I'm Mari Anne P., the breeder behind Mari Anne Parks located in Longview, WA. Chelsea Pugs was established in 2001. We are breeders who do everything we can to better the breed and ensure our dogs and puppies are able to get the very most out of life. We work very hard at breeding healthy, conformationally correct Pugs that can be competitive in the top show rings. Since we cannot keep all of our puppies, a few are placed in select pet homes.
Q. & A. with Mari Anne
Why did you start breeding?
I purchased my first female in 2003 from a longtime, well-known Pug breeder. After finishing her championship, breeding her was the next step if I wanted to continue to show. Fortunately, I had wonderful mentors.
What makes your program special?
We have been very fortunate to get exceptional females from our litters. We’ve done very well with them at the top shows in the US and overseas. Again, I could not have the success I’ve had with help from knowledgeable mentors.
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 and guardian homes.
