Introduction

Renowned for their wrinkly, short-muzzled face and curled tail, Pugs are charming companions with a big personality in a compact package. These small yet sturdy canines boast a playful and affectionate temperament, making them ideal family pets. Though they enjoy a good play session, Pugs are relatively low-energy dogs and can thrive in apartment living. Their expressive eyes and eagerness to please have won the hearts of many around the globe, but potential owners should note their need for regular cleaning due to facial folds.
