Private NYS Hobby Pure Breed Pug, Great Pyrenees & Saint Bernard Breeder
American Homestead of the Original Ancient Chinese Purebred Pug Heritage Preservationists & The
Farmstead of Our European Gentle Giants

Walk The Line Pug Ranch (WTL) & Hard Rock Farm (HRF) are not a commercial kennel but a private family’s homestead and farmstead. Our dogs live in a healthy, enriched combined Human and dog family-oriented environment, receiving round-the-clock care, socialization, and love.

Our Family’s Commitment

At our private New York State hobby breeding homestead & farmstead, we are passionately dedicated to the preservation, health, and responsible breeding of three remarkable purebred dog breeds: the ancient Chinese Pug, the majestic Great Pyrenees, and the noble Saint Bernard.

  • Pugs, cherished for their playful and affectionate nature, thrive in our carefully maintained indoor setting.
  • Saint Bernards, renowned for their gentle temperament and protective instincts, are raised to embody strength, kindness, and loyalty.
  • Great Pyrenees, naturally skilled in guarding livestock and families alike, are bred with an emphasis on their ancient working dog heritage.

Whether indoors or on our safe, well-guarded farmstead grounds, our dogs enjoy proper nutrition, exercise, companionship, and top-tier veterinary care beyond routine checkups. Every pup is raised to fit seamlessly into a loving and prepared forever home.

We specialize in the Original Ancient Chinese Purebred Pug, with a mission to preserve and enhance this beloved breed’s heritage.

WTL has successfully applied our well-learned Ancient Chinese Pure Breed Pug Breeding Method, a practice that continuously improves desirable Pug genetics while eliminating the undesirable—resulting in healthier, sturdier Pugs of exemplary quality. Since the year “2000”, Our passionate, studies, practices, and achievements have exceled us into recognition as a responsible Quality Pure Breed Pug Breeder, Caretaker, Therapy Dog Trainer, and Pug Health Care & DNA Expert, while also maintaining the Ongoing Preservation and Enhancement of the Original Ancient Chinese Pure Breed Pug Heritage and the Original Pug Breed Standard…./

This we do, in order to provide a superior quality, healthier and more durable Pug Breed, for the fulfillment of adopting them as Companions into “Pug Loving” Family’s Homes, in order to induce the joyful atmosphere and loving companionship that each and every Pug inevitably brings into any responsible and deserving home…./ ….

Our Expanding Mission

Building on our expertise, WTL remains active in promoting Pure Breed White and Brindle Pugs, developed over 20 years of dedicated genetic study. As part of WTL’s continuous growth, HRF now proudly extends our commitment of responsible breeding and superior health care to Saint Bernard’s and Great Pyrenees, bred with equal dedication to preserving their historical lineage. These majestic breeds known for their intelligence, have their own unique temperament and strengths, making them ideal companions for families, therapy work, and even livestock protection in the case of Great Pyrenees. Just as WTL does with Pugs, HRF focuses on maintaining their original breed characteristics by selective breeding and dedicated health care practices, enhancing their genetics, and ensuring they remain the strong, well-tempered companions they were meant to be.

Pugs: Ancient Charm, Modern Companions

The Pug is an ancient breed originating in China around 400 B.C., where it was prized as a companion to emperors and often lived under royal protection. These cherished dogs later spread to Japan, Russia, and eventually to Europe in the 16th century, capturing the hearts of royalty such as Queen Victoria of England and Prince William of Orange. Pugs are small, compact dogs typically weighing between 14 to 18 pounds, with a short, glossy coat that comes in fawn, black, silver, or apricot. They are instantly recognizable by their wrinkled, flat-muzzled faces, expressive eyes, and curled tails. Personality-wise, Pugs are known for being charming, affectionate, and sociable—playful but dignified companions who adapt well to various living environments. Fun fact: Chinese breeders intentionally shaped the wrinkles on a Pug’s forehead to resemble the character for “prince” (王), further emphasizing their royal legacy.

Great Pyrenees: Noble Livestock Guardians

Great Pyrenees are instinctively excellent farm guard dogs and are widely used as livestock guardian dogs (LGDs). They were originally bred in the Pyrenees Mountains between France and Spain to protect flocks from predators like wolves and bears. Their territorial nature, strong protective instincts, and nocturnal vigilance make them ideal for farm settings. While they are also great home guardians and protectors of their Human family, they are best suited for farm homesteads and prefer the outdoors where they can roam freely and protect livestock. They are known for their gentle temperament with animals
and children, but they are fiercely defensive against outside threats

Saint Bernards: Courageous Companions

Saint Bernard’s are better suited as house guard dogs rather than farm guard dogs. They were originally bred for Human rescue work by the hospice of the Great ST Bernard Pass on the Italian-Swiss border. While they have a large, intimidating presence and a deep bark that easily deters intruders. Their gentle temperament towards their Human family makes them excellent family dogs and loyal companions, while they also have strong instincts and excel at watchful protection of their Human family against any outside threats. Saints require 24/7 outdoor access but often prefer spending time indoors.

WTL’S Recommended Parasite Prevention, Inoculations, & DeWorming Protocols

Dec, 2012 – “After many months of deliberation on my part and above and beyond patience on Walk The Line’s part, our family adopted a most beautiful 1-1/2 y/o female pug, Mia. She has become the perfect, loving companion to our 6 y/o male pug w/ special needs, whom we love dearly. As soon as Mia came into our home, the two of them were instant pals. Walk The Line patiently guided me through the process of trying to figure out which puppy or adult dog would be a suitable companion for Chulo. Since having a rescue pug that was poorly bred and riddled with problems and loving the pug breed, I was determined to find a pug that was bred for excellence in every possible way, and I found that with Walk The Line. Our Mia is not only the most beautiful pug, but she is the picture of health and very intelligent.”

Thank you Walk The Line family for our little Mia. Jeanne & Tony Matos

~ Talented Animals Blog ~

This Page Is Dedicated To Present Primarily To Our “Adoptive Parents” a basic recommended platform of “PARASITE PREVENTION, INOCULATION, & De-WORMING PROTOCOLS”… These protocols which we have based primarily on the current standard (AAHA) & (AVMA) guidelines… However as with many things in life, there remains great controversy in the Vetting Industry as to the many pros, cons, controversies as to whether & when to, or not to provide certain drugs or vaccines or therapies, etc. as to the prevention or treatment potentially being worse than the potential ailment… Specifically any drugs that are outside of the Standard (AAHA) Recommended Core such as Leptospirosis vaccine and Coronavirus vaccine, Bordetella vaccine, Heartworm preventatives, Flea, Tick & Lyme Disease preventatives, etc… WTL has set forth a basic general platform, based on WTL’S diligent studies, many hundreds of own experiences working with all various ages of Pugs, many experiences working along side our own several privately hired Vet techs and DVM’S along the way, since the year “2000”… All this, adjoined with the invaluable wide spectrum of knowledge base provided us by our team of Mentors consisting of private family (described below) including those that are or were at one time actively engaged in some aspect of or the practices of Veterinary Medicine…

With each Pug Puppy Adoption Applicant, we start out with WTL’S standard recommended Pug “PPID Protocol”… This Protocol caters specific to the PureBreed Pug Breed and specific to the Geography of the North East United States… Whom else other than WTL to date, is better qualified to prepare your/our Pug Pups initial Care Protocol… WTL is the only one  that is familiar and learned with your potential new Pug Pups Specifics: Heritage, Genetics, Breeding, Whelping, Historical General Care Needs, Vetting History, Etc??? The simple answer is No One, including with all due respect, any potentially higher learned Veterinary Professional whom may be well learned in the Pug Breed & Veterinary Medicine, however to date knows absolutely nothing about the Heritage or specific clinical history of your particular case specific potential new

Pug Pup!!!

