Mr. Drysdale

CH Pickwick's Mr. High Falutin'
AKC #:​ TS58246803   DOB: 12-4-22
Pedigree
Show Wins
Health Tests

Mr. Drysdale now lives in Nashville, TN with a wonderful family. He lived with us for his first 2 years of life and finished his AKC championship and was such a blessing to us. He is full of so much personality and one of the sweetest pugs you've ever met. Mr. Drysdale was our pick out of the Southern Belle Litter and he started his show career winning Best of Breed multiple times and the Toy Group in BPUP then went onto beat out amazing pugs in huge lineups in Greenville and other shows earning his championship. He's a lover first, not a showman, so his wins are based solely on his amazing structure and conformation. From his first big outing to a Mardi Gras Parade (his first outing in his top hat), to his first puppy match at 3 months of age in Tallahassee, to his first official show in Greenville, SC, where he won Winners Dog and Best of Winners and got both of his majors out of the way at 6 months of age .... Mr. Drysdale is a hit with everyone who meets him. Here he is the morning before he left for Nashville. We are going to miss him so much and he is leaving a hole in our heart, but he is going to get so much love! We decided not to use him in our breeding program so now he is onto new fun adventures and his 2nd chapter of his life as a Reindeer!

Mr Drysdale got both his majors out of the way at his very first show cluster at 6 months of age! He had awesome adventures with trips to parks and waterfalls and mountain vistas, too!
Here is Mr. Drysdale finishing his championship in Columbiana, Alabama with those final single points.

It is a rare occasion when both Jeff and Amy can attend a dog show together. What fun it was to be able to share a win photo with both parents, Mr. Drysdale Winners Dog, AND Eliza, Winners Bitch. (But it did make the win photo a bit challenging. We'll take it no matter what since this is what memories are made of!)

Mr. Drysdale had fans from the very beginning. Here he is winning Best of Breed AND the Toy Group in BPUP:

Mr Drysdale's take on the TikTok "Ashley look at me"
Mr. Drysdale had fun playing with his cousin Winston (Pickwick's Captain of Nampara from the Poldark Litter) at the hotel dog park in Greenville, SC. Some days Drysdale won WD or Reserve, and others Winston!

Show Wins

Mr. Drysdale received BOTH his majors at his first official show cluster in Greenville, SC! Thank you Judges Richard Powell, Pamela Bruce, and John P Wade. We had a very busy Fall season with our regular jobs as teachers/musicians so he didn't have another outing until October with the Pug Nationals.

Loss of thousands of dollars with this fiasco:
Mr. Drysdale was chosen on 4/4/24 as Winners Dog and Best of Winners,  and Best of Breed Owner-Handled, Tuscaloosa Kennel Club (Bred-by-Exhibitor Dog Adult) yet AKC once again took away his points stating he was in the wrong class ) so his 3 point major was taken away. Judge Robert J Shreve. Now there is no record at all of him having entered this show on the AKC website. Here is a screenshot from the superintendent site immediately following the show proving his wins (helpful for the IRS to know he was even present, sigh):

Judge Mary Jane Carberry. Now there is no record at all on the AKC website of Drysdale having won, in particular having won the Best Bred By. Here is a screenshot proving his wins:

What Our Clients Are Saying

Bumi was star student at his puppy class today and has been pretty much bomb-proof in the world so far. You definitely set him up for success!"

"You do such a good job training/preparing them. Rosalina is the best trained dog in this house...everyone at work is always blown away how incredible she is ... Socialization, confidence, obedience ... And, well, she’s really pretty." (Vet Tech, mom, loving pug owner)

"The vet was impressed that his nostrils were completely open."

"So many people at the festival were asking where did you get such a beautiful pug from and we said from an amazing breeder in Alabama, Pickwick Pugs"


"He [Louie, out of the Beatrix Potter litter] is by far the most athletic & strongest of any other pugs we’ve had. He’s 18.5 lbs of muscle! I’m sure there are genetics involved, but we also followed your advice with the diet, fish oil, supplements etc. If we had the time, I bet he’d be a champion at agility. We love everything about him!!"
