Welcome to the virtual home of Pickwick Pugs, dedicated to the pug breed since 1990.
|
Pickwick Pugs consists of 2 people (husband and wife) and a grumble of pugs who live in our home as cherished family members. Musicians by day and champions of the pug breed by night, we have been owned by pugs for over 30 years.
We breed to the AKC Pug breed standard. Our pugs are AKC champions and grand champions in conformation and also hold titles in Rally Obedience, Tricks, Canine Good Citizenship, and more.
We go above and beyond current recommended health testing and we complete genetic screening (PDE, DM, PKDEF - UC Davis), cardiac, eye, and orthopedic (hips, patella, elbow, spine - and Blue Ridge Veterinary Imaging) clearances on all pugs used for breeding.
Our puppies are trained daily and socialized thoroughly before going to their new homes. Every puppy we breed is registered with The American Kennel Club (AKC) and microchipped with AKC Reunite.

Here are some of the pugs we have bred living active and enriched lives . . .
With titles before and after their names, Pickwick Pugs are beautiful, loving, and smart.
|
We offer a health guarantee and are available to owners for the life of the puppy.
We are responsible, ethical breeders. Our contract requires that if an owner is ever unwilling or unable to keep a pug we have bred -- at any time during its life -- the pug must be returned to us. Our contract requires that owners never surrender their pug to a shelter or rescue group and also requires all companion pugs to be spayed or neutered at the appropriate age.
|
All Pickwick Pug puppies are raised, trained, and extensively socialized using Puppy Culture protocols and positive clicker training techniques we have learned over the years through our studies with such legends as Ian Dunbar, Karen Pryor, Victoria Stillwell, Jane Lindquist, and other amazing behaviorists, vets, and trainers. Pickwick Pug puppies are very often the "star students" of their Puppy Kindergarten classes! Owners can choose from 2 levels of training.
|
In addition to our work with show pugs and breed preservation, we are also involved in rescue & foster work with Furever Home Rescue and other organizations. Many of our pugs raise money for important causes related to the pug breed through their Pugiano Act and Painting Pugcassos.
|
In fact, the puppies we breed even create a paw-painted masterpiece prior to "gotcha day", which is included in their go-home bags/basket!
|
All puppies are examined on multiple occasions by board certified veterinarians and have received all age-appropriate vaccinations and de-worming.
|
Pickwick pugs live all over, from Mexico, California, Colorado, to New York, Virginia, Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina, Ohio, Florida, Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana, Michigan, South Carolina, and a handful live in Alabama. One pug even travels all over the world with his blues artist parents. Here he is in Madrid, Spain . . .

And here he is in Switzerland . . .
Many Pickwick Pugs participate in sports such as agility, scent work, obedience, fast cat, tricks, and
have lots of titles after their names! In Spring, 2024, the #4 and #5 fastest pugs in the country in FastCat were Pickwick Pugs!

We love our Pickwick human families so much and savor every update, photo, and video. Our Private Facebook Group is such a fabulous place to catch up. We love to keep in touch. In the next photo are littermates from the Stars Fell on Alabama Litter. Lilibeth (who we kept) is on the left, and Myles (who lives with an amazing family in New York) is on the right. We met up in Tennessee and stayed in a cabin together! It was so much fun being able to compare them at 1 year of age.
Blessings to all our extended Pickwick family.. You are always in our thoughts and prayers. Please feel free to contact us whenever you need us.
