Meet our Adoptable Pugs!
Due to the high-volume of inquiries our all-volunteer group receives, please don’t inquire about particular Pugs unless you have already submitted an application and successfully completed the application process. Due to the extensive time commitment to process an application, each adoption application requires a $25 non-refundable application processing fee which is collected when completing the application process. We appreciate your continued support!
PLEASE NOTE: If you are applying to foster or adopt, and you currently have pets, we require all canine/feline pets to be current on all vaccinations, heartworm prevention medication and be spayed or neutered, unless directed otherwise by your veterinarian. Failure to comply will result in a delay of processing your application until we receive the updated records. We thank you in advance for your understanding!

Adoption Fee Schedule (Effective 8/15/2023):
Pugs under 2 Years Old: $450 + 6% Kentucky Sales Tax (effective 7/1/18) - $477

Please Note:
Our expenses average 4 times the amount of the adoption fee per dog - meaning we have to generate $3.00 in donations for every $1.00 in adoption fees.
We are an all-volunteer organization that functions only on the money we raise through donations and adoption fees - we only spend the money we raise in a responsible manner to help the Pugs.
We often don't know exactly how old the Pugs are. We use our Vet's expert opinion to determine approximate age in these scenarios.
It will be your responsibility to travel to pick up your Pug.
Please understand that we sometimes have a waiting list of applicants. We compare incoming Pugs to the needs of already approved adopters on our waiting list and offer incoming Pugs to those adopters first.
If you are approved to adopt through BPR, your application will be active for 6 months from the date your application was submitted.

Status: Available
Adoption Fee: $175 + tax
Temperament: Meet Molly #580! Molly is looking for a fresh start. Her owner could no longer care for her, so they made the difficult decision to surrender her, and we are happy to offer her a loving second chance. Molly is an 11 year old Puggle who is sweet as can be. She likes belly rubs before getting up in the morning and loves to play tug-of-war. She will grab a toy as soon as she sees her human stand up because she is ready to play. Molly gets along with other humans and dogs, like to take walks and be outside, and she is a quick learner. Molly even knows to bring her toys back inside when she is asked! Could Molly be the perfect fit for your family? Be sure to mention her name in your application.

She enjoys spa day and still has some spunk and playful energy for 14 years old. She even walks well on a leash and is described as outgoing and friendly.

Butters has a lot of energy and is reported to get along well with other animals, including cats. Butters loves to expend energy by going on walks and playing in the yard. Butters has great house manners as long as a regular routine of potty breaks is maintained. Butters is best for somebody that can give him the exercise he needs as he is a young and energetic little pug.

BONDED PAIR
Names: Whiskey #649 & Harper Lee #652
Gender/Age:
Male / Estimated Age: 8 years
Female / Estimated Age: 6 years
Status: Available
Adoption Fee: $700 + tax
Temperament:
Are you looking for the perfect love story? Than look no further than this adorable pug couple with their own wild love story. Because what great couple doesn’t have that?
Their owner did not think they were bonded, surrendered Whiskey, and kept Harper Lee. Turns out they ARE bonded. Harper Lee was unwell without her best buddy. Soooo, she was surrendered as well and they were reunited. The picture you see above is of that reunion.
Their foster shares that they are the absolute sweetest pair. Whiskey is very relaxed and just wants to be by you. He does mark in the house on occasion, but this has greatly dropped off since being neutered and is still being worked on. Both are pretty much potty trained. Harper can have an accident every once in awhile. They are both playful. Whiskey really likes to carry a toy around and Harper just likes to follow along. They do great on walks. Friendly with all dogs and good with kids. Whoever adopts them will be very lucky! They are pretty easy going and have lots of love to give.
If you think this adorable couple might be the perfect match for your family be sure to mention them both in your application or if you are already on the waiting list, reach out to the adoption coordinator for more information.
