I've currently got 3 pugs - 2 fawns and a black.
I cannot say this enough: DO NOT BUY FROM A PET STORE. DO NOT BUY FROM A BACKYARD BREEDER.
Go to REAL dog shows. Talk to the breeders there. If you don't want to ever show your dog, ask them if they have a pet quality puppy. Most GOOD breeders won't have anything available immediately. They will also require you sign a spay/neuter contract if it's a puppy quality pug.
One of my pugs is a champion's daughter. The other two are from backyard breeders. The difference is amazing.
There are also HUNDREDS of pugs in rescue groups. My two fawns are from rescue and the black from someone whose situation had changed. Tassy's pug is a rescue and she's adorable!!
They are very "needy" dogs. They don't like finding things to do, they want you to do things with them. They think they're 10X bigger than they really are. They will eat, and eat, and eat, and eat. I've not seen mine turn down ANYTHING. The first pug I had as a child didn't like pickles and lettuce and would eat an entire sandwich but leave the pickles and lettuce.
They are, IMO, the best dogs ever, but they DO need attention. If you can't offer that, or if you can't find a good breeder to get one from, wait until you can
