DYLAN
The moment we drove
into the driveway and saw
Dylan outside with Gail, we
fell in love with that little
boy and knew we would
be taking him home that
night. We learned Dylan
came to Homeward Bound
from a pound. He was set
to be euthanized within a
few days if Gail and her
team had not rescued him.
He had a broken back leg from either being hit by a car or abused by
a previous owner. Homeward Bound paid for Dylan’s surgery to fix his
broken leg. We often thought he had been abused because he would
cower at us for the first several months that we had him. Luckily though,
Dylan learned to trust us. We cannot imagine all of the horrible things
that Dylan may have gone through when he was younger.
Even with all of that, he was happiest pug we have ever seen. He
never had a bad day. He loved going to bed in his crate at night. In
the morning he would get up and his tail would instantly curl and start
wagging. He had the softest and most beautiful coat of fur. We gave
Dylan the middle name Rambunctious and no name could have suited
him better. While our other two pugs were playing with us, Dylan could
often be found trying to sneak cat food. He loved being with his two pug
brothers and you could tell that he truly cherished getting to be a part
of a family that loved him and took good care of him. Earlier this year,
Dylan was diagnosed with histoplasmosis. This past April Dylan could
no longer fight this infection and passed away.
While Dylan was a part of our family
for only 6 short years, he will live in
our hearts and minds forever! He
taught us to not take life for granted
but instead to appreciate every day
that we get to spend with the ones
we love.
Dilly Dill Pickle, we love you and
miss you everyday. We will never
forget your kind heart, soft fur and
abundant kisses!

Gracie Lou Freebush
Her full name was Gracie
Lou Freebush. We adopted
her from Homeward
Bound Pug Rescue on
August 4, 2007. Grace
was rescued from a puppy
mill by Homeward Bound
in May, 2007. The time in
the puppy mill left Grace
with a lot of emotional
baggage. I’d never met a
dog that wouldn’t go by
people. Grace spent many
weeks pacing the house
constantly, unable to relax
unless she was in her
kennel where she felt safe.
Slowly, Grace began to emerge from her shell and although she never
overcame all of her fears, she made leaps and bounds over the six years that
she lived with us. Although Grace was a stout 16 pound pug, her personality
was as large as her name. When Grace was able to relax and let down her
guard, we discovered that she was a silly pug with funny quirks – like her love
for fabric. Grace loved to chew on fabric. Though this fabric habit could get
her in trouble at times – like when she’d chew holes in our sheets while laying
on our bed, or pull clothes off the hanger in my closet to chew on, or when she
once tried to pull the shower curtain down so she could chew on it!
Grace was my traveling partner – if I put her in the car to go someplace, she’d
lay down and relax, as if to say, “Wake me up when we get there”, no matter
how far the drive was. She drove to Oklahoma, Chicago (where we walked
on the Magnificent Mile with her in her stroller), and Minnesota. Grace also
traveled by plane with me to Texas and Tennessee – she was such a well
behaved girl on the planes that fellow passengers would often remark that
they never even knew I had a dog with me.
In October of 2011, we found out that Grace had Degenerative Myelopathy
(DM). We knew that her time left with us would be limited and we resolved to
keep her as happy and comfortable as possible for whatever time we had left
together. She was a fighter – Grace battled against the disease for 32 months
before we decided that her little body had had enough fighting and was ready
for peace.
Surrounded by love, in the only place she ever felt comfortable – our home
– we said goodbye to our precious Gracie Lou Freebush on July 1, 2013.
We miss her everyday – our house isn’t the same without her little spitfire
personality. But she left a legacy in our lives – I have a very special spot in
my heart for former puppy mill dogs and I look forward to welcoming more
survivors into our family in Grace’s honor. -Rachel Charles

Puggerfest 2013 DON’T THINK HEARTWORM
PREVENTATIVE IS NECESSARY?
Many people think that heartworms will not affect
their animals because their animals are kept inside
and aren’t around “strange” animals. Did you know
that this is a major misconception? One in five of
the pugs taken into rescue annually with
Homeward Bound Pug Rescue are heartworm positive. Some of the heartworm positive pugs are even
owner surrenders where they have been kept in the
house all the time.
Heartworms are transmitted from infected
mosquitoes. Pesky mosquitoes can easily enter
your home when you open your door to let your pet
out to do its business or when you go on a walk in the evenings. How many times have
you been in your house, but still received a mosquito bite?
Heartworms, if left untreated, can be fatal to animals. However, heartworms are
preventable! With a simple heartworm pill once a month, you can protect your pet from
this horrible disease. Heartworm preventative is also very inexpensive (only about
$5 per month) compared to the cost of treatment which can run from $350 to $600!
Heartworm preventative also protects your animal from several other internal parasites
as well. Treating heartworms can also be very long and painful for your pet too. So,
PLEASE, do your pet a favor – keep them on heartworm preventative year-round! See your vet today and talk to them about heartworm preventative.
Homeward Bound Pug Rescue would like to thank Rockwell Pet Clinic for taking
such great care of our heartworm positive pugs over the last several years.

