What is a Health Guarantee?
Posted on 2008-04-16 by Kelle Arvay (Viewed 659 times)
It’s actually a oxymoron when you think about it. I don’t know of any breeder that could, with 100% certainty guarantee the future health of any puppy they produce. It doesn’t matter how much health testing or the choosing of the best bloodlines, no breeder can guarantee a dogs health throughout it’s lifetime. The term “warranty” would be a better term. When you purchase a puppy it’s not the same as purchasing a new car where you get a bumper to read more...

Posted on 2008-01-20 by Kelle Arvay (Viewed 985 times)
Any breeder breeding such colors as brindle, white or grey Pugs, beware! These colors do NOT appear naturally in our breed. In order to obtain such colors another breed has to be introduced. So before you go out and buy that rare brindle colored Pug, know that you are not buying a pure Pug, but a mixed breed. Both of the parents may appear to look like Pugs, but somewhere in their family tree a dog of another breed was introduced, such as a French Bulldog, Boston Terrier or similiar.  A read more...

Our neighbors brought home a new dog recently. Unfortunately for us, they don't know how to train it and, as a result, they keep it outside at nights. It's very difficult to sleep when you have a "yippy" dog living next to you. Their bark just seems to pierce through the walls and into your read more...

Pugs have been long known as wash and wear little dogs with the good fortune of having minimal grooming requirements. While these delightful little compact dogs may not need the grooming of a toy poodle, they still have their own grooming needs. For the Pug the grooming includes keeping their nails trimmed, which I recommend you cut them once a week to keep them nice and short. Be careful not to cut the quick and make them bleed. You can use regular dog clippers or a nifty little read more...

Pugs are clowns at heart, known for their silly antics, but they still manage to maintain a sense of dignity. They are known as a lap dog and enjoy lounging around in the company of their human companion, and enjoy daily exercise in the form of a walk. An inside dog, they should never be left out-of-doors for any extended period of time. The Pug is of Chinese origin.
