About the Pug
The Pug is an ancient toy breed with origins in China, prized as a companion dog for royalty and later popularized in European courts. Known for its distinctive wrinkled, short-muzzled face, compact body, and curled tail, it is a charming, affectionate, and often comical breed that thrives on human companionship. Pugs are playful, sturdy little dogs with a loving, even-tempered disposition, but they can be prone to overheating and require attention to their facial wrinkles and weight.
