Harley (# 349) is 3 1/2 years old. He was surrendered to KPR by the Kentucky
Humane Society. His eyes were very red because of an
eye infection, but with the proper medication it cleared
up and he is looking as handsome as ever now. He no
longer has to have the eye meds and his vision is excellent.
He is totally housebroken
and minds very well. He just wants to be near everyone
at all times and gets along well with the other dogs.
Harley's Christmas wish is to find his forever family!

Hank is housebroken, but has a tendency to mark if he
smells other dogs.

Cassie (# 447) is 2 1/2 years old
and a real sweetheart. She loves to be right by her
foster mom's side at all times. She loves to sit and be
snuggled! She also LOVES to play with her two foster dog
brothers. She ignores the cats, and came from a family
with children - so she is an all around great dog! She
is housebroken, and will go into a crate without
complaint, but usually requires a little food motivation
to get in - she would rather be with the people!

King (#314) is a
beautiful 2 year old that had a tough time before
he came to KPR. With the help of some loving, patient
fostering, he is now enjoying life and has become a fun
loving and happy guy!
King is comfortable in his crate, although he much
prefers to sleep on the big bed with his humans and be a
part of the family. King is housebroken, but due to some
trauma to his hip/pelvic area in his previous life, when
he gets excited around his humans, he does have a little
leakage issue. He is making progress on this and just
needs a patient, loving person to continue to work with
him. King is having a wonderful time playing with his
three human siblings in his forever home.

Princess Sophia Maria
Pug! ( # 339) This adorable
little pug
was attacked by her breeder's Boxer when she was just 6
weeks old and weighed just 2 lbs. She suffered a skull fracture and lost her eye due to
the attack. When the breeder found out
the extent of her injuries and cost of the surgery, he
wanted to have her put to sleep. Thankfully the
Vet took responsibility for Sophia, performing the
initial surgery and paying for her medical expenses and
care. She then surrendered her
to KPR where Sophia could find a forever home.
Sophia endured multiple
surgeries, but is now doing wonderful!
She is very smart, outgoing and fearless! She has no idea she is
"different"!!! She
loves everyone she meets, both humans and animals.
Just as much as she loves to "romp and stomp", she also
loves to snuggle and kiss. Sophia is a very
special, precious little puggie girl!

Rosie (#149) is a black female that is 4 years old.
She is an alpha and the other dogs in the family ganged
up on her and beat her up. She is still under vet care
and still needs another surgery. Her owners realized
that the best thing for Rosie was to surrender her to KPR
so we could find her a home without other dogs. She is a
sweetie and loves to be with her foster Mom.

Kramer
(# 354) is a 6 year old, 18 pound, fawn angel who is as
sweet as she can be. She was surrendered by a loving
family that no longer had the time to care for her. She is a very quiet and
well-mannered pug. She loves being near you. She seems
to always be one step behind no matter where you go.
She's calm, but has a very playful side as well. When
Kramer's ready to play, she'll gently tug on you or a
toy to get your attention.
Kramer does very well with all the members of her foster
family, including children, cats and her pug foster
sister. She's doing very well with housetraining. She
wants you to go with her or to walk her in order to go
potty. She's an itchy little pug that will require
cortisone shots and a daily Benadryl, but with a little
adjustment to her food, she's doing a lot better.
Kramer's left ear also needs more attention than normal.
All it takes is a few more cleanings than a normal dog's
ear. Of course, all of the love Kramer gives is worth
the little extra time.

You may think I'm sticking my tongue out at you, but I

and I will follow your every step. I'll sit for you when
you offer me a treat. I am housetrained, just keep me on
a schedule and I am good to go. I am a sweet boy but I
can be jealous if another fur baby gets attention. So I
really need to be in a home where I will be "top dog"! I
am up to date on all my shots and I have already been
neutered. I am ready to come live with you forever and
be your little shadow.

Hi my name is Ernie
(#446) and I am just about perfect! Not only am I super
cute, but I am housebroken. I was dumped on the side of
the road with another dog pal when my owner decided he
didn't want me anymore. The nice people at KPR pulled me
out of the shelter and here I am! The shelter
estimates that I'm about 2 years old. I weigh 17.5
pounds. My foster mom thinks I'm a great guy. I
have wonderful manners, am crate trained, like other
dogs and am really friendly. I have two spots on my coat
with some scabbing. The vet says this was caused by flea
allergy dermatitis. The good news is that the fleas are
gone and I'm eating good food now, so my coat will be in
good shape in no time. I hope that you decide that I'd
be a perfect fit in your life. My foster mom can't say
enough good things about me and I bet you'll feel the
same way too!

