From Johnny Boy’s dad: It’s with great sadness that I have to inform you that one of my CPR alum has crossed the Rainbow Bridge, where he will be great by my childhood dog, Ninja and CPR alum Andy and Bijoux. Johnny Boy was my best friend for 4 1/2 years. To all out there: adopt a senior. Their pure and grateful love is unparalleled. I think of the sticker that says ‘Who rescued who?’ When I think of my seniors. They rock!

Hi All,
My name is Boomer. I am 13 years young.. unfortunately, my people moved away and they could not take me with them. I was an only dog, left alone most of the day by myself. I was pretty bored and lonesome…so when they brought me to Compassionate Pugs to find me a forever home, I was elated.
Right now I am in a foster home and am being spoiled beyond my wildest dreams. My foster mom feeds me the best food…anyone hear of Spot’s Stew? Well, since I have been on this food, my skin and coat look great! (That’s why I look so young). I will say that I simply love to eat…so much so that you will always find me sitting in the kitchen…waiting for food.
My foster mom has two other dogs…I get along great with them. I have just one little problem, but it is not really a problem…my hearing is not as it used to be. When she calls for the other dogs to go outside, I follow them or my foster mom will motion for me to go out and we all run out together. I am 100% toilet trained, and know how to tell you when I want to go outside.
My foster mom will be very sad to see me go as she has fallen deeply in love with me, but that’s life and I need to be in a permanent home where I can have stability. I am a good dog and I will make you laugh…you should see me sit up like a person…everyone that meets me can’t get over it. I have a face you just want to love. I promise I will make you smile!!!

It is with great sadness to report to you that Lolita crossed over to the Rainbow Bridge this morning.
Ester and Mark Dichter who adopted Angi’s Buddy, opened their hearts and home to foster Lolita on Saturday after she spent two nights at Dr. Barbosa’s office. This morning she was in respiratory distress and I met them over at Hollywood Animal Hospital where Dr. Sessa was between surgeries and said she was “dying”. Her gums were pale and she was struggling.
During the three days she spent with the Dichter’s, she was so loved and had 24/7 care and attention. She didn’t die abandoned at a shelter. She died knowing that people loved and cared for her in her final days.

There is a HUGE hole in my heart tonight. Had to let our Weezy go over the rainbow bridge this afternoon. She has taught us a lot in the 3 short years that we had her. We got her from Compassionate Pug Rescue as a 9-year old. 2mo after we got her, I noticed a growth on her belly that ended up being an aggressive type of cancer. We did 2 invasive surgeries to remove it. She was a very healthy and happy puggie for over 2 1/2yrs. Thursday she got sick and the vet found a large growth by her spleen pushing on her organs. She went down hill before we could do an ultrasound on Mon. I am extremely grateful for the unconditional love and affection that she gave to us. Words CANNOT express my love for Weezy. We will always adopt senior pugs from Compassionate Pug Rescue! There is nothing like the love of a senior rescue.
