    Bandit!

    Writing a review because I read a review from a Jiselle over issues with "Boots". As the owner and best friend of "Boots" he now prefers the name "Bandit" I am happy to say he is an amazing, loving dog and no - he does not have any underlying issues unless being a bed hog and cuddly is an issue. Thank you for allowing me to adopt "Boots" and thank you for all you do for these dogs.

    Rude text from sara
    Christine L.

    Sara is completely rude and has terrible communication. On the phone she said she had a fawn female available and then I asked to see photos. When the photos came, it was actually a black female. I politely asked if she could send a video and she was incredibly rude with the response in the photo. She said in snarky rude response that she didn't have time to send a video and to see the puppy in person. She said the dog would be adopted immediately if put on the website, which makes me further wonder if she was selling dogs on the side apart from the adoption agency. I am over an hour away from Moreno Valley, and she belittled my small request for a video if possible. I don't Understand why she needed to respond to rudely as I genuinely wanted to adopt. It was such a bad experience with her and I hope she doesn't act this way to anyone else. Update: See Sara's response to my accurate review. Look at how rude she is and also to clarify, I declined her adoption offer, she was already going to let me pick up the puppy.

    We adopted this sweet boy Patrick (now Kobe) and so far he is everything we were hoping for in a dog. He is so sweet, he's energetic when he's outside but when he's inside he's a little couch potato. Sara met us at a park and let us walk around with him and get to know him before deciding to make him ours. She gave us all his vaccination papers. We went to so many shelters, but all the dogs we were interested in had insane waiting lists in our area. We're so glad we went with a rescue, it was personal and we got to really meet the dog. We are so happy to have this cuddly boy home and we can't wait to see his personality continue to come out!

    We adopted our Chug from Bubbas Hug a Pug and we love love our pup. The whole process was super simple. I applied, met in person to meet the pups and took one with home with me. Sarah was very helpful in the whole process.

    We adopted bElla from Bubba's and Sara. She is a young 9 year old apricot pug who loves walks and bacon. She had been spayed and came with all her shots. Great outfit! Thank you.

    We are so happy to have gotten our lovely pup from Sara and Bubba's rescue. He came neutered and with all of his vaccinations and all of the documentation. He's in great health, and after a few days of adjustment settled into our family. Sara was really helpful when I got him home and was trying to figure out what to feed him, and she just generally seems super on top of everything. Thanks for helping us find our pup, we love him!

    Missy day 1 at her new forever home . I'm thankful to be her new momma .  I promise to take care of her all the days of her life.

    What an amazing organization. Sara is the founder of this rescue. She is amazing to work with. Her heart for animals is amazing. We have been lucky enough to adopt Missy through her. The application process was easy, she was easy to communicate with, she was trustworthy, and she re-homes this wonderful little girl to our family. She paid for all of the shots,, spaying and whatever else Missy may have needed. Please don't trust the negative review on here. She deserves 10 stars and pls rescue if you can

    I adopted a beautiful 2 year old Pug from Bubba's Hug a Pug Rescue almost a year ago. The adoption process was quick and easy. The staff is nice, helpful, and quick to respond to email inquiries. Shot and spay records provided at the time of adoption and the fee to adopt is pretty standard compared to other Pug rescues. Would recommend to anyone looking to adopt.

    My new granddog.
    Sherry H.

    This is my new granddog, Missy. Before adoption she was kept in a cage for breeding. Because of Sarah's kindness, care and persistent work, we were able to adopt her and make her part of our family. Missy is an incredible soul. We will forever be grateful to Sarah's care of these precious fur babies.

    Sorry for the delay. However about a month to a month and a half ago my wife and i adopted Rocky (now his name is Howie) Honestly greatest decision we have made. Howie us such a loving and caring puppy. I brought the vet card to my vet and had him checked out. They advised that it looks like he was taken care if really well as well his shots were done as close to up to date as possiable (he was too young for rabies shot) The meet and greet with Howie, my wife, and Sara went well at a local park. Sara had all the documents ready and it was super easy. I would whole heartily recommend anyone to adopt from Sara at Bubba hugs pug rescue! The photo of Howir in the harness is his at adoption. The 2nd is him yesterday.

When I found out about this place through a lady who saw me passing out sandwiches, I couldn't help but extend a hand. So I called and spoke with Luis to see how I could be of assistance and find out about receiving food myself to pass out and this guy and Ms. Ludo were very informative. So me and my son got a rental, headed to the food pantry, and loaded the car up for a trip to the high desert! For those interested in helping this place will guide you every step of the way to make sure you got everything needed. From how to online guides, waiver forums, etc. They even have it mobile app friendly! Just make sure to start early if you're doing deliveries to people's houses so you can see where you're going and to beat the heat. Great bonding and learning experience for me and my son but not only that just a blessing there's a company likes this available to offer such services.

My sister and I usually volunteer the afternoon shift which Iasts for 3 hours, when we have free time.
