About

Puggles & Pitties is a very small rescue based in San Diego, CA. We rescue just a handful of dogs at a time, rehabilitate them as necessary, and find their new forever homes. Our focus is on puggles, pit bull-type dogs, and boxers.

Adoption process

Our adoption process includes the following: 1. You fill out an Application and return it to the rescue. 2. We review your Application and follow up with a phone call to ask questions and get a better sense of the person behind the app. 3. Vet reference is checked, as is verifying with your landlord that the dog is permitted in the home (if applicable). 4. Meet-N-Greet. We will arrange for you to meet the dog you are interested in at a location mutually convenient to all. We do not have a shelter facility nor do we hold regular adoption events, so all meetings are done on a one-on-one basis by appointment. If there are children or other dogs in your home, this is also the time to see if your potential new family member gets along well with them. 5. Home visit. Every potential forever home must undergo a home visit before the dog will be released to your care. NO EXCEPTIONS!! 6. 24-Hour “Cooling Off” Period. Everyone wants the dog that is right in front of them looking adorable. To make sure you are making the decision with your head and not your heart, after the home visit we require a 24 hour period where you think realistically about bringing this particular dog into your home and all of the changes this will require you to make in your schedule, routine, and life. 7. If after this time you would like to proceed with the adoption, the contract is signed, the adoption fee paid, and the dog becomes your new little bundle of joy!! Criminal background checks are run on all applicants of “bully breed” dogs. All dogs adopted through Puggles & Pitties will be altered prior to adoption and will be up to date on all shots, as appropriate for the dog’s age.
