Jack is 7
months old and is a ball of energy. Jack is looking for a home
with a playmate to help him run off his puppy energy. Jack is
still in the chewing puppy phase so he needs a home committed
to training him to be a good pug. Jack loves other dogs and kids
and will make a wonderful pug for a special family. |

| Midgy & Pauly |
|
|
|
Midgy, Black
Female 5 years old. Suffering from severe neglect. Midgy is
malnourished and underweight. Her toe nails have grown into her
pads on her feet, Midgy's skin condition is as bad as SNPR
Alumni Molly's was, Her head is covered in crystalized TOUGH
skin and her feet and legs are bad as well. Midgy has a skin
infection over 80% of her body. Her tongue has nerve damage from
the sun, so it sticks out like SNPR Alumni Buffy's did. Due to
breeding, her nipples hang very low, and from living outside her
ears are infected and are as bad as ear infections get (Per Dr.
Christensen) He is not even sure she has hearing right now. All
that being said, she is so cute it is ridiculous. Her bottom
teeth do that thing where they stick out and hold her lips, and
she wags her tail at the slightest bit of human contact. She
wants to give kisses and love on anyone who gets close enough to
her. The vet said she will have a tough month ahead with
treatments, but he is optimistic she will make a full recovery.
Today Midgy was spayed, got a medicated bath, her nails cut,
meds for her awful skin and ear infections, and all of her
shots. We believe we will be able to "heal her outside's" and
now we are looking for a special family to help "heal her
heart".
4/29 Midgy aka Missy aka Miss M
was VERY agitated/fidgety yesterday and would not sit still or
stop crying/whining. We took her over to our Vet and he felt
something funny where her bladder should be. He took an x-ray
and either she has a HUGE lining of her bladder from multiple
bladder infections that she hadn’t been treated for, OR she has
a small bladder stone, OR she has a UTI now, OR something else
is wrong. The x-rays were not the best, as she still was just
spayed on Friday. He took a urine sample and will have the
results tomorrow. She also has not eaten since she has been in
rescue and we couldn’t get her to take one of her meds as she
did not want to eat anything. We have gotten a liquid of that
medication now, but she needs to take it with food. Her foster
mom says that she seems to be a little better today and isn’t
pacing as much. She will continue to watch her and if needed
make another trip to our Vet.
She is super
sweet, loves to give kisses, knows that the furniture is the
comfiest place to sleep and gets along great with other dogs and
cats. Please send good thoughts her way… and that she starts
feeling better soon. |

| Pauly, Fawn
Male 5 years old. Suffering from Severe neglect. Pauly is
malnourished and underweight. Pauly has lived out doors his
entire life used for breeding. He is covered in an untreated
yeast infection that is pretty severe on his legs and in his
ears. (Poor Pauly had to get shots in all his legs to find one
tender enough to get an I.V. in!)Pauly was given a medicated
bath today, got neutered and all his shots, and was given meds
for his severe ear infections. Pauly came into rescue with Midgy
and has had a rough 5 years. Both of these dogs have been
neglected and are in desperate need of human contact. Pauly's
tail wags and he runs over to give anyone that will let him big
pug kisses. He has such a beautiful face and his big round eyes
are just heartbreaking. Pauly now wants to retire his outdoor
breeding life and snuggle up to his humans on the couch and even
the people bed!! Please consider adopting one (or both) of these
special pugs. They made their way to rescue and their future
looks good. Now all we need is a hero who will help!
5/12 After 5 years of being outside and used for
breeding, SNPR is pleased to announce that Pauly has been
adopted into a wonderful home. Pauly is still battling an ear
infection and terribly tough skin and coat, but we are confident
that Pauly will thrive with the special Hitchcock family. We
knew when we picked up Pauly and Midgy that we would need to
find Heros to adopt them and we are so thankful to Jackie
Hitchcock and her family for seeing Pauly's beautiful face and
wanting to heal all of his "wounds". Pauly is already
loving being on the people furniture and playing in the house
with his pug brothers and sisters.
We hope a home as special as the Hitchcock home comes along for
Midgy too! Midgy continues her healing process at a
special foster home who says she is making great strides in
recovery. Midgy loves furniture as well and is loving
being an inside pug! Please consider showing Midgy how
special she is and open your home and heart up to her. |
| |
| Midgy and
Pauly's vet expenses will be over $1000.00 dollars for their
initial vet visit of spay/neuters, shots,
medicated baths, creams, skin scrape tests, ear flushes, fecal
exams, embedded nail beds, medications for skin and ear
infections, etc. With Midgy's treatment expected to last over
several weeks, we have to ask for help. Please know any money
donated toward Midgy and Pauly is tax deductible and will be
used for their ongoing care. SNPR could never take in pugs with
such medical needs without the continued support of all of you
who mean so much to us. We are very grateful for anything you
can do. Thank you so much! |