BE SURE TO MEET OUR
ADOPTABLE PUGS
Not sure who is who?
Most of our adoptable pugs are here for
you to meet. The adoptable pugs are wearing
pirate scrunchies with name tags. Several
of our wonderful pugs are featured on
the next few pages.
ADOPT ME!
Marilyn will be 12 in October and was surrendered by her family. The new baby
made her nervous but Marilyn is as sweet as can be. She loves to follow you
around and although she is a big girl she doesn't mind being in your lap. Marilyn
is on a diet to regain her girlish figure so measuring her food intake is a must.
She is a laid back girl but has moments when she will play with a toy, although
she loses interest fast. She knows how to use a dog door and loves to sleep with
her human if she can. It is hard to lose your family after 11 years but she has
adjusted well and is hoping there is someone out there that would love to give
this sweet senior a forever home. She is a very easy keeper but you must go out
with her when she needs to potty. She doesn't like to be alone. Marilyn would
prefer to be the only queen in her castle.
10
Puggerfest 2013 ELEANOR
ADOPT ME!
Eleanor is a precious girl who is
about six years old. She loves
to be right by your side and will
follow you everywhere. She gets
along great with her fur foster
siblings and is learning to play a
bit. Eleanor seems to have limited
vision but that doesn’t stop her
from getting to where she wants
to go. She loves to sleep with
her human and doesn’t much like
crates. Eleanor has lots of spunk
left and can’t wait to meet her new
family.
Lily came to us as an owner surrender. Her mommy no longer had time to
spend with her. Lily is four years old,
housebroken and the sweetest girl
ever. Right now she is a bit chunky but
we are working on her diet plan and
she will soon have her girlish figure
back. Lily can be shy at first but once
she relaxes she is happy to be your
new best friend. She is a very pretty
girl and gets along great with her
foster fur brothers and sisters but can
be a bit bossy at times. Lily can’t wait
to meet her new family and start her
next adventure in life. LILY
ADOPT ME!
Puggerfest 2013 11
paula jane
Paula Jane was surrendered
by her former mommy when
she could no longer keep her
from scratching all the time.
Paula is seven years old and
has always had allergies. It
got to the point where she was
miserable. We started Paula on
medications and new food and she is doing great.
We discovered by accident that she is allergic to
grass! Her foster home has very little grass and when she gets on grass
for very long, she gets red and itchy. Wiping her down after coming inside
should help with that issue. Paula is very sweet and loving and insists on
being on your lap if it is empty. She loves to sleep with her human and
will lick you for ten minutes before going to sleep. She is housebroken
and will make the perfect companion for someone wanting a loving little
girl to keep them company. She hardly ever barks and is a
complete sweetheart. Paula loved her witch costume and
pranced around like a fashion model!!
ADOPT ME!
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
A huge thank you to all of our volunteers,
fosters, advertisers, sponsors, silent
auction donors and Homeward Bound
Supporters!
Puggerfest couldn’t happen without you! Thank you to all
the people who spent countless hours of
pre-planning, gathering supplies and donations. Thank
you to those that help make sure the races run smoothly,
sell the t-shirts and raffle tickets, work the registration, and
transport the pugs.
The list could go on and on.
We appreciate all that you do!

FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS
What a year it has been! The
highs were very high and the lows were
devastatingly low. It was a year filled
with joy that so many pugs were saved
and found wonderful forever homes,
but also filled with more than our share
of heartbreak. We have never lost so
many sweet pugs and had to say so
many goodbyes. I will never get used
to losing one and my heart breaks with
every passing. Sometimes I just have to abandon ship for a few days to get the
strength to keep going. People constantly ask me “How do you do it? How do
you not just give up?” Trust me, I think of that often and say the same thing to
myself. That is when I go into the archives and start looking at all the pictures
of the pugs that have touched my life over the last ten years and have found
happiness with a family to call their own. I then look into the eyes of the pugs
here with me now and realize that there is no way I can walk away. Some day
maybe, but not today.
I would like to pay tribute to the following precious pugs who touched our
hearts and will never be forgotten. They will be with us always. Although they
never went to what we call their forever home, they all were loved and cherished
by their foster families. I truly believe that they all were right where they were
supposed to be.
Beatrice: My sweet wiggly girl enjoyed every moment of every day. Beatrice
was completely blind and was found wandering by herself. She was one of the
happiest little pugs ever.
Bentley: Bentley came to us with seizures that couldn’t be controlled. His time
with us was short but he had such a beautiful soul and left a huge hole in my
heart. I was hoping I could help him, but it wasn’t meant to be.
Bogey: Bogey was rushed to us from a shelter in Wichita. Oh how I wanted to
take those awful seizures away and give you the life you deserved. I still think of
you often and know you are now at peace.
Cindy: This little girl had so many
problems. She never gave up on
herself and fought so hard to stay
with her foster mommy that loved
her so very much. Her little body
finally had enough. Hughbert: What a sweet and
gentle soul you were. Your foster
mommy loved you so much! You
left us unexpectantly but we will
treasure every moment we had with
you.
14
Puggerfest 2013 Lettie: I never met you, but your foster
mommy and daddy posted so many
pictures and updates that I felt I knew
you. No pug was more loved than you
were. You left us, knowing what it was
like to be loved by a family to call your
own.
Louie: My little old man was blind and
crippled with arthritis and was found in
the country as a stray. He had heart
problems and our vet didn’t think he
would last two weeks. He made it a year before his body finally gave up. He was
a crusty old man but I loved him and he ruled the roost. His last day was spent
outside being held and enjoying one more day of sunshine.
Pugsley: Pugsley was with us for several years. He was such a gentleman and
oh so very sweet. He loved to be with his human and was happy and content
just being by your side.
Rudolph: Rudy was turned into a vet clinic to be euthanized. What a gentle
giant he was! He loved everyone and formed a special bond with his human
foster brother. He left us very unexpectantly but surrounded by love.
Spanky: Spanky came to us from the Joplin tornado. He was not in great shape
when we got him but slowly learned how to love and trust again. His foster mom
took such good care of him and he knew how much he was loved.
SuLin: What a cranky little treasure she was! She came to us from the shelter
after her family dumped her there. She was diabetic and 13 years old. She
fought a hard battle but lived life to the fullest. I miss her every day.
Toby/Einstein: Toby came to us from another rescue. He was only eight months
old and such a handsome boy. His little legs were deformed and we were going
to try and help him. He was such a joy and nicknamed Einstein as he learned
things so quickly. Everyone who met him, fell in love. His time with us was very
short, but we will never forget him.
Zipper: This little guy was the most precious boy!
He was in kidney failure when we got him, but
thanks to his two foster mommies he made it two
years before his body just gave out.
Each one of these babies took a piece of my heart
with their passing. But they also taught me many
lessons. The most important one being, live in the
moment. Enjoy life to the fullest, accept what life
throws at you, and be kind to others.
Rest in peace sweet angels. We will meet again.

WHY SHOULD
YOU SPAY AND NEUTER?
•
Because you love your pet!
•
No unwanted or “oops” litters (or no more “free to
good home” ads on Craigslist!)
•
No medical expenses for raising kittens or puppies.
•
Reduce the risk of mammary tumors in females.
•
No risk of uterine or testicular cancer.
•
Reduce the risk of male dogs and cats marking and roaming (twice as many males as females are injured or killed by automobiles.)
•
It’s part of nature that animals want to mate.
Having them “fixed” eliminates this desire and
allows them to be more devoted pets.
•
Know that YOU are helping control pet
overpopulation.
•
Longer lifespan, healthier pet.

In Memory Of
Viki Cleavelin
October 21, 1968 January 20, 2013
Viki was one of those individuals who
could do just about anything she set
her mind to and do it well. She was a
dedicated nurse and her love for babies
drew her to the neonatal unit of one of the
biggest hospitals in the Southwest. Besides her love of family, art,
gardening and sewing, Viki had a passion for animals and took home
many strays finding homes for them or making them part of her furry
family. About 6 years ago she was drawn to an Amazon Parrot in a pet
store who had been mistreated by its owners and returned to the store.
Although he developed into a 'biter' and even bit her in the store, Viki
adopted Arnie and took him home. We lost our precious Viki in January
and miss her terribly but will remember always her love of animals. She
always wanted to come to OKC and attend Puggerfest and although she
couldn't make it this year, her mother Nita is here today volunteering in
her name. If there would be anyone you would expect standing on the
other side of the Rainbow Bridge welcoming our pets home, holding a
puppy in one arm and a baby in the other, it is Viki.
We love you & will always remember,
Aunt Niki, Uncle Tony,
Harley, Bella, Prince
& Arnie

OUR PUGS
NEED FOSTER
HOMES!
Because Homeward Bound
Pug Rescue does not have
a shelter, we rely solely on
our foster homes to provide
a safe and stable temporary
home to get our pugs ready
for adoption.
Because many of our dogs
cannot be immediately
adopted the only way that we
can save these animals is with the help of foster homes.
Some pets will need to be in a foster home until they can
be spayed or neutered, at which time they are ready for
adoption. Pugs who are ill or injured may need to stay
in foster care until they are well enough for adoption. In
some cases, a foster home is needed to help an animal
transition from the stress of a bad situation, such as a
puppy mill, abuse, etc.
The number of animals we can save depends entirely on
the number of people who open their homes and hearts to
foster them. Please consider fostering a pug.