Bart (# 351) is the
essence of a snuggle pug! He is 3-4 years old and shows all the signs of a true gentleman! He
is a 20 lb., loveable, neutered fawn male that is up to
date on all of his shots, and has no medical problems.
Bart loves nothing more than a good old fashioned belly
rub or a cuddle with his family in the bed at night. He
is potty trained, and has had no accidents while at his
foster home, nor shown any signs of marking at all. Bart
will alert you when any strange noises happen, or
someone is around, He shares his toys well with other
pugs, but tends to be possessive of his food. However,
he has no problems finishing everyone else’s if given
the chance! He would make a wonderful addition to your
home, and is really looking for a place to call his
forever!

Annabelle (#
312), 7 years old, and Buckwheat , 5 years old (#
313) are a bonded pair of pugs surrendered due to
divorce. Annabelle is a fawn female. She is
approximately 15 pounds and is a little spitfire! She is
definitely the alpha of the pair. She loves to sit in
your lap and give hugs, run and explore in the backyard,
and is crazy about chewable treats. Buckwheat is a black
male and weighs about 19 pounds. He is so sweet and gets
jealous when you pay attention to anything or anyone
other than him - he wants to cuddle up beside you and
have you pet him all the time. Annabelle probably won't
do good in a home with cats, they aren't her favorite
species! Both know "sit" and "down" and probably other
commands, although Buckwheat gets so excited in the face
of a treat it's hard for him to sit for more than a
second!

Winston (# 320)
is one big boy, weighing 25 lbs. We are not sure of his
exact age, but the vet says he is around 3-4 years old.
When we first brought him home, you couldn't tell that
he was in a new place. He warmed up to everyone and
acted as if he knew us his whole life. When he gets
excited he makes this funny noise almost like a pig
snorting. He has had some issues with housebreaking, but
has not been neutered yet. I feel this issue will
improve greatly after he's neutered.
He is good with other dogs, cats and children. He has
been loving the time he gets to spend with his pug
sister and two tots!! Don't let him fool you...he is a
ham and ready to make you laugh.......Winston is a
lovable pug and will bring many years of joy to a loving
family.

Jada
(# 167) is approximately 1 and a half years old and is a
very loving pug. She still has puppy left in her and she
loves to play. If you have a missing sock, chances are
she has run off with it because she loves stealing
socks. She is a very quiet dog and doesn’t bark much.
She has a very sweet temperament and makes a wonderful
companion. Jada loves to follow you around and be by
your side as much as possible. Although Jada does get
along with other dogs, she needs to be the center of
attention. She doesn’t like to share the stage and
therefore does better being the only dog. This sweet
little girl will take all the love and attention she can
get and gives it back too.

Mollie is fun loving and quick to make up to anyone that

sister and brother. While Daphne & Mollie enjoy each
other, it is apparent that Daphne is the Alpha in their
relationship and Mollie is carefree and more outgoing
and figures, ‘whatever’!
Both Daphne and Mollie are learning a few commands that
will keep them safe and out of trouble. Being older,
they are a bit stubborn, but their Foster Parents feel
that with lots of love and a few treats they will make
good progress.

Hi! My name is Bart (#199). I am a black & white,
Pug / Boston Terrier mix. I have lost track of time, but
I think I am 8 or 9 years old. I've been neutered and am
up to date on all my shots. I have some arthritis in my
spine, but I move very well. I like to cuddle with my
sister and brothers and I like to give kisses to the
humans. I like to play a little, but most of all I like
snuggling up to my foster Mom & Dad. I am house broken
and I will sleep in a crate if you like, but I really
like sleeping out of the crate. I like sleeping on a
soft couch or bed. I am much healthier now then when I
was rescued. I will make someone a very good companion.

