Pug of the moment

Button

Female

Puppy

No special needs

Please welcome Button to the PugHearts family.

This sweet 7 month old was found wandering the rough streets of Houston with no one to claim her.

She is currently battling a skin infection that should clear up with antibiotics and medicated shampoo.

Button is your typical puppy that enjoys zoomies, toys, treats and snuggles.

We are currently working on potty training.

She has mastered the doggy door, but isn't a fan of wet grass.

She's hoping to find a family that will be patient and continue her training.

Look at those eyes!

How can you pass her up?

Testimonials

We had an amazing experience with Pughearts! The process was thorough (which I appreciated). The volunteers and organization are extremely passionate about their rescue dogs and their well being. We are so grateful for our fur babies and for Pughearts!

This was our first adoption from Pug Hearts and we couldn't be more impressed! We live out of state and Pug Hearts went above and beyond to come and inspect our home. Every step of the way all the volunteers I worked with were kind and quick to answer all my many questions through the adoption process. When I flew to Houston to meet the pug we were hoping to adopt, my flight was significantly delayed and our pug's foster mom took the next day off just so I could come meet with her! Our pug came to us in great health, fully checked by the Pug Hearts vet team, with detailed vet records for her continued care. We continue to stay in touch with the volunteers and our Pug's foster mom sending updates and sharing stories,. Not only did we add the sweetest pug girl to our family, we feel like we came away with new friends! We will always adopt from Pug Hearts from now on and highly recommend them for your family too!

We had an excellent experience working with Pug Hearts Houston. Everyone we spoke with and worked with was very nice and answered all of our questions quickly. Ann was awesome about coming to do the home visit for us since we live in a remote location in Colorado. Karen was awesome about giving us all the information we needed and making sure our pup was all set to travel back from Houston. We would recommend Pug Hearts for anyone looking to help find a pug a forever home!

We adopted a pug in 2020 from Pug Hearts. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about this rescue! Our pug had been found wandering the streets , was underweight and had severe behavioral issues. His foster mother worked with him for 4 months to get him ready to come home with us. Not only did we get a new family member but I made a great friend as well. They take in pugs of any age with any medical problem and provide them with not only the medical care they need but the love they deserve. No pug is left behind.

PugHearts is an amazing rescue. They are extremely thorough in the application process and truly care about the well-being of every single animal that they help. The organization has a wonderful group of volunteers, donors, and Fosters. The intake coordinator and the Director are absolutely wonderful to communicate with. They are very knowledgeable and caring. I have adopted three pugs from them and anytime I have questions or concerns they are quick to reply with a solution. Hands-down the best rescue in the entire world!!
