By Kerry, on adopting 2 pugs from PDWRA, Poppy most recently seen here being indulged on her 4th Birthday!
“I heard about the Pug Dog Welfare & Rescue Association all the way back in 2011, when I was looking at getting our first pug. We chose to adopt through the PDWRA as they are genuine and do everything properly.
There are so many pugs that need homes and they usually adapt quickly. In 2012 we adopted our first pug, our now late Mr Bentley. He was 18 months old back then. He went over the rainbow peacefully just before Christmas. He was nearly 13 💔 and our best friend that we miss and love so much.
We adopted Poppy this Mother’s Day, she was originally a foster but we prayed we could adopt her the moment we saw her photo. Poppy is a beautiful, near tea cup size, fawn pug baby. She’s a Velcro doggy that sleeps in her bed on my daughter’s bed and won’t go for walks without her.
Poppy settled in straight away and loves all of the 3 rotties she lives with. When she wakes up for breakfast, she’ll run into my bedroom first for a kiss then runs back off to catch my daughter up for food!
The adoption process happened quickly. Both of us volunteer for the PDWRA, so we were lucky to be offered to adopt Miss Poppy almost straight away. After losing Mr Bentley, my rotties were heartbroken and kept looking for him. We couldn’t live without a pug despite the 3 large rotties. Our home was very lonely and empty without pug smells and noises – pugs are the spice of life and the life and soul of a home!
From first getting Mr Bentley and then Miss Poppy, our life has been filled with fun, joy, happiness and love and through having them we’ve met lots of pug people and been to many pug parties over the years.
We would like to say thank you so much again to the PDWRA for bringing another beautiful pug and best friend into our lives. We are forever grateful! “
Kerry does enjoy celebrating her pugs!