Petey (#237) is a pug
of undetermined parental background. One parent was a
pug and we aren't sure of the breed of the other parent.
He's got a funny bark, almost sounds as if one of those
no-bark collars might have been used on him. He loves
snuggling. I think he would be fine in a home with other
dogs, he seems to enjoy the companionship and does not
seemed bothered if he is not alpha. He does not really
understand the concept of "playing", but likes being
where you are.

in his foster parents bed and can be a cuddler when you
want. Oscar is being crate trained, has been neutered and is current on all

Pipsqueak (# 294) is a 13
week old Boston/Pug Mix, or Bug, puppy that was
surrendered to us by his breeder. She surrendered him
because he could not use one of his front legs.
It was deformed and did not hold his weight.
The vet that initially saw Pip at only a few
weeks old recommended that he be euthanized, as the
breeder would not be able to sell him in this
condition. Thank goodness, the breeder contacted KPR
instead. He came into
rescue when he was only 7 weeks old! We took him to an
orthopedic veterinarian who told us that his arm had
actually been broken in three places and his elbow
joint had been crushed.
Pip had to undergo surgery to repair his
broken bones and pin them together. The surgery was a
BIG success! The doctor was able to repair part of
his elbow joint. Pip is full of energy and is a typical
puppy. He has not let his disability slow him down one
bit! He loves to play tug and all kinds of games with
his brother, Bo, and he is not above chewing on
an ear or a tail once in a while, or chasing
chickens. He loves to give
you kisses and he loves to sit in a lap and be held
and petted when he is tired! Pip is a typical baby!
Everyone who has met this little guy has fallen
completely in love with him!

Angel (aka Snuggles) (# 340) is a spayed, fawn
female who will be 5 years old in December. She was
surrendered because her owner was unable to pay for
bladder stone removal surgery. She recovered from the surgery and will need to be kept on a
special diet, long term, to prevent the recurrence of
stones. Angel had breathing difficulties, which
caused her to not be able to run and play and enjoy life
as much as she would like. She had another surgery to
correct stenotic nares (pinched nostrils).
Angel is a very smart and loving pug. She is
housebroken. She knows commands such as lay down,
stay, outside, go potty, go to bed, and no no. Her
foster family has lots of teenagers and they have
friends stopping by all the time. Angel greets
everyone as if they are her long time friend. She
enjoys riding in the car and is very well behaved. Angel
is crate trained. She will go in her crate and stay
there without any fuss. She loves to play with toys.
Angel does not do well with cats or birds. She has a
foster pug sister and brother. It took her awhile
to get used to having pug siblings, but they get along
really well with only a very minor scuffle now and again
if she thinks they are getting more attention than she
is. So, although Angel would be okay with
other pugs, we believe her ideal home would be as an only
pug.

Razzy (# 327) is a wonderful little guy that is
learning about unconditional love. Razzy is 1 year old
and weighs about 19 pounds. He is a little on the thin
side and needs to gain a few pounds. He came to KPR
suffering from a severe case of Demodex. His
former owners surrendered him because they couldn't
afford his medical care. Razzy felt so bad when he
first came to the rescue. He could barely hold his
head up and his little belly was very hot. The vet
prescribed three medications and Razzy began having dip
treatments to heal the Demodex.
Razzy is like the frog that turned into a Prince. He
loves snuggling and will make a great companion for
those days when you just want to relax and enjoy life.
He is a bit shy around loud noises, but he is learning
that he doesn't have to retreat at every little sound.
If you have ever wanted to be the center of someone's
world, you need Razzy. He does well with kids and cats,
and gets along great with all his foster brothers and
sisters. Razzy's foster family fell in love with him and
they can't bear to think of him leaving, so his foster
home has become his forever home. Razzy has a large
family that loves him and he will never want for
anything ever again.

Flopsy (# 322) is a pug mix that is
estimated by the vet to be around 3 years old.
She is the sweetest, most gentle,
calm little girl you could ever ask for! She wants
nothing more in life than to snuggle up with you and
be by your side. She has slept in her foster parent's bed from the first
night, and has had no potty accidents. Flopsy is a
smart girl too. She learned to "sit" within the first 24
hours and responds to her name. Flopsy is fine with
her foster parent's laid-back male pug, but
very intimidated by their female shepherd mix. She is fine with the foster's 5 year old
child and their cat. Flopsy came to KPR
heartworm positive and had to be treated. She was
spayed when she was done with her heartworm treatments.
Flopsy is a wonderful, sweet little girl who is an
absolutely amazing dog for all that she's been through.