Disclaimer: This Well Studied Information Again Is Being Provided Free Of Charge By WTL As Our Standard Proprietary General Pug Care Start Up Protocol, For Pet Pug Care Informational Purposes Only And Is Not Intended To Provide Veterinary Care And/Or Replace The Case Specific Advice Of Your Own Privately Hired (DVM) Or (MD) Post Pug Adoption…

_________________________________________________________________________________________

Since many of these controversial final decisions to be made in the start up Pug Care Protocol must be finally determined case specific in regards to the particular PAO’S Home, Geographical Location, Life Style, etc… In addition, consideration is given for the established practiced “PPID” protocols of the PAO’S own private hired (DVM’S), and of course also to whatever particular degree of knowledge &/or opinion that the PAO has in these matters… That said, WTL will discuss & present our recommended “PPID” Pug Care Protocol with each & every potential PAO… Additionally highly recommended, (upon request) WTL will gladly orchestrate through the potential new PAO, a (2 or 3 way) Communication regarding the “PPID” Pug Care Protocol with the PAO’S s own private (DVM), at some point while processing your adoption application, in order to mutually discuss & establish with the PAO and your own private (DVM) the best appropriate case specific recommended protocol for your potential Pug, prior to Pug Adoption & transfer of ownership… With all due respect, this will not be discussed by WTL with your (DVM’S) secretary, the office mgr., a Vet technician, etc., but only with your primary (DVM)!!! It is a part of the PAO’S responsibility, and your own private hired primary (DVM’S) to provide Pug for Life, this small portion of your time/s initially, which will establish the basic post adoption start up (and barring any troubles/required changes going forward post adoption), with an ongoing proper Health Care platform which will best provide Pug with a long lasting & healthy quality life!!! Furthermore, if you may have been a previous, or are a current Pet/Pug owner, and have never been provided and explained a similar type care platform for your Animal/s by your (DVM), then you should have been, and it should also be provided you Species, Breed, Geographical Location,  & Household specific, not generic one size fits all!!! This said, if this herein posted WTL policy of establishing a pre-adoption (2 or 3 way) agreed to start up “PPID” Pug Care Protocol, is not acceptable to you as a potential new PAO and/or your (DVM’S), then please respectfully disengage WTL immediately and take your Pug search elsewhere because your Pug adoption with WTL will never come to fruition…

The initial Pug recommended Health Care platform program herein has been developed and authored by by WTL… Hopefully this strongly encourages the new PAO and the post Pug adoption Vet Care Provider  into working together as a team adjoining with WTL, for the best benefit of the Pug… WTL feels confident that our program will be a dramatic improvement in the previously uncoordinated Professional Breeding & Vetting Practices for all that are involved in to stand up, take proper responsibility for what Animals that Breeders are Breeding, take proper responsibility for what Animals that Pet Care Providers (DVM’S) are being paid to cared for, and finally for Pet Owners to be better educated into providing the proper care and responsibility that goes along with the decision to adopt or purchase an Animal… Any of the above type individuals or organizations that would irresponsibly not want to participate or set forth the effort in such a Pet Care type program of sorts, should not be in the Professional Pet Industry or a Pet Owner, period…

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Now presumably all moving forward, this adjoined “Pug Care Team” shall then afterwards have established an initial adjoined road map and set forth accordingly to provide the Pug with the best chance of having a long, healthy, happy life and being able to take advantage of and not to throw away the opportunity for a Healthy long life that Pug has been provided due to the premium quality of which Pug has been Bred which includes countless hours spent by WTL in the responsible Breeding, Whelping, Rearing, Socializing, & all around properly preparing Pug for having a healthy long life…

WTL as part of any Pug Puppy adoption will subsequently provide this (2 or 3 way) recommended “Adjoined Pug Care Protocol” along with all of the additional Comprehensive Pug Health & General Care Information that we standardly provide, in a printed hard copy & via email fashion to the new PAO within our Comprehensive Pug Adoption Health Care Guide… Once having mutually established Pugs Recommended case specific start up “PPID Protocol”, From post adoption going forward, the protocol would be then continued & adjusted if deemed necessary by your DVM’s through direct discussion & approval by you… Post Pug Adoption, WTL would no longer be a decision maker in the Pugs initial mutually agreed to Pug Health Care Protocols, but strongly recommends that we be consulted as a “free of charge” well educated Pug Health Care Advisor, prior to you making any “non emergency” changes to the pre-established recommended Vetting Protocols… This again, would be left up to the new PAO’s discretion guided by your own private hired (DVM’S)… However, WTL’S “Free Assistance, Advice, &/or Opinion” going forward always remains available & is strongly encouraged to be called upon… 

DISCLAIMER: Should the new PAO &/or your (DVM’S) make any post adoption changes to the Initial Pre-Adoption WTL recommended Pug Care Protocol without the consult/consent of WTL, (particularly non-emergency related changes or changes made for certain specific clinical benefits) then the PAO would do so at your own discretion and the WTL originally provided Pug Health Guarantee or Congenital Defect Health Guarantee shall potentially become either partially or wholly null & void, depending on reasons given per case specific circumstance and Pug’s resulting health declination or condition…

With an wholly agreed to (2 or 3 way) “Adjoined Pug Care Team Protocol” in place as described above, WTL will now be offering up to a (10) year Pug Congenital Defect Health Guarantee with all of our Pug pups as a show of the faith we have in our Pugs Premium Bred Health Quality… However, any requested and agreed to changes or deviations that are made from the original WTL recommended Pre-Adoption Pug Care Protocol prior to or post adoption, may reduce or perhaps even eliminate our ability to provide the new PAO with a health guarantee, case specific… If the suggested/requested Pre-Adoption changes or deviations to the original basic AAHA & AVMA guide lined & recommended WTL Pug Care Basic Protocol are so unreasonable risky to our Pug’s Immune Sufficient Bred Health & Welfare as to be not acceptable to WTL,

then solely at our discretion the Adoption Application shall be denied in it’s entirety

“For Cause”…

{PPID PROTOCOL REGIMEN}

Natural Prevention, Control Pugs Environment, Practice Good Hygiene, Abstinence From Potential Sources Of  Disease & Parasites, Twice A Year Blood Tests, For A Long Life Healthy Immune Sufficient Pug… All In Lieu Of Poisoning Our Pugs With Regimental Immune System Destructive Drugs & Toxic Parasite Preventions!!!

