My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Simba is one of the sweetest, silliest pugs youll ever meet. This little guy is all heart: he just wants to be close to his person and soak up every bit of love he can get. Hes on the more submissive side and doesnt play much with other dogs, but he gets along with everyone just fine. Simbas dream home is one filled with attention, activity, and plenty of playtime. He loves playing fetch, enjoys long walks, and is always ready to curl up on the couch for cuddles. At night, he can sleep in a crate as long as a human is nearby, but he cant be crated during the day or in any wire crate (hell try to chew his way out). Hes brushing up on his house manners, like not jumping or begging, and hes showing just how smart and sensitive he is. This guy even knows how to use a doggie door! With the right family, Simba will be an endlessly loyal, goofy, and loving companion. He is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped as well. Simba came to us through another rescuer who saved him from a life in a crate outdoors in Mexico.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

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!

More about this rescue

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.
