Adopt a Pug in Arizona

Pugs are charming, mischievous, and intensely social dogs with their iconic squishy faces. They appear in rescue when health issues common in the breed overwhelm owners. A rescued Pug is a delightful, cuddly companion in a flat-faced little package.

Arizona's rescue dog network is large and well-organized, especially across Phoenix, Tucson, and the surrounding communities. The state has high shelter populations year-round due to climate and border-region strays. A rescued Arizona dog often comes from a high-volume metro shelter.