BELOW IS THE WTL WELL STUDIED PRACTICED & STRONGLY RECOMMENDED PUG (SMALL) BREED SPECIFIC

PARASITE PREVENTION, INOCULATION, & DE-WORM PROTOCOL REGIMEN… OUR INOCULATION REGIMEN IS PRIMARILY BASED ON THE CURRENT (AAHA) & (AVMA) CANINE RECOMMENDED GUIDELINES, EXTRAPOLATED IN CONJUNCTION WITH OUR MANY VARIOUS CURRENT & OVER THE YEARS “MENTORS” RELATIONSHIPS SINCE “2000”, WITH OUR OWN PRIVATELY HIRED VETERINARIANS (DVM’S), AS WELL AS OUR OWN COMPREHENSIVE EXPERIENCES & DILIGENCE IN THE STUDIES OF CANINE INOCULATIONS WHICH ENCOMPASSES A WIDE VARIANCE OF PRO’S VERSES CON’S AND THE VARIOUS POTENTIAL SHORT TERM ALLERGIC TO POTENTIALLY FATAL REACTIONS IN ADDITION TO THE POTENTIALLY LIFE LONG HARMS OR LIFE ENDING INTERACTIONS WITH THE VERY COMPLEX CANINE IMMUNE SYSTEM:

YOU WILL BE AMAZED TO LEARN THE MORE DILIGENT THAT YOU STUDY THESE VARIOUS PROTOCOLS EVEN AMONG THE SUPPOSED EXPERTS, THAT THERE IS NO DEFINITIVE OR CLEAR CUT GUIDELINES AS TO WHAT VACCINES YOUR CANINE SHOULD HAVE< HOW OFTEN THESE VARIOUS VACCINES SHOULD BE ADMINISTERED< AND FOR THAT MATTER SHOULD WE EVEN BE VACCINATING OUR CANINES AT ALL WITH THESE TOXINS!!!

These guidelines WTL can only recommend as a standard basic Pug (Small) Breed Specific Regimen… Your own hired (DVM’S) should always be consulted & advise you when/how/if need be (for cause) to properly/safely deviate from the WTL recommended regimen, based on their own Veterinary training, experience, & practiced regimen while also taking into consideration the case specific Health Record, Immunization Reactions History of your specific Pug in addition to the Geographical related prevalence  of the many various Disease & Pests prevention requirements of your specific Pugs to be environment where you reside…

Annual Titers tests & (3) times per year (SNAP-4Dx) tests are strongly recommended for your specific pup which you can ask your own private (DVM) about… These are extremely helpful prior to any Vaccinations, preventative Heartworm or Tick meds,  in order best being educatively able to determine potentially when & how to deviate from the WTL standard recommended

Pug (Small Breed Specific) Regimen!!!

We “Titer Test” our Dams normally appx (6 weeks) post whelping… Based on our average history of High Maternal Antibodies still being present at that time, we do not ever begin our puppy inoculation regimen prior to (8 weeks) of age…

___________________________________________________________________________

***********************************************************

{WTL PUGS ADVISED INOCULATION & PARASITE PREVENTION REGIMEN}

In particular Leptospirosis Bacteria Vaccines, Coronavirus Vaccines, Bordetella Vaccines, Lyme Disease Vaccines, Giardia Vaccines, Canine Adenovirus-1 (CAV-1 MLV and Killed) Vaccines, Canine Parvovirus (CPV-2 Killed) Vaccines, Canine Adenovirus-2 (CAV-2 Killed or MLV-Topical) Vaccines, Any/All other Exotic Vaccines, are generally recommended against (some more than others), other than for case specific potentially prevalent highly infected Endemic Regional Or Case Specific Geographical Home Location Environments… These are not generally recognized by the (AAHA) as Canine Core Bacteria or Virus Vaccination Protocol and are generally left up to use only if recommended by your own privately chosen (DVM’S) for case specific “Substantiated Reasonable cause”… Leptospirosis Vaccine presents the highest risk of anaphylactic shock reactions in small breed dogs and is also recently recognized as being a certain higher percentage risk for the potential of triggering IMHA and other Immune system destruction disorders, Malignant Cancers, Blindness, Renal Failure, Mast Cell Tumors, Etc.. Also being the catalyst of a potentially life long disability or eminent death… Although Leptospirosis is known to be Zoonotic, It is quite easily preventable with a simple Routine Regimen of Abstinence from the Source, General Household Hygiene, & Early Recognition… It is also a Bacteria with a long gestation period of easily recognizable symptoms and quite easily curable if ever contracted and properly diagnosed with a fairly safe short term regimen of Antibiotics… As far as ‘Heartworm Preventatives”, the AAHA is cautiously proactive, however WTL is a strong advocate of quarterly “Heartworm Tests” in lieu of an easily avoidable regimental dose of what is unquestionably a low dose toxin to your Pug, saying it lightly!!! A monthly regimental Dose of a Basic Parasite De-Wormer such as Pyrantel Paomate & Praziquantel which is standard manufactured in generally safe over the counter products such as the Canine De-Wormer product “D-Worm”, is strongly WTL recommended, this however does Not contain any Heartworm Preventatives…

You may say “all of this can possibly be the result of one simple vaccination”, the answer unfortunately is quite simply YES!!!

BASE PROTOCOL – CANINE STANDARD CORE VIRUSES VACCINES: Core Virus Vaccinations Are Governed By Veterinary Medicine, Not By Law…    WTL Recommends A DAPP Combo Vaccine, The Particular Brand That We Have Had A Very Good History With Is Nobivac; Canine (1-DAPPv) By Intervet…  These Would Include Your Canine Parvovirus (CPV-S Modified Live Only); Canine Distemper (CDV Either Modified Live or Recombinant); Canine Adenovirus (CAV-2 Modified Live Only); +/- Canine Parainfluenza (CPIV);

(1st) DHPP Combo Inoculation At (8 Weeks Of Age)

(2nd) DHPP Combo Inoculation At (12 Weeks Of Age)

(3rd) DHPP Combo Inoculation At (16 Weeks Of Age)

(4th) DHPP Combo Inoculation At (1 Year From The Last Or At Appx 16 Months Of Age)

(5th) DHPP Combo Inoculation At (3 Years From The Last Or At Appx 52 Months Of Age Or Tentatively Longer, ***** See Note Below)

***** It Is Always Strongly Recommended, Especially After Your Pug Has Received The First (4) Inoculations Above, To Have Your Private Chosen (DVM’S) Perform Titer tests On Your Pug For The Core Vaccine Viruses Listed Above… That Said, At Any Time From Inoculation #4 Above Going Forward, If Your Pugs Immunity To The Core Viruses Tests Results Are Sufficiently High, Then It Is Strongly Suggested To Consult With Your Private Chosen (DVM’S) In Order To Potentially Widen The Gap Between Any Core Inoculations From This point Forward… The Older Your Pug Gets, The More The Need For The Safety Requirement Of Titer Testing!!!

(6th) DHPP Combo Inoculation At (3 Years From The Last Or At Appx 88 Months Of Age Or Tentatively Longer, ***** See Note Above)            

(7th) DHPP Combo Inoculation At (3 Years From The Last Or At Appx 124 Months Of Age Or Tentatively Longer, ***** See Note Above)

(8th) DHPP Combo Inoculation At (3 Years From The Last Or At Appx 150 Months Of Age Or Tentatively longer) At This Age Of Pugs Life (At Any Time Beyond The Actual Date Of Inoculation #7 Above), It Is Highly Recommended To Discontinue With Any Core Vaccinations Unless You Absolutely Have Titer Tests Done And Your Private Chosen (DVM’S) Present You With A Case Specific Very Good Health Or Immune Deficient Reason To Continue With Any Inoculations

Clinical Note: Beware Of The Following Vaccines Which Are Not Still Common But Still Found Out There… These Were At One Time Recognized As Being A Part Of The Standard AAHA Canine Core Vaccination Protocol < However These Are Now Out Dated And Recognized As Being Either Not As Safe Or Not As Effective As The More Modern AAHA Protocol As Is Described Just Above…
Not Recommended: Canine Adenovirus-1 (CAV-1 MLV and Killed) Vaccines, Not Recommended Canine Parvovirus (CPV-2 Killed) Vaccines, Not Recommended Canine Adenovirus-2 (CAV-2 Killed or MLV-Topical) Vaccines,

