If you are interested in meeting or marching, contact SEPRA through their website at www.pugrescue.com, or meet up near the Ace Hardware in east Atlanta.

Don't forget that you can also support SEPRA and Pug rescue through the SEPRA Store online where you will find all sorts of pug-related items. Shipping is FREE for most items, and for every dollar spent, a portion of your purchase goes directly to SEPRA to continue to help save pugs.

Southeast Pug Rescue & Adoption, Inc. (SEPRA) was formed in Georgia in 1990 to aid in placing lost, surrendered or abandoned pugs in loving, caring homes primarily in the Southeast (GA, FL, SC, TN, MO). Although, we will take any pug in need from any place.

We are an all volunteer, 501(c)(3), not for profit organization dedicated to our pugs. SEPRA will take any and all pugs regardless of age, health and/or temperament, and we've even been known to take pug mixes. Our pugs come from a variety of avenues including shelters, owner surrenders, and even found wandering down the streets.

All pugs are placed in foster care with dedicated volunteers for evaluation and vet-work, which includes: shots, spaying/neutering and treatment for any illnesses, if necessary. We've had many come through with heartworms, knee/hip problems, eye problems, broken limbs etc. We will treat all that is reasonably possible as long as the pug is not suffering. All donations are tax-deductible.]]> 63@http://www.pugs.com Calendar Event 2010-08-05T12:11:03-05:00 Posted by pugscom http://www.pugs.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=62
For love and caring of our families, whether human or pet, that love is unconditional.
For the joy of laughter on the face and in the heart.
For the tranquility brought upon us by peace and friendship.
For the beauty of each day giving us new opportunities.
For the fellowship of those we embrace as friends.

And as always thanks to God for the many blessings He bestows upon us every day of our lives.

To everyone in the PugsCom family, to everyone in your family, and to all people,

A happy Thanksgiving to you!]]> 62@http://www.pugs.com News 2009-11-26T09:54:42-05:00 Posted by pugscom http://www.pugs.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=61 61@http://www.pugs.com Survey 2009-11-18T21:52:33-05:00 Posted by pugscom http://www.pugs.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=60
When Pugs.Com was started in June of 1996, I never realized how much it would grow, or how popular the Pug breed would become. Back then, I was just an owner with a serious interest in the breed: how it came about, what the issues it had were, how to make them better pets, the pitfalls and joys of breeding, puppy breath, and how to help them stay out of shelters and in their forever homes. Pugs had already experienced a first major influx of new people when a Pug won Best In Show at the famous Westminster Kennel Club more than a decade earlier. But the Internet was a new place, with lots of people contributing information that was often simply self-promoting or worse, well intentioned but simply not true. I wanted a spot where Pug information was available without people feeling they were being pressured into making a purchase or being given information that was often hearsay.

So I started writing articles about what I knew, what I did, how I did it, and why. They weren't intended to make people buy a puppy, choose a specific brand of food, use a special harness or even buy from a specific breeder. Instead it was about my own experiences: what worked for me, and how to make it work for them if they wanted to. Along the way I was asked to help co-author a book about Pugs (out of print now, so no, not an attempt to get someone to buy it! *grin*) which was certainly an honor. And as I wrote, I learned more and more, and in turn, wrote more for the site.

Since then things have certainly grown: Pugs.Com has over one hundred pages of static content, almost five thousand photos in the new photo gallery, hundreds of thousands of forum messages on topics from health to breeding to ownership, from the outlandish to the mundane, over 38,000 registered users - we're ranked in the top 150,000 most active web sites on the internet! That's saying a lot about the Pug breed and the interest there is in it. There are a couple other dedicated Pug people who contribute to the running and content these days. We've seen the Internet grow in that time period to include hundreds of Pug web sites, each with their own 'flavor' and approach to information. From static pages to server composed pages, HTML to CSS, search engines and IRC and social networking to viral marketing. We are well into a new way of producing and learning information - in just over a dozen years.

Once we get the kinks ironed out, we'll be going back and fixing some formatting, adjusting some of the categories, and then we have LOTS of new information to add based on what you, the members and guests have asked for over the years.

We hope you like the new look, and the new speed. We'll be getting some old favorites back up and available soon, for those who prefer more colorful sites.

Thanks for your patience, come on in, poke around, set a spell and join us as we talk about what has to be the most expressive face in the canine world: that of the Pug!]]> 57@http://www.pugs.com Updated 2008-11-03T22:36:31-05:00 Posted by PugsCom http://www.pugs.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=56 56@http://www.pugs.com Survey 2008-10-04T18:47:49-05:00 Posted by PugsCom
