feistylady Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 My daughters fiance here in Aust has received a message that his Mum who has been in hospital needs to stay with an Aunt but sadly his 11 year old Pug who has health problems is not welcome !Unfortunately this is needing to happen in the next 2-3 weeks. IN the New Orleans/ Mandeville area USA. I thought perhaps if I could find a forum as friendly as this, someone may be able to help it has sadly been suggested that poor little Pug be euthanased would that be kinder .

Guest Ams Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 What are the health issues the Pug suffers from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifi Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 I'd be contacting the pug club in her state, they may have a rescue/foster person to assist. fifi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feistylady Posted March 13, 2011 Author Share Posted March 13, 2011 What are the health issues the Pug suffers from? From what we can gather currently he has sight and hearing impairment, teeth and bladder problems , mmm knowing this and knowing the family in US probably cannot afford to use a vet makes me feel if the latter suggestion posted originally would be kinder?

feistylady Posted March 13, 2011 Author Share Posted March 13, 2011 (edited) What are the health issues the Pug suffers from?

~Anne~ Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 There are a billion and one Pug Rescues in the US who could offer advice and support. Go to www.pugs.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandgrubber Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 (edited) It's not clear to me whether they're looking for a pet sitter or a way to rehome. The pet forum on the local Craigslist may be worth a try. It's usually full of lost animal listings, pets needing new homes, etc. Listings are free. http://neworleans.craigslist.org/pet/ Edited March 14, 2011 by sandgrubber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~Anne~ Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Another good US site for Pug rescues and support is The Pug Village. I think the url is www.pugvillage.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