BASE PROTOCOL – CORE RABIES VIRUS VACCINE: Rabies Vaccinations Are Governed First By Your State & Local Laws, & Secondarily By Veterinary Medicine… Also Note That Rabies Virus Is Zoonotic (Can Migrate Between Species, IE: Canine To Human) The NYS Guidelines Are As follows And The NYS Rabies Fact Sheet Is Also Attached Below;

The 1st Date Due required by NYS Law is by 4 Months of Age… We very strongly recommend not to inoculate for the Rabies prevention on the same date as the DAPPv inoculations, as this provides a critically important & distinguishable additional safety guard against Anaphylactic Shock, Allergic, or other adverse Immune System Reaction… The 2nd rabies Inoculation is due by NYS Law 1 Year Past The 1st Inoculation, or at 16 Months of Age… The 3rd Rabies Inoculation is due by NYS Law 3 years Past The 2nd Inoculation, or at 52 Months of Age… All Subsequent Rabies Inoculations are Due Every 3 Years Past The 3rd Inoculation, for life unless your Pug suffers a severe allergic reaction, (and survives), then your (DVM’S) can assist you in applying for a request with your State to potentially nullify the future requirement of any Rabies Inoculations… Your State may grant it, they may not, each case is specific…

(1st) Rabies Inoculation At (4 Months Of Age)

(2nd) Rabies Inoculation At (1 Year Since The Last Or At Appx 16 Months Of Age)

(3rd) Rabies Inoculation At (3 Years Since The Last Or At Appx 52 Months Of Age) And Then At Every (3 Year Intervals For Life)

SECONDARY PROTOCOL – CANINE COMMON KNOWN NON CORE VIRUSES/BACTERIA VACCINES: Non Core Virus Vaccinations Are Also Governed By Veterinary Medicine, Not By Law…  Non Core Vaccinations Are Not Recommended As A Standard Canine Protocol By The “AAHA”, Only To Be Administered At Your Own Privately Chosen (DVM’S) Discretion And Yours, And Only To Be Administered With Caution For Certain High Risk Potential Canine Breeds, Due To Their Typical Activity. IE: Hunting Dogs & Canines That Are In Case Specific Geographical Habitats Or Private Home Or Shelter Environments That Are Considered To Be In “Highly Potentially Prevalent Infected Environments”…  

Certain Non Core Vaccinations Are Strongly Recommended Against By The “AAHA”, Even At All!!!   

SECONDARY PROTOCOL – NON CORE VIRUS VACCINE; CORONAVIRUS: Not Ever Recommended!!! “AAHA QUOTE – Canine Coronavirus (CCV) Vaccination Is Not Recommended On The Grounds That Infection: (1) Causes Mild Or Subclinical Disease, (2) Generally Occurs In Dogs 6 Wk Of Age And Younger, And (3) Is Typically Self-Limiting”…

The WTL Take On This, The Extremely Low Prevalence Of Confirmed Clinical Cases Adjoined With The Fact That Clinical Disease Rarely Occurs And Is Typically Mild And Self Limiting In An Otherwise Healthy Animal, Heavily Out Weighs Any Need/Requirement For Vaccination… IE; If Your Pug Is Not Already Infected With A Much Higher Risk Core Disease Such As Parvovirus, Then The likelihood Of Ever Contracting Coronavirus Is Highly Unlikely…

Not Ever Recommended Unless PAO’S Private Hired (DVM’S) Present A Case Specific And Well Warranted Reason Such As: An Extreme Infested or Endemic Environment; Case Specific Emergency or Preventative Determination Based On The Pugs Current Health Condition; Etc…

SECONDARY PROTOCOL – NON CORE VIRUS VACCINE; LEPTOSPIROSIS: Highly Ever Recommended In Most Breeds Even By The “AAHA” & Especially Not In Home Bodied Toy Breeds such as Pugs, Only Should Be Considered In A High Risk Infectious Exposure Environment Such As A Hunting Dogs, Or In A Prevalent Rodent Infested Area Or Endemic Geographical Location Such As Tropics, Sub Tropics, & South East Us As Example…  A Safe Practice Of Abstinence From The Various Potential Sources & A Practice Of Good General House Hold Hygiene Is Best For Both Humans & Pug, Lepto Is Also Zoonotic!!!  If/When administered, Should Be Provided As A Single Stand Alone Vaccination Under Closely Vet Monitored Post Inoculation Surveillance (Minimum Of One Hour), Due To It’s High Rate Of Adverse Allergic And Possible Anaphalactic Shock Type Reactions (Particularly In Toy Breeds & Particulary vaccines Manufactured With An Adjuvant)… Leptospirosis Vaccines Now Come Manufactured In Several Ways In Order To Help Alleviate The Potential For Reaction However,  All Versions Still Are A Relatively New Highly Recognized Controversy As To The Vaccine’s High Risk Association With The Potential Cause Of Life Long Disabilities, Disease, & Triggering Immune System Destruction Disorders…  IE:  “IMHA”, Malignant Cancers, Blindness, Renal Failure, Acute Organ Failure, Liver failure, Pancreatitus, Soft Tissue Degeneration, Mast Cell Tumors,  All Of Which Are Potentially A Catalyst Of Either Life Long Disability And/Or Short Or Or Long Term Eminent Death!!!

As Such, The FDA Has Yet To Approve Of A Leptospirosis Vaccine For Humans In The United States Because They Are Not Considered  Safe Or Effective…

“Human vaccination against leptospirosis is certainly a goal of the research community and would undoubtedly save many thousands of lives each year, but progress has been extremely slow. Currently a vaccine is being tested in Cuba, and results are promising, but it is not yet licensed in the wider world and there are insufficient long-term studies to satisfy us it is safe for widespread use. Human vaccination is a high-profile topic with the public and media, and the potential for side effects in later life, or issues with pregnancy and birth defects, must be ruled out before any medication is issued to the general public on a large scale.

The use of veterinary vaccines in humans is extremely dangerous and must never be attempted!

http://www.leptospirosis.org/human-vaccines/

“A leptospirosis vaccine for Humans is not currently available in the U.S.; however, high-risk workers in some European and Asian countries may have access to a vaccine. Unfortunately, the vaccines are serovar-specific (bacterial-strain specific) and thus do not offer widespread protection as there are over 200 serovars (immunologically distinct types of the bacteria). Some vaccines are available for animals but these, like the human vaccines, are only effective against a narrow range of serovars” …..

https://www.medicinenet.com/leptospirosis/article.htm#is_a_vaccine_available_for_leptospirosis_is_it_possible_to_prevent_leptospirosis

Clinical Note: Even If You Do Opt For This Vaccination You Are Only Providing Your Pug With A Potential Protection Against The Most (4) Common Serovars (strains) Out of Appx 230 Serovars!!! Lastly The Leptospirosis Vaccination (At Least Many Certain Ones Depending On The Manufacturing Process) Although It Is A “Killed Vaccine Can Potentially Stop The Clinical Signs Of Leptospirosis To The Dog, However Will NOT Stop Infection… A Vaccinated Pet, If Infected With Leptospirosis, Can & Will Shed The Bacteria In The Urine, Hence Thus Vaccinating For Lepto Has The Potential To Create Asymptomatic Carriers”… “Leptospirosiis Vaccination Can & Does Reportedly Potentially Present Sub Clinical Infection To The Vaccination Recipient And Therefore Can Cause Their Urine For A Period Of Time Then after To Be Infected & Shed Therefore having The Potential To Infect Other Humans Or Pets In The Household With Actual Leptospirosis!!! Some Vets May Refute This Last Statement, However As Credible Irrefutable Evidence, WTL Has Posted Above Under The “Dog Place Logo”, One Well Renown (DVM’S) Opinion, Patricia Jordan, And Above One Renown Educated Canine Magazine’s Opinion, “Dogs Naturally” Which Is Supported By Renown (DVM’S) & (PHD’S), And Above Under The “ACERLUX Logo” By Dr. Christopher Lee,  ETC…