Brutus is an 18 month
old Pug/Affenpinscher mix. He's very affectionate and
loves to sit in your lap and have his belly rubbed. He
knows "sit", "down", and "leave it" and is house
trained. He's very much still a puppy and loves to play
with toys and gets very excited when his foster parents
get home from work and he gets to be out of the crate.
He was allowed to stay out of the crate at his last
home, but is doing fine being crated at night and while
home alone. He always wants to be the center of your
attention and doesn't believe you should be able to sit
on the couch without petting him too. Brutus gets along
with other dogs, though he seems to be a little greedy
with his toys, and we're told that he gets along with
cats and children as well. He is incredibly sweet and
will make his new forever family very happy and shower
them with affection.

Hello! My name is Trooper! (# 328)
I am approximately 2 years old. I can't tell
you where I have been or all I have been through in
the last two years. I found found a nice house with a
nice chair on the porch and I slept there for a couple
of days. The lady that took me in called this rescue
and you guys have really helped me out! I have a bad
case of the mange, but my new vet is taking great care
of me and says slowly but surely I should make a full
recovery. I've lost a lot of hair and I itch really
bad, but I feel a little better every day. Don't leave
me alone for long though, because I miss you guys when
you aren't around and... I cry. I can't wait to get
better and go to one of those forever homes you guys
talk about all the time! I've never had one, but they
sound really great! I love to give kisses, love to be
outside and go for walks. I am crate trained and
am coming along nicely in the potty training department.

I am Noodle (#301)!
I am about 2 years old and very energetic. I am what
people call a Bugg, a boston terrier and pug mix. I am
great with all people and have never met a stranger. I
would do best in a house with one or two young larger
dogs who likes to play constantly. Since I want to nip
and chew (not in a mean way, but just being
playful), I would do best in a home that does not have
little children. I love to run and play tug of
war with toys. I want all the attention you can give
me, and then more. If there are too many other pets to
take my peoples attention away from me, I will push my
way in front of the line, so I get all the attention.
I will sleep in a crate at night, but prefer to be as
close to my humans as possible. I have a cute bark to
let you know I am close by. I am full of love and can
noodle into your heart very fast.

home and soon was enjoying playing with my new foster
family's pug Lily, who is a 22 month old, fawn, spayed
female. After getting a bath and having my ears
cleaned, I checked out the house and was soon deciding
on which chair to call my own. I am adjusting well to
both of my new foster parents, although I prefer to
follow my foster-mom around, stay up with her until
she goes to bed, and stay in bed until she decides to
get up.
My foster-dad took me for a walk around the
neighborhood and while new noises scare me I was
assured that all will be well. I behave well on a
leash, so I think we will be taking more walks in the
future. Right now, I want to make sure that I get a
lot of attention so I find myself being a bit
protective, in a non-grouchy way, until I make sure
that anyone coming in the house is a friend. I like to
push myself to the front of the line to make sure that
I get my recommended daily dose of attention. My Human
Foster-sister came for a visit with her dog Twister,
who is a 10-year old mixed-terrier and after a bit of
smelling and checking each other out we all enjoyed a
playful romp in the yard.
Pudge's foster family fell in love with
him as soon as they saw him. He fits into their family
perfectly, so the decision was made to make Pudge's
foster home his forever home.

Meet Bob and
Sassy! Bob is a black 4 year old puggie boy and Sassy is 4 1/2
year old fawn girl. They are a really bonded pair of
super duper love Pugs. They came from an indoor home
where their family was having medical problems with a
child and they just could not spend much time with the
pugs because they were at the hospital a lot.
Bob and Sassy are used to being adored house Pugs.
They both have lovely manners and are housebroken.
They love to spend time with people and love to cuddle
on the couch. They have typical Puggie personalities
and love to play and give kisses and eat.
Sassy is all Pug and loves everybody. She is a
kissing, wiggling machine. Bob is a little more
hesitant until he gets to know you and then is quite
the cuddle bug. Both Bob and Sassy comes with an
extensive personal and medical backgrounds from their
prior home.
They are a beautiful bonded pair of love Pugs waiting
to join a forever home that will give them the time,
caring and love they they deserve.
Bob and Sassy's new family absolutely
adores them and are planning on having a party to
introduce them to family and friends and raise
awareness of KPR.

