Adoptions:

What are the fees involved in adopting a pug?
Our adoption fee is $350 for dogs under 3 years of age, $300 for dogs 3-6 years of age, and $250 for dogs 7 and over.

What does this fee cover?
All pugs will be vet checked and any medical issues treated or resolved to the best of our abilities. All pugs are spayed/neutered before being placed.

Once I fill out an adoption application, what can I expect?
Our pugs are NOT placed first-come-first-serve. Rather, while they are in foster care, their personalities are assessed, and they are matched up with a forever home based on what the home is looking for in a pug and what the pug needs.

If you are found to be a potential match based on your application, a representative will contact you for an interview. A home visit will then be arranged.

PLEASE realize several homes are interviewed for each pug in order to guarantee the best possible match.

If I am approved for an adoption, how will I get my pug?
All applicants are required to arrange transportation to adopt their pug. We have contacts across several states, and will do our best to facilitate getting your new family member home, but ultimately, it is your responsibility.

Where does my donation go?
Your donation goes towards such things as: veterinary treatment for rescued pugs, medicines, food and supplies, and educational materials. Again, no one at Mid-Atlantic Pug Rescue is paid - except in pug kisses - and they're SO SWEET!