The One Heard Of By WTL, Leptospirosis Vaccine Which Was Only First Introduced In April, 2016 That Does Not have An Adjuvant & Which Reportedly Helps Prevent Shedding the Bacteria Is Recombitek c8 by Merial… However This Has Another Pitfall As It Is A Combo Vaccination That Is Mixed With The Standard Core Virus Vaccines… Multiple All In One Soup Vaccines Should Typically Always Be Avoided As They Create The Highest Risk Of Anaphylactic Shock And Various Other Reactions And Should There Be A Reaction, One Can Only Guess Which Of The Many Ingredients Was The Catalyst.  

   In The Unlikely Event (Considering The Above), That The Need For Leptospirosis Vaccine In Your Pug Can Be Substantiated By Your Local (DVM’S), It Should Be Administered Only As To The Recommended Following Regimen:   Pups ist Dose @ Minimum Of 6 Months Of Age, Pups 2nd Dose 2-3 Weeks Then after, Pups 3rd And Continued Doses Annually Then after. Do Your Own Diligence!!!

SECONDARY PROTOCOL – NON CORE VIRUS/S VACCINES; BORDETELLA: The AAHA Does Not Make Clear Comment On The Use Of This Vaccine Other Than It Is A Non Core Vaccine “Where Risk Of Exposure Is Sustained”…  “WTL Strongly Recommends Against This Vaccine & To Always Practice Abstinence Of Ever Boarding Or Kenneling Your Pug In A Common Canine Public Shelter/Boarder, For Many Various Reason And Not Only Just To Do With Bordetella…  If You Are A Truly Responsible “Pug Owner” Always Avoid Kennels & Kennel Environments… Find A More Appropriate Friend Or Relative Whom Is Already To Be Familiared/Trained With Your Case Specific Pug In Advance And Therefore Should Be Much Better And Safer capable Of Watching Your Pug For Short Periods Of Time… Hence, The Bordetella vaccines In A Non Canine public Shared Environment Would Not Be Necessary… Furthermore, the Effectiveness Of The Vaccines Efficacy Is Low To Moderate At Best Due To The Wide Spread Quantity Of Bordetella Virus Compared To The Specific Focus Of The Vaccines And Their Administration Route… The Protection Provided Your Pug Post Induction Is Slow To Be Effective, Minimal & Short Lived At Best And The Vaccine Is Commonly Known To Cause Adverse Kennel Cough Type Symptoms To Your Pet… Only Use When A Public Kennel Or Sheltering Is Absolutely Required/Unavoidable With Caution And Only Under Your Own Private (DVM’S) Administration & Supervision…

SECONDARY PROTOCOL – NON CORE LYME DISEASE VACCINE; (TICKS) & (FLEAS): The AAHA Comment “Where Risk Of Exposure Is Sustained, Dogs Traveling To Or Residing In Lyme Disease Endemic Areas”… Further Said, If Your Pug Will Be Spending A Lot Of Time Outside With You In Warmer Months (Which Should Be Aleeady Restricted Anyways, Pugs Do Not Fare Well In Hot Weather) And If You Reside In A Geographical Location Already Statistically Proven To Be Highly Tick Borne Prevalent Or Endemic Infested, Typically In Certain Geographical Weather Climates Which Are Insect Prone, Heavily Wooded, High Grasses, &/Or Rodent Prone (Flea Carriers)… Then, You May Want To Consult With Your DVM About A Prescribed Deterrent Product, However Very ILL Advised Against Any Chemically Manufactured Products, Best Advised Use Of Natural Deterrent Products… Your Local DVM’S Are The Only Ones That Can Make Educative Comment On Your Geographical Flea/Tick Conditions & Statistics… NEVER Purchase Over The Counter Flea Or Tick Products Without Your DVM’S Prescription Based On Case Specific Geographic Conditions!!!

     WTL Recommends Very Strongly Against Lyme Vaccinations As They Are Under Much Controversy Of Doing Much More Harm Than Good… For Example, Various Critical Illness, Violent Seizures, Death!!! Why Is It That The FDA Won’t Approve Another Lyme Vaccine For Humans Since The Last One Known As LYMERIX, Was Pulled From The Market Back In “2002” After Being Determined As “Causing Auto Immune Deficiencies In Humans”??? Various Tick/Flea Deterrent Insecticides Or Toxic Chemical Topicals, Sprays, Etc. For Mammals, Should Also Absolutely be Abstained From Use… Collar Type Flea/Tick Insecticide Or Toxic Chemical Deterrents Such As “Seresto Collars”, Should Even Furthermore Be Forbidden On Specifically The Pug Breed Due To The Fact That The Pug Breed Is Brachycephalic Which Already Predisposes Them To Breathing Difficulties Due To Inherit Breed Traits Such As: “Collapsing Trachea”; “Soft Elongated Palate”; “Constrained Nares”; Etc… That Said, There Certainly Is No Need To Worsen Things By Wrapping Yet Another Breathing Restriction & Strangulation Hazard Around Their neck!!!  This Is Also Not To Mention Potential Chemical Burns Around The Neck, Critical Illness, Seizures, Even Death!!! Time Release Products Such As Seresto Collars, Can Also Be Made Even More Dangerous Being Aggravated By Pugs Over Activity Into Releasing Too Much Product (Toxins) Too Quickly… (Please See Web Site Links For Seresto Just Below)

     The Bottom Line Is That All Of The Products Which Are Insecticides, Pesticides, Poisons, Or Toxic Chemicals Produced Specifically To Kill Insects, Fleas, Or Ticks, Etc. By Attacking The Central Nervous System Are In Some CERTAIN Various Degree Toxic To Your Pug & Even To A Certain Degree To The Pugs Human Caretakers/Handlers… The Drug Industries Clinical Comment Of These Products Use On Mammals Is That They Are Considered  “Moderately Toxic To Mammals If Ingested”, What B/S!!!