Jordan (#193) is a delightful pug about 4 years
old. Jordan has had surgery to help open his nares; he
also has a narrowed trachea (airway). Because of this,
the vet has recommended he be placed in a home that is
"laid back" so Jordan does not need to keep up with
anybody. As long as he keeps his own pace, he does
absolutely fantastic! He would do best with an older,
calmer dog; he would be great for someone trying to find
a pal for an older dog. While he does great with kids,
he would also benefit from older kids who understand not
to play too hard with him. Don't let any of this concern
you; there is no reason to believe he won't live a long
healthy and happy life as long as he can pace himself.
He is housebroken, loving, easy mannered, and just wants
your love! Jordan's foster brother, Oscar, loves
Jordan so much, that he became a permanent part of the
family.

with the people. She does not like to be bothered

treat (carrot). She has had a history of bladder
crystals in the past, but is currently managing just fine
with her strict diet of Science Hill C/D. She can not
have regular dog treats, but the vet stated she can have
carrots. Of course, she absolutely LOVES carrots!!
She is good with other dogs, cats and children. She grew
up in a household with six children, ranging from totter

PJ (aka
Mia) is a 6 1/2
month old female pug. At 4.5 lbs, she is not only cute
as a button but not much bigger than one either. Don't
let her size fool you, she is full of Pug Puppy Power!
She plays non stop with toys and her foster kitties
and doggies. She loves to sit in your lap and give
kisses. She is pee pad trained. She has experienced three incidents
of rectal prolapse which is currently being treated
with two tablespoons of 100% pumpkin a day. This
condition will require further monitoring to determine
if surgery is needed. Mia loves to eat, so getting her
to eat pumpkin is as easy as getting her foster mom to
eat chocolate. She also has luxating patellas which
may resolve as she grows but will also require
additional veterinary evaluation to determine if
further treatment is necessary. Mia is now known as PJ and is enjoying
her new Lexington, KY family.

doesn't stop them from enjoying life! They both
love to go for walks and find
great pleasure in an enclosed area where they can
explore the beautiful sights of nature all around

Rosie (#280) is a
female pug who was found wandering a major
highway in Indiana and was picked up by a kind
policeman. We are unsure of her age, but the vet
estimates her to be somewhere in the 8-10 year old age
range. She had a tattoo of a number in her ear, so we
know in her former life she was a breeder, kept in a
cage and nothing but a number, most likely abandoned
when she was no longer useful in producing pups. She
LOVES her new life as a treasured and loved part of a
family. Her foster family reports that she is
absolutely the sweetest pug they have ever fostered.
She has learned that she LOVES treats, likes to lie on
the sofa and follow her foster mom around to see what
is going on. She loves to be wherever the people are,
and is good with ALL family members, cats, other dogs,
and children. Rosie joined her new
Louisville, KY family, including her new brothers and

She's defiantly a typical pug puppy!!
She does appear to have some separation anxiety, but

with young children and gets along well with other

aggressive just wants to play. Jasmine is housebroken.

Hi...My name is Mr. Buster
Man (#279). I was found in a shelter down south and
some very kind people in KPR came to get me. I am a
very special boy with some very special problems. The
people at KPR knew right away what a different and
special boy I was. I have neurological problems. That
is just a really fancy way to say that I walk, eat,
move and do everything in a really unique way. I am
very sensitive and need to be touch very softly or I
fall over on my back. I run into things and it is
difficult for me to control my muscles sometimes. I
have problems getting everything to move in the right
direction. I spent one night with some very nice
people...The Lindseys. They thought that I was a truly
handsome boy and deserved a home where someone could
take care of my special needs. I went to live at a
veterinarians house where they don't think I am to
different. They love me just the way I am. My new
mommy calls me her Buster Man and hugs me very tight
and I think that is neat. I get special food on a
special carpet and they feed me with a fork. They take
very good care of me. I have two KPR Pug sisters
Puddin' and Petula and some human ones too! They spoil
me and carry me around and treat me like a baby, but
don't tell anyone...He! He! Because I am suppose to be
a manly Pug. Thank you KPR for finding me a home where
someone could take care of my special needs and love
me even though I am a unique kind of guy!

stuffed animal cat). He gets along well with
other dogs and enjoys going for walks. He is
housebroken. His favorite thing is to have his
chest rubbed. Prince is a very beautiful pug,
with a beautiful personality too!

