The Pug is a small breed dog, who probably originated in China. The Pug has a large, round, heavily wrinkled forehead. He has a short muzzle with a slight underbite. Pugs may be silver, apricot, fawn, or black. They stand 10-11inches tall and weigh 14-18 pounds.
The Pug, although somewhat sensitive is a very affectionate and loving dog. He is good with children because he is a very sturdy and hardy breed. Pugs are very intelligent, yet can be stubborn at times. They are a very lively breed and do well indoors. They like to take long walks, but caution must be used in extreme heat, because they are prone to breathing problems and tire quickly. Adequate water should be available at all times due to their tendency to become overheated. Go to our Puppies Available link to see if there are any pug puppies at this time.
