RECENT SHELTER BLOG UPDATES
PUG OF THE MOMENT
| Leia | PH ID: #6734 |
Leia, or Princess Leia is part of the #phstarwarspuppies and was surrendered to us with her 3 other siblings at 5 weeks old from a breeder that was unable to care for them. Leia and her 3 siblings were rushed to our Emergency Clinic and were treated very aggressively for a respiratory infection usually associated with unvaccinated animals in the house. Unfortunately Leia’s brother Luke was the only one to not survive. Leia and her 2 siblings are thriving in their foster home, with no hint of the issues from their past. Leia is on Natural Balance Puppy Limited Ingredient Diet of Salmon and Rice, and eats dry food with warm water added. Leia is doing great at house training and will use the puddle pad when it’s available. She sleeps thru the night in her crate and loves running outside to grass for her morning potty break. Leia is definitely the loudest of the puppies. I would call her a screamer! She loves playing with her siblings and will always have her puppy nylabone dinosaur near. She would spend all day outside if I let her. Puppies like Leia are adorable, but with them comes lots of work. Make sure you understand the importance of a schedule if thinking of adopting a puppy. Leia will be spayed, and I assumed her nares and palate surgery along with all her vaccination prior to adoption.

IMPORTANT FACEBOOK GROUP CHANGES
PugHearts of Houston has maintained a
Group page on Facebook for the past several years. We encourage
past adopters, potential adopters, fosters and all Pug lovers to join us! We love
to post and share photos, heartwarming stories and advice on Pugs.
We have always required that potential FB PugHearts Group members submit a request
to join our group in an effort to control SPAM and unauthorized posts. Group posts
were visible to the public, but only approved group members could post comments
or photos.
However, facebook has recently made some changes to their terms of service which
made the PugHearts Group an “open” group, allowing anyone to post on our FB page.
This resulted in some unfortunate posts which upset many people. It also allows
for unauthorized use of images from our Group and opens our members to breaches
of their privacy. We have now changed the status of our group back to “
Closed”
which once again requires any new members to submit a request to join before they
can post.
This change does not affect any existing facebook group members in any way.
However, with these new changes our
FB Group is now only visible to existing members. None of our posts
or images are available to be viewed by anyone not a current member of our Group.
This ensures the safety of our members as well as the protection of our content.
To become a member of our
FB Group , simply go to our
FB Group page and request to join. Our Administrators
will take a quick peek at your profile to ensure you are a genuine pug-loving person
(and not a SPAM bot) and with one click they will add you as a member. If your FB
profile is brand new or you have a very blank profile, they may ask you for additional
information to verify you are a genuine requestor. Once you are added you can post
and read to your heart’s content. Just remember to play nice and refrain from abusive
posts. We want to encourage and educate Pug lovers by making this a welcoming and
nurturing environment.
So come on over to our
FB Group page and see what’s happening with your fellow
Pug lovers!