Divit (#145) is a wonderful
playful pug who loves children. Her exact age is not

- she has spent much time at the lake. She will follow
you everywhere and loves to snuggle up in your lap. She
enjoys walks and does very well on her leash. She cares
more for people than other animals. She is a constant

that has children and no other dogs.

Chubby (#270) was
surrendered to KPR after his owner suddenly passed
away and no one was able to care for this wonderful
boy. For about three weeks after his owner's death,
Chubby was staying in his home all alone, except for
occasional visits from family members to let him out
and to feed him. Thank goodness Chubby had an angel to
watch out for him by the name of Carey. Carey found
KPR so this boy could have a second chance on a
forever home. His foster mom immediately took a liking
to him. His foster home soon became his forever home.
Chubby is now living with six pug brothers and a pug
sister. They are all known as Snow White and the Seven
Dwarfs among the Kirk-Potter household.

Annabella Marie
#192, is a petite little lady weighing in around 16
pounds. She is going prematurely gray. She will be
four years old on October 1. Bella is very smart and
knows several tricks: sit, lay down, roll over, high
five and she also knows how to dance!! Bella is paper
trained and is learning to go outside. She is catching
on quickly. So far she has had no accidents in the
house. She loves being the center of your universe and
feels that the attention she is getting is her due.
She is an alpha, but a "wise" alpha. She does not
start fights, but will not back down when her foster
brother tries to bully her. Even though he is twice
her size, he is very intimated by this little
spitfire.

Emma (#273) and
Lola (#274) are adorable 2-3 year old healthy
pugs. Their owner recently died and they were
surrendered to KPR. Emma is fawn color and Lola is
black with a white spot on chest. They get along
together very well...very loving of each other and
never any fighting over the food bowl or anything like
that. They are good with other pets and children. They
are very, very affectionate. They love to be in your
lap or next to you on the couch - will roll over and
ask for a belly scratching... or crawl all over you
giving kisses. They also love to sleep with you (oh
yes, in the bed) They are sweethearts!

Big Daddy (#175) is
estimated to be 8-9 years old. If a velcro pug is what
you are looking for, Big Daddy is the perfect
companion for you. He is ready for a nap, snuggle or a
trip around town at a moments notice. Due to his
limited vision he does take a little time getting
familiar with his new surroundings, but, once he
figures out where the food is, he is ready to get
comfortable. Big Daddy is generally a quiet gentleman,
but has been known to voice his concerns on occasion.
Big Daddy has learned that the big (human) bed is a
very nice place to relax and loves to sleep the night
away right by your side.

couldn't take him with her. Mac has adjusted to his
new foster family just fine - he's getting along great
with their kids and other dogs and family pets. Mac is
blind in his right eye from a previous eye injury and
requires eye drops. His most important features are
that he is very friendly, loving and listens well. His
foster family crates him at night and during the day
while they are at work.

Bobo (#133) fawn pug, and Rocky
(#132) a pug-mix, were surrendered to a shelter
when their owner, who was homeless could no longer care
for them. The vet estimates that they are both at least
10 years old. They are both in good health, and Rocky
does not act at all like he is a senior dog. Rocky is a
pug-mix and is very loving. He is likes to follow you
around when he feels like it, otherwise he claims his
spot on the chair as a couch potato. Sometimes he gets a
little jealous of his foster parents 4 other dogs, as he
wants all of their attention! Bobo is going blind, but
that does not stop him from getting around quite well.
He is the most well adjusted, loving dog his foster mom
has ever met. Bobo likes to sit on your lap and snuggle,
or he is content to nap on one of the many dog beds
throughout the house. He does not like going up or down
the steps inside the house, but does fine with the ones
from the deck to the yard. He is working on his diet, as
he needs to loose a few pounds. He tries his hardest to
go for a walk, but has troubles keeping up after a few
minutes. Rocky on the other hand, loves to take walks
and runs around like a much younger dog. Both are
working on their house manners, as they probably are not
used to being in a home, since their owner was homeless.
They are learning very quickly, although they do
sometimes need to wear belly bands in the house. At
night they either sleep with their foster families two
legged children, or in their dog bed. They do very well
with free run of the house. Bobo and Rocky are very good
to one another, although sometimes Rocky's jealousy
makes him snarl at Bobo, and then they snuggle up
together!

