Meet the breeder

I'm Amanda L., the breeder behind Lovable Squished Faces located in Lula, GA.

Q. & A. with Amanda

  • Why did you start breeding?

    When we bought our house, we then had the space to start breeding. I started with an English Bulldog which was an excellent mom, but the pugs stole my heart.
  • What makes your program special?

    I only have two or three litters a year, so I am a small time breeder. I focus on health and temperament.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include black and fawn. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

Getting a puppy from Amanda

Amanda has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.

Amanda partners with buyers to find the best match as the puppies develop and their personalities take shape. Typically, matches are finalized when the puppies reach about 8 weeks old.

“I want every family to be happy with their puppy. Based on what temperaments I have in each litter, I try to match what the new owner is looking for in a new dog. Either one that is a little more laid back, or one that is more outgoing and energetic. Keeping in mind, all puppies are energetic until they are about 2 or 3 years old. Please keep in mind, I do get first pick of puppies since I do show them and I am looking for very specific things to show my future puppies. ”
