Rescue & Adoption

Pugs needing homes

These Pugs are looking for families through rescues and foster groups we trust. Help us spread the word.

Adopt or foster Need to rehome a Pug?

Adoption happens through each rescue, not through Milwaukee Pugs. Each Pug's button takes you to the rescue's own page, where you can apply and ask questions. Listings can change quickly, so the rescue's site is always the latest word.

How adoption works

From "aww" to home

  1. Find a Pug. Browse the Pugs above, save your favorites to your shortlist, and read their rescue's listing.
  2. Apply with the rescue. Each rescue has its own application. Not sure where to start? Tell us what you're looking for and we'll point you to the right rescue.
  3. Meet and talk. Rescues usually check references, set up a meet-and-greet, and sometimes a home visit, to make sure it's a good match for everyone.
  4. Welcome home. The rescue sets the adoption fee, which helps cover vet care. Then the snoring begins.

Can't adopt? Fostering saves lives too, and so does sharing a Pug's post.

Rescues & foster groups

Can't adopt right now? Fostering, donating, or sharing a post helps just as much.
