***AVAILABLE TO NEW AND PREVIOUSLY APPROVED APPLICANTS***
Meet Roscoe! This 6-year-old Min Pin/Pug mix is a smart, loyal, and hilarious little guy who’s ready to find his forever home. He’s house trained, loves car rides, fetch, and couch snuggles, and puts his whole heart into loving his person.
Roscoe has some food sensitivities and is currently thriving on a homemade diet. He’s also a resource guarder when it comes to food, toys, and especially his person. For that reason, he’ll do best in a home with no young kids and either as the only dog—or possibly with a very submissive canine companion.
He recently attended the GMPR Pug Social and was the perfect gentleman with everyone he met, showing just how charming and lovable he can be. He’s highly trainable, enjoys walks and playtime, and was even a fan favorite at his last vet visit.
Roscoe will thrive with structure, patience, and someone who appreciates his quirky personality. In return, he’ll give you endless loyalty, laughter, and love.
If you're a previously approved applicant and would like to learn more about Roscoe, please reach out to our Adoption Coordinator directly at Amy.Frye@gmpr.org. If you're new to GMPR (welcome!), please submit an adoption application here. His adoption fee is $375.

Meet Disco – The Life of the Party!
Disco is a 3-year-old Puggle with a big personality and an even bigger heart. Originally from Colorado, Disco was surrendered by his loving family who struggled with his behavior challenges. He had been placed on multiple behavior-modifying medications, but they only made him more irritable. When Disco arrived at GMPR, we gave him a fresh start—removing all medications and enrolling him in training to set him up for success.
Disco thrived in his month-long board-and-train program, where he learned structure, confidence, and clear expectations. We discovered that Disco had developed a habit of biting to avoid things he didn’t want to do—but with consistent training, he now understands that he can work through those moments and respond to commands appropriately. Today, Disco is a completely different dog—well-trained, eager to please, and ready for an active home that will continue his structured lifestyle.
Disco’s skills are impressive:
- 100% recall and fully off-leash trained
- Knows sit, down, and “drop it” on command
- Polite and social around other dogs and cats
- Loves hiking, swimming, and especially playing ball—his favorite pastime!
Disco is not a couch potato—he’s a smart, athletic, and fun-loving companion who thrives with daily activity and mental stimulation. While he can live with other pets, children in the home should be dog-savvy and older. His ideal family will be active, consistent, and won’t let him slip back into old habits.
To help him transition successfully, anyone who adopts Disco will also receive 3 free private training lessons with his trainer.
If you’re looking for a loyal, adventurous best friend who’s as ready to hit the trails as he is to play fetch in the yard, Disco might just be your perfect match!
If you think you and Disco might be the perfect match, please contact our Adoption Coordinator (previously approved applicants) at Amy.Frye@gmpr.org or submit an online adoption application here. His adoption fee is $425.

Meet Ebony Rose — The Sweet, Spirited Little Pug with So Much Love to Give!
Say hello to Ebony Rose, an adorable 11-month-old fawn pug who’s equal parts playful energy and snuggly sweetheart!
Ebony Rose came to GMPR when her former owner’s health made it difficult to keep up with this lively young girl’s zest for life. She’s now ready to find an active, loving family who can give her all the playtime, companionship, and adventures she deserves.
True to her name, Ebony Rose is a little beauty — with a petite pug face, big expressive eyes, and a personality that blooms wherever she goes. She loves people, gets along well with other dogs, and would thrive in a home with another playful pup or kids to help her burn off her puppy energy.
At bedtime, she’s all about the snuggles and would be thrilled to curl up beside you after a busy day of fun. Ebony Rose rides well in the car, enjoys being with her people, and is learning the ropes of house training.
If you’re looking for a young, affectionate companion who will keep you laughing, moving, and feeling loved every day, Ebony Rose might just be the perfect addition to your family.
If you think you and Ebony Rose might be the perfect match, please contact our Adoption Coordinator (previously approved applicants) at Amy.Frye@gmpr.org. Please note, we are not accepting new applications for Ebony Rose at this time. Her adoption fee is $550.

Meet Rue – The Resilient, Snuggly Jug with a Big Heart!
Say hello to Rue, an adorable 1–2-year-old Jug (Jack Russell/Pug mix) with a survivor’s spirit and a heart full of love! Rue’s story began in Alburgh, Vermont, where she was found as a stray — thin, scared, and with nails so long they curled into her paw pads. Thankfully, a kind samaritan took her in, helped her heal, and gave her a second chance at a happy life.
Today, Rue is healthy, playful, and ready to find a forever family who will love her for the sweet, snuggly girl she is. She can be a little shy at first, but once she warms up, Rue’s affectionate nature shines through — she adores her humans and will happily curl up beside you for couch cuddles.
Rue gets along well with cats and other small dogs, but big dogs make her nervous, so she’s looking for a home where she can feel safe and confident. She’s shown some separation anxiety, so she’ll do best with someone who’s home often or can help her build up her comfort level over time. Rue is also a bit of a trickster — she’s been known to jump or squeeze through gates if she spots an opening!
She’s housebroken when kept on a regular schedule, and she’s still learning about the leash — a little patience and positive encouragement will help her master it in no time.
Rue is currently on medical hold until she has seen our vet, but she’ll soon be ready to start her journey toward finding her forever home.
Rue’s ideal home is one where she can get plenty of love, patience, and security — a family who will help her continue to blossom into the confident, happy pup she’s meant to be.
If you think you and Rue might be the perfect match, please contact our Adoption Coordinator (previously approved applicants) at Amy.Frye@gmpr.org. Her adoption fee is $500.

