How adopting a pug puppy works
From the first message to the day your puppy travels home: how reservations open, what a deposit holds, the updates you will get while you wait, and exactly what comes home with your pug.
Reservations
We begin accepting reservations for our pug puppies when they are approximately two to three weeks old. Reservation openings are announced through this website.
All adoption enquiries should be made by private message, so we can give you individual information about the puppies available and answer your questions properly.
Reservations are handled on a first-come, first-served basis, in the order enquiries reach us. A puppy is officially reserved once a deposit of 50% of the total adoption price has been received, and the remaining balance is due before delivery.
Once your deposit has been received, your pug puppy moves from Available Puppies to Reserved on this website.

Regular puppy updates
Once your reservation is confirmed, you will receive photos and videos every two to three weeks. You get to follow your puppy’s growth, development, personality and progress right up until they are ready to join your family, so the first meeting is never the first time you have seen them awake and busy.
Pickup and delivery
Our pug puppies are ready to leave our care at approximately eight to thirteen weeks of age, depending on their individual development and our vet’s recommendations.
Before going to their new homes, every puppy receives
- Age-appropriate vaccinations
- A complete veterinary health examination
- Regular deworming
- Microchipping, where applicable
For families who need delivery, we work with a trusted professional pet transportation service whose partners specialise in the safe and reliable relocation of pets. Delivery may be available throughout the United States, and international transport is considered case by case.
We stay in communication throughout the journey and pass on updates whenever they are available, so you have peace of mind while your puppy is travelling to you.
When you adopt from us, you receive
- A healthy and well-socialised pug puppy
- Age-appropriate vaccinations
- Deworming appropriate for the puppy's age
- Microchip, where applicable
- Veterinary health records
- A signed adoption and sales contract

Registration and breeding rights
Registration and pedigree documentation depend on the puppy’s registration status and on the terms of your individual adoption agreement. For puppies sold as pet-only, registration or pedigree documents may be provided after proof of spay or neuter, where that applies and the contract requires it.
If you are interested in a pug for responsible breeding, please tell us before you place your reservation, so we can discuss that puppy’s eligibility, registration, documentation and breeding terms with you.
Breeding rights policy
Breeding rights must be agreed and paid for before any breeding takes place. A puppy bought under a pet-only agreement may not be used for breeding without prior written approval and the purchase of the applicable breeding rights.
Unauthorised breeding in violation of the signed agreement may constitute a breach of contract, and may result in the penalties set out in the adoption agreement.
If you are planning to breed, let us know before reserving your pug, so the right registration and documentation are prepared from the beginning.
Breeding rights fee
$500 plus applicable taxes, agreed and paid before breeding.
Pet-only agreements
No breeding without prior written approval and the purchase of breeding rights.
