🎉 22 Years of Rescue + PugFest 2025 🎉

In March of 2003, Pug Rescue of Florida began its mission to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome pugs in need.

22 years later, we’ve grown into Pug Rescue of Florida & Georgia, saving thousands of pugs across both states thanks to an incredible community of fosters, volunteers, adopters and donors.

To celebrate 22 years of rescue, we have set our biggest goal yet: $22,000 for lifesaving medical care for our foster pugs! Your gift will help us continue providing medical care, love, and second chances to pugs who need us most.

Join us at PugFest 2025 – our biggest fundraiser in Georgia – for a day of pugs, fun, and fundraising you won’t want to miss! There will be VIP swag bags, food vendors, raffles, silent auction, pug races, merchandise, football on the tvs and of course... beer!

📅 Saturday, November 15 from 12pm - 4pm at Fire Maker Brewing in Atlanta, GA
