Hi, Samantha! I bought two puggles from you almost two years ago...I believe they are both in the picture on
your home page of one of your past litters. You shipped Bitzi and Murphy to Denver, Colorado. They are
both doing absolutely wonderful. They have some of the best personalities I have ever seen. In
fact, anyone who knows Bitzi at all would not argue that she thinks she is more human than most of us. We have
a large dog park at our complex and they have so many friends to play with during their daily play time.
They are great with other dogs and humans as well. They love nothing more than an hour at the dog park then
home for a nap. Bitz and Murph are some of the most loyal dogs you will ever meet and are both very protective
of the third dog, Bella, who is much tinier than them. I was skimming your website and saw the letters you
had posted and thought I would send an update of my wonderful puggles. Thank you for a couple of great dogs!
Sincerely,
Jaime
hi samantha,
we just received your email regarding the toy puggles and I do have to say that they are precious. We adopted Barney
may 21, 2005. since then he has enriched our lives beyond our expectations. he loves kisses and hugs and is so sweet. he always
wants to be by me or my husband, 24/7. he gets very sad when we have to leave him to go to work so during the day he goes
to doggie day care where he gets a full day of seeing his friends and play time. our vet told us that barney does not
consider himself a pet but rather a human and the three of us are a pack. thus he is always with us and never wants to be
alone in a room by himself. he is so sweet and loving that we just dont know how we could ever own another breed again. we
are considering a baby sibling for barney and will stay in touch with you regarding a future puggle. thanks again for breeding
such a wonderful dog. we love him like our son, anna and ken larue

Hi Samantha,
Yes, we made it home just in time. We were out of power for about 4 days, that was fun.
Zoey is doing great, Had her vet appt. and checked out just fine.We saw another puggle at Petland yesterday. She
was 9 weeks old and you could see almost every bone sticking out. Very sad. I am so glad you like them plump. We do too.
Thanks again for everything,
Dee
Samantha - Hi, we made it home safely with Tucker and the kids around 2:30am, it was a long trip but Tucker did
AWESOME! He would get out and use the bathroom every time we stopped, not one accident in the crate, we were shocked!
He has been having a lot of fun here this morning, sleeping on a cozy blanket this morning with Connor and Cameron,
I took a photo and will email it to you soon. Thanks for giving us such a wonderful puppy - he is so loved by
all of us already! He makes a perfect addition to our family! I'll continue to pray for your Mom. Love, Kelsey

Hello Samantha
I wanted to let you know our little one arrived safe and sound. She is absolutely the cutest thing I have ever seen.
We are fighting over who gets to hold her next.
She was a little nervous at first off the flight, but she warmed up quickly and seems so happy.
Thank you so much for your time and patience with us and being so kind and professional.I know it takes alot of time
and care for you to produce this quality of beautiful, healthy pup.
When we get ready for a big brother in the future, we will be emailing again but for now we will give her the love and
attention she has been used to.
We will email new pictures as she grows.
Again we sincerely appreciate all of your work and help.
Sandra and family
Hi Samantha! It's great to hear from you, I was just thinking of sending you some pictures of Nibbler. She is
doing very well, she is perfect and I think she gets cuter and cuter every day! She loves to follow us around the
house or snuggle in our laps, but she also LOVES to go running in the park. Everyone who meets her wants a puggle,
and I refer them to you. Right now she is 13.5 lbs and she just lost her last baby tooth. I am attaching some recent
pictures of her. I'll send more as she gets older too so you can show people what puggles look like as adults. How
are things going with your Spring puggle litters? I hope everything is going well. -Laura
Hi, no problem! As soon as we get home I'll email you and let you know that she arrived safely! I have food, toys, puppy
pads, collar and leash, is there anything else you can think of that we might need?
I just wanted to say thank you again. I've always wanted to give my girls a Christmas memory like this and you've helped
me do it. I really appreciate the time and care that this took. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas, like you've helped
us have!!
Thanks,
Amber
Hello Samantha
Just wanted to say "Hi" and let you know Shiloh is doing great.
He is such a character, so loving and funny. He does the cutest things. I think he was probably the
cutest and smartest puggle you have ever had, but you probably hear that from everyone.
He is doing really well with his training, going to puppy kindergarten and getting more spoiled each
day.
