I'm sorry your camera broke! But think of it this way at least your getting that black pug puppy you always wanted!! lol

[junescrater716]

Neither have I!!! It's really cute though. He's fawn/black so that might be the result.

I hate to rain on parades, but I would never buy from that breeder, IMO. :[

Only a 1 year guarentee against genetic problems. You cannot even OFA until 2 years old.

Parents have no titles or health certifications. They are two pet Pugs, with unknown genetic health, who are being bred for money or fun or whatever.

This looks like a classic BYB to me, and I could neverever say I support that, ever. I feel that there's no reason these people should be breeding. There are already tons of Pugs in rescue as it is, it's sad that this breed is being ruined.

[junescrater716]

The parents do have certificates. They have been breeding pugs for several years and no other pug breeder has the one year warrenty. Some don't even have one! lol

[bckrazy]

If they're the only breeder you found with a one-year guarantee, I think you're looking in the wrong places.

What "certificates" do the parents have? There is no mention of that at all.

I have to agree wuth bckrazy this looks like a BYB to me, there is somthing about the parents that just doesnt look right, I have seen a lot of proper pugs and these guys just look "off" to me, the breeder does not strike me as a good one at all

[Giselle]

Agreed with the rest. Abort the sale now and go save a pug from a shelter. Pugs are a fairly popular breed and there has got to be Pug rescues in Oregon. I have family in OR so I could definitely help you find one. You can PM me

Just off hand, here's a PDCA endorsed rescue in WA:

Also, AKC "inspected" and registered means nothing. As far as I know, AKC doesn't inspect breeders unless there is a reason (i.e. alleged claims of abuse, I think). They're just a registry. They're just there to ensure that purebreeds stay pure (and sometimes they can't even do that). They can't ensure quality. In a nutshell, "certificates" from the AKC don't mean much.

Sorry if this comes across as being rude, but why do you want one from a breeder? Like, no offence, but why get one from a breeder that is mis-marked anyways? Mis-marked dogs can't do confrimation, anyways. I'm excited for you, but I really don't understand why you would want one from a breeder.

You could get one from the SPCA that is cheaper and just as good, and *might* even be healthier.

I'm excited for you, (but more excited for puppy pics )

[junescrater716]

Because he's adorable, cheap, spunky, and we don't care about whether or not we can show them. He's getting neutered anyways so he couldn't show even then.

[TFTpwnsYou]

Well, she won't be showing the dog so a mismark is no big thing. And maybe they wanted to go to a breeder because they wanted a puppy, they were looking for a specific color, and they want to be able to meet the parents. I went to breeders for certain reasons myself.

[junescrater716]

What TFT said. lol We will be meeting the breeder sometime next week. Still my mom might be coming home AFTER the puppy arrives so we'll have a big red bow around his neck for her!!!
