GPPR was incorporated in the state of Georgia on April 4^th, 2022. We received our 501(c)(3) designation on June 9^th, 2023, and officially opened for rescue intake on January 1st, 2024. Our efforts are “ground up”, meaning that we are actively building out the infrastructure and capacity for our organization. We invite you to take an active role in the organization’s development and growth by linking arms with us and serving as a volunteer. Every person has unique insights, abilities, and skills that they bring to the table. There is no specific skillset required – that can and will be trained. All we require of our volunteers is that they have the desire to contribute to the greater good of the pug breed. If that is you, we have opportunities to be as involved as your schedule permits.