I referred some friends to your site, hope you don't mind.
I will email pictures soon, can't wait for you to see him, he is growing so fast.Thanks again for
providing us with such a great addition to our family. Take care, pics coming soon, Lisa
Hi, Samantha. It is 4 pm here and we got home about 20 minutes ago. I stopped three times on the way home
- she wanted to play, but not go potty. She did real well until about thirty minutes before we got home. Then,
she had it! Get me out of here.
When we got home, she peed and pooped. Nice poop.
My house is kind of big, and really all she wants me to do is hold her - which is fine with me.
She ate some of her food at the airport, and has drank quite a bit of water, I am giving her bottled water. I am
going to wait awhile before I feed her.
Thank you so much. You run a first class operation. She is more than I expected.
Love, Patt
hi Samantha,
Just wanted to let you know that we got home safe on Saturday night and
everyone loves her. She did so great and is continuing to do so. So you know how you said that she doesn't like
the cold, well I don't know but she sure seems to enjoy being outside and she loves digging in the snow piles. We are
loving how Bailey snuggles up to our other dog. I took some pictures over the weekend of the dogs and our girls, I will
send them to you. Thanks for everything.
Mandy and family
Hello
We purchased a pug from you in 02 and we wanted to let you know how
pleased we are with her, she is a beautiful healthy dog with a wonderful temperment,
so perfect in every way. She loves all people and other animals
and we are hoping to purchase a sibling for her from your establishment.
We wanted to say thank you so much for your kindness, professionalism
and your excellent website and information. You came highly recommended
to our family and we certainly have no regrets. Please let us know when
we you will be expected another beautiful pug litter.
Again, we sincerely thank you and look forward to your reply.
Kay Sipes and family
Hey guys,
When we were looking for puggles, we found very few places with pictures of the dogs when they were growing
up or full grown. We took some recent pictures of Cooper and thought you guys might like to know how he is doing.
He has been great and is learning very fast. He is now almost 4 months old, and we can't take him anywhere without a
ton of attention. He is pretty much housebroken and knows "sit," "lay," "fetch," and is learning "stay." We tell
each other all the time, he is the best thing we have ever done.
Everyone asks about where he came from, so we had some business cards printed up. We have referred several
people to you, but you never know if they actually pursue it or not.
Thanks again,
Mat and Mandy
Hi Samantha,
I’m sure the guy from Newington, CT will love his little Puggles as much as we
love our Reo. Funny you should ask about their temperament. Their temperament is wonderful. Reo is loyal,
fun-loving, enthusiastic and very playful. Best of all is his very funny and devoted personality. I will go to
bed at night and find a dog biscuit hidden under my pillow. He has a lot of energy-as most puppies do- and loves to
run in our yard. We have him on an electric fence and he couldn’t be happier. His personality is very “hound-like”.
I do believe Reo has more Beagle in him than Pug. Reo would never do anyting to intentionally hurt anyone. You could
put your hand in his mouth…even if there was a steak in there and he would give it to you to make you happy. What a
guy! Everything I read online about Puggles says that they are lap dogs. Well, I do think they meant running “lap”
dogs. Reo’s best days are the ones where he can run free and then come in and curl up for a nice nap. He
is a very curious little guy. He does think that just about everything is a toy for him, but he is learning. He
is a very very smart dog and I’m not just saying that because he is mine. Reo is a joy to our family. He
does have some things to work on but, he is still only a pup. I do believe that once Reo learns all that is excpected
of him he will be the best dog we ever had and I’ve had a dog all my life. Puggles are not boring couch potatoes….they
are a terrific addition to a family, especially one with kids!
Love,
Karen and Reo
Hello !
So nice to hear from you, I had been planning on emailing you since our little puggle girls birthday
is coming up. Yes, Lilli is still a beautiful sweet girl. I would highly recommend puggles to any family with children.
She has such a loving, cuddly disposition, even at almost a year of age. My daughter and Lilli have a wonderful loving bond
between them. Don't get me wrong, she still loves to go outside for playtime but when its over she adores cuddling in your
lap. She is so friendly to everyone she meets and they all know her at petco and our vet. Lilli is quite the popular girl.
