Hi Geeks, from all boards. I am in need of puppy advice.
(Short version) We are looking for a pup, to join our family. I have always loved the pug breed and so that is what we are looking for.
I have always had rescue dogs of all ages and breeds throughout my life, but I have a young son (16 months) and am finding it impossible to find a dog that has enough background information that the rescue centre feels comfortable rehoming with a young child. So hence, why we are looking at the pup/pedigree route.
I have studied, asked, annoyed various people regarding the breed and I know the breed would fit in well with our lifestyle. But if anybody had any suggestions or advice regarding what I should be looking for that would be a great help, as I don't know what I'm looking for!
I do not under any circumstances want to benefit puppy 'greeders', nor puppy farms or mills.
Again, advice would be very welcoming!! Thanks
