Pug Rescue of Austin is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to the rescue and placement of abused, neglected and unwanted pugs. We do not discriminate on the basis of health or age.

Our mission is to provide a safe, caring and humane refuge for abandoned pugs and to ensure quality adoptive homes. Pug Rescue of Austin promotes responsible pug ownership through public education about the unique needs of pugs and a mandatory spay/neuter policy.

We are a volunteer based organization with no paid staff. We rely solely on donations and fundraisers to cover the medical expenses of our rescue pugs.
