Meet the breeder

I'm Cameo F., the breeder behind Cameo's Pugs located in Baylis, IL. I have had a pug in my life for 42 years. They truly are man's best friend. My current females, Lilly Pug and Phoenix, are my children I never had. There is nothing we don't do together. I believe every pet needs their very own person! If my puppies are anything like their momma, they will never leave your side. Very devoted!

Q. & A. with Cameo

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I was raised around pugs. My mom was a breeder my entire childhood. There’s nothing better than growing up with a pug for a pet. I decided I couldn’t live without a pug when I went out on my own. My pug children are the light of my life, and I decided that I needed some grand-puppies to share my joy of pugs with others.

  • What makes your program special?

    I raise my pugs in my home. They are not kept in pens or on chains. When the babies are old enough to walk, I spend a few minutes every evening with each one of them individually. They get to play with me and run around and grow their curiosities. They get to develop personalities, which also helps me pair them up with their very own human. They just want to love and be loved!

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies are fawn. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    We are SO in love with our Winnie girl! And we have Cameo thank! Winnie has been such a blessing and it is very apparent that she participated in some early trainings and exposure to different sights, sounds, and experiences. We can tell that Winnie was invested in from birth to the day we brought her home. Cameo is excellent at what she does. Not only because she is a responsive and comprehensive communicator, but because you can tell she has a true passion and love for the pups in her care. We are so grateful for the number of pictures and videos she shared of Winnie while we anxiously awaited our chance to bring her home. For anyone seeking a beautiful pug puppy that is well socialized and eager to love, I would recommend Cameo every time! Should life bring us to a place to adopt another pug, Cameo would be our first contact!

    We are so head over heels in love with our wonderful pug puppy! She is a healthy, happy, beautiful girl who is well socialized, loving, and so easy to potty train too. She is the perfect picture of a well bred pug. We couldn't be happier with our experience with Cameo. She was responsive and kept us updated regularly after reserving our sweet Mei Lin. Our puppy attached so quickly and settled in beautifully. She is just gorgeous, and we would highly recommend Cameo.

    After losing our last little pug, it took me a while before I was ready for another. I searched and searched for a breeder that was responsible, kind, knowledgeable, and also produced the best looking Pugs out there. I definitely found that in Cameo. We worked together emailing back and forth for nearly 9 months until I got the news that there was a little girl waiting for me! Later, my brother decided he wanted to adopt a little boy pug from Cameo as well. We could not have imagined a better breeder! Cameo is a very special person with an enormous heart and love for pugs. We drove 6 hours each way to pick up the pups and it was SO worth it! Our puppies are a PERFECT representation of the breed and so well socialized! I don’t think there are enough words to thank her or describe how happy I am with the whole experience! Thank you Cameo (and Phoenix and Pooh too!). You are THE BEST! Xoxo, Shawna (and Liza Jane)

    Cameo was very helpful and timely with her responses! Throughout the whole process she was upfront and communicated any updates and indulged all of our questions and overly excited eagerness to meet our puppy. We love our little guy so much and couldn't be happier!

    Cameo was very helpful and accommodating for me to come get our Pug as it was little last minute and unexpected. Maggie is doing great and is a very busy pup.

    Oh we love our puppy because of her! She made everything so easy for us. We loved all the updates she would provide each week, so we could watch our little man grow. So so blessed to have him
