***AVAILABLE TO NEW AND PREVIOUSLY APPROVED APPLICANTS***
Meet Roscoe, this little Duke of Hazzard is a 6'ish-year-old Chug with a very particular wish list for his new diggs; Food and YOU... Let's get right to the point, Roscoe is a human-loving, deeply loyal, and resource-guarding renegade who needs to be the only animal in the home. No cats, no dogs, no toddlers sneaking snacks..... no bones about it! This little guy is looking for a solo gig.. His resource guarding applies to food, toys, water, and especially you. If Roscoe wants it, he guards it. No biting, but he will with passion and conviction make his feelings known. He’s a very skilled little thief, counters, trash cans, dropped morsels... Nothing is safe. Adding to his feverish love of anything edible, Roscoe has some stomach sensitives. He's an owner surrender a few times removed, and had some weight swings. He had a skin infection some years ago and was on a strong med for an extended period of time to treat it that his belly didn't tolerate well. During that time, he lost a lot of weight. Did his previous owner limit his food as an attempt to control his digestion issues? Was it food insecurity that led to his desperate dash towards anything he can get in his mouth? Roscoe is currently on a homemade diet (beef, rice, vitamin supplements, pre/pro-biotics) because he was not tolerating the commercial food being fed in his foster home. He's being fostered with multiple pets and his foster mom has found what works best for his needs and her schedule. His new family can certainly find another solution to support his tummy woes, or continue with this homemade recipe. His housebreaking is on track, he will go to the door and circle to let you know he's ready. Wearing a belly band and being kept to a schedule has further promoted his good habits. He’s smart, crafty, and has learned “sit”. When offered treats, you have his full attention so he's highly trainable.. Roscoe can get mischievous if left for longer stretches, a long walk or playtime in the yard would be best before leaving him home alone for any length of time. Let's roll, Roscoe is your ride or die in the car. And keeping in line with that free spirit, he's not a fan of crates, like at all... He loves playing fetch followed by snuggles on the couch for afternoon naps. He accepts grooming and handling with ease and was a fan fave at his last vet visit receiving a perfect report card. Roscoe puts his whole heart into everything he does, including falling for his person. When he loves you, it’s with his whole heart, a truly cosmic and spiritual connection, no reservations. He’s hilarious, snuggly, intense.. a total character, the complete package. We can't paint the full picture of Roscoe's past, but it appears to have embedded some big feelings that he's just now learning how to deal with. By introducing basic guidance to his world, and lots of love and positive reinforcement, he's learned to 'roll with the barks' so to speak... Life is a journey and Roscoe is quickly learning just how sweet it is..
Roscoe needs structure, patience, love and a home that can handle both his GI needs as well as appreciate his behavioral 'opportunities'. A home where he's the apple of your eye, no other pets. An owner who won't fold under pressure and bend to his will by feeding him off their plate (his soulful eye game is strong and not for the weary). As a larceny deterrent, no kids under 10.. He could easily turn them into a foodie accessory after the fact. If you’ve got a big heart, Roscoe will fill every ounce of it with his undivided love.. He’s a fixer-upper who is full of potential and zero interest in sharing you. If you're a previously approved applicant and would like to learn more about Roscoe, please reach out to our Adoption Coordinator directly. If you're new to GMPR (welcome!), please submit an adoption application here. His adoption fee is $375.