Again, so nice to hear from you and thank you for giving us such a beautiful girl. Take care, Cynthia and family
He has arrived safely ! What a beautiful, plump, healthy, pug. We could not have picked
one out any better than if we could have done so in person. We were so hesitant about purchasing online and so far from home,
but is was so worth it. Thank you very much for this handsome guy, we adore him already. Kim in CA
Hello
Samantha,
Just
thought we'd drop you an email to say hello and attach some pics of Parker. Today is Parker's 5 month birthday.
He is just as amazing as the day we got him, only he's 19.5 lbs now. He has brought us so much joy, we can't thank you
enough. He is doing so well here in Hoboken. Yes he is a city dog, but he visits the suburbs at least once a week
(such a lucky guy). He loves the grass and the outdoors. He was out hiking with us last weekend and he was in
Heaven. We enrolled him in Puppy Training classes and he goes every Monday with us. He is learning so much
(we are too!). Parker is just non-stop excitement and fun. He is the talk of the town, literally complete strangers
walk up and ask us if he is Parker because they've heard about him. He is well known as one of the cutest dogs
around. He enjoys sitting outside our apartment on the sidewalk watching people walk by and saying hello to the
other dogs. People tell there friends about him, it's really just wild. We have given your info to quite a
few people in hopes that a few more of your Puggles make it to Hoboken, NJ. He currently has two Puggle friends in the
park that Alli takes him to play with as well as countless other dogs. Parker has such a great personality, he just
plays in the park all day with the other dogs. It's quite amusing because anywhere we are in town he know's where the
nearest park is (we have 3 within 4 blocks of us) and tries to get us to take him there no matter what. He is just about
over the teething stage, not too bad. He's lost most of his puppy teeth, the Vet says his canines are really the only one's
left to go. He was completely housetrained by the beginning of July. He really is just a very smart puppy and
we are so amazed at his progress.
We
have attached a few pics for you, a few are very recent and a couple are from June.
Thanks
again for all that you did, we appreciate it so much and we hope you are enjoying the latest litter of little Puggles.
Kenny,
Alli and Parker!
Thanks
so much Samantha….you are the best!!! It was just fate that I called you that Sunday morning and ended up with
the doggy love of my life….Talk to you soon. Karen
PS
Feel free to use me as a reference anytime….please use my email address
Samantha,
Sorry it took so long my computer has been down. Just got back up and running. Here is some pictures of Max. Had him to
the vets this past Wed. He weighed 4lbs. 13 ozs. He was suppose to get another deworming and vac bit they were way backed
up so had to reschedule for this coming Wed. max is doing well, he has adjusted very well. Loveable and loves to give kisses.
Still has some accidents but he is getting better. He is a pleasure to be around. Yesterday he took 3 naps on my lap looked
like he was in heaven.
Well I hope all is well with you. Take care.
Barbie & Max
Samantha
What can I say, WHAT A PUG !!! He was so worth the wait. Thank you so very much for making our kids
so very happy, he was a little nervous at first coming off of the plane, but it didn't take him long to put a pug smile on
his face. I will send pictures soon. Take care, Jill
Hi Samantha,
Just wanted to send you a quick note telling you how thankful we are for our little Gino!
He is not only physically adorable, however he is just a little charmer. He is definitely stubborn, and he doesn't like
to be left alone quite yet but he is just such a little ham. He is so friendly with other people as well (which was very
important to Tucker and I.)
Unfortunately, we have spoiled him to death. Whoops!
I have a dog walker 3 days a week, and my mother watches him the other 2 days. Eventually, I am going to enroll him in doggie
day care one day a week just so he can socialize with other pups!
I have attached some recent pictures of him. He is 11 pounds
already! I would love to see pictures of his parents if you have any (especially his mother.)
I hope all is well and again, thank you! We receive
so many comments and praises. I have told several people about you.
If you look on puggle.org at the other puggle pix, Gino
is a top contender. You breed beautiful pups!
Again, if you have any parent pictures, I would love to
see them!
Take Care! Jill
Hi,
I had to let you know about Chloe's morning. I go to Curves and ever since Chloe arrived the ladies have been begging
me to bring her in. So, today I did. :)
After all the loves and hugs she got when we first arrived she wasn't content to wait the 1/2 hour in her crate - go
figure. I ended up taking her around the exercise circuit with me and she had a ball. She would doze during the
30 seconds on the recovery pad and she would watch with interest when I was on a machine.
