Do I need a licence to advertise puppies?
In England you need a dog breeding licence from your council if you breed three or more litters in 12 months or breed and sell dogs as a business, and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own schemes. Licensed breeders show their licence number and issuing council on every advert. Puppies must be at least eight weeks old before they go to new homes.
Is my listing already here?
We add licensed breeders from councils' public registers. Search for your kennel name; if it is listed you can claim it and edit everything.
Using a Puggle stud dog
A first-cross Puggle litter has a Pug or Beagle sire, and bitch owners will want to see his registration and the tests his own breed calls for. A Pug stud should hold a current Respiratory Function Grading result, renewed every two years while he is used for breeding, plus an eye examination within the 12 months before mating, a PDE result and ideally a BVA/KC hip score. The RFG Scheme needs an RKC registration certificate, and the RKC advises against breeding from a dog graded 3. A Beagle stud should have DNA results for Lafora's disease and NCCD, plus FVIID, IGS and MLS. The RKC inbreeding calculator can show a registered sire's own coefficient of inbreeding (COI), but the RKC holds no pedigree data for crossbreeds, so a Puggle stud's owner should keep careful mating records. Agree the fee and terms in writing, and list your dog on our Puggle stud dogs page.
Health tests for a Puggle stud
A Puggle has no RKC health tests of its own. The RKC's advice for anyone breeding a cross is to use the screening schemes and DNA tests recommended for both parent breeds. For the Pug, the Good Practice tests are a breathing assessment for brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS) and an eye examination; Best Practice adds a DNA test for Pug dog encephalitis (PDE), reported as a risk level rather than a definite result, and hip scoring. For the Beagle, DNA tests for Lafora's disease and neonatal cerebellar cortical degeneration (NCCD) are Good Practice, with three more DNA tests at Best Practice level. The RKC describes the Beagle conditions as autosomal recessive: a dog is affected only if it inherits a faulty copy from each parent, while a carrier shows no signs but can pass the variant on. This matters most when Puggles are bred together or back to a parent breed. The Respiratory Function Grading Scheme covers a list of breeds and needs the dog's RKC registration certificate, so it applies to the Pug parent rather than the puppies; the BVA eye scheme is open to crossbreeds. On Breed Watch the Pug is in Category 3 and the Beagle in Category 1. No test can guarantee a puppy's future health.
