Meet Rigby! Rigby came to us as a stray after being found near a homeless encampment, and when the shelter couldnt find him a home, we were happy to step in. Hes a sweet little pug mix (possibly with some Chihuahua) with a gentle heart and a playful spirit. His longer snout and taller frame makes him perfect for outdoor activities and longer exercise stints! Rigby is currently in foster care with both large and small dogs and is doing great with everyone. Hes also wonderful with young kids, loves to play, and enjoys being part of the action. Hes still polishing up his potty-training skills and making good progress. He's happy in a crate as well. Rigby is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to find a loving forever home where he can feel safe, cherished, and spoiled the way he deserves.

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.
