    West Georgia Pugs was amazing every step of the way! I lost my 16yo dog in January and they were kind enough to give me loads of updates, pictures, and videos. Violet is a wonderful little dog and doing very well at her new home. She's not a fan of the cold however! These people truly raise puppies with love and care. They even sent me home with food and toys for my baby!

    My experience with Shane and West Georgia Pugs was fantastic. I had been dreaming of getting a pug puppy for the last year. I chose to work with West Georgia Pugs because of the wonderful reviews and I could tell their dogs were really healthy. The entire experience from selecting one through "gotcha day" went so smoothly. They sent me the cutest weekly updates of my little pug puppy. I highly recommend choosing West Georgia Pugs when you're ready to bring home you're adorable little baby.❤️

    Omg Pig has just been the best part of our life. You would think that our Cane Corso was his mom. They are always cuddled up and he is such a rascal!! Thank you so much!! We love him and his outgoing personality!!! He fits right in with our brood.

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an absolutely wonderful experience getting our pug, Brisket, from West Georgia Pugs. From the very beginning, communication was clear, honest, and reassuring. You can truly tell how much care, knowledge, and love they put into their dogs. Brisket came to us happy, healthy, well socialized, and clearly raised with intention. They were transparent about health, pedigree, and answered every question we had without hesitation. The entire process felt professional but also very personal. We never felt rushed or left in the dark. If you’re looking for a breeder who genuinely cares about their puppies and the families they go to, I can’t recommend West Georgia Pugs enough. We are so grateful to have Brisket and couldn’t be happier with our experience!

    Shane was nice and trustworthy! We picked up our pug on Thursday. We were so excited! We love Doug, that is what my son named him. Doug the pug lol. He is sweet, healthy, and well loved. Already spoiled. I would definitely buy another pug from Shane. Would definitely recommend.
