Basically, I took my kids (3&1) to the local animal shelter earlier to see the rabbits and cats. It was meant to be a free activity, but as we were looking at the dogs, we saw two adorable (if not massively slightly ugly pugs)
I spoke to the rehoming officer, and she said that in the history of the shelter (15yrs+) they have never had this breed.
Now, problem 1- we didnt want a dog for a few years as we have holidays booked and wanted a bigger house first
2- I always wanted a pug, but at £1000+ could never afford one so eventually we were going to get a mongrel
3- We only wanted one dog but these must stay together
Ok, so my dilemma is they will only hold them till tomorrow noon for us, and they WILL be rehomed this weekend due to being v. posh doggies. I never thought having a pug, let alone two would ever be an option. They met the kids earlier, and got on really well. Insurance quoted at £20 p.month for both. I cannot find a single negative comment on google about pugs with kids, as I always said I wouldnt get an older dog cuz of not knowing a history iyswim.
HELP I want them, but am I being crazy!!!!
