Oh, Daisy, Daisy, Doo
Daisy's tale is unfortunately a sad one. 12 year old Daisy was loved dearly by her previous mom for about 11 years. Her mom passed and Daisy found herself alone and in need of a kind hand and home to help mend her broken heart. Daisy got passed around to a couple different family members, none of which were too interested in offering this little lady the helping hand she so desperately needed. For some time, she remained in a home where she was not properly cared for. This fragile little lady was already so broken in spirit, now mistreated. She lost a lot of weight, about 5 lbs now and all hopes for once again finding that bond she once shared with her human. A family friend, we'll call her Good Samaritan, found out about Daisy and was able to remove her from that situation, but could not keep her and asked GMPR for help.
Now, after hearing all of that you're likely thinking that's just too much to take on, Daisy must have suffered some irreparable affects from her experiences. Well, think again! Daisy is the sweetest, most gentle, most loving, silly, steal your heart, amazing little girl. Unscathed from her trauma, she lives life to its fullest and has no time for regrets, only time for love, life and new experiences. While her original mom loved her unconditionally, she did not make Daisy's vetting a priority. She requires full vetting, including all vaccinations, a spay and dental. She has a bump on her tail that we'll have checked when she goes in for her spay and dental. And we believe Daisy is likely deaf in one ear due to an ear infection that was left untreated for too long, but that doesn't stop her. She is quite active, independent and curious, and her favorite past time is napping in your arms or on your lap, oh and belly rubs, she really loves belly rubs. She's a perfect copilot on car trips, housebroken if kept to a schedule, great with other small dogs, she's fearful of bigger dogs. Not cat or kid tested, given her tiny, fragile frame, a home with no or older kids would be ideal.
Daisy should be ready to move on to her forever after in the coming weeks. If you want to let Daisy know that she has a loving home for the rest of her days with you, please complete an application. Her adoption fee is $250. https://www.gmpr.org/adoptionapp.html.

Meet Courage!
Courage is not just a name but a testament to the resilience of this adorable 2-year-old male fawn Pug. He found himself in need of a new home due to circumstances beyond his control, his previous owner became homeless and had to make the difficult decision to surrender him. Despite the challenges he's faced, Courage is a survivor with a heart full of love to give. He's a loyal companion who prefers the on the one-on-one attention of a single person. His affectionate nature has earned him the title of a Velcro pug, always sticking close by your side, ready to offer and regularly seeking your companionship. It's important to note that Courage's previous owner claimed he nipped in the past and he did show some aggression upon intake to our foster care. As his former living situation was challenged, one could see how he might be fearful or guarded, so we waited a few weeks to fully evaluate him prior to introducing him to our extended GMPR family. While he has shown to be protective of his person when it comes to other pets or people, he's been a loving pug full of zoomies and joy to be in a stable and secure home. Given his protective nature, we're seeking a home without young children (he's been wonderful with the 12 and 14-year-old young ladies in his foster home), he's shown to be perfectly comfortable around cats.
While Courage may have had some difficulties in the past, he can't wait to embark on this new chapter of his life. And we can't wait to help him realize his dream of a home of his very own. Courage is more than just a pretty face, he's a good boy with a lot of love to give. We feel like he has huge potential to be a great dog for someone after he feels safe in his environment and is taught some manners. He is still very young and will learn quickly. He seems to really love his crate and is a wonderful leash walker. He was hesitant and guarded around the other dogs in his foster home upon introduction, but there haven't been any fisticuffs. He would do well as the only dog in the home. We wouldn’t completely discard a home with another dog, a companion for him in the long run would be great as he is still a puppy and has lots of energy. A submissive yet playful companion could be just the right fit, a meet and greet would be in order to ensure compatibility.
