Where Did We Get Our Puggles?

This is the number one question we get asked by our readers so I decided to write a post about it and make it public knowledge. We started by looking for breeders in North Carolina (our home state) in May of 2006 via newspapers, internet, references from friends, etc. We didn’t find many at that time, partially because the puggle was such a new breed then, but we finally came across the website of a breeder located in Roaring River, NC. Roaring River is located in Northwest North Carolina a little more than an hour North of Charlotte and about an hour west of Winston-Salem.

Another Puggle’s (1st) Birthday!

We gave her a little extra kibble for breakfast that morning as a special treat so that she wouldn’t hound us for scraps all day while we prepared Thanksgiving dinner (pun intended). Then we all gathered for family pictures, and as you can tell from the picture on the left, Gracie was thrilled to wear her birthday hat.

Then after she and her Dad (me) watched a little football, and after the guests arrived, it was time for the cake ceremony.

Just a Quick Update

We haven’t made a post in a while so we just wanted to let everyone know that the puggles are doing well and that we’re going to be adding a new feature to our site.

To the left is a recent picture of Duke (right) and Gracie (left) cuddling together on our couch. They get along great and if they’re not out in the yard wrestling around, or begging us for food, they can often be found in a position similar to this. It’s kind of sick isn’t it? They even kiss sometimes (lick each other’s tongues). We often have to remind them that under our ownership they are “brother and sister” as opposed to “boyfriend and girlfriend”.

Now to the new feature. If you look in the right hand column of the site you will see that there is now a section called “Recommended Products”. Now that we have a lot of experience buying all types of toys, treats, and accessories we decided to share some of the items that have been the biggest hits with us (and our puggles). So far we only have one item in the list but it’s one of the most critical items when raising a puppy; a crate. So feel free to check it out and make sure you check back for future reviews and recommendations.
