Gosh. I don't know quite what to say about this terrible situation except thank goodness TJ and Roxy have you to love and care for them.

I do not own a yorkie, but I did purchase a pug puppy from Laura and Bryant in January of 2006. My partner at the time found them on-line and I'm not sure what prompted her to use them except the incredibly adorable furry puggie that was in the picture on their website. (The pup was a surprise for me) We drove 6 hours from western mass. to a mcdonald's parking lot in whitehall, me. (which I thought was shady) where Bryant met us with Olive. We signed the papers, exchanged small talk and got back in the car. She came with a sweater on, a baby blanket (which we still have), some food, her papers, and a toy. I do remember seeing a picture of a Roxy on their website right around the same time... was that your Roxy? I also swore that I noticed under the picture that Roxy "now lives in Long Island"...b/c I remember thinking that those people came a long way to get a puppy.

I did try sending them a picture and an update but I never got any response... hmm... seems to be standard with them I guess. I never tried to correspond with them again. And so far, to my knowledge, we have been very lucky with Olive. She is just the most adorable pug and full of personality. I can only hope that her first few weeks living in that house weren't a nightmare... but at least I know for certain that if it was a nightmare, she will never have to worry about living like that again. Just like TJ and Roxy won't ever have to worry.

Before I stumbled upon these posts, I contemplated getting her a brother or sister from them. Now I guess, since they have taken much of their site down, I can't even try to rescue a puppy from their "home". I did always wonder why Olive didn't come with AKC but rather Continental. Not until I read these post did that get cleared up.

Does anyone know of a message board like this for pugs, where they might rate pug breeders.... I would love to see if there are other pug owners who got their pugs from Brylaur and see what, if anything, might be in store for Olive.

I wish TJ and Roxy and you the best!
