My story

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

Hi everyone! My name's Hondo, like Honda but with an O! I have a wandering soul, because I was out there on my own as a stray before finding myself in the dog pound. It was really scary because I didn't know what would happen to me! I was in rough shape from all that time on my own, with some cuts and scrapes, and I was nervous as can be. Thankfully, I ended up coming to this rescue, and now they're helping me find my very own forever home. I can't believe it! I feel so lucky to meet you, and I promise when we meet in person, I'll be the best boy ever. I love to cuddle and give kisses and am a total sweetie pie, as the staff here like to say. I also do well with other dogs! I'm only about 5.5 years old so I still have lots of spunk and energy and would love to play all day with you. I'd do well in a home with an active owner who will take me on lots of walks and give me all the attention I deserve.

Here's a little something I wrote to tell you why I'd be a good dog for you:

If you're looking for a friend who's loyal and true,
Look no further, 'cause Hondo's the one for you!
I'll be your cuddle buddy, your pal, your best friend,
With me by your side, the fun will never end!
So take me home, and you'll quickly see,
There's no better match than you and me!

So...what do you say? Please inquire about me today! Love, Hondo!

More about this rescue

Pug Nation Rescue of Los Angeles is a registered 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to the rescue, care, and placement of abandoned, neglected, unwanted, displaced, and abused pugs. Our goal is to find every homeless pug a forever home; if we cannot do that, we pledge to provide a comfortable and loving place for sick or unwanted pugs to live out their lives. Our Board of five and numerous volunteers are passionate about Pug Rescue and live by our motto of “One Pug at a Time”. We feel that through our efforts we can change many of these forgotten Pug’s lives. In order to find our Pugs a home as soon as possible, we hold at least three adoption fairs a month and also organize a number of fundraising events, including the annual Pugtacular festival and Legendary Bingo at Hamburger Mary’s in West Hollywood. These events and on-line fundraising have provided the money to help pay for vet treatments, medicine and loving care at our Pug Station. We rely on the generosity of our supporters through donations and participation in our fundraising activities. If you would like to make a donation, find out about the next event, become a volunteer, foster, or adopt your own rescue pug, you are in the right place! You can also follow us on Facebook and twitter, there is always something going on and new pugs needing your help.