After going around the circuit the required three times I put her in the crate so I could stretch. I moved her
to where she could watch me and she just curled up in a ball and went to sleep. Guess all that exercise wore her out! She
was a huge hit at Curves - it was too cute.
I hope all is going well with the family. I'm sure you miss the puppies but I can tell you that Chloe is thriving.
She loves everyone and makes sure that you are properly greeted when morning arrives or we get home from being out.
She is one happy puppy and we are head over heels in love with her! Thank you again for everything.
Blessings, Nadine
Samantha,
Just wanted to send you an updated picture (attached) of the 2 little guys you raised for us from day one - Max &
Murray. They're getting cuter and sweeter everyday, absolutely LOVE people and other dogs, and are quite the cuddle
bugs! Murray (the littlest guy) is getting bigger everyday trying to catch up with his brother Max - he's grown from
2.7 lbs when we got him, to 4.1 lbs already! Thanks again for giving us the 2 little guys who bring us so much love....(and
hours of hilarious entertainment)!
Sincerely,
Traci Seaton & Mike Thorstenson
Samantha, Hello there! I just thought that I'd send a quick note off to tell you how the puppy's doing
:) I named him Copernicus but we all call him Copper for short. He's living with my grandma right now while
I'm at school but he's doing wonderfully. Right now he's taking puppy classes every Saturday at Petco.
I was only able to go to one class with him before I left for school but he was excellent. Much better behaved
than the other puppies. And everyone we met while we were there had to stop and tell us how cute he was.
Everyone wants to know what kind of dog he is and where I got him...so you're getting a lot of free advertisement!
:) I guess that's about it, I just wanted to thank you for my wonderful little boy!
~Kirsten
Hello Snuggle Puggle,
I just wanted to email and let you know I saw 2 of your pugs
at a park here in NY and they were absolutely the two cutest
pugs I have ever seen. They were not only cute but also so smart.
Their Mommy told me she had adopted them from you and I just
had to write and let you know that they were the best and hopefully
in the future I can adopt a pug from your family as well.
Have a great day ! Kimberly in NY
Hi Samantha! I have finally gotten to a point where I can log on. OK - admittedly, my world was turned upside down for
the first couple of days, but all is well now. Sadie is SOOOOOOOO adorable and a very, very, good puppy! When she FINALLY
arrived at the airport, the lady her brought her over to the cargo pickup area, was in love with her. She said she'd been
"protecting" her ever since she arrived. Said they had her out on the Tarmac, and she insisted she be brought in and kept
out of the rain/wind. When we took Sadie out of her crate, just mostly wet from the water...and maybe a little spit up, we
all just loved her. I let the lady who took care of her hold her too since she was soooo protective of her. The two guys in
the cargo place melted too. THAT was funny to see. Amazing how a puppy can make everyone gush. She snuggled as close as she
could into my neck and shoulder and I held her tight letting her know she was OK, loved and all was going to be fine. That
day we had much closeness, snuggle time and just quiet time. It was perfect.
We went to her vet yesterday, Dr. Hammer
of the Preston Animal Hospital. They are absolutely wonderful, and you would be pleased that she goes there, as well as when
needed to be boarded when I'm away. They actually called me Friday night to make sure she had arrived OK from TN and to confirm her name is still Sadie, and that they'd see us on 12/26.
Her visit was good and SHE was a perfect little girl. She weighs 5.2 lbs. now. Got her nails clipped and all other things
necessary to be done. Dr. Hammer said she's a good little pup and in great health. :-) He gave her a tid-bit of a bacon strip
made by Purina as a little doggie junk food treat for being so good. She loved it.
Sadie is just amazing in what she
has learned in such a short time. She LOVES all of her beds (crates) - one downstairs that's better for daytime, and one up
by my bed that strictly for bedtime. She sleeps ALL THE WAY through the night! I'm amazed! She has been eating very well and
therefore no need for the Nutri-Cal. I did use some of the chicken flavored baby food to mix in the first few times to ensure
she'd eat....and she has every day. Now we have switched to just using chicken broth vs. warm water to add flavor and give
her some "gravy" and omit some cals. She is eating it all. :-) Drinking her water too, but I've noticed she is "persnickety"
about the size & kind of water bowl. Seems to get intimidated by all but a small glass one I have. Oh well, she'll learn....
but she's doing great.
