Pugs For Sale
The cost of adopting a full-breed pug puppy is on the rise. In California, it costs nearly $700 to obtain a one-year-old pup. And that does not include other costs such as licenses, immunizations, heartworm testing, inoculations, and more. Add to this the cost of the puppy itself and you are looking at a lot of money.
Why are full-breed pugs so expensive? The short answer is they are very rare dogs. They have developed over 100 years ago in China. A breeder from that era only ever had a few puppies in his litter. His breeding efforts have led to the current condition we have today. However, he has managed to raise many quality pups.
If you are serious about getting a puppy and can afford the cost, go to a breeder.
Most breeders are like grandparents. They want to see their animals keep growing, thrive, and succeed. That usually means they are willing to spend a lot of time with the puppies they sell.
Ask your local breeder if he or she knows where the full breeders hang out and get their puppies from. You may even be able to get some insight into finding the right puppy from them. Sometimes the breeder will take the time to meet prospective buyers and discuss the qualities they are looking for. That is a big plus.
If you can’t locate a good breeder but still plan to buy one of the puppies, don’t despair.
There are plenty of options available. One option is to go through a classified ad service. Craigslist is great for this. Just be sure to check it regularly to make sure there aren’t any listings for the dog you want.
Another option is to go through an online website that specializes in finding full-breed puppies. Often you can contact the breeder directly on the website and not have to pay for the shipping unless you buy an X-ray. Sometimes you can pay a minimal fee and receive a certificate of authenticity with your full breed puppy. It is also possible to find reputable full breeders through breed rescue groups. A search on your keywords will often bring up the websites of these organizations.
Finally, there is always the option of going through a private breeder.
These breeders often won’t tell you much about the breeding process or other important information about the breed so you must ask all of the questions yourself. This is not an easy task. A reputable breeder will provide a lot of information and be willing to discuss the finer points. A good breeder will be anxious to sell the puppy because he or she knows it is the right thing for the new family.

It is also a good idea to visit the breeder’s premises in person before purchasing the puppies.
