PureJoy Pugs

PureJoy Pugs, pug breeders in Kernersville, NC, serve Forsyth County and the Piedmont Triad near Greensboro. Founded by Karen Starnes, the kennel breeds pugs under American Kennel Club standards with regular health screenings, with all breeding adults screened for respiratory and eye conditions. Puppies grow up in a home environment where early socialization includes gentle handling and exposure to everyday sounds. Adult dogs live indoors as valued members of the family, enjoying regular walks and off-leash play in a secure, fenced yard.

Their foundation dogs have produced champions in conformation rings and companion events, reflecting a balanced approach to structure and temperament. Each puppy benefits from tailored feeding plans and routine veterinary checks, and they join their new families with clear veterinary records. Owners often comment on the calm, affectionate nature of their dogs and the ongoing support Karen provides through puppy milestones.
