Story
Gonzo is an adorable, almost 5-month-old Pug with all the classic Pug charm — happy, snuggly, playful, and full of that spunky little personality everyone loves! This sweet boy’s absolute favorite thing in the world is being with his person. He’s a total shadow dog who will happily follow you everywhere. When he’s not soaking up snuggles, he’s busy entertaining himself with toys — crinkly toys, squeaky toys, bouncy toys… if it’s a toy, Gonzo loves it! He’s great with other dogs and kids, making him an easy fit for many types of families. Gonzo is the whole pug-package and is ready to wiggle his way into his forever home! Local adoption fee is $400(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $800 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Meet Audra! 🐾💛 This adorable 4-year-old, 18-pound pug is as sweet as they come. Audra was found stray with an abscess on her back, but it’s been flushed, treated, and she’s now on antibiotics — and through it all, she’s remained the sweetest little girl. Audra has a fantastic personality and temperament. She’s gentle, loving, and so grateful for every bit of care and attention she receives. Her cute pug charm and warm demeanor make her easy to fall in love with. Audra is ready for a safe, cozy forever home where she’ll finally get the love she deserves. 💛🐾

Story
Meet Lumi! 🤍 Lumi is a gorgeous 10-month-old, 15-pound pug mix with the sweetest, softest heart. She can be a little shy at first, but once she feels safe, her gentle and affectionate personality starts to shine. Lumi is still learning that people can be comforting and kind, and she’s making wonderful progress. She enjoys being picked up, cuddled, and talked to softly, and she’ll absolutely blossom in a patient, loving home. Lumi is house trained and loves other dogs—she needs a confident dog to show her the ropes in her forever home. She’s a loyal girl just waiting for her forever person to bond with. *Not available for transport out of state. Must be adopted locally to the San Antonio, TX area.
