Surrendering Your Pug
Following PDWRA’s temporary closure to new requests to surrender pugs to us, we are very pleased to announce a phased re-opening, where we are available to receive surrendered pugs again from PDWRA’s busiest region, the South East. They will be matched to applicants on our nation-wide waiting lists.
The difficult decision for our temporary closure was taken in order to provide the best welfare solutions to the particularly high number of pugs in our care at the time, requiring rehoming and rehabilitation, similar to other rescue organisations.
We recognise the extra strain on owners, many unable to support poor health conditions in their pugs and as soon as we are able, we will re-open elsewhere in the country to surrenders.
Please find the contact details below for the South East surrenders.
Our volunteers understand how extremely emotional surrendering a beloved pug can be, and will answer queries and provide advice in the meantime from:
