Q. & A. with Pugs
Why did you start breeding?
I remember how hard it was for me to find a breeder and decided to grow and share the love of the breed with others.What makes your program special?
Have always been a Pug person even as a child. I hand raise these puppies including laying on the floor for hours a week making sure everyone is growing as needed. We have missed important family events to care for our animals.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black, fawn, and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

I had a wonderful experience picking up Aspen—now Alfredo! This was my first time purchasing a dog through a breeder, so I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. While I do wish I had received a bit more guidance throughout the process, overall it was a positive experience and I would recommend this breeder to others. Alfredo came to me at a critical stage in his development at 7 month old, which has made training and adjustment a bit more intensive than I anticipated. While that’s not a reflection on the breeder, I had hoped that a dog adopted at an older age might have had some foundational training in place. Additionally, when I brought him home, I noticed several scabs on his body from rough play with other dogs. This wasn't disclosed to me at the time of purchase, but I would have appreciated knowing that detail a little earlier in the process. Despite these minor bumps, I’m so happy to have Alfredo in my life. He’s healthy, happy, and such a joy—and I’m grateful to the breeder for connecting us!

They were so helpful with working with me to get everything completed and meeting with the dog nanny to get my sweet puppy delivered to me. We were in constant communication throughout the entire trip with texts and pictures until he was safely delivered to my door.
