back. Well, she came back three hours later with me! My Mom knew my Dad wouldn’t be mad and it took him 30 seconds to fall in love with me too. Now my Dad kisses me, hugs me, and loves me as much as my Mom.

Hank

hankOnce again Marcia called needing a place for Hank to stay for 2 weeks while his foster family went on vacation.  The kids and I were taking a break from fostering after having pug puppies here because we needed our house to get back to some sort of “normalcy” and Jr was acting out.  But of course I said yes, I am a sucker for pugs and Hank was soooo sick and needed a place to rest.

So in walks Hank full of every worm imaginable, emaciated, disc problems, spondylosis, timid, and snorting and snoring louder than even my father.  Zoey and Jr weren’t thrilled and Tuzak thought he was his own personal bowling ball rolling him down the hallway, grabbing him with his mouth and pulling him back up, licking his eyes and face to death – problem being Hank had to be kept “quiet” while recovering from his severe heartworm.  Yikes what did I get myself into?

Layla

laylaHere is a photo of our beautiful little Layla with her new dress.  She is such a sweet little girl who we are so happy to have in our family.  Layla loves to go for walks with us and snuggles right in with us at night.  We have already had professional portraits done of her!  We will soon be taking her to our Michigan home where she will also be loved by grandma, aunts and uncles, and some cousin dogs.  She has a cute pink sweater and coat to wear in Michigan as it is already cold there!

We are so thankful to Compassionate Pug Rescue for all that you have done for Layla to help her become healthy again and for letting us adopt her.  She is our little angel that makes our family complete!

Eddie

eddieEddie is about 11 years old and was a stray in Dade County. Someone took good care of him because he is a very well-behaved gentleman.

We are now the proud parents of 2 senior pugs (10+ years of age) from CPR. They are full of love and joy, and they still have a lot of puppy in both of them.  The most important times of day for them are mealtime and nap time, in that order. We are blessed to have Eddie – he is a perfect addition to our family!
