Adoption Process📝

At Mel’s Pugs, we want every puppy to go to a loving home that’s the perfect match. Here’s how our adoption process works:

  1. Verbal Screening – We’ll start with a quick phone chat to ensure it’s a great fit for both you and one of our pups.

  2. Deposit & Info – Once approved, you’ll provide your contact information for our records and place a $100 non-refundable deposit (which also determines your pick order).

  3. Pick Your Puppy – When the puppies are born, we’ll contact you (based on your deposit order) so you can choose your pup.

  4. Stay Connected – We ask that you download WhatsApp, where we’ll send you weekly videos and updates of your growing puppy!

  5. Visit Your Puppy – You’re welcome to visit your puppy in person after they turn 4 weeks old.

  6. Final Payment & Pickup – When your puppy is 8 weeks old, the remaining balance is due (via Cash, Cash App, Zelle, or Venmo), and you’ll get to take your new best friend home!

    • Optional: You’re welcome to make payments ahead of time, as long as the full balance is paid by pickup.

  7. Puppy Pickup Day – You’ll receive your puppy pack, along with all vaccination and health records.

💛 Every puppy also comes with a one-year genetic health guarantee—because we’re committed to giving your pug the happiest, healthiest start possible.

Note: If the litter does not include the color or sex you requested, your deposit will be refunded in full.
