As a registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization, we rescue and rehabilitate unwanted pugs in South Korea. We then find them permanent homes in both South Korea and the U.S. Although we attempt to keep the pugs in their country of origin, their re-home rate in Korea is very low. In these instances, we fly the pugs to the US to their forever homes.We are a group of dedicated volunteers located in both South Korea and California. With a team of 6 volunteers total in both countries, our team takes no income for their services and instead does this entirely on their own time and our own expense-- simply for the love of pugs.