Believe it or not, she has a collar and a leash and for the past day I have had to use them
when I take her out to pee/pooh. She gets a wild hair and wants to run like the wind and I can't keep up with her! It happened
one night and thank God I had a flashlight. She's black and with the dark of the night, it was hard to see her. She got one
of those wild hairs and took off. Scared me to death. Funny though, I did a face plant in the flower bed when trying to catch
her. I had to laugh.
She has a ton of toys - some that are fun for play, some for real good chewing (cuz she is a chewer)....and
others that are squeaky and good to mouth. She plays very well. As you said, LOVES to cuddle and asks to be when really needed.
Good napper too. She's learned the "no bite" mostly, and how to chew a toy instead of a finger when helped.
She had
a HUGE Christmas Day, but you know, it was the BEST thing for her AND for me! We were over at my sisters. I took her bed crate
from my bedroom so she'd have a familiar place to sleep/hide when needed, cuz I knew it would be a bit much for her. She only
peed on their rugs 3 times. It was a horrible rainy day, so she did well to pee/pooh outside. She played with her "cousin"
....white Lab (Ramsey) and all the rest of us while we did Christmas stuff and did very well. She took good long naps in her
crate for being worn out as well as giving her and others a break. We moved on to my nephews and again, the crate went with
us. There she met her other "cousins" (by the way - all are in GREAT standing with their vets, so I was not worried at all
about her exposure to them or vice versa.)... one of whom is a Yorkshire Terrier (named - Coco). It was a hoot. They were
like siblings - being eyeball to eyeball and played, and played, and played. Testing one another, etc. I have to laugh, but
did feel for Coco - as Sadie got a hold of her hair and pulled it hard enough that it made her pee. :( However, Coco made
Sadie yap a little too .... so they both learned "territory" and "nice play". She, Sadie was great though. Took a few naps
in her crate and we both slept like logs that night. We had a quiet day the next day, except for the vet. Today, like yesterday,
we will have a fairly quiet day. I will step out for about 30 min. - 45min. like yesterday - exposing her to my not always
being there in prep to go back to work the 2nd week of January.....and for me to work from home here that first week so I'm
not in the same room with her.
In a nut shell, after all that!, she's doing beautifully, and it's soooooo obvious she
came from a great home to begin with. Thank you Samantha. I know she sends her love to you all. As soon as I figure out how
to upload/download the pics I've taken, I'll send them to you so you can see how happy she is. Life will be just wonderful
with her - thanks to her great start from you guys.
Hope you had a wonderful Christmas and that the new year will be
good for us all.
Fondly,
- Melissa
Hello Samantha,
My Name is Eddie Naclerio
from New York. My mother Marie ordered a puggle
from you. We got him! He landed safely and on time. He had a little mess in the cage but that's ok. We got him home and he
explored the house, gave him a bath, dried him with the blow dryer. He is a little cold up here, when we picked him up it
was 10 degrees out. The temperature has risen since Friday night and for the upcoming week they are forecasting temperatures
in the 50's. He seems comfortable with that temperature. I wanted to thank you for raising such an amazing animal. He is so
well behaved,it's amazing. He listens to my commands, seems to understand what I am saying and is just amazing. I am feeding
him as you recommended. He is eating well and is going to the bathroom on pee pads and when it isn't too cold out, in the
lawn. Friday night when we got him I let him sleep in my bed to get a little more relaxed and get to know my scent. Saturday
night I put him in his new cage. He cried for a little bit but that is expected, after he slept through the whole night.
I introduced him to my family, the age range is 7 to 71. He got along with each and everyone one of them. He played when they
wanted to play and calmed down when they wanted to calm down. My neighbor has 2 small dogs in a fenced in yard and he is afraid
of them right now, but we will take everything one thing at a time. I really have no complaints with him and I Thank you for
raising him so well and taking such good care of him. I will continue to do the same. On Monday December 11 he has a 9:30
AM vet appointment. I have taken so many pictures already and as soon as I get them on the computer I will send you some.
Thank you again and I will talk with you soon. Take care....
Eddie
