Join us in beautiful St Augustine, Florida,
for a day of fun with the pugs.
Pugsgiving 2025 will be held on Saturday, April 12, 2025, 12pm to 4pm
Please help us celebrate our 20th annual Pugsgiving event!
It is our largest fundraising event of the year and an opportunity for our volunteers, previous adopters, and pug lovers to come together for a day of fun and fundraising.
Previously this event was held in Orlando, in the month of November (that's where the name originated), but last year we moved the party to St Augustine, Florida in the spring.
We will continue to celebrate PugFest in Atlanta in November of each year.
Check back soon for a schedule of events!
The day will include:
Contests
Raffle
Silent Auction
Fun in the Dog Park
Vendors
Photo Booth
and more!