A Much Safer Approach In Lieu Of Controversial Preventative Vaccination Or Insecticide Collars Or Toxic Chemical Topicals Is To Avoid The Various Source Of Fleas & Ticks, Inspect Your Pug Nightly Before Bed (During Insect Months), Bathe Your Pug Once Weekly, And Selectively Consider The When Necessary Use Of Certain Safe & Quite Effective

“Non Insecticide” & “Non Toxic Chemical” Deterrents Such As “Diatomaceous Earth” or “Only Natural Pets” Flea/Tick Harness Tag & Various Other Natural Application Products…

WEB SITE LINK: https://www.onlynaturalpet.com/products/Only-Natural-Pet-EasyDefense-Flea-Tick-Tag/999024.aspx

FINAL TAKE: WTL Strongly Recommends As The Best Approach, A Similar Approach As To That Of Heartworm Prevention, Which Is Practice Abstinence From The Various Tick/Flea Source, Daily Inspections, Weekly Baths, & In Lieu Of Any  Preventative Lyme Vaccination Or Applications Type Chemically Manufactured Insecticides, Pesticides, Or Toxic Chemicals, Instead Perform A Once Every (4-6) Months Blood Test Starting @ (6) Months Of Age In Addition To The When Necessary Use Of Appropriate Natural Flea/Tick Deterrent Products As Described Above…

If You Or Your Pug Live Or Spend time In A Geographical Area Where Ticks Are Prevalent, Your Pug Should Be On A
Once Every (4-6) Months Starting @ (6) Months Of Age, (SNAP-4Dx) Test Or Accuplex Test, Both Of Which Check For Lyme Disease, Ehrlichiosis, & Anaplasmosis, Along With Heartworm… “””The traditional blood tests for diagnosing The Level Of A Positive Lyme Disease have been replaced by two new tests called the C6 Test and Quant C6 test. The C6 test is a preliminary blood test that detects antibodies against a very specific protein called “C6”. This protein is unique to the Borrelia bacteria, and the presence of antibodies to C6 suggests active Lyme infection. The C6 antibodies can be detected three to five weeks after a dog is bitten by an infected tick, and may be found in the blood stream even before the dog shows signs of illness. The C6 test is offered as part of a package of tests that looks for other tick-borne diseases. The test can be done by your veterinarian in-clinic or the blood sample can be sent to the laboratory for testing.”””

NO KNOWN PROTOCOL – GIARDIA VACCINE; (INTESTINAL PARASITES): While No AAHA Input Or Comment Can Be Found In Regard To This Intestinal Parasite, WTL’S General Comment Is That It Is Not Generally Recommended In A Typical Pugs Environment… Contraction Most Commonly Is By Drinking Water From A Lake, Pond, Stream, Puddle, Or Any Other Surface Which Has Been Contaminated With Any Species Of An Infected Animal’s Feces… Clinical Note: Giardia Is Yet Another Zoonotic Disease And Commonly Infects Humans, Canines, Other Species, That Are Living In Close Held Filthy Feces Contaminated Conditions And Contaminated From infected Feces Water sources… Yet Another Reason To Avoid Kenneling Or Unmonitored Socialization Of Your Pug With Other Animals And Abstinence From Public/Wild Water Sources And All Species Feces… Infections From Canine To Humans Is Possible However Quite Uncommon.

From ACERLUX Dr. Christopher Lee “““Giardia is a protozoal parasite that affects many mammals including dogs, cats and humans. While the strain (for Giardia, called Molecular Assemblages) that affect humans is usually not the molecular assemblage seen in dogs, canine Giardiasis can be transfered to humans.

Why is it Not Recommended: “The vaccine may prevent oocyst shedding but does not prevent infection. There is insufficient data to warrant routine use of this vaccine. Infection in puppies and kittens is often sublinical. Most animal strains of Giardia duodenalis are not infective to an immunocompetent human host.”

Possible Reasons to Use it: It can reduce ocyst (the infective form) shedding. For some pets that are re-self-infecting or infecting other, this vaccine may help aid with the treatment of disease. Some pets at high risk of exposure or who have had severe clinical effects from Giardia (severe bloody diarrhea) may benefit from this vaccine”””. 

Most Giardia Infections Are Milder & Asymptomatic. If So, They Are Normally Unrecognized Or Arguably Better Left Untreated, If Having Become Symptomatic, Manifesting Primarily A Milkshake Type Diarrhea, Normally Characterized Initially By Foul Smelling & Mucus, Gas, Lethargy, & Progressing To Dehydration, Poor Coat Quality, Weight Loss, Vomiting, Possible Death. All Reasons To Head To Your Dvm’s With A Fresh Uncontaminated Stool Sample. If Tested Positive, Normally Vet Will Prescribe A (3-5) Day Regimen Of A Most Often Safe AntiParasitic “Panacur” (Febendazole). Alternatively Or Sometimes In Combination, “Flagyl” (Metronidazole) Is Sometimes Prescribed In More Advanced Infections, However Should Be Avoided If possible As It Is Linked To Potential Severe Toxic Side Effects, Liver Damage. Giardia Check Should Always Be Included In Your Standard Anti Parasitic Stool Tests.

PARASITES PREVENTIONS – HEARTWORM; – (MOSQUITOS):  The Questionable Majority Consensus In The Drug Manufacturers Driven World Of Veterinary Medicine, Is That Traditional Chemically Manufactured Heartworm Preventatives (Which Are With Out A Doubt CERTAIN Various Degrees Of Low Dosage Toxins) May Outweigh The Risk Of Potential Devastating Heartworm Disease… Of Course These Folks Primary Concern Is Lining Their Pockets According To Hap Hazard Unreliable Statistics, Not Having Consideration For Less Lucrative & Much Safer Natural Alternatives, And Not The Specific Long Term Immune System Destruction That Such Regimental Toxins Will Most Definitely Toll On Your Pugs Life, Without A Doubt!!!

WTL Is Quite Adamantly Against Continual Regimental Traditional Chemically Manufactured Heartworm Prevention’s…  Without A WTL Dissertation Here, Please See The “Healthy Pets” Web Site Link Article Just Below Authored By  Dr. Becker, And The “Dogs Naturally” Web Site Link Articles Posted Just Below… 

Which Shares The WTL Opinion That “A Much Better/Safer/Healthier Alternative To Every Month Traditional Chemically Manufactured Heartworm Preventatives Is A Once Every (4-6) Months Starting @ (6) Months Of Age, Heartworm Test, Instead!!! If You Or Your Pug Live Or Spend Time In A Geographical Area Where Mosquitos Or Other Pests Particularly Ticks Are Prevalent, Your Pug Should Be On A Once Every (4-6) Months Starting @ (6) Months Of Age, (SNAP-4Dx) Test Or Accuplex Test, Both Of Which Check For Lyme Disease, Ehrlichiosis, & Anaplasmosis, Along With Heartworm… Then Should Your Pug Ever Test Positive For Heartworm They Would Only Be In The Larvae Stages And Easily Treatable With The Same Heartwom Preventatives, But Only If It Ever Becomes Necessary And Not As A Life Long Regimental Low Dose Poison To Your Pug!!!

As A Further Common Sense Preventative, Avoid The Seasonal Days Outside When Mosquitos Are Evident & Consider The Use Of Much Safer “Non Chemically Manufactured Products” Such As The “Natural Mosquito Deterrent Products” That Are Carried By Companies Such As “Only Natural Pet Store”…

Another Factor To Consider Is The Pug Breed Possibly (Particularly Herding Breeds) Can Carry A Gene Defect Which Predisposes  Particular Sensitivity To Certain Drugs Causing Adverse Drug Reactions And Particularly Breeds With A Certain Gene Heritage Of The MDR1 (Also Called ABCB1) Or “White Footed Gene”… This Gene Being Carried (According To Prominently Well Known DVM Judy Morgan, Indicates That The Pug Will Be “Multi Drug Resistant” Which Allows Foreign Chemicals To Build Up To Toxic Levels In The Pugs Brain, Whereas Otherwise Without The “White Footed Gene” Being Present, Neurotoxins Would Normally Be Prevented From Entering Into The Brain… See The “Naturally Healthy Pets” Web Site Link Just Below…

ALERT YOUR DVM: Precaution-  Due To The (MDR1/ABCB1) Gene In “White Footed Canines” Being Concernable, If Particularly Heartworm Or Flea/Tick Chemically Manufactured Preventative Meds Are Ever Considered Necessary By Anyone Caring For An Adopted WTL Pug, Because We Do Have One Particular Heritage Line With All White Feet (although this is typically not a concernable Breed & none of the few WTL Pugs ever tested were positive for MDR1) The Heartworm Preventative Product/s That Would Likely Be The Most Particularly Potentially Dangerous Would Be Any Products That Contain “Ivermectin” Or “Spinosad”… There Are Also Certain Other Drugs That Should Be Avoided With Canines Having The Possible “White Footed Gene”, Which Your DVM Should Be Already Aware Of Such As: Certain Drugs Used To Treat Cancer, Pain, Parasites, Bacterial Infections, Diarrhea, Vomiting, & Anxiety, As Well As Pre-Anesthetic Drugs… For Surety, Your DVM Can Test Your Particular Pug For The MDR1 Gene Being Present Or Not

Drs. David Knight and James Lok of the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine, addressing recommendations for year round meds, warned:  “The practice of some veterinarians to continuously prescribe monthly chemoprophylaxis exaggerates the actual risk of heartworm transmission in most parts of the country and unnecessarily increases the cost of protection to their clients.”