Meet Leta & Dewey – Double the Love, Double the Fun!
Leta and Dewey are an adorable bonded pair of 11-month-old black pugs who came into rescue through a loving surrender when their boundless energy just didn’t mesh with the other pug in their home. These two are full of life, laughter, and love — and they’re looking for a forever family ready to keep up with their playful spirits!
Leta and Dewey are the best of friends and do everything together — from zooming around the house to curling up for cozy cuddles on the couch (or in bed… they’re not picky!). They’re true velcro pugs who adore being close to their humans and will happily follow you from room to room just to be near you.
Dewey is a bit on the chubby side right now and will need to shed about 10 pounds to get back to his ideal pug figure. Before coming into rescue, they were free-fed, so their foster family is helping them learn healthy eating habits and portion control. Their house training is a work in progress, but with patience and consistency, they’re making great strides.
They do well with other dogs — though Dewey can be a little nervous around bigger pups, he’s gaining confidence and will continue to improve with gentle socialization.
Leta and Dewey are everything you love about pugs — affectionate, funny, loyal, and full of personality. They’ll bring endless joy (and probably a few giggles) to the lucky family who opens their heart and home to them.
If you’re ready for double the snuggles, double the kisses, and double the pug love, Leta and Dewey can’t wait to meet you!
If you think you might be the perfect match for Dewey and Leta, please contact our Adoption Coordinator (previously approved applicants) at
Amy.Frye@gmpr.org. Please note, we are not accepting new applications for Dewey and Leta at this time. Their adoption fee is $1100.

Meet Chloe!
Chloe is a darling 6–9 month old black pug whose joyful spirit is impossible to resist! This sweet girl is playful, affectionate, and full of puppy charm. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and loves having a canine buddy to romp and play with — in fact, she’d be happiest in a home with another young dog to match her energy.
Chloe is already housetrained and proving to be a perfect little house guest. She rides well in the car, loves people, and has an easygoing, happy nature that makes her a delight to be around.
If you’re looking for a cheerful, social pug puppy who will bring endless love and laughter to your home, Chloe might just be the one!
If you think you and Chloe might be the perfect match, please contact our Adoption Coordinator (previously approved applicants) at Amy.Frye@gmpr.org. Please note, we are not accepting new applications for Chloe at this time. Her adoption fee is $550.

***AVAILABLE TO NEW & PRE-APPROVED APPLICANTS***
Meet Winston!
This charming 5-year-old Puggle made his way to New England all the way from Texas, and he’s ready to find his forever family! Winston is a happy, energetic boy who loves to play and explore. When he first arrived in his foster home, he excitedly dashed around checking out every corner and quickly made friends with the resident dogs.
Winston is social and playful with dogs his size or smaller, but he can be a bit nervous around big dogs, so a home without large canine companions would be ideal for him. He loves every treat he can get his paws on and doesn’t guard his food or toys—he’s a true gentleman when it comes to sharing.
This sweet boy enjoys his walks (though he could use a little practice with the leash) and would thrive with an active adopter who can take him on daily adventures. He sleeps best snuggled in bed with his humans and is crate-trained when left alone. Winston has also done well meeting children and loves making new friends.
Full of personality and affection, Winston is looking for someone who can keep up with his fun-loving energy and give him the love he so deserves.
If you think you and Winston might be the perfect match, please contact our Adoption Coordinator (previously approved applicants) at Amy.Frye@gmpr.org or submit an online adoption application here. His adoption fee $375.

***AVAILABLE TO PRE-APPROVED APPLICANTS ONLY***
Meet Capone!
If you’re looking for a new best friend—or a best friend for your best friend—Capone might just be your guy! This 1-year-old fawn Pug came to us all the way from Mexico through one of our rescue partnerships, and he’s been winning hearts ever since. His adventures may have started south of the border, but he’s ready to keep the good times rolling right here in Vermont!
Capone is a curious, confident, and endlessly entertaining little guy who’s up for anything life throws his way. Need someone to supervise you in the bathroom? He’s your man. A taste tester for that new recipe? He’s overqualified. Copilot and navigator for your trip to the grocery store or family reunion? He’s already got his seatbelt on.
This young pug loves everyone he meets—big dogs, small dogs, kids, and people alike. He’s even curious about cats, though the resident kitty in his foster home isn’t quite ready to return his enthusiasm. Capone adores his daily walks with his foster brother Roger and enjoys a good play session with his toys.
He’s still got a little puppy energy but is easily redirected when he gets too rambunctious. Housebreaking is going great—he’s a fast learner and doesn’t need a belly band with an attentive human. He’s crate trained, sleeps through the night, and is gentle when taking treats (which, by the way, are his absolute favorite!). Capone is already mastering “sit” and “hold,” and would love to keep learning with his forever family.
With his big personality and clownish charm, Capone is the kind of pug who brings laughter and love wherever he goes. He’s ready for his next adventure.
If you think you and Capone might be the perfect match, please contact our Adoption Coordinator (previously approved applicants) at Amy.Frye@gmpr.org. Please note, we are not accepting new applications for Capone at this time. Her adoption fee is $500.
