Meet Rue – The Resilient, Snuggly Jug with a Big Heart!
Say hello to Rue, an adorable 1–2-year-old Jug (Jack Russell/Pug mix) with a survivor’s spirit and a heart full of love! Rue’s story began in Alburgh, Vermont, where she was found as a stray — thin, scared, and with nails so long they curled into her paw pads. Thankfully, a kind samaritan took her in, helped her heal, and gave her a second chance at a happy life.
Today, Rue is healthy, playful, and ready to find a forever family who will love her for the sweet, snuggly girl she is. She can be a little shy at first, but once she warms up, Rue’s affectionate nature shines through — she adores her humans and will happily curl up beside you for couch cuddles.
Rue gets along well with cats and other small dogs, but big dogs make her nervous, so she’s looking for a home where she can feel safe and confident. She’s shown some separation anxiety, so she’ll do best with someone who’s home often or can help her build up her comfort level over time. Rue is also a bit of a trickster — she’s been known to jump or squeeze through gates if she spots an opening!
She’s housebroken when kept on a regular schedule, and she’s still learning about the leash — a little patience and positive encouragement will help her master it in no time.
Rue is currently on medical hold until she has seen our vet, but she’ll soon be ready to start her journey toward finding her forever home.
Rue’s ideal home is one where she can get plenty of love, patience, and security — a family who will help her continue to blossom into the confident, happy pup she’s meant to be.
If you think you and Rue might be the perfect match, please contact our Adoption Coordinator (previously approved applicants) at Amy.Frye@gmpr.org or submit an adoption application through our website. Her adoption fee is $250.

Meet Bendito – From the Streets of Mexico to the Search for His Forever Home!
Say hola to Bendito, a 1-year-old Puggle with a heart as big as his journey! This sweet boy came all the way from Mexico through GMPR’s partnership with a Texas pug rescue, along with his brother Frito. Before arriving in New England, the pair spent months in a shelter after surviving on the streets—and now Bendito is ready for the loving home he’s always deserved.
Bendito is a gentle soul who may be a little shy when meeting new people, but give him time and patience, and you’ll quickly see his affectionate and loyal side shine through. Once he feels safe, he’s all love, cuddles, and tail wags! He especially adores children and would thrive in a home where he can share his playful energy.
He’s still perfecting his house training, but with consistency and encouragement, we’re confident he’ll catch on quickly. Bendito would do best in a home with another young dog to play with and help build his confidence.
After everything he’s been through, Bendito is ready to start his next chapter filled with love, playtime, and stability. If you’re looking for a sweet companion who just needs a little patience and a lot of heart, Bendito is waiting to meet you!
If you think you and Bendito 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 $250.

Meet Coco - Your Sweet Little Survivor Ready for Retirement!
Coco is a beautiful 3-4-year-old brindle French Bulldog who is finally getting the chance to enjoy the life she deserves. After spending her early years as a breeder dog, Coco is now ready to leave that chapter behind and find a loving forever home where she can truly relax, be spoiled, and just be a dog.
This sweet girl may be new to the comforts of home life, but she's adjusting wonderfully. When she first arrived, she curiously explored her surroundings, taking everything in stride. Coco is a gentle, affectionate pup who loves attention and being close to her people, she would happily spend her days by your side (and her nights snuggled up in bed!).
Coco is house-trained and does a great job letting you know when she needs to go outside. She enjoys a little time outdoors to check out the scene, but her favorite place is wherever her humans are. Because of her past, she can feel anxious when left alone or confined, so she would do best in a home where someone is around most of the time and where crating is kept to a minimum.
She gets along well with other dogs her size and could live with a calm canine companion, though she'd also be perfectly happy soaking up all the attention as your one and only. If there are other dogs in the home, feeding separately is recommended, as Coco prefers to enjoy her meals without sharing.
Coco is good with respectful children and would do well in a home where everyone understands she may need a little time and space to settle in. She's learning to trust, and with patience and love, her personality continues to blossom more each day.
Like many Frenchies, Coco has a little spunky side, she can be a bit mischievous and full of personality, which only adds to her charm! She may need a little help getting onto furniture due to her short legs, but she handles stairs like a pro.
Coco's journey hasn't always been easy, but her future is bright. She's ready for a home filled with love, comfort, and companionship - a place where she can finally enjoy her well-earned retirement.
If you're looking for a loyal, loving companion who just wants to be near you and soak up all the affection she missed out on, Coco might be your perfect match.
To apply for Coco, go to Adoption Application or if pre-approved, please email Amy at Amy.Frye@gmpr.org to be placed on Coco's list. Her adoption fee is $425. |

Meet Jag - Your Loyal Little Velcro Companion
Jag (aka Hippo) is an approximately 8-year-old fawn French Bulldog with a heart full of love. Despite coming from a difficult backyard breeding situation, Jag is incredibly gentle, trusting, and happiest when he?s right by your side. From day one, he's been a total snugglebug, following his people everywhere and soaking up belly rubs.
Jag is very social and does great with other dogs. He would truly thrive in a home with a canine companion, as he loves having a buddy to follow and learn from. He's friendly when meeting new dogs and has done well with children, showing his sweet and curious nature.
He is mostly house-trained and learning his routine, does well with handling and grooming, and is calm and easygoing at the vet and in the car. Jag prefers a home where someone is around most of the time, as he doesn't enjoy being alone?he just wants to be part of the family. A fenced yard would be a bonus, as he enjoys exploring, though he's not much of a long-walk kind of guy (he can be a little stubborn and may need a lift home!).
Jag does have a spinal condition (common in Frenchies) that is being managed with medication, as well as arthritis in his shoulders. He will need ongoing medication and joint supplements to keep him comfortable and thriving.
This sweet, resilient boy is ready to leave his past behind and find a loving home where he can finally relax, feel safe, and be someone's constant companion.
To apply for Jag, go to Adoption Application or if you are pre-approved, please email Amy at Amy.Frye@gmpr.org. His adoption fee is $300. |
