DYLANThe moment we drove into the driveway and saw Dylan outside with Gail, we fell in love with that little boy and knew we would be taking him home that night. We learned Dylan came to Homeward Bound from a pound. He was set to be euthanized within a few days if Gail and her team had not rescued him. He had a broken back leg from either being hit by a car or abused by apreviousowner.HomewardBoundpaidforDylan’ssurgerytofixhisbroken leg. We often thought he had been abused because he would coweratusforthefirstseveralmonthsthatwehadhim.Luckilythough,Dylan learned to trust us. We cannot imagine all of the horrible things that Dylan may have gone through when he was younger.

Even with all of that, he was happiest pug we have ever seen. He never had a bad day. He loved going to bed in his crate at night. In the morning he would get up and his tail would instantly curl and start wagging. He had the softest and most beautiful coat of fur. We gave Dylan the middle name Rambunctious and no name could have suited him better. While our other two pugs were playing with us, Dylan could often be found trying to sneak cat food. He loved being with his two pug brothers and you could tell that he truly cherished getting to be a part of a family that loved him and took good care of him. Earlier this year, Dylan was diagnosed with histoplasmosis. This past April Dylan could nolongerfightthisinfectionandpassedaway.

While Dylan was a part of our family for only 6 short years, he will live in our hearts and minds forever! He taught us to not take life for granted but instead to appreciate every day that we get to spend with the ones we love.

Dilly Dill Pickle, we love you and miss you everyday. We will never forget your kind heart, soft fur and abundant kisses!

Gracie Lou FreebushHer full name was Gracie LouFreebush.Weadoptedher from Homeward Bound Pug Rescue on August 4, 2007. Grace was rescued from a puppy mill by Homeward Bound in May, 2007. The time in the puppy mill left Grace with a lot of emotional baggage. I’d never met a dog that wouldn’t go by people. Grace spent many weeks pacing the house constantly,unabletorelaxunless she was in her kennel where she felt safe.

Slowly, Grace began to emerge from her shell and although she never overcameallofherfears,shemadeleapsandboundsoverthesixyearsthatshe lived with us. Although Grace was a stout 16 pound pug, her personality wasaslargeashername.WhenGracewasabletorelaxandletdownherguard, we discovered that she was a silly pug with funny quirks – like her love for fabric. Grace loved to chew on fabric. Though this fabric habit could get her in trouble at times – like when she’d chew holes in our sheets while laying on our bed, or pull clothes off the hanger in my closet to chew on, or when she once tried to pull the shower curtain down so she could chew on it!

Grace was my traveling partner – if I put her in the car to go someplace, she’d laydownandrelax,asiftosay,“Wakemeupwhenwegetthere”,nomatterhow far the drive was. She drove to Oklahoma, Chicago (where we walked ontheMagnificentMilewithherinherstroller),andMinnesota.GracealsotraveledbyplanewithmetoTexasandTennessee–shewassuchawellbehaved girl on the planes that fellow passengers would often remark that they never even knew I had a dog with me.

In October of 2011, we found out that Grace had Degenerative Myelopathy (DM).Weknewthathertimeleftwithuswouldbelimitedandweresolvedtokeep her as happy and comfortable as possible for whatever time we had left together.Shewasafighter–Gracebattledagainstthediseasefor32monthsbeforewedecidedthatherlittlebodyhadhadenoughfightingandwasreadyfor peace.

Surrounded by love, in the only place she ever felt comfortable – our home –wesaidgoodbyetoourpreciousGracieLouFreebushonJuly1,2013.Wemisshereveryday–ourhouseisn’tthesamewithoutherlittlespitfirepersonality. But she left a legacy in our lives – I have a very special spot in my heart for former puppy mill dogs and I look forward to welcoming more survivors into our family in Grace’s honor. -Rachel Charles

DON’T THINK HEARTWORM PREVENTATIVE IS NECESSARY?

Many people think that heartworms will not affect their animals because their animals are kept inside and aren’t around “strange” animals. Did you know that this is a major misconception? One in five of the pugs taken into rescue annually with Homeward Bound Pug Rescue are heartworm posi-tive. Some of the heartworm positive pugs are even owner surrenders where they have been kept in the house all the time.

Heartworms are transmitted from infected mosquitoes. Pesky mosquitoes can easily enter your home when you open your door to let your pet out to do its business or when you go on a walk in the evenings. How many times have you been in your house, but still received a mosquito bite?

Heartworms, if left untreated, can be fatal to animals. However, heartworms are preventable! With a simple heartworm pill once a month, you can protect your pet from this horrible disease. Heartworm preventative is also very inexpensive (only about $5 per month) compared to the cost of treatment which can run from $350 to $600!

Heartworm preventative also protects your animal from several other internal parasites as well. Treating heartworms can also be very long and painful for your pet too. So, PLEASE,doyourpetafavor–keepthemonheartwormpreventativeyear-round!See your vet today and talk to them about heartworm preventative.

Homeward Bound Pug Rescue would like to thank Rockwell Pet Clinic for taking such great care of our heartworm positive pugs over the last several years.

Most of our adoptable pugs are here for you to meet. The adoptable pugs are wearing pirate scrunchies with name tags. Several of our wonderful pugs are featured on

the next few pages.

