The Ohio Pug Rescue, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit all-volunteer organization operating a surrender, foster care, and placement program for all needy Pugs in Ohio - no matter their age, condition, or health - as funds and space allow. We have been serving in Ohio for over twenty years and we hope that if you decide a Pug is for you then you will consider adopting a rescue dog. All rescues are wonderful animals who have run into circumstances beyond their control and now find themselves in need of a new home with people who are willing to make a commitment to them for the rest of their lives. Rescuing a dog will be extremely rewarding and your new pet will love you for the rest of thier life.
Before adoption proceedings begin, all rescue Pugs are taken to a certified veterinarian for a general exam, and, when necessary, are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, receive a rabies shot, are heartworm tested, microchipped for identification, and have any other medical needs met in order to ensure the Pug's good health when it goes to its adoptive home. An adoption application must be completed and returned in order to be considered for adoption. If, after reading the Adoption Considerations, you feel a Pug is the right dog for you, fill out and submit the Online Adoption Application on this site. Your application will be reviewed and references will be checked. Adoptions are NOT done on a first-come, first served basis. Instead we make every attempt to provide you with a pug that most closely matches your request and situation. Our adoption policies are designed to ensure that each Pug is placed with a responsible person, someone prepared to make a lifelong commitment, and to avoid the kind of problems that caused the Pug to be brought into rescue in the first place. An important part of the adoption process is to match the lifestyle and needs of the adopter with the personality and behavior of each Pug. If this process seems overly strict, remember that OPR's first priority is the Pug. We keep all applications on file until a Pug becomes available, so don't get discouraged if we don't have a Pug right away. We never know when a Pug will need us. If, in the meantime, you have any changes to make to your information or want to be removed from the waiting list, please notify us.