So, is the change to year round meds all about money? Or is there more to this story?

How Heartworms Infect Dogs: It’s Not Easy!

Well, now that we’ve looked behind the scenes of the heartworm industry, let’s take a look at how the heartworms themselves (called Dirofilaria immitis) do business. Seven steps must be completed to give your dog a dangerous heartworm infestation:

(Please See The “Dogs For Dogs” Web Link Dicrectly Below For The Full Article)…..

WEB SITE LINK: http://www.dogs4dogs.com/blog/2009/05/13/heartworm-medication-safety/

WTL’S FINAL TAKE: Traditional Chemically Manufactured Heartworm Preventatives Should Be Avoided At All Costs… In Lieu Of, Provide Pug Every (4-6) Months Starting @ (6) Months Of Age, (SNAP-4Dx) Test Or Accuplex Test, Both Of Which Check For Lyme Disease, Ehrlichiosis, & Anaplasmosis, Along With Heartworm…

Natural Heartworm Preventions Such As: https://www.onlynaturalpet.com/products/Only-Natural-Pet-HW-Protect-Herbal-Formula/999068.aspx

Should Be Considered If You Reside In Or Visit A Highly Mosquito Prevalent Or Endemic Infested Geographical Location And If Your Pug Is To Frequent The Outdoors Along With You In The Early Morning And Later Afternoon/Evenings During Warmer Mosquito Borne Months…

According To The Prevalent Mosquito Map In The United States, There Are Only (13) States to Be Highly Concerned… This Map Is Provided In The “Mercola”& “Dogs Naturally” Web Site Link Article Posted Above (None Of Which Are Located In The Northeast States Of The Continental US)…

PARASITES PREVENTIONS – CANINE BASIC DEWORMING: WTL Performs A Very Aggressive Early Life Stages De-worm Regimen On All Of Our Pug Puppies From Appx. (4 Weeks) Of Age Through Appx. (16 Weeks) Of Age, Normally At Every 2 Week Intervals…. We Use

A Weight Proper Dose Of Pyrantel Paomate Which Rids The Pups Of Any Potential For The 2 Most Common Canine Worm Parasites: Roundworm & Hookworm… At Appx. (8 Weeks) Of Age, In Lieu Of The Pryantel Paomate We Provide The Pups With A Weight Proper Dose Of Panacure In A 3 Consecutive Day Regimen, Which Rids The Pups Of Any Potential For The Next 2 Most Common Worm Parasites: Tapeworm & Whipworm… Hence This Standard Puppy Parasite De-worm Regimen Rids The Pups Of Any Potential For The 4 Most Common Canine Worm Parasites: Roundworm; Hookworm; Tapeworm; Whipworm…

After (4 Months Of Age) We Use A Weight Proper Dose Of Pyrantel Paomate As An Ongoing Preventative Protocol, Administered Once Per Every Month For Life…  A Good Known To Be safe Over The Counter Substitute For Pug Owners Is A Product Called “PRO-WORMER-2”, And An Over The Internet Counter Source Is Dr. Fosters, Web Link Below…

Secondarily Starting At (12 Months Of Age) We Use A Weight Proper Dose Of “D-Worm Combo” (Pyrantel Paomate/Praziquantel) Broad Spectrum Canine De-Wormer, As An Ongoing “Clean Out’ Preventative Protocol, Administered Once Annually Primarily As A Tapeworm “Clean Out”… In Flea Prone Or Rodent Activity Environments, Suggested Use Would Be Twice Annually, Once Every (6 Months)… DO NOT USE At The Same Time As With Any Other De-Wormer Such As The Pyrantel Paomate Listed Above, Skip That Dose… We Have Safely Used This Product For Years & Recommend This Clean Out Therapy Only To Ensure Pug Owners That May Not Be Alert To Specifically Devastating Tape Worm Symptoms, Just As A Prevention Although The Main Ingredients Main Use “Praziquantel”, Is More Commonly Used To Treat An “Already Confirmed Tape Worm Infestation”… This Product may Be Used As Early As (6 Months Of Age) With An Already Confirmed Tape Worm Infestation, Consult Your (DVM)… Neither Of The Above De-Worm Regimens Include Any Heartworm Prevention.     

Lastly But Not Least, It Is Highly Recommended That You Have Your Own Private (DVM) Perform A Fecal Sample At Every (6 Month Intervals) In Conjunction With Your Quarterly Recommended Heartworm & Lyme Disease Blood Tests!!! In The Scenario Of A Positive parasite Test Result Your (DVM) Will Up And/Or Adjust The Standard Prevention Regimen For A Short Term Or Perhaps Even Just One Dose, case specific…

Be Alert To Parasite Worm Symptoms In Your pug: Watery Eyes; Bloat; Weight Loss; Vomiting: Dry Shoddy Appearing Coat; Thirst; Hunger; Diarrhea Perhaps Bloody; Potentially Actual Visible Certain Type Worm Parasites; Etc… Never Provide Any De-Worm Meds To An Apparent Already Ill Pug Without First Consulting With Your Own Private Hired (DVM’S)…

GENERAL SOCIALISM – DISEASE & PARASITES PREVENTIONS: Always Keep Pug Puppies Socialism Or Contact With Other Unknown Animals Especially Canines Or Never With Any Potential Rodents As Minimal Or “Kids Glove” As Is Possible Prior To Having Completed Their Puppy Vaccination Protocol And Be Selective Even Afterwards To Socialism With Only Known Canines Of Friends And Family Which You Can Investigate Their Animals Health And Vaccination/s Conditions, Etc… Refrain As Much As Possible From Public Places With Pug On The Ground & Especially Any Canine, Rodent, Other Various Animals Public Areas Such As Boarding Kennels, Pet Walks, Pet Stores, Roadway Rest Stops, Picnic Areas, Woodsy Or High Grass Areas, Standing Puddles Or Bodies Of Water, Other Animal Feces Or Urine And Other Animals Feces Or Urine Locations, (Fire Hydrants LOL), Other Animals Blood Or Saliva, Dead Carcass, Your Own Vets Only When Necessary and Not Socially With Other Animals And/Or Put Down On The Floor , Etc. When You Have To Take Your Pug To The Vets Keep Pug Off The Floor & Use A Towel Or Blanket From Home On The Exam Table…

Most All Canine Or Other Species Bacterias, Viruses, Disease, Parasites, Etc. That Are Transmittable Or Contracted By Your Canine Either From Direct Or Indirect Contact, Are Typically From The Above Such Sources…