Pugsley (#250) – I am
9-10 months old Pug mix and someday I will be a great
dog. However, right now I am still a pup and do all the
usual things that pups do! I am full of energy and I
bark. In fact playing is the one thing I am great at, I
keep going like the pink bunny on the TV! My only
problem is that my foster mom says I play too rough
(just ask my foster brother Sparky) I know what the word
NO means, but honestly I am so young I just don’t
listen. I know how to use the doggy door and have few
accidents. I will go anywhere with you, I love to travel
in the car and best of all I behave while riding.

Gunther (#188) is a 2
year old male who came to KPR via an animal shelter
where he arrived due to a family medical crisis. He has
been checked by a vet and appears to have been well
cared for and in excellent health. He does well around
children and we think he's okay with cats. Gunther gets
along fine with his foster brother. He needs a little
work on his housebreaking routine. Otherwise he is
playful, loves to sit on your lap, and follows you
everywhere.

Jake (#240) is a 2 year
old puggle who was found wandering the rural roads in
northern Indiana. He was lucky that the people who
found him were neighbors of one of our volunteers and
took him to her. Jake is up to date on all
vaccinations, is heartworm negative and on
preventative, also on flea control, and is neutered.
Jake is housebroken. He is a very sweet, mellow, calm
boy who loves to follow his foster mom around, and
cuddle with her on the couch. He loves to play ball
and ride in the car. He is a bit of an escape artist,
so whoever adopts him will need to either have a
fenced in yard or keep him on a leash at all times.

quickly. She is soon to be spayed and updated on her
shots on the 29th. She loves to sit on your lap and
cuddle. She gets along well with other dogs, cats, and
children but she is somewhat protective when it comes to
her food bowl.

Max's Pals for Pugs
Don & Claudette Snyder

|
Max (#227) is a
sweet, 9 year old guy who is very laid back and has
never met a stranger. He gets along great with
his foster family's dogs and cats. He is up to
date on all his medical care and has no medical
issues. He did have 11 teeth taken out awhile
ago, which allows his tongue to hang to the side,
giving him some extra gentlemanly character. Max
was originally owned by someone who abused him and
then by someone who overfed him to try to make up for
all the abuse he had suffered. When his last
owner got him, he was so obese that he could barely
walk. She put him on a diet and made him over
into his current healthy shape. She loved him a
lot, but just couldn't give him the attention he
deserved, as she is a full-time student and is working
two part-time jobs. Max would love to live with
someone who is home a lot or where he would have a pug
sibling to keep him company.

Little Roscoe (#247)
is a 2-3 year old, 16 lb. neutered male, that was
“rescued” from a person that had too many dogs on her
property. He has adjusted wonderfully to living inside
of a home. Little Roscoe is almost housebroken but has
had a few accidents. He is a happy-go-lucky active boy
that loves to be in the middle of everything and wants
ALL of the attention. He would do better in a home
with another dog since he loves to play and chase his
foster brothers and sisters. He doesn’t mind cats and
loves to chew on cow hoofs and stuffed toys. He had an
untreated eye injury that has been nursed back to
health and now you can hardly notice. He loves to go
for walks but has to stay on a leash if not in a
fenced yard.

Eddie (#263) is a one
to two year old who came to us by way of the animal
shelter in Ft. Wayne, IN. He was removed from his home
by the county animal control, we do not know what
circumstances caused this. We think Eddie may have
been kept outside, and tied up. At first, he was not
sure how to act in his foster home, but it didn't take
him long to figure out that the sofa is a nice place
to sit, treats are pretty darn tasty and that he likes
to sleep with his foster mom! He has not bothered the
cats, and he loves other dogs. He will be great in a
home with other dogs and/or children to play with, he
loves to run!! Due to the circumstances that he came
from, Eddie was not completely potty trained when he
came to us, but has made great progress and does not
have accidents when he is kept on a schedule.
