My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Four-month-old pug mix Princess Rosalinda (known as “Rosie” to her foster family) is playful, mischievous, curious, and outgoing. You could say that Princess Rosalinda, who was found after being dumped in Dallas, is fully embracing the puppy life! Her favorite things include chewing on toys and bones, playing with other dogs, eating a full meal and asking for a second helping, burrowing under blankets, going for walks, jumping and running in the yard, and cuddling. Princess Rosalinda is highly social and wants to be near a person or another dog at all times. She is working on her housetraining, learning about the dog door, and is content to hang out in her crate as long as she has another dog in there with her. Her ideal forever home will have a securely fenced yard, at least one other friendly dog, and at least one person who is home most of the time to provide companionship, socialization, and training. If you’d like to add this affectionate and energetic little lady to your family, apply for Princess Rosalinda at dfwpugs.com!

We are a foster based rescue, only approved applicants can meet and greet with our available pugs on a one on one basis.

More about this rescue

DFW Pug Rescue Club, Inc., (DFWPRC) was incorporated in July 1997 as a non-stock, non-profit corporation for the rescue, care, and placement of unwanted, mistreated, or homeless pugs in Texas.

DFWPRC is the largest pug rescue organization in the United States and has rescued and placed thousands of huggable, squeezable, absolutely adorable pugs — we rescue 5-10 pugs a week.

We rescue ALL pugs regardless of age or medical condition. Since we rescue ALL pugs, our veterinary care is our biggest on-going expense and we average approximately $250,000 a year in veterinary expenses. This amount is after our veterinary care clinics provide deep discounts. 100% of all funds donated to DFW Pug Rescue are used to pay for Veterinary care.

All pugs rescued by DFWPRC are taken immediately to the vet where they are examined, tested (and treated) for heartworm, vaccinated, sterilized, microchipped and rabies shots administered before being placed in a foster or permanent home.

70% of the rescue pugs are heart worm positive and all are treated at DFWPRC’s expense.

DFWPRC is an all-volunteer non-profit organization and do not have a staging area to hold our rescue pugs so we depend on the generosity of our volunteers to provide foster homes until permanent homes can be located.

All pugs must be picked up in Dallas/Fort Worth area by their new families — no pugs are shipped. We adopt in the state of Texas and to the neighboring states of New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana only.

The majority of our pugs are owner surrender due to military deployment, death, divorce, relocation, new baby, marriage, travel, and estate placements.

DFWPRC is not affiliated or sponsored by any national or local breed clubs.

We rescue more males than females (10 to 1), more fawns than blacks (40 to 1), and the average of our rescue pugs is 4-years old. The average life span of a pug is between 14 – 18 years.

We maintain a Certificate of Good Standing with the Texas State Comptroller’s Office. DFW Pug Rescue Club, Inc. is a non-profit corporation with Federal Tax Exemption as a public charity under Section 501 (c) 3 of the Internal Revenue Code.
