Pugs And Hugs Rescue Needs Help With Delilah’s Care

Hello rescue pup supporters! My name is Amanda and I am a volunteer with Pugs and Hugs Rescue. I want to introduce you to one of their rescue pups; her name is Delilah. Delilah was found abandoned in Mexico and was rescued by Pugs And Hugs Rescue, which is a brand new rescue (501c3 status still pending) focusing on pugs, pug mixes, and smaller dogs. Delilah is currently en route to Colorado to meet her new foster mama, Maggie. Unfortunately, a couple days ago it was discovered that Delilah is heartworm positive. Additionally, Delilah likely has some orthopedic needs due to an attack from another dog, and the extent of which we do not know yet.

As you can see in the photos, it was a team effort to get Delilah out of Mexico and on her way to Colorado, all owing to the generosity of volunteers who love to rescue doge in need. Pilots N Paws flew Delilah (and two other Pugs and Hugs Rescue pups!) to Denton, Texas, for the first leg of the trip. And Guardian Pet Hospital in Denton, Texas, is temporarily caring for Delilah at a discounted rate!

Tomorrow, Saturday April 12, 2025, Pilots N Paws will fly the three Pugs and Hugs Rescue pups, Delilah included, the rest of the way to Colorado! Delilah has a long road ahead of her and her healthcare needs will be expensive. Heartworm will take at least three months to treat, and we believe she has a fracture from being attacked.

Since Pugs And Hugs is a brand new rescue, there is not yet a built-up rescue fund from donations. Because of this, board members have been paying for vetting costs directly out of their own pockets, and Delilah is not the only dog in the rescue needing care! But Delilah definitely has expensive medical care in her immediate future because of her status as heartworm positive.

Soooooooo, if you love dogs, and rescue work is important to you, please consider donating to Delilah’s care! She will be fostered in the Denver area and has been set up with a vet clinic in Arvada. Once she is healthy, she will be available for adoption to a dog-loving home

Good girl, Delilah! Welcome to Colorado, where we love to love on dogs!
