Pug

About

Pugs are a small dog breed known for their distinctive physical features, including a wrinkled face, short muzzle, and curled tail. Originating from China, they were popularized in Europe during the 16th century. Pugs have a compact, square body with well-developed muscles and a short, smooth coat that comes in various colors like fawn and black. Their personality is characterized by being sociable, gentle, and affectionate, making them excellent companion dogs. Pugs are ideal for apartment living due to their quiet nature and minimal exercise needs. They require moderate daily exercise but are generally laid-back. Pugs are intelligent but can be stubborn, so patient training is recommended. They are prone to health issues due to their brachycephalic nature, such as breathing difficulties and eye injuries. Despite these challenges, Pugs are loving and adaptable, thriving in various living situations with proper care and attention.
