New Baby!!!!

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

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.

We don't really care if it's a "proper pug" or not. If the pug is happy, healthy and safe thats all that matters. If the pug isn't show quality we don't care. We love them just the same. We got curly at the pet store without any info on his parents and we love him to death but he isn't show quality.

I was refering to the the breeding itself, the parents dont look right and should not have been bred in the first place, I couldnt care less if the puppy itself is not show quality and will be fixed, its the person who bred the pups parents in the first place that concerns me.

We're meeting them on the 21st so if we don't like the look of it then it's off.