|
| Pudge is an 8
or 9 year old adorable pug who wants to cuddle and lead a very
distinguished senior life. He has been injured several
times by children in the home playing too rough, so is looking
for a child-free home. He loves to go for long walks and play at
the dog park and is a big mama's boy. |

Meet Bennie and Baby Dog. Baby Dog is 5 years old and Bennie
is 4. Both are sweet as can be, and love to give kisses.
They are really bonded and Bennie follows Baby Dog
around. Baby Dog is more of the boss, and loves to "run the
show". They sleep together, follow each other around, and play
together all the time. They are really sweet and loving and
love toys and chewies. They give a lot of love too.
Bennie - Adoption Pending!
Baby Dog is still available for adoption. |

| Aki |
|
|
|
Aki is an
adorable one year old female pug who loves to play and gets
along great with other energetic dogs. She has a persistent head
tilt, which the vet says is probably a result of a past
condition or something she was born with, and may now be a
chronic but harmless trait. It sure doesn't slow her down any!
This loveable little girl needs a forever family that can give
her lots of attention and playtime. |

| Sophie -
Medical hold |
04-08 Sophie is looking better! 04-08 Sophie is looking better!
|
|
Sophie came to us from Lied. We
received a phone call saying they had a little black pug that
their vet had deemed unadoptable, as they believed that she may
have had ringworm. She was picked up by Animal Control as a stray
in a field. How this adorable little girl made her way into a
field is beyond us.
Sophie is currently being boarded
in isolation, until our Vet can determine exactly what is wrong
with her and treat her. She has tons of spots all over her
entire body, some raised lumps and some just flat. If our Vet
cannot figure out what it is, we will have to take Sophie to a
dermatologist. She has a lot of spots missing fur. She will
also need her shots and will need to be spayed in a month or
so.
Our vet believes that Sophie is
about 4-5 months old. She is just the cutest little thing –
even with those raised bumps on her face. When she is not
playing, she loves to cuddle and give you kisses. Please check
back for more details on her condition.
Once again, we are asking our
supporters for help with Sophie. As you may know, each pug that
we get from Lied costs us an average of $500-$800. With Sophie
we are estimating her bill to be even much higher than that.
One look at this precious little girl and your heart just breaks
wondering how her condition got this bad. We will do everything
we need to in order to get Sophie in excellent condition, so
that she can be the little black diva pug we know she will
become. Please help us make Sophie better and send a donation
today. SNPR and Sophie thank you in advance.
3/21 –
Sophie went to see a dermatologist today. She had a biopsy done
in 4 different areas with the hopes that we will find out what
is wrong with her and where to start with her treatment- so we
can get this little girl on the mend soon. She was also doing a
lot of sneezing when we had her, so we are not sure if she is
coming down with Kennel Cough or not, but to be safe, she is on
medicine now for that. We should have the test results back in
the next 7-10 days.
3/27 –
We heard back from the dermatologist today. Not the news we
were looking for, but at least Sophie might have a chance. What
she has is Mastocytosis, which is an incredibly rare condition
and will be treated, for now, with oral medication. We are
hoping that the oral medication will be all she needs to get
this cleared up. Sophie is not contagious, and acts like a
normal puppy, but she will need to be on this medication for
quite a long time. The bad news is that our dermatologist
cannot give us a prognosis of the outcome, as she has consulted
with other colleagues and with over 30 years of experience, they
have only seen this 3 or 4 times. Please keep Sophie in your
thoughts and send her good vibes. We are really hoping this
precious little girl is a survivor and will be able to fight
with everything she has to overcome this and be able to live a
full life, but, at this point, we are unsure of her future,
except for the fact that SNPR will do everything we possibly can
to help her.
Sophie is lucky
to be in the care of the rescue, but we desperately need your
help with Sophie's care. Sophie has already tallied up a vet
bill of close to $1000.00 dollars and that is without her spay,
or continued care which will be expensive as well. With her
prognosis being open and unsure, we must ask for your help.
Sophie is an active 5 month old happy pug who was just diagnosed
with some bad news... And we hope from this day on the news gets
better and better.
4/08 - Sophie went for a recheck today and the vet was pleased
to see how well she is looking-her bumps have gone down a lot
since she first came to SNPR. Sophie will stay on her medicine
schedule, and we are optimistic this will continue to work for
her. Sophie still doesn't let anything phase her-she acts like
a normal naughty puppy, and even barked at all the big dogs in
the vet's waiting room! New photos added to the gallery!
5/03 Sophie had a
recheck today and her vet was mostly pleased with her progress.
However, Sophie has a couple of stubborn bumps on her face that
have reappeared, so she will be adding another medication (hydroxyzine)
to her schedule, and must go back for another check up in a few
weeks to see how this additional medication is helping. She is
also up to 9.5 lbs-right on schedule for her! New photos have
been added to the gallery! |

