Please go to and read the Application Process webpage first, before completing this page and submitting an application. Thank you!
Pickwick Pug puppies are reserved for applicants approved on our waiting list. We ARE currently accepting applications. To submit an application, complete the information below. We will announce any/all updates on the "Upcoming Litters" and "Litter Announcements" pages on this website. Thank you for your patience!
Let us get to know you!
If you are interested in owning a Pickwick pug the starting place is to complete the following inquiry form. We will add you to our "interest/contact" list. We can then meet virtually on Facetime (or another app) and, if it still seems like a Pickwick Pug would be a great fit for you, the next step is to be added to the "wait list", (which is different from the "interest/contact list"). To do this, prospective owners are asked to:
The last step in the process, if you would like for us to hold a place in line for a future available Pickwick pug/puppy, requires a $750 deposit which will be applied toward the total purchase price of the puppy or pug when one becomes available. Most Pickwick Pug owners are serious about only getting a Pickwick pug, because of the vast training and socialization we complete, the Puppy Culture protocols we use, and also because of the quality of our pugs, so they are willing to wait 12-18 months and possibly longer, (though sometimes it is much less of a wait time.)
Please complete the following questions as thoroughly as possible and email to us at [email protected]. (Sorry, the interactive Weebly website submission form has not been working properly lately, so the safest route is simply to email the following information). Please add: "Pug Application" to the email heading so we don't miss your email in the sea of spam!
