Frequently Asked Questions
Where is Tiny Paws Pug Rescue Located?
Can I adopt outside of your coverage area?
Yes! We are open to adoptions out of the area, and have had several in the past. However we will not ship dogs because of the possible health complications. Travel arrangments will need to be made by the adoptive family and include a person picking up the dog in California. We've had dogs picked up on cross country motor home trips, and dogs that were delivered to adoptive families near local airports, but dogs will never be shipped alone.
How do I adopt?
As of January 2021, we are temporarily suspending all adoption applications as we work through our existing applicant list.
Can I apply before I choose a specific dog?
If you are seriously interested in adopting, but are waiting for the right pug to come along feel free to apply now add be pre-approved for when the right pug comes in.
I sent in my application but haven't heard back, what now?