| Zachary |
|
|
|
Zach was adopted from SNPR two
years ago when Zach was 5 years old. Zach's mom who adopted
him is now pregnant and having trouble with Zach marking in
the house. Zach is a sweet pug with a great personality and
simply needs someone who is committed to teaching Zach to be
a good boy and giving him the security required for positive
discipline. Zach needs a family who will work with him and
not scold or hurt him for his potty issues. We are pretty
sure that before being adopted two years ago Zach was
abused, SNPR needs to know that Zach's next home will
be loving and understanding, and will make the commitment
needed to being his forever home. The security of a forever
home may be all he needs. (And of course, lots and lots of
kisses and hugs!) |

Bubba and Cleo came to SNPR
from a kill shelter in California. Two special CA people
sprung them from the shelter and met us in Barstow. They
are mother and son and would like to stay together. Cleo is
10 years old and has limited vision and hearing, Bubba is 5 years old and really
needs to make a New Year’s resolution to start working out.
Bubba has a skin tag on his back leg that will need to be
removed and Cleo has a mole on her lower eyelid and a
suspicious lump on her right side, both will also need to be
removed. Please check back for details on this pair. |
2/26 – It has been 41 days since they came into
rescue. Cleo started bleeding the Friday after I got them.
After blood tests, urine tests and x-rays, it was determined
that Cleo, who we were told was spayed, was in heat!
Our vet recommended letting her go thru her cycle and then
spaying her. After 30 days and her still bleeding, our vet
decided that the risks of spaying her while in heat were far
less than the risks of letting her continue to be in heat.
Yesterday Cleo went in for her surgeries. She was spayed,
had a suspicious lump removed from her right side (that has
7 staples), a lump removed from her right back leg and the
mole on her upper right lid and lower left lid were also
removed. She came thru like a trooper!
Bubba is doing great. The icky long skin tag he had was
snipped off at the first Vet visit and has healed nicely.
They are just both super sweet with not one mean bone in
their bodies! They get along super with their foster
brothers and sisters. |

Wink |
|
|
|
Wink is a 3 year old pug
who was recently found with a severe eye injury. Poor little
guy had a choke chain on that was two sizes too small and a
massive injury that required the removal of his eye. We
named him "WINK" because this sweeties little expression now
looks like he is winking at you all the time. Wink made it
through the surgery and was also neutered and given his
shots. Wink is on an antibiotic to make sure his incision
heals cleanly but is ready to forget about what was
apparently a tough start to his life and move onto his
forever home with a wonderful family fit for this precious pug!!
The vet is confident that Wink will have no ill effects due
to the eye removal. His other eye is healthy and in great
shape. Please fill out the application today
though so we can get Wink settled into his new life. |
We
are not sure if Wink is a squatty pug or pug mix...but if he
is a mix, he favors the pug look and characteristics of a
pug. He is sweet, tiny, and not at all affected by the fact
he had a bad accident that caused him to lose his eye. |

Brutus - Puggle |
|
|
|
Brutus is a 1 1/2 year old
male Puggle with lots and lots of energy. Brutus is looking
for a forever home with a yard and room to roam so he can
work off some of his energy. Brutus is a sweet boy and such
a cutie! Please check back soon for more info and pictures.
He is so very cute. Brutus's foster mom tells us he is very
hyper and into everything. Brutus goes and goes non-stop.
(The energizer bunny has nothing on this Puggle.) Brutus
will need a yard and an active family committed to training
and teaching him how to burn off his energy without "playing
Nascar" in the house 15 hours straight ! |
