Special Pugs With Special Needs

Long-term and Hospice Care Pugs
Visit us on:
This page is dedicated to Pugs in foster care with serious medical issues that require either expensive diagnostic tests or ongoing treatment. Since the possibilities for adoption are limited for these dogs, they may be in long-term foster care. We rely on your generosity to help us care for these dogs who, otherwise, would face a bleak future. Once medical costs for a dog have been met, any extra contributions will go into the general medical fund.

To make a donation, click on the "Donate" button below each dog's description, then enter the name of the dog you wish to sponsor.
Chloe
Six year old Chloe has been in foster care for almost three years. She was rescued from an owner who left her in a garage for 10 days while he was on vacation. Chloe was emaciated, diabetic as a result of starvation and, because of the diabetes, blind. We didn't believe she would survive through the first night. She is now a happy, spirited little Pug who is content in her foster home and may spend the rest of her life there. Chloe is given two insulin injections daily and is on a special diet. She sees an eye specialist twice a year and requires three different eye drops. Chloe's ongoing medical care is quite expensive, and all donations are greatly appreciated. Chloe is always available for adoption should the perfect situation appear.

(We would like to thank those who have contributed to Chloe's ongoing medical expenses over the past three years. We are deeply grateful for your help.)


Archie and Kirby
Archie and Kirby are 10 week old puppies that came to PPR from a shelter in Southern Oregon. They both have eye injuries which resulted in infections. They are under the care of a specialist and hopefully their eyes will heal. UPDATE! Kirby's eye has healed and he has been adopted! Archie needs surgery on both eyes to help save his eyesight. He should be having surgery in late September. Please donate to help with Archies surgery.

Five puppies!
PPR just took in five puppies with demodex mange. They are in rough shape right now, but hopefully with lots of love and veterinary care, they will each make a full recovery. Please donate towards these precious pups medical expenses.

Billy
Billy, an adorable 1.5 yr old Pug (and possible French Bulldog) mix, was found as a stray and given to PPR by a shelter because he has demodex mange and a secondary skin infection. Regardless of his neglected condition, he is a friendly and playful little guy with an exceptional temperament. Billy is receiving medical treatment and lots of TLC in his foster home. Any donations towards Billy’s care are greatly appreciated.
