The Great Pug Adventure!!
PPRA and another pug
rescue have been called upon from Green Mountain Pug
Rescue to help rescue pugs that are coming into our
organizations due to the closing of a mid
west breeder. PPRA is taking in 12 pugs. They will
have rabies and required inoculations, be
neutered/spayed and receive any other medical
intervention that may be necessary. They are being
transported to a meeting location so that the rescues
may pick them up. This is a TEAM effort with rescue and
entails much coordination and effort. Without this
undertaking, the innocent lives of these pugs would be
in jeopardy. They will be arriving soon and will be
going into foster care where they will be evaluated
and will be provided a safe and loving temporary home.
They will be available for adoption soon so please keep
checking our website if you are interested in adopting
one of these precious puglets. If you are interested in
adopting one of these pugs, please complete our online
application at
www.ppra.org
They have already been through so much in their short
lives and they need stability. We expect that our vet
bills will be high from this group. Any donation is
greatly appreciated. This has been a very busy year for
PPRA and we expect 2009 to be even busier. We at
PPRA thank you for your interest and support in pug
rescue.
THE GREAT PUG ADVENTURE
In December and again in January, PPRA was asked
by Green Mountain Pug Rescue to help take in pugs
from a closing Puppy Mill in the Midwest. There were
30 pugs who needed to come east to get into
rescues. PPRA was able to take in 12 pugs. (BB,
Lily, Hope, Maggie, Lil Bad, Swinger, Buddy, Ebony,
Cutie, Cracker Jack, Harley and Annie) PPRA, like
the other rescues, paid to get them updated on
vaccines, spayed/neutered, dentals/extractions and
transportation. Some of those pugs needed additional
medical care for eye infections, ear infections,
dental infections, luxating patellas and Leggs
Perthes Disease. Our total cost for these twelve
pugs was over $7000! Please click on the link to

In January 2009, PPRA was again called upon by
Green Mountain Pug Rescue to help with six more pugs
that needed to come to rescue from a closing Puppy
Mill. PPRA took 4 of these puppas (Scout, Roxie,
Shelli Lynn and Mr. Peaches) Again, PPRA paid to
have these pugs get updated on vaccines,
spayed/neutered, dentals/extractions and
transportation. Scout needed additional care for
his eyes. Their total cost was over $1500! Please

In less than a month, PPRA was able to help
16 pugs start their new lives on the East
Coast! We have placed almost all the pugs from
both runs! In order to continue to help pugs in
need, we are trying to raise $8500 to replace
the monies into our medical fund. We hope you
will consider donating to help PPRA continue on
it's mission.....to help the precious pugs of
this world!!
