Members of the Kennel Club Accredited breeders scheme.

 

Conquell Pugs are based on the outskirts of Carmarthen.  Our pugs all enjoy a very active & healthy life on our smallholding getting lots of exercise with our German Shepherd dogs, we specialise in the two breeds, taking enormous care in the selection of our breeding stock to ensure healthy and happy puppies.

 

Our Pugs are also doing consistently well in the show ring at open and championship level which to us is an added bonus.

 

 

Margo, Eebie, Pepe, Rupert and Pumpkin

 

 

All our dogs are microchipped and their DNA profile is held with the Kennel Club.

 

Having bred German Shepherd dogs (GSDs) for some 30 years and having always undertaken breed health testing, I feel it my responsibility to do this for the pugs as well,early in 2010 all my breeding stock will be screened for Hemivertebrae and undergo hip screening.

 

Rupert, Tufnell, Eebie and Pumpkin have all been screened and are CLEAR of Hemivertebrae.  Results for the others will be posted once tested.

 

Conquell History

 

Having owned, bred and trained GSDs for more than 30 years (see our GSD website for more information www.conquell.co.uk) I decided that I would like a smaller breed of dog that I could enjoy showing myself, however I wanted one that would be robust enough to run alongside our GSDs for exercising and life in general around our small farm.

 

After researching one or two of the small breeds I kept coming back to the Pug, and remembering the two charming characters we met and fell in love with some 15 years ago whilst in America, at the time I remember saying to my partner , slightly tongue in cheek, "when I get old and have to downsize I will get a Pug"!!  Research into these charming, comical, exhuberant and cheeky characters, brought comfirmation that a Pug was to be my "small" dog.  Everything I learned about them seemed to bode well for the type of dog I needed to fit in with my current lifestyle.

 

To cut a long story short, fate stepped in and by pure chance my path crossed with a Pug Breeder, Sue Patience, who had a litter and of course visiting them was fatal.  A few weeks later I was the proud owner of "Pumpkin" (Portenta Really Does it for Conquell) who has charmed everyone who meets her, she  alone is  responsible for many of my staunch "I only like big dogs" friends to have totally changed their opinion of the Pug dog.  Needless to say my partner Tony and our son, Tom are  totally smitten by these most charming, comical and loving little dogs. As you can imagine we havent stopped at one.

 

Currently living with us are Pumpkin, her sons Pepe and Rupert, her daughter Margo and our black pugs Eebie and her son Tufnell.  We also have a charming Pug "Lily" who we rescued at just 2 years old, from a life of being confined to a kennel all day with no stimulation or love, she hadn't even been given a name.  Since being with us she has blossomed into a little dog full of the character and charm expected of a pug.
