What we’re about
WELCOME TO NW PUGS!
Indoor parties are in full swing! We hope you and your pugs can join us!
What is NW Pugs? We are a community of Pug-Loving People who bring their furry kids to snort, run, and play on the eastside of Seattle.
We are a pug/pug mix group that meets once a month. NW Pugs! has been around since June 2006. Your pug/pug mix will love frolicking around with their friends in a safe, fun environment.
During the warm summer months we gather for "Pugs in the Park" meetups. We also branch out to include shelter benefit walks, pubs, and other fun stuff to do with our pugs!
Since June 2006, we have had a total of 374 meetups.
Thank you for your interest in joining NW Pugs!

I decided to continue the group in Memory of Luci Lu, who inspired me to start NW Pugs! back in May 2006.
My Luci Lu 11.26.04 - 10.11.2021 she was 1 month away from being 17. RIP my wild girl.
On June 12, 2022, my Zoe Zo joined Luci Lu over the rainbow bridge, 2 months shy of 15. She was the true definition of a pug, a sweet, loyal, and well-behaved little girl.
Run free, girls, run free!
February 2025 Update on meetup.com issues. If you are using the app, meetup recommends taking the app off your phone and installing it again. It is best to check the website for invites and reminders. I was thinking of moving to another platform but I have had the group on meetup for almost 19 years and plan on keeping it here for now. Too many memories to lose if I left meetup.

Please read all of the information provided and don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. I'm here to help! :-)
*Don't forget to RSVP on our website! Your RSVP shows others that YES members are going! Your yes RSVP is not an entry ticket.* Link below to register.
Over the years, we've had so much fun with many NW Pugs! members joining us for the Furry 5K. We can’t wait to see you and your adorable pugs at the walk this year!
EVENT DETAILS:
This Fundraiser is put together by Seattle Animal Shelter and not NW Pugs!
Plan on leaving home early, parking in the neighborhood can be tricky if you haven't attended in the past.
If it is hot, it might be best for your pug to stay home. Please use your best judgment on how your pug is in warm weather. Safety first is the most important!
We gather near the registration tables next to the trail for a group photo at about 11:15 AM. You are welcome to walk with us or at your leisure. This event will take place rain or shine.
The race is followed by Pet-a-Palooza, with entertainment, festive music, awards, an interactive vendor area and food trucks.