DENTAL DISEASE – PREVENTIONS: There Is A Vaccine (Uncommonly Known Or Used) Designed To Help Prevent Peridontitus A Bacteria That causes Bone Damage That Is Commonly Seen With Periodontal Disease… There Is No Comment Found Or Referred To By The AAHA… However The Standard WTL Recommended Protocol Which Adjoins Typical Veterinary Standards Is To Practice A Steady Proper Diet Regimen With A Base Standard Of Appropriate Manufactured Dry Kibble, (WTL Recommends Taste Of The Wild Age Appropriate Canine Products Line), At Least One Annual Check Up/Exam With Your Local Chosen Private (DVM’S), Dental Cleanings And Extractions As Recommended, And Regimental Cleanings By Use Of Proper “Kong” Chew Toys, Gentle Home Brushing’s, (Good Luck With That!), And Age Appropriate (Grain Only) Chews, Only To Be Introduced After Pug Is Over One Year Of Age…

Most Folks Are Not Aware However, “Periodontal Disease” Ranks Very High Among The Leading Catalysts To A Pugs Early Demise Due To Their Dental Frailty Caused By Being A “Brachycephalic” Canine Breed…

DO NOT EVER Use Human Tooth Paste On Your Pug Due To Many Containing The Deadly Toxic To Canine Chemical Known As XYLITOL…

DO NOT EVER Use Pig Ears, Home Salvaged Or Processed Pet Bones, Rawhides, Stuffed Toys, Hoofs, Any Type Of Processed Or Flavored Animal Parts Whatsoever!!!

SPAY / NEUTER PUG CARE GUIDELINES: A Full Comprehensive & Complete Version Of The WTL Spay/Neuter Agreement can be Found And is Presented To Our PAO’s Within The WTL Pug Take Home Health Care Pkge And Associated Contract Documents…

Spay/Neuter: It is Imperative for Pugs best short & long term health benefits, to have your Pug spayed/neutered, In the case of a puppy, WTL’S recommended spay/neuter time frame is to be accomplished usually between the ages of (9-18 months old):

Pug to be spayed/neutered by age date range: __(9 to 18 months is acceptable) *** (12 to 15 months is Preferred) & only after 1st Estrus/females), Upon the PAO’s private DVM’s discretion, unless the DVM presents a legitimate Clinical Health concern for Pug’s Health benefit, to not spay/neuter, or requests for legitimate Clinical reason, a later date change alteration in writing. WTL will then either approve of the preclusion or date change alteration back in writing within (72 hours), or possibly opt further discussion with the DVM prior to automatic approval_A date range previous to 9 months old is not acceptable other than for a legitimate DVM diagnosed Clinical reason, or in order to prevent a legitimate suspected forthcoming health threat based on the DVM’s Clinical observation. In the event of the DVM’s claim to a Clinical Emergency, any treatment as advised by the DVM is to be discussed solely with PAO, and not WTL in order to save time. The DVM & PAO are to determine the best treatment plan & administer such treatment immediately upon discretion of the DVM. WTL shall be notified in writing at the (PAO’s Responsibility), On Contract Page #17,  in writing directly from the DVM, with endorsement & any attachments, a brief report including the cause of the event, along with end results, within (14 days) post occurrence…/

In the case of a still intact Pug that when adopted is already over the minimum age of 9-12 months there will be 2 spay/neuter options, case specific: The first being that WTL have the spay/neuter performed prior to the adoption by one of our licensed NYS Veterinarians, as further explained in our contract/s above at our standard fee of $275.00… The second being that the PAO have your chosen Veterinarian perform the spay/neuter within (30) days post adoption presuming that the PAO’S DVM discovers a clinical reason as to wait longer or not to perform an alteration at all… All other particulars are the same as the paragraph directly above regarding a puppy’s spay/neuter requirements…  

Spay/neuter helps to prevent potentially hazardous health situations, unsafe/unwanted pregnancies, Ovarian & Testicle Cancers, Testicle Cancer, Uterus Infections, UTI’s, Pyometra, certain other  physical, disease, or infectious related health problems from occurring to your Pug down the road… However, most modern nationally renown veterinary experts agree, that Spay/neuter prior to 9 months old is considered the #1 cause for later on in life incontinence, a considerable relation to Hormone underdevelopment related life long Health problems, the development of certain Immune System deterioration & deficiencies, Hip Dysplasia, Bone Cancer,  (CCL) Ligament Injuries,  Abnormal Bone Growth… Increased incidence of Aggression, Noise Phobias, Fear, Adverse Vaccine Reactions, & certain other life long ailments… Also spay/neuter at too early of age substantially increases the more likelihood of potential life threatening reaction/s to anesthesia or after surgery NSAID’s, pain & inflammatory meds or Antibiotics, etc!

WTL strongly Suggests That you Have your (DVM’S) Perform Pre-Op Anasthesia Blood Work…

***** (NOTE: WTL has experienced extreme post op reactions to certain NSAID’s particularly to Rimadyl & much lessor to Metacam or Meloxicam)

WTL therefore recommends pain / anti-inflams use on Pug only when absolutely necessary, with extreme caution)

=====================================================

Registration & Pedigree Information

Walk The Line Pug’s and Hard Rock Farm’s Noble Giants litters are eligible for official registration based on their purebred heritage. Registrations may be processed through AKC Kennel Club. (United States) the United Kennel Club, (Internationally) CKC Kennel Club, (Canada) or the National General Kennel Club (China), (standard restricted use).

Registration papers are included as a standard part of our Puppy Adoption Packages, provided upon initial request and in compliance with the terms outlined in the case-specific WTL or HRF Adoption Contract. In instances where a spay/neuter agreement is required, registration documents will only be released upon full compliance with that agreement.

Once the adoptive family has submitted all required documentation and the puppy has reached the appropriate age (per the adoption agreement), registration papers are sent via regular U.S. Mail. Additionally, full pedigrees are available upon request and assessed case-by-case for an additional fee.

Commitment to Purebred Excellence

Our canines are strictly purebred, coming from bloodlines that are exceptionally healthy, free of disease, and devoid of congenital defects. Despite common misconceptions, hybrids and mixed breeds often introduce unpredictable and undesirable genetic complications. Only through a well-orchestrated and conscientious purebred breeding program can we ensure the healthiest, most immune-efficient, and genetically sound offspring.

Due to the widespread misuse and irresponsible breeding practices common in the industry, we rarely offer registration papers with breeding rights. However, unrestricted registration may be granted under special circumstances—reserved only for individuals who demonstrate, through our detailed Canine Adoption Application process, either a sound reason or a proven record of responsible breeding experience.

~ Testimonial by Lynda & Kevin Rouser, Massachusetts ~
“We started working with Walk The Line a year ago on the pre-adoption of two puppies. The level of attention and devotion they showed was unparalleled, as if we were the only adoptive family with whom they were working. Their knowledge about the breed and best health care practices are unsurpassed. The gallery was a constant source of delight and amazement as we watched our girls grow from newborns to the 10-wk old wonders we picked up in August, 2012. We could not be more pleased with our decision to pursue an adoption through Walk The Line; our girls are remarkably healthy, spunky, sweet-natured, and simply gorgeous. It was well worth the eight-hour drive to pick them up, and they were gracious enough to spend as much time as we needed to review the comprehensive binder and materials that are included as part of their adoption package. We do not hesitate in recommending and/or referring others to Walk The Line. Thanks for bringing so much joy into our lives! ” 

The best of the best! Lynda
