Greater Boise Pug Rescue & Placement Group, Inc.'s adoption process

Additional adoption info

All prospective families must fill out an application and have a home visit by two members of our placement committee. A summary of the home visit and the application are provided to our Board of Directors who must approve the applicant. Once the Board approves the family, a meet & greet is scheduled to see if the Pug & family are a good fit. The family is required to enter into a Placement Agreement with our non-profit and an adoption fee is charged. The fee will depend upon the age and health of the Pug. The family agrees to attend a minimum of four (4) Pug meet-ups throughout the first year of placement as well as follow-up communication made with phone calls between the foster committee and new owner.

About Greater Boise Pug Rescue & Placement Group, Inc.

We are the Greater Boise Pug Rescue and Placement Group, d.b.a. Pug Pals, Inc. In 2007, a small group of people who participate in the Boise Pug Meet-Up Group saw the need to organize and provide rescue services for Pugs and their crosses. In 2009, the group reorganized and began operating as a non-profit business and received 501(c)(3) status in 2010. As it stands now, we are funded by donations and our group is run entirely by volunteers.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
