Now that you are finished gazing over all of the puppy pictures on the Internet and you are through with reading all about each and every breed known to man kind that you can think of, you have finally decided to bring a Pug puppy into your home and into your heart. All you have to do now is to find a place where you can purchase your Pug from and if you are like some people, you may feel that keeping yourself away from a Pug breeder is best when trying to find a healthy and well-behaved Pug.

But you could not be more wrong because Pugs in the pet shops also come from Pug breeders because the pet shops do not breed animals themselves, they are simply the middlemen. So when you are shopping for a Pug in a pet shop, you are still getting a puppy that came from a Pug breeder which is something that you did not like in the first place. In order to get past this and to make the right decision, there are several things that you must consider.
When you think of a Pug in a pet store you often see a puppy that is perfect and wholesome and while all puppies are innocent, not all will have the best behavior as some have suffered abuse at the hands of breeders. As sad as it may seem, not every Pug breeder out there is kind and in the business for the right reasons. And it is because of this that you want to avoid breeders but by taking away your own ability to view the puppy's surroundings, you are setting yourself up for trouble.

Pet stores receive all of their dogs from breeders and they generally do not take much time in deciding which breeder is best as the bottom line for them is generally which breeder can sell them the most at the cheapest amount so they can then make the most form you. None of the store employees, including management, will have the information you would need about the breeder and even if they did, there are bound to be privacy issues that would be enforced.
Even though it is never fun heading off to Pug breeder after Pug breeder, by doing it the best way instead of trusting a pet shop, you are able to maintain control of the situation. This means that you will be able to view the area where the puppy is being raised to make sure it has been given everything it needs. You are also going to be able to view how the puppy acts around the people who have been raising it. Within the walls of a pet store, you are not able to see any of the history behind the Pug you are looking at.

Any animal that comes from a home that was full of neglect and abuse is bound to end up with issues. This can come out later in their life as bad temperament, destruction of property, and violence like biting you or other animals. These can be extremely serious issues and that is why you should not trust a pet store to review a breeder for neglect and abuse. It is completely up to you to make sure that your pet is healthy and will be a great addition to your home.

An excellent breeder will allow you to look around and to ask questions. Make sure you avoid Pug breeders who do not allow you this. If a Pug breeder does not have a lot of Pug information to share with you, you may want to search out more Pug Breeders.
