pickwick's latest champion!

Pending AKC verification, we have a new champion at Pickwick Pugs!

Our beautiful, amazing, incredibly sweet and balanced Tory (Pickwick's Worship the Ground I Walk On) out of the Coffeehouse Litter deserves this championship not just based upon conformation, but she also has one of the best, if not the best temperaments of any pug we have owned or bred.

She also has a very special pedigree with Uncle "Biggie" who won more best in shows than any pug in history, grandfather Reese and great grandfather Noble ... all top pugs in the country. 

Tory was our pick of the litter from the Coffeehouse Litter. ​

Her beautiful mother and one of our Rally Obedience and Tricks rock stars, Marie Claire (Pickwick's Cotton Candy in the Sky, RI) sadly is no longer with us, so we are so grateful to have kept a puppy from Marie's one and only litter. ​
