Maggie came to us as an owner surrender due to landlord issues. She is a young pug mix, not sure with what, and can be shy at first but then opens up and loves to be held. She is playful with other dogs, ignores cats and would love a yard to be able to run around in. She has not had any accidents in her foster home, is trying to figure out the dog door (it's a little scary). Leash walking is new to her, but she will get the hang of it soon. She may not be your typical looking pug, but she will definitely be your shadow just like a pug! If you are open to giving her a chance, she will reward you with kisses and lots of love.

After an application is received, we will reach out to schedule an interview. If the applicant is a renter, we will require landlord approval. If the applicant has a yard, we will require a digital walkthrough of the fence line. Once approved, the adopter is eligible to connect with the foster of the dog they're interested in for a meet and greet. If all goes well, the adopter can take the dog home!

Bay Area Pug Project (BAPP) is more than just a rescue - it’s a movement.
California suffers from a backyard breeding epidemic, and pugs are sadly one of the outputs. Pug rescues across the nation come to our state to save pugs from unsafe, unwanted, and undesirable situations, and there can never be enough help to tackle this crisis.
Founded by a group of experienced and passionate volunteers, BAPP was born from a shared love of pugs and a desire to build a strong, informed community around the breed. We believe that true rescue goes beyond saving dogs—it means educating the public, advocating for responsible ownership, and collaborating with other groups for maximum impact.
We’re dedicated to supporting brachycephalic breed enthusiasts and the communities where neglect or limited education are common, offering resources and guidance to promote better care and health outcomes.
Pugs are more than cute snorts and curly tails—they’re complex little souls who deserve to be understood and cared for by informed and pug-obsessed homes like ours. Join us in making a difference.
