A Tribute to Minnie and Bugsby
Sadly, we lost them both in 2023 and they left an enormous hole in our family. RIP both and run free.

Sadly, we lost them both in 2023 and they left an enormous hole in our family. RIP both and run free.
As our celebratory 50th year comes to an end, we look back on yet another incredibly busy year…
He was the most loving beautiful boy who brought us nothing but joy in the 4 years he was with us.
Since joining the PDWRA I am now the secretary and have various responsibilities including organising the Crufts stand…
I also work as an animal care assistant at a local cat and dog sanctuary so don’t have a lot of time off over Christmas…
I have always had an active interest in animal welfare and have volunteered for Dog rescue charities both in the UK and Africa.
I have seen more cases in the last 5 years working (voluntarily) for the Charity, than I ever saw when in practice…
Buddy and Belle arrived on the Isle of Man four years ago after a long journey from the mainland…
Here’s a lovely selection of our Facebook followers’ pugs that were shared with us for National Pug Day!
I have been asked to write about pet insurance as it can be quite a minefield out there…
I’m retired and so can arrange the day very much to suit the pugs and myself (which I do)!
I’ve fostered many pugs for the PDWRA but I’m generally a hopeless fosterer and have kept most of them!
On the same date each year, it’s a day to celebrate black dogs…
We can’t thank Lynn enough for her enthusiasm and dedication to our cause…
People like Steve, who can combine their interests with volunteering for PDWRA are the backbone of the charity…
Violet was a truly beautiful soul who was full of life and is the reason her parents became involved with helping the PDWRA
The first sign that your Pug may have a spinal condition could be pain, such as reluctance to jump or yelping…
You may have seen me on my socials running around the house and garden to get all the blueberries…
Many of you will have followed the Mighty’ Quinn’s rehabilitation from when he came to us in a terrible state last year…
Tallulah has left the biggest hole in my heart. My home’s just not the same without my little ‘shadow’…
She was just 6 years and hadn’t been poorly, so it was a real shock…
I thought I’d make my regular pug-health article a little different this time to illustrate a number of health issues of pugs…
Like any pug, she’s like Velcro and will follow me or my partner from room to room!
I knew his days were coming to an end so I took him to his favourite park, Woodbank Park…
We work together as a team to help each other find suitable foster or adoptive homes across the country…
Every door you opened she appeared behind and followed us wherever we went…
I think adopting a pug should always be the preference over getting a pug from a breeder and the PDWRA is really helping to make this process easier
I can’t thank his foster mum Rebecca enough for getting my boy ready for his forever home…
A seizure can be a very frightening thing to observe, especially when it is your own dog…
