Bacon

baconWe would like to take the time to say thank you for the wonderful job you guys did with Bacon. She was a member of our family within the first few seconds we saw her, and we never could have given her the wonderful and healthy life she has now without your help. As a senior pug, we were concerned about her health issues, and her ability to live an active life.

Once she received help with her medical disabilities, and were able to tend her back to health, she has been nothing but a re-found puppy. We try not to think of the pain and suffering she dealt with before coming into rescue.

Joey

joeyI can’t begin to thank you enough for bringing Joey into our lives. He and Suki, our other pug, act as if they’ve lived together forever and he’s wonderful with my children. He is definitely the typical pug: sweet natured, mellow and a little chubby! Well, we’re working on that last one!

Joey seems very happy at home with us and we take him out to the park, the pet store and car rides a lot. He loves the attention he gets from everyone (they always notice his long tongue!).

Again, thank you to everyone at CPR for the wonderful things you do for needy pugs.

Windzor

windzorI can’t say enough good things about finding your wonderful organization.  Rescuing an older Pug is such a wonderful thing for both:  Parents and adoptee!.

Windzor is a true delight – right after our grandchildren!  Our temperaments mesh so much easier than having to train a pup.  After barely two weeks we have established a great bond.  He is a true joy, easy to care for and forever ready to give unconditional love.  Hope he has good genes and lives to a ripe olde age!

Thanks a bunch – fondly, Jutta and Richard

After the loss of our 18 year old Labrador, our family took a year before thinking about adding another little creature. Our pug Basil had grown up with his sister dog since she was 10 and we knew he would have some adjusting of his own as well. When we felt the time was right again, we decided we really wanted another pug and companion for Basil.

We were just crazy about Basil and his breed, but did not want to buy from a breeder when there were so many dogs that already needed a family. Eleven years ago he was an impulse buy at a pet store for $350 and he came with a sack of dog food!  Although we think that story is pretty funny the reality now is that these beloved dogs come from a place that’s not so great.
