Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Pugs Bunny! Pugs Bunny is a sweet, gentle boy who is ready to hop right into your heart! This handsome pup was found as a stray, and while we don't know much about his past, he's already shown us what a wonderful companion he can be. Pugs Bunny has a calm, quiet nature and a submissive personality, but also has a playful side to him. He enjoys playing with other dogs and would love a canine friend to romp around with, but he's just as happy relaxing by your side. He's looking for a patient family who will help him learn the ropes of living in a home, including potty training. Because his history is unknown, we aren't sure how he does with children or cats, so slow, supervised introductions would be recommended. Pugs Bunny is neutered, microchipped, fully vaccinated, 4DX negative, and current on ProHeart 12 and Bravecto, so he's ready to head home with his new family. Adoption fee: $400 If you think Pugs Bunny could be the perfect addition to your family, apply today at www.adoggie4you.org. Brooks is currently in Texas but can be transported to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington, Kentucky, and locations along the East Coast for an additional $250 transport fee. Due to state regulations, we cannot transport to Rhode Island or Massachusetts.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 23, 2026, 9:57 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Gus – Your New Best Friend!  Gus is a lovable Pug mix with a heart as sweet as they come. Through no fault of his own, he found himself owner surrendered to a shelter, but he's ready to leave that chapter behind and find the forever family he deserves. This gentle boy loves being close to his people and enjoys simply sharing your company. Gus is happiest when he's nearby. He's also fantastic with other dogs. Since arriving at the rescue, Gus has shown very little anxiety and has settled in nicely. Like many dogs, he'll benefit from a patient family who will give him a little time to adjust to his new surroundings.  We were told when being owner surrendered, the Gus is potty trained and does know how to use a bell to alert when needing to use the bathroom.  Gus is neutered, 4DX negative, microchipped, current on all vaccinations, and protected with ProHeart 12 and Bravecto.  His adoption fee is $400. To apply to adopt Gus, visit www.adoggie4you.org. Gus is currently located in Texas but can be transported to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington (Kentucky), and locations along the East Coast for an additional $250 transport fee.

Story
Meet KEATS, a happy-go-lucky Beagle mix looking for a home. He is the sweetest boy, always so happy to meet new friends, play and cuddle. Keats is about 4 years old and fully grown at 23 pounds. We believe he's a puggle-type mix, probably more beagle than pug but he has those adorable flippy puggle ears. Keats walks well on a leash, is a perfect passenger in the car and appears to be housebroken. Unfortunately Keats was bitten by the wrong mosquito and has tested positive for heartworms. PLEASE KEEP YOUR DOGS ON HEARTWORM PREVENTION!! It's not a severe case and he will be undergoing treatment with our vet. He's fine to go to a home and poses no threat to the health of animals or people. He does need to go to a greater Cincinnati-area home in order to accommodate his treatment which will be paid for by the rescue. Keats is fine with other dogs and loves everyone he meets. If you'd like to meet Keats, please fill out a dog adoption application at dreamhouserescue.org. We are happy to arrange a private meet with an approved adopter. You can meet Keats at our weekly adoption event, Saturday 11:30am-1:30pm at Petsmart Eastgate.  Keats will go to an adoptive home on an extended trial adoption basis, his adoption will be finalized after he completes his treatment. We only adopt dogs into homes where all current pets are spayed/neutered and current on vaccines and heartworm and flea and tick prevention. We do check veterinary references to make sure adopters are compliant with standard veterinary care. Our adoptable dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested, dewormed and current on flea and tick and heartworm prevention.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 22, 2026, 10:29 am

Story
Lily the Chug Are you looking for a small bundle of energy full of love, antics, & sass to liven up your home? Then look no farther than Lily the chug (3/4 pug, 1/4 chihuahua with a whole lotta chi attitude)! This long legged, grumpy faced little minx has adorable ears that either stand up at attention or rest crossed atop her head. Her overbite, often with her lip stuck on her teefers gives her adorable expressions. Lily has no enemies, loving to play-play-play with dogs & people of all ages & sizes. At her foster mom’s house, she cavorts with a 90# Great Pyrenees as much as she does with a pair of pugs. She’d also like to play with the cats, but she is too hyper for them & gets swatted. Lily does calm down to cuddle & actively seeks attention. Lily was a neglected outdoor pup until her surrender to God’s Dogs Rescue, so is still working on her housebreaking. She almost has it down pat with use of a doggy door. You will never experience a dull moment with this petite cutie in your life! Attributes: Housebreaking in progress. Good with doggie door HIGH energy Local adoption fee is $350(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $650 (includes transport to your area)

Story
It’s Boop Time!!! Boop is a very young adult female pug, fawn in coloration. She was recently surrendered to God’s Dogs Rescue along with her mom, crawling with fleas, irritated, swollen, itchy, scabby skin & patches of fur missing. Even at her young age, she had been bred for puppies. Now after good nutrition & a lot of TLC, Boop is a very happy & healthy dog, ready for her furever home. True to her breed, Boop is playful, vocal (she even howls with her mouth in a little “O”!), very affectionate, silly, food obsessed, thinks she runs the house. Boop loves people & dogs of all ages & sizes. She is very fond of toys, too. Because she was likely forced to live outside in her previous life, she is in the process of housebreaking. She is doing well with a doggie door. Are you ready for your heart to be snatched by a bug-eyed fur goblin who gets the zoomies every evening when you’re ready for bed? Then adopt Boop, you won’t regret your decision. Attributes: Housebreaking in progress, good with doggie door Active! Local adoption fee is $400(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $700 (includes transport to your area)

Did you say PUG??? Meet Betty! Betty is a young adult fawn pug recently surrendered to God’s Dogs Rescue along with her daughter. From being neglected, covered with fleas, inflamed skin, scabs, and missing patches of fur, she is now a happy & healthy dog ready for a home of her own. Betty is 100% pug: curious, food obsessed, wants to be with her special person/people all of the time, affectionate, playful, goofy. True to her breed, she adores all people. She gets along famously with other dogs, but is not shy to voice her opinion to them if she feels they have gotten out of line. Betty was likely forced to live outside in her previous life, so is still mastering housebreaking. She is doing well training with a doggie door. Pugs make terrific family pets! Are ready to welcome her into yours? Attributes: Housebreaking in progress Very affectionate & playful Local adoption fee is $400(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $700 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Ralphie is a spunky, snuggly, 5 year old Beagle/English Bulldog mix. He has been our family pet since he was a puppy but due to our toddler’s allergies, we are looking for the perfect home for him. He has a big, goofy personality and lives for walks, swimming, fetch and any food scraps that hit the floor. His love language is quality time as he will patiently wait on the couch for you to come snuggle at the end of the day. Ralph would do great with an individual, couple or family that is active and excited to make Ralphie a permanent family member.
