Delivery

We require not only virtual meetings with prospective owners, but also at least one in-person meeting on "gotcha day". We do not ship.

There are a few options for getting your pug/puppy:
  1. Owners can travel to Alabama (there is an international airport in Birmingham) (if flying with your pug or puppy, a health certificate and additional vet visit will be required, typically an additional cost of $200)
  2. We can deliver personally. Depending upon our work schedules and dates, we can deliver the puppy to you for additional costs. If flying, the added Health Certificate ($200) and additional vaccinations ($90), air fare tba, pet 'ticket' (typically $125), 1-2 nights hotel, and $250 travel expense budget. If a car rental is needed then this would entail an additional expense but, typically, we meet up at your airport, We have also driven to meet people partway which requires a car rental fee (which is cheaper than mileage reimbursement) and small travel expense budget dependent upon distance (possible hotel expense if traveling far).  We try to travel as inexpensively as possible -- i.e. Motel 6, coach, economy -- but some airlines require an upgrade (i.e. Southwest, although their policies are changing) if traveling with a pet. The only disadvantage to this step (aside from our own health lol) is that owners won't be able to meet the parents, aunts, grandparents, siblings etc. but hopefully, there are enough photos and videos and posts on our website for you to have gotten an idea what they're like! TMI ;) I know, but we love our grumble so much.
  3. We DO NOT use pet nannies. We MUST deliver the pug or puppy to you personally. No exceptions.

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!!"
