Hi, I am so sorry to hear about that. I represent a customer who purchased a sick dog from Anne Wasserman aka Meshugga Kennels of Ringwood NJ and are looking for other people who had a similar experience. Would you please contact me if possible at 631-707-3544, it could truly help get this women to stop breeding and selling these dogs in such a horrible environment.
 
I am currently looking for a pug and looking into getting one from Anne. Please fill me in. I just searched for the kennel with her name and all of this came up.

After reading all of these posts, there is no way I am going here. However, can anyone advise me of any GOOD pug breeders that they have used. My last pug just passed away at 15 1/2 and I adopted her. The breeder I used prior is no longer breeding.
 
Meshuga pugs and labradors

I just lost my pug Sasha - she was 15 yos. I started pounding on websites two days ago and found this breeder. She sent pics an gave me pricing. She is the only breeder in 200 miles of location that has pugs available. The puppies look much older than what she indicated to me. Bottom line, I talked to another breeder who said stay away!!! Today, I found this thread. Someone should report this women to the AKC! She is listed on their website. Do SOMETHING! I haven't purchased a puppy from her but I have heard that she brokers from Texas and switches paperwork frequently. The rant here is helpful and I appreciate the warning... but now its time to get this woman formally investigated before this chain gets any longer.

Hey Mimi17,

If you are still looking for a pug breeder I would recommend Lisa Cooch (Pony Tail Kennel). I found them during my exhaustive search for a breeder in NJ (after passing on Annie Wasserman - BEFORE I even found this thread). I have also received a good references from someone who recently purchased a pug from Lisa. I will be picking up my new baby in/around 5/31/17. Here is the website:P O N Y T A I L S K E N N E L - Breeding Beagles, Pugs, Boston Terriers, French Bulldogs, Boggles, and Puggles
 
Thank gosh I started googling this woman. This is so sad! Looking for a pug breeder in Maryland area!

I'm not so sure that is a reputable breeder either. There are a few red flags I see right away, but most of all is selling mixed breeds. Responsible breeders never breed designer dogs or mixes.
 
My mom purchased a pup through this horrible woman. We had just put down our chocolate lab after 15 years and my Mom thought she was doing a wonderful thing by getting us a pup for Christmas. She did not know how to really do a check on this business or Ann Wasserman who gives out animals who are sick and miss handled from mills. We drove from Cape May to Haskell NJ to get our pup and was told after getting into town almost 4 hours later to meet her at a different location. We pulled up at a used car place...should have been the first red flag. We walked in to the office and Ann was there with two pugs and a dog that looked nothing like the pictures sent to my mom. All involved looked like a hot mess and even though this wasn’t supposed to be her place of employment but a used car lot office it reeked of urine and feces. I asked to see pictures of the pups mom and dad and she couldn’t produce anything, she had paperwork showing vet care/check up but I have since found these were false. I felt uncomfortable and said so. Her mannerisms were off and the care of the dogs for a reputable place...on top of having to meet at a closed car lot and no other pups to pick from; no record of the parents. Ann got a bit of an attitude when I hesitated and I felt pressured because of the ”gift” from my mom; the long ride to get there and the fact that while I was sure this woman was not a good person this pup needed a loving home. So we took her. We got home and gave her to my son and daughter and they were instantly in love. Two days later Estrella (the pup) wouldn’t eat which is definitely not a lab trait and I took her to an emergency vet office. She tested positive for parvovirus. I sat in the waiting room at the vets office after she died 3 days later looking at meeting minutes from the HOA where Ann W. lives talking about so many counts of animal abuse and cruelty and the smell and waste coming from her home. Then I found this site amongst others. How is this low life able to continue to be around animals? My husband was still trying to deal with her because she seemed so apologetic and said she would make this right. I think he was thinking more about easing the pain my kids were in over the obvious ******** this woman was spewing. Even after I showed him all of the posts and information readily available about her he thought she would do the right thing. Please do your homework before getting a dog. Just google Ann Wasserman and you will get all the information you need about what kind of person she is And all of the poor animals and poor people that have been hurt and heartbroken because of her.
