While pugs are in foster, GPPR pays for all veterinarian expenses. Our standard intake vetting fills any gaps existing in a pug’s medical history and includes the following:

• Routine exam/labs
• Fecal to check for parasites
• Heart worm test
• Da2pp (distemper, adenovirus type 2, parvovirus, parainfluenza) vaccine
• Kennel cough vaccine
• Rabies vaccine
• Heart worm / flea / tick preventatives
• Spay or neuter procedure
• Treatment/surgery for any existing conditions

We charge adoption fees to recoup part of the investment so we can continue intake of other pugs in need. The adoption fee is only a small percentage of what we spend on vetting, so we rely on generous donations from the public to help offset the costs.
