How do I......?
Welcome to Simplicity Pug's Honest Answers Section!
Let me tell you the story about this picture!  I was sick with 'what's going around' for 3 days and wiped out on the couch.  I didn't feel like supervising the activities of my busy pugs, but I missed cuddling with them.  So I had my kids bring my old recliner into the dining room - a completely dog friendly area in our house.  Of course I planned to hold one or two at a time, but they had a different idea.  The digital camera came out and.......
Even in my new house I have a totally dog friendly end of the house!!

How do I know you are a responsible breeder?
Do you really have your dogs in the house?  Most breeders say that but they really live in a kennel?
I truly raise all my puppies in the house - no kennel for us!!
How long have you been breeding pugs?
I have been breeding pugs since 1997!  I show year round now although I didn't start out showing.
I must admit that I actually prefer my puppies go to pet homes to live a cuddled, spoiled life!.  I love to hear from each family for years to come about how wonderful their baby is.  Show homes can be great too! 
Do you sell puppies as pets or only to show homes?
Probably not!  I sell all pet puppies with AKC limited registration.  That means that they can be registered but their offspring can NOT, therefore discouraging careless breeding.  
If I buy a puppy from you can I start breeding too?
Can you ship the puppy to me?
No!  Sorry, but I don't like my puppies to fly in cargo on airplanes.  I will gladly meet you to take your baby home as your carry-on luggage!
I live in Longview, Washington about 1 hour from Portland, Oregon;  2-3 hours from Seattle, WA. 
Where in the world are you located?
By all means - I encourage people to come for a PUG PARTY to meet my dogs and I at any time!  Later when I have a puppy available you'll know if you are interested as will I.
Can I come for a visit?
Definitely!  My written contracts are flexible and made to satisfy me as the breeder, and you as the buyer.  A sample general contract will be emailed to you upon request.
Do you give me a written contract?
I currently sell PET puppies or young adults for $1000.  All pet puppies are sold with limited AKC registration on a spay contract.
How much do your pet puppies cost?
It is not necessarily lesser quality, but could be: 
A pedigree I don't want to share with other breeders.
A personality I don't think would tolerate showing.
Conformationally correct but growing too big or staying too small at the time I make my decision, etc.
How do you determine PET quality?
Can I buy a puppy from you just because I want one?
No - I like to get to know you so well that we are on a first name basis by the time you get your puppy - so let's email!!!
I never breed my girls more often than once a year, so depending on the circumstances I may have puppies only a couple times a year.
How often do you have puppies available?
Show Prospect puppies are priced on an individual basis!  Approximately $1500-2000 for puppies with minimal strings attached!
How much do show prospect puppies cost?
I 'Pre-Potty Train' all my pups by encouraging their natural instinct for cleanliness.  They don't like to be near their own potty, so by giving them separate bed and potty areas from the start, they learn to potty away from themselves, which can be transitioned to your situation.
Is the puppy potty trained when I get it?
