Check the kennel clubs site - click on the search for a puppy, and choose pug and it will bring up a list of everyone who has recently registered a litter with their contact details. As mentioned before a pug puppy should be at least £800 (more like £1000 - £1200) so that ad is definatley a scam. There are a lot of them about. Also it can be a sign of a puppy farm if they offer to deliver so you cannot see the conditions and meet the parents. They bring you a puppy, which is usually ill and then you have the heartache of trying to get it better. You could try breed rescue, but you rarely get puppies available.
Good Luck

I applied to an ad like this a few months ago.It was 1 Pug puppy in Ireland. I knew it was a scam from the beginning and dragged it out In the end they said I couldnt pick up from Ireland as they had to move the puppy. It turned out it as in Cameroon Idiots

If your looking for a pug puppy, go to preloved.co.uk and enter "pug" as your keyword. Hope this helps!
