Meet Amore! We estimate this beautiful girl to be just under 2 years old. While she is young and active, Amore is still a bit timid and learning how to fully embrace life as a pampered pug. She came to us from Californias Central Valley alongside another pug we believe to be her sister, Esme (coming soon). Based on our observations, Amore was likely kept primarily outdoors, which means potty training and cozy nights on a soft bed are all new experiences for her. Amore is shy but curious. Once she feels comfortable, she will happily trot over and curl into your arms. She truly melts when being held and loves gentle cuddles. She is doing well with other dogs and cats, though she has not begun engaging in play yet. Because she is eager to please, we are confident that with patience, consistency, and love in her forever home, she will continue to grow in both her training and socialization. In true pug fashion, Amore wants to be underfoot during the day and snuggled close at night, ideally sleeping by your head. She is perfectly content lounging at your feet with a favorite bone and especially adores children, getting adorably wiggly when they sit on the floor with her. Amore is scheduled to be spayed on Tuesday, February 17, and will also be vaccinated and microchipped.

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.