Marilyn will be 12 in October and was surrendered by her family. The new baby made her nervous but Marilyn is as sweet as can be. She loves to follow you

around and although she is a big girl she doesn't mind being in your lap. Marilyn isonadiettoregainhergirlishfiguresomeasuringherfoodintakeisamust.She is a laid back girl but has moments when she will play with a toy, although

she loses interest fast. She knows how to use a dog door and loves to sleep with her human if she can. It is hard to lose your family after 11 years but she has adjusted well and is hoping there is someone out there that would love to give

this sweet senior a forever home. She is a very easy keeper but you must go out with her when she needs to potty. She doesn't like to be alone. Marilyn would

prefer to be the only queen in her castle.

Paula Jane was surrendered by her former mommy when she could no longer keep her from scratching all the time. Paula is seven years old and has always had allergies. It got to the point where she was miserable. We started Paula on medications and new food and she is doing great. We discovered by accident that she is allergic to grass! Her foster home has very little grass and when she gets on grass for very long, she gets red and itchy. Wiping her down after coming inside should help with that issue. Paula is very sweet and loving and insists on being on your lap if it is empty. She loves to sleep with her human and will lick you for ten minutes before going to sleep. She is housebroken and will make the perfect companion for someone wanting a loving little girl to keep them company. She hardly ever barks and is a complete sweetheart. Paula loved her witch costume and pranced around like a fashion model!!

What a year it has been! The highs were very high and the lows were devastatinglylow.Itwasayearfilledwith joy that so many pugs were saved and found wonderful forever homes, butalsofilledwithmorethanourshareof heartbreak. We have never lost so many sweet pugs and had to say so many goodbyes. I will never get used to losing one and my heart breaks with every passing. Sometimes I just have to abandon ship for a few days to get the strength to keep going. People constantly ask me “How do you do it? How do you not just give up?” Trust me, I think of that often and say the same thing to myself. That is when I go into the archives and start looking at all the pictures of the pugs that have touched my life over the last ten years and have found happiness with a family to call their own. I then look into the eyes of the pugs here with me now and realize that there is no way I can walk away. Some day maybe, but not today. I would like to pay tribute to the following precious pugs who touched our hearts and will never be forgotten. They will be with us always. Although they never went to what we call their forever home, they all were loved and cherished by their foster families. I truly believe that they all were right where they were supposed to be. Beatrice: My sweet wiggly girl enjoyed every moment of every day. Beatrice was completely blind and was found wandering by herself. She was one of the happiest little pugs ever. Bentley: Bentley came to us with seizures that couldn’t be controlled. His time with us was short but he had such a beautiful soul and left a huge hole in my heart. I was hoping I could help him, but it wasn’t meant to be. Bogey: Bogey was rushed to us from a shelter in Wichita. Oh how I wanted to take those awful seizures away and give you the life you deserved. I still think of you often and know you are now at peace.

Cindy: This little girl had so many problems. She never gave up on herself and fought so hard to stay with her foster mommy that loved her so very much. Her little body finallyhadenough.Hughbert: What a sweet and gentle soul you were. Your foster mommy loved you so much! You leftusunexpectantlybutwewilltreasure every moment we had with you.

FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS

Lettie: I never met you, but your foster mommy and daddy posted so many pictures and updates that I felt I knew you. No pug was more loved than you were. You left us, knowing what it was like to be loved by a family to call your own. Louie: My little old man was blind and crippled with arthritis and was found in the country as a stray. He had heart problems and our vet didn’t think he wouldlasttwoweeks.Hemadeitayearbeforehisbodyfinallygaveup.Hewasa crusty old man but I loved him and he ruled the roost. His last day was spent outside being held and enjoying one more day of sunshine. Pugsley: Pugsley was with us for several years. He was such a gentleman and oh so very sweet. He loved to be with his human and was happy and content just being by your side. Rudolph: Rudy was turned into a vet clinic to be euthanized. What a gentle giant he was! He loved everyone and formed a special bond with his human fosterbrother.Heleftusveryunexpectantlybutsurroundedbylove.Spanky: Spanky came to us from the Joplin tornado. He was not in great shape when we got him but slowly learned how to love and trust again. His foster mom took such good care of him and he knew how much he was loved. SuLin: What a cranky little treasure she was! She came to us from the shelter after her family dumped her there. She was diabetic and 13 years old. She fought a hard battle but lived life to the fullest. I miss her every day. Toby/Einstein: Toby came to us from another rescue. He was only eight months old and such a handsome boy. His little legs were deformed and we were going to try and help him. He was such a joy and nicknamed Einstein as he learned things so quickly. Everyone who met him, fell in love. His time with us was very short, but we will never forget him.

Zipper: This little guy was the most precious boy! He was in kidney failure when we got him, but thanks to his two foster mommies he made it two years before his body just gave out. Each one of these babies took a piece of my heart with their passing. But they also taught me many lessons. The most important one being, live in the moment. Enjoy life to the fullest, accept what life throws at you, and be kind to others.

Rest in peace sweet angels. We will meet again.

About 6 years ago she was drawn to an Amazon Parrot in a pet store who had been mistreated by its owners and returned to the store.

OUR PUGS NEED FOSTER

HOMES!Because Homeward Bound Pug Rescue does not have a shelter, we rely solely on our foster homes to provide a safe and stable temporary home to get our pugs ready for adoption.

Because many of our dogs cannot be immediately adopted the only way that we can save these animals is with the help of foster homes. Some pets will need to be in a foster home until they can be spayed or neutered, at which time they are ready for adoption. Pugs who are ill or injured may need to stay in foster care until they are well enough for adoption. In some cases, a foster home is needed to help an animal transition from the stress of a bad situation, such as a puppy mill, abuse, etc.

The number of animals we can save depends entirely on the number of people who open their homes and hearts to foster them. Please consider fostering a pug.
