WE"RE EXPECTING!!
It's that time of year again!! Cricket is happily getting ready to be a mama (If you haven't met her yet, she's the cutie in the photo above!)
This will be Cricket's third litter with Nougan (only one per year!) ~ If history repeats itself it will be AMAZING (Their last litter was truly iconic and surprised us all with the puppies becoming adorable little international celebrities)
I am very late in announcing the pregnancy, we have been busy with so much new interest regarding colored pugs that it made it just a little too easy to procrastinate. The babies are due on September 1st, only a few weeks away, and all going well the puppies will be ready to go home to their new families in early November! We will be getting Cricket a prenatel exam for an exact puppy count late next week, so check back for updates soon!!
Our list is getting very full already, but at this time we are still accepting names for the waiting list. If you are interested in being added, please let me know asap. *link to contact form*
Update 5/2/2011
We have 2 puppies available, the brindle male and the small fawn male. Please contact for more information. Photos below:

Two puppies left! one fawn and one brindle. They're both so adorable! We have just moved the entire litter into a large play area set up in our living room, where they are learning to run around and play with us (the kids, too) and eachother, and are also learning to use the piddle pads (we try to make sure they are piddle pad trained when they go home to their families, it helps so much in potty training). They are showing strong confidence, and all have a very sweet, affectionate nature, loving to be held and cuddled. Puppies from Demi's litter will be ready to go home on May 7th, 2011.

Demi's Update
Fist of all, she is doing wonderful!! Her pregnancy is progressing perfectly, she is happy, healthy and comfortable although her belly is growing at a high rate of speed. She has been feeling more affectionate the last week or so, and rather than wanting to play or run, has been spending much of her time wanting to be cuddled.
Demi is starting to investigate cupboards and secret places around the house, looking for a good place to nest, so we have made her a new private "bedroom" by the fireplace where she can take quiet naps in peace, she is loving it! Soon we will move her bed upstairs and prepare a whelping area for her to get comfortable in.
We plan to have xrays taken on March 5th, to count puppies and make sure everyone is healthy!
Below are a couple of little pictures we took of her a few days ago...

Well all of our babies here in the Gamble home are spoken for and have families eagerly awaiting their arrival
**BUT**
My dear friend Tami from Pugs of Pedroia has 2 babies up for adoption! They are cousins to my babies.
The parents are Preston (Nougan's daddy) and Bella (Cricket's sister)
These puppies are absolutely beautiful! They don't come better than this. They're plump (so cute) healthy and totally spoiled rotten! I have posted pics of them below. If anyone is interested in being considered as an adoptive family for one of these cuties you can contact Tami directly at
pugs of pedroia or email me and I will forward it right over to her.
Update: *Adopted!*

Well it has been a very fast two weeks!! All of the Puppies are growing SO fast! They are incredibly strong and inquisitive for their age. They are fat and happy, Cricket's babies are always plump like pumpkins. She is such a good mama! We are really enjoying this time with them while they are little and going through thefirst milestones.
***ONE BABY LEFT***
All of the babies are spoken for except for one little boy (and that is my fault because I had mistakenly thought he was already spoken for) He is a brindle cutie! We think he will be an Apricot Brindle but it is a bit too soon to tell for sure. adoption fee is $1500, please call or email to inquire.
Here are some photos of the puppies I took today~ Enjoy!
The photo gallery requires at least Flash version 9.0.28.

**It's official** we for sure have at least ONE rare Reverse Brindle boy! He is very dark, and perfect in every
way. We have nicknamed him Tiny, he is going to be very petite. He is a total sweetie. As of today he is still available, adoption fee on RB is $2000, subject to approval. 9/26- adopted

Update: 9/20/2010
Last Thursday Cricket gave birth to nine lovely puppies!
*5 boys, 4 girls*
They are all absolutely gorgeous! Mama and babies are doing well! As of today 3 brindle boys are available, though this could change. Please email with any
questions here
3 days old
It seems that she smells something very interesting....a good photo op for the tummy since she was holding still!08/16/2010
My Goodness that's quite a belly she is getting already! Cricket is exactly 4 weeks along today, and we are beginning to wonder exactly what she's cooking up in there! She is showing a bit earlier than expected. She is very happy, and had a wonderful time digging up my herbs this morning to make a cozy sunbathing spot. She loves the smell of Basil. We will be getting ultrasounds and Xrays in just a couple of weeks, I will update again as soon as we know a little more....