Meet Disco – The Life of the Party!
Disco is a 3-year-old Puggle with a big personality and an even bigger heart. Originally from Colorado, Disco was surrendered by his loving family who struggled with his behavior challenges. He had been placed on multiple behavior-modifying medications, but they only made him more irritable. When Disco arrived at GMPR, we gave him a fresh start—removing all medications and enrolling him in training to set him up for success.
Disco thrived in his month-long board-and-train program, where he learned structure, confidence, and clear expectations. We discovered that Disco had developed a habit of biting to avoid things he didn’t want to do—but with consistent training, he now understands that he can work through those moments and respond to commands appropriately. Today, Disco is a completely different dog—well-trained, eager to please, and ready for an active home that will continue his structured lifestyle.
Disco’s skills are impressive:
- 100% recall and fully off-leash trained
- Knows sit, down, and “drop it” on command
- Polite and social around other dogs and cats
- Loves hiking, swimming, and especially playing ball—his favorite pastime!
Disco is not a couch potato—he’s a smart, athletic, and fun-loving companion who thrives with daily activity and mental stimulation. While he can live with other pets, children in the home should be dog-savvy and older. His ideal family will be active, consistent, and won’t let him slip back into old habits.
To help him transition successfully, anyone who adopts Disco will also receive 3 free private training lessons with his trainer.
If you’re looking for a loyal, adventurous best friend who’s as ready to hit the trails as he is to play fetch in the yard, Disco might just be your perfect match!
If you think you and Disco might be the perfect match, please contact our Adoption Coordinator (previously approved applicants) at Amy.Frye@gmpr.org or submit an online adoption application here. His adoption fee is $425.

Meet Bella – Your New Shadow with a Whole Lot of Heart
Say hello to Bella, an 8-year-old black pug with soulful eyes and a heart full of love. Bella is as sweet as they come and absolutely lives for her humans — if you're looking for a loyal companion who will follow you from room to room (even the bathroom!), Bella’s your girl.
This lovely lady has been through a lot. She had a litter of puppies, but sadly, none of them survived. Through it all, Bella’s gentle and affectionate nature has remained unshaken. She's currently being treated for some pesky skin yeast infections, but don’t worry — she’s getting the care she needs and taking it like a champ.
Bella does best in a quieter home with humans around most of the time — she gets a little anxious when left alone and isn’t shy about howling or barking to let you know she misses you. Because of this, apartment living isn’t the best fit for her, but a cozy home with a yard (and a comfy couch) would make her the happiest pug on the planet.
She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and would enjoy having a friendly pup sibling to help her feel safe when her people are out and about.
Bella is ready to spend her golden years soaking up love, snuggling close, and making sure you’re never lonely again.
Are you the forever human this special girl has been waiting for?
To learn more about Bella, please contact our Adoption Coordinator (previously approved applicants) at Amy.Frye@gmpr.org or submit an online adoption application here. Her adoption fee is $300.

Meet Bentley – A Tiny Warrior with a Big Heart
Bentley is a 6-month-old black pug puppy with a story as powerful as his personality is adorable. This brave little boy came into rescue fighting for his life after testing positive for parvo — but Bentley wasn’t about to give up. With the help of his amazing vet team and a whole lot of pug-sized courage, he pulled through and is now thriving!
Today, Bentley is back to being the bouncy, silly, and sweet puppy he was always meant to be. He loves to play, explore, and snuggle — sometimes all at once! His spirit is contagious, and he’s quickly winning over hearts wherever he goes.
Bentley gets along great with other dogs and would love a home with a pup sibling to romp around with. Like many young pups, his housetraining is still a work in progress, but he’s eager to learn and loves praise (and treats!).
After such a tough start in life, Bentley is ready for a future filled with love, belly rubs, and squeaky toys. He’s not just looking for a home — he’s looking for a hero to love him forever.
To learn more about Bentley, please contact our Adoption Coordinator (previously approved applicants) at Amy.Frye@gmpr.org or submit an online adoption application here. Their adoption fee is $550.

Meet Aspen – A Bouncy, Beautiful Bundle of Pug Joy!
Say hello to Aspen, an 8-month-old fawn pug with a heart as big as her puppy eyes and a spring in her step! This playful little lady is full of curiosity and charm, and she’s looking for a forever home where she can be loved, snuggled, and maybe even become your new fetch champion.
Aspen had a timid start when she entered foster care, but she quickly warmed up and showed her sweet, silly side. She loves toys — especially soft balls she can carry and chase — and she’ll happily entertain you with her puppy antics before curling up next to you on the couch. She’s also quite the jumper for a pug, so if you’ve ever dreamed of having an agility star with a smooshy face, Aspen might be your girl!
She’s still working on her housetraining and needs someone patient who can help her build a solid routine. Aspen does well in a crate and sometimes naps in the x-pen with her foster siblings, but she’d much rather be perched on the back of your couch like a little queen.
Aspen gets along with dogs of all sizes, has lived with cats and kids, and thrives in a home where she isn’t left alone for long periods — she’ll let you know if she’s feeling lonely! Because of her barking when left alone, she’s probably not the best fit for an apartment.
This smart and loving girl just needs the right people who understand that pugs — especially young ones — need time, structure, and a little bit of silliness in their day. With consistency and love, Aspen is going to shine.
Ready to fall in love? Aspen’s tail wags are waiting for you!
To learn more about Aspen, please contact our Adoption Coordinator (previously approved applicants) at Amy.Frye@gmpr.org. Her adoption fee is $550.

