BJ was found wandering the streets of North Miami. He was completely tick infested and had a dry and patchy coat. From the moment I saw BJ, I felt needed. What a great feeling to be needed. In return BJ has given Shelby and I lots of love and companionship. Isn’t life wonderful?!
Ivy & Yogi
Hi everyone, my name is Ivy (crime fighter).
I was adopted by my new family on August 9, 2009. Since then I’ve been the happiest pug alive. My new family loves me very much and takes very good care of me. My new daddy Ralph and my new mommy Champa treat me like the little princess I am and give me lots of attention.
It’s a good thing my new brother is not jealous. Yogi my brother is very laid back and chills out, he doesn’t bother me at all. In fact I always want to play with him, but he doesn’t really want to be bothered by me at all.
All he really wants to do is eat and sleep, he is rather boring but at least he gives me some companion when my parents are not around.
I love my new family very much. They take me out for walks everyday and every Saturday if it’s not raining or too hot my parents take me to the dog park so we can socialize with other dogs. I couldn’t ask for a better family.
What a blessing she is! She has just taken over our home and we have fallen totally in love with her… including my other pug, Monkey who can’t seem to do anything without Mia kissing him constantly.
She is such a snuggle bug and does not care if you are sleeping or not because when it is time to get up and eat in the morning, she will lick your whole face until you do. She loves being under the covers to sleep, chew toys, going to Pet Smart and the dog park!!!
Her howl is one of a kind, her love is endless and I am so thankful for her… she is spoiled rotten and loving every minute of it.
Thanks so much for bringing Mia into our lives.

Our story starts a little differently than others. Most people who come to Compassionate Pug Rescue – rescue a pug. That is where our story takes a different twist. My daughter Shelby and I were looking for a companion for our six year old pug Sassy. We contacted Marcia who we had met before through Shelby’s mom who is active with CPR on a Saturday and on Monday we received a call to our surprise.
We were looking for a four year old and it seemed like Marcia found a perfect fit. Rio now named Tank was going to be surrendered due to his owner Jose having to move to London for employment. Jose was looking for a loving home; you could hear in his voice and read through his emails that he wasn’t happy about the surrender. We spoke numerous times throughout the week and on Saturday we picked up Rio.
When we brought Rio home there was a loving environment waiting. Sassy was really interested and playing with her new friend. Rio was well taken care off and a tad bit over weight. He was a little unresponsive to his name so we watched him for a few days. He was stumbling around, and barreling into things like a little tank…hence the new name “Tank.”
He is very playful and loving. He and Sassy play very well together.
Tank keeps us on our toes and no food is sacred!!!!!!
We are grateful to Marcia and Jose’ for the opportunity to allow us to add Tank to our family.
Brian, Shelby and Sassy
