Meet Pugsley - 10 yo Owner Surrender Pugsley is a 10 year old male sweetheart who was surrendered by an owner who could no longer take care of him. Pugley is neutered and up to date on his vaccinations. Like most older pugs, needs eye drops daily, but he holds nice and still when his foster mom administers them. Pugsley is house trained. Pugsley is an easy going guy. He loves to be pet and snuggled and be near his favorite humans. When his foster mom comes home from work he wiggles and lets out happy little barks. He loves to go on walks, and hiking, off-leash, in the woods is his favorite activity. Pugsley’s is a smart little guy who always comes when he’s called and loves to be talked to. Pugsley loves female dogs, but has shown some dominance over male dogs so it would be best to place him in a home where he was the only dog, or had a female dog as a playmate. Pugsley takes a few minutes to warm up to people, but once you talk to him a bit and give him some love he is quick to trust and goes back to being his easy going self. Pugsley would be best with a firm, loving family that will be dedicated to taking him out on his walks (they keep him feeling young!) and giving him lots of love. Meet Griffen - 3yo Pug/Jack Russel Mix Griffin is a young, energetic dog
full of personality and love. He is a 3 year-old Jack Russell/Pug
mix. Griffin came to Curly Tail as a owner surrender. Griffen has been fostered by our Curly Staff Trainer where he has blossomed into a very good boy who understands all of his basic commands. Griffen prefers to eliminate on grass. Griffin has lots of energy and needs a place where he can run around freely and safely. Griffen does very well on his leash walks. Griffin loves to meet other dogs, but
he gets a bit on the excited side so its important that he is supervised
to make sure that he and his friends are safe. Socialization is a good thing for Griffen. Griffin has been doing very well learning not to jump on people, again he is so happy to meet
new people he just quite can't help himself, so as his new pet parents
it is important to keep up the good manners he has learned in Curly Care. This goes as well for sharing his toys - Griffin thinks he owns everything!
Griffin is a free-spirited pooch who wants to love and be loved back.
If you want a dog to run with or go on hikes & maintain the manners

but he does suffer from a natural anxiety that is best controlled by a
reasonably calm and structured environment alongside the use of two
daily anti-anxiety medications that he takes with his favorite---a
piece of cheese! The extent of Gretsky's exhibited anxiety behaviors
now include a slight sensitivity to lights and unpredictable movements
like birds that he sees outside. He displays his anxiety by barking and
spinning around in circles, and looking up at the ceiling. When he gets
anxious the behavior can be quickly interrupted and forgotten about by
his foster mom simply saying "Gretsky" or walking over to touch him.
The second either of the two are done, his attention is quickly
diverted to the love of his human companion. Gretsky is a huge cuddler
and is the most submissive and docile pug ever. He gets along with
every shape and size animal and the same goes for humans---he lives
with three small human children now and he loves them to pieces.
Gretsky's idea of a good day is being on the couch lounging next to his
foster mom or human siblings watching t.v. after a long walk through
the neighborhood. Gretsky is a big sack o' potatoes by 8:00 every night
and knows when its time for bed. He functions like clock-work and is
perfectly house trained and crate-trained. Gretsky will make a family very happy but we are truly looking for a family who will maintain patience while he transitions from his foster home to his forever home. He will most likely display exaggerated anxiety during the first few weeks of a new home as he did when he arrived into Curly Tail but once past the hump, he is an angel of a boy to have around and will aim to please!

Both dogs are up to date on vaccinations and are healthy. They have some food allergies like a lot of pugs do. So Cleo and Caesar are both on a gluten-free diet that is helping keep their allergies in check. They are not allowed to have table scraps or most dog treats, but they don’t mind since those treats always make them itchy! Caesar and Cleopatra are both house trained and love everyone they meet. They are both very social and great with other dogs. Caesar is the more playful of the two, and Cleopatra has an adorable cinnamon bun tail and is loving and doting. Their foster mom says that they are a sweet, well behaved and obedient pair who love kisses, playing and snuggling. Caesar loves the play tug of war and fetch. Cleopatra and Caesar would do well with a wide variety of
families. They are great with kids of all ages, they are also fine
sleeping/lazing about when their home alone. Cleo and Caesar new family would have to
dedicated to their allergy diet to keep them comfortable and itch free. If you’re looking for a built in pair of
pugs, please consider Cleopatra and Caesar. Fostered in NJ/Amy Meet Wendy - 8yo Owner Surrender She is sweet gal who is queen of her household. Wendy prefers that all attention is on her and will gently remind you if she thinks you are not paying quite enough attention to her. Like all pug royalty, Wendy likes to sleep in a human bed and to make nests out pillows for the ultimate comfort. Wendy's is getting glucosamine supplements as part of our Curly Diet. She hasn't has the right diet or enough exercise prior to foster care, so she needs a bit of assistance up and down the stairs. All of that will change as she transitions onto our diet & gets used to the play and exercise we give our foster pugs! Queen Wendy in housebroken and loves to meet her adoring subjects on daily walks. She is mild and mannered so she makes friends easily as she is playful and not dominate. Since ruling a household is tough work, Wendy prefers to cuddle, snuggle, nap on her humans and dine in way fit for a pug. Fostered in NJ/Kate • Adoption Fee - $300 Meet Peanut - 2yo Owner Surrender - Pending Adoption Updated pics 7-20-09
Hercules is a sweet older boy whose elderly owner was not able to care for him any longer. Herc is blind and hard of hearing. He is potty trained to use his training pads in the mornings and he also eliminates on his daily walks outside. He is very attached to his foster mom and loves to be near her at all times. We have put Hercules on our Curly Diet and he is making progress by the day. We would love to see Hercules in a home where someone was home a lot of the time with a quieter lifestyle to give him the security and peaceful lifestyle this boy deserves in his Golden Years. Please email Jill (jill@curlytailpugrescue.org) for more information.
Hercules is being fostered in MA/Keiran. Adoption fee $100.

![]() ![]() This gentle sweet boy came to us through Pug-Peke-Tzu Angels Rescue. Sweet P is a happy boy and loves to zip around in his wheel cart....which was made especially for him when he was in PPTR's care. Sweet P was originally brought to the shelter to be put down b/c he couldn't use his back legs any longer. He was rescued by loving people at PPTR b/c after 10 years of being the perfect pug, they felt this just wasn't fair. We couldn't agree more!!! Curly Tail offered to help out & found him a new foster home where he is the only foster to be showered with love and attention. He loves to hang out in the quiet of his foster mom's art studio all day. Both Sweet P and his foster mom & dad couldn't be happier. This smiling boy will remain in Curly Care until he finds a home. Mr. P is being fostered in MA/Marybeth. Adoption fee is $200. |