Meet Jackson – The Big, Bouncy Ball-Loving Buddy You’ve Been Waiting For!
Say hello to Jackson, a 5-year-old fawn pug with a heart as big as his belly — literally! When he first arrived, Jackson weighed just over 30 pounds, but with love, care, and plenty of playtime, he’s already lost 5 pounds on his journey to a healthier life.
Jackson’s absolute favorite thing in the world? Playing ball! He lights up at the sight of his favorite toy and would happily spend his days chasing after it, bringing it back with pride, and then flopping down for a good belly rub. Despite his size, Jackson handles stairs just fine and has no trouble getting around. He is about 80–90% blind and is currently recovering from an eye ulcer, but that doesn’t slow him down when it comes to enjoying life. His close-up vision is good enough for tennis balls, treats, and spotting his people—his favorite things!
Jackson also has an elongated soft palate, a common pug condition, which will be surgically repaired to help him breathe more comfortably. With these challenges, Jackson has shown nothing but resilience, sweetness, and a joyful spirit.
This gentle guy gets along beautifully with dogs, cats, and kids, and his laid-back, friendly nature makes him a great fit for all kinds of families. Whether he’s hanging out in the yard, following you around the house, or curling up for a snuggle, Jackson is just happy to be near his people.
Jackson is ready to keep shedding pounds and keep gaining love—he’s looking for a forever home that will help him stay active, feel included, and remind him every day that he’s already perfect—just the way he is.
To learn more about Jackson, please contact our Adoption Coordinator (previously approved applicants) at Amy.Frye@gmpr.org or submit an online adoption application here. His adoption fee is $375.

***AVAILABLE TO PRE-APPROVED APPLICANTS ONLY***
Meet Zoe – Sweet, Spunky, and Ready for Her Forever Home!
Zoe is a 3-year-old fawn pug who was lovingly surrendered due to changes in her previous family’s circumstances. She has been very well cared for and is a healthy, happy little girl. Zoe will celebrate her 3rd birthday on September 6, 2025—and what better gift than finding her forever family?
Zoe is full of life and personality! She adores playing with toys, especially balls, and has plenty of spunk and speed. She also loves children and would thrive in a home where she has kids to play with and snuggle beside when it’s time to rest.
She has lived as an only dog but is comfortable around her foster siblings—she hasn’t initiated play with them yet but coexists peacefully. Zoe has no resource guarding issues and is happy to share food, toys, and treats. She is more of a “people pug” at heart and is happiest when she’s right by your side…or on your hip! At night, she loves snuggling in bed with her humans (pug snores included), though she is crate trained as well.
Some fun facts about Zoe:
- Her little tongue is almost always peeking out—it’s adorable!
- She’s a champion snuggler and loves being close.
- She’s great on leash and gets excited as soon as her harness comes out.
- She’s potty trained and enjoys spending time outside.
- She’s part kangaroo—using stairs or her jumping skills to get up on the bed.
- Her only quirk? If her feces aren’t promptly picked up in a fenced yard, she may try to eat them—something easily managed with regular clean-up.
Zoe would do well as an only dog or in a multi-dog household. She’ll be happiest with a family that includes children (dog-savvy kids would be wonderful) and people who are ready to include her in their daily lives, snuggles, and adventures.
If you’re looking for a playful, affectionate, and loyal little pug to brighten your home, Zoe may be the perfect match!
If you think you and Zoe might be the perfect match, please contact our Adoption Coordinator (previously approved applicants) at Amy.Frye@gmpr.org. Her adoption fee is $425.
