Any fellow Puggle Owners!?

A puggle is a baby echidna and ownership is illegal.

Pugs crossed with beagles are bred by puppy farmers and sold to gullible purchasers. It is an horrendous mixture.
 
Whilst I agree with all the comments about designer breeds (pretty sure my views on them are well known on here;)), lets remember that this is someones much loved pet, presumably the OP didn't breed their puggle so lets give them a break eh.

OP, I hope you didn't get the wrong end of the stick with my question. I was genuinely interested!

A lot of cross breeds are bred for good purpose! My own dogs breed (German Shorthaired Pointer) was only established in the 1940s so hardly an old "pure" breed!
 
That wasn't aimed at you galaxy23, but the others that tell me it's illegal to own one and that surely it's not a deliberate breeding!!!!

Dobiegir - I would love to
Post pics but I have a feeling people will be quick to comment an be horrible!!!

I think most people on this forum (me Included) are against byb people who breed to make a quick buck without health testing. We have nothing against people who buy them or if its an accidental breeding. There are quite a few people on this forum who are involved in rescue and they are the people picking up the pieces when things go wrong. If you are a designer breeder expect to get a rough ride but If this is not the case you are very welcome from me.

I would genuinely love to see pics of your dog and no one will make a horrible comment about him or her, we are all dog lovers on this forum with pedigree and cross breeds of our own.
 
I am not a breeder but we did purchase him from a breeder. We read up about the breed for years before we decided to buy one.
He is the most loveable, intelligent, loyal dog I have ever come across. And most of all he is fantastic with my 8 month old son.
 
It is illegal to own a puggle which is not a dog but the juvenile of an endangered marsupial.
You didn't find that out in all the research?
People who purchase designer breeds are as guilty as those who breed them of perpetuating irresponsible breeding.
These are bred for the puppy petshop, sell it while it is cute, trade but soon grow into the sort of dog that gets overlooked in rescue kennels.
If you have a oops one call it what it is -a cross breed. If you went out and bought one shame on you and I hope you have learned from you mistake. Your dog may be a sweetie but this cross mixes two very different characters & temperaments and the resultant puppies can have construction, health & mental issues. What about the rest of the litter & the parents?

He sounds lovely and Im guessing his name is Peanuts, my best friend used to own Pugs who often stayed with me and were lovely. My mother used to own a Beagle so I would love to see some pics of your boy.
 
S4sugar - tell someone who's interested!!!!

Dobiegirl - he is absolutely adorable. I am not a fan of Pugs myself but the puggle has the best traits from both. He actually gets mistaken for a boxer most of the time :-)
His name isn't peanuts actually, that was my sons name when I was pregnant with him!!!
:-)
 
S4Sugar that is very harsh, not everyone has your experience and people respond better when treated like adults.

We all know on here the perils of buying designing dogs and Im sure you also know my feelings on people who breed them. We also know how many people feed Bakers but as I said people respond better when treated like adults.
 
Sorry if it seems harsh but we have had requests to take two "Bassiepoos" & a "springbatt" this week - all bought by people who had "researched the breed" and all not suited to their families.

I understand why you feel the way you do and I do sympathise but the only way to change this is education. Most of the general public see both parents are KC reg and take that as it must be good breeding and unless they are told different they are not to know.
 
Well he is suited to our family, just because you have have been asked to take in 2 crossbreeds doesnt mean that I am one of those people that haven't researched into the breed!!

I do not wish to be tarred with the same brush!!
 
I will post pics when In a bit when I go on my computer (I am on my phone ATM)

But please, if anyone has any negative comments, keep them to yourselves!!!
 
Would love to see some piccies :)

I personally would breed a Pug with a Beagle for many reasons especially the size difference (should hope the Pug was the dad!) but that doesn't mean peanutsmumma is the devil reincarnate for owning him. All very well putting opinions across but think it should be done in a diplomatic way, even those involved in rescues with strong opinions. Not the dog's or owner's fault he exists, so long as he's looked after and loved forever what's the problem?
