    Laura was amazing. She responded to my request properly. After speaking with her and figuring out that the pug would be a great fit for us. She was able to drive her to my home. Bright has been an amazing addition to our family. She is my little buddy and I couldn’t be happier. She’s such a sweetheart I would highly recommend with Lara and Piggy Pugs

    Lara was wonderful to work with! We are over the moon with our new addition to the family. We can tell our puppy was well-loved & very well cared for!! Meeting Lara & being able to talk with her about our puppy & to see in-person the love & care she has for her dogs meant a lot to me. She was easy to get a hold of for any questions we had. Our puppy is spunky & adorable & we couldn’t be happier.

    We had a fantastic experience with Lara. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the pug breed and was always responsive, kind, and helpful throughout the entire process. It is clear that she genuinely cares about her dogs and puts so much love and attention into what she does. Thanks to her, we welcomed Hugo into our family. He is a wonderful, healthy, and happy puppy who has already brought so much joy into our lives. We will be forever grateful to Lara for adding such a beautiful member to our family. We highly recommend her.

    Lara was great, I couldn’t reccomend her more! She was extremely responsive throughout the whole process, kept me updated with pictures, and very flexible in helping me find a time to come pick up my pug, Cooper! Cooper was in great health and is a perfect dog. I searched through lots of pug breeders when looking for Cooper and I would 100% recommend Piggy Pugs!
