One of the oldest known breeds of domesticated dog in the world, the Pug has long been a favored pet of nobility and standing. With his noticeably round head, double-curled tail, and wrinkled face, he has charmed the world for centuries and continues to do so. While he may be built like a little bruiser, all it takes is one look in those soft brown eyes to tell you that this little guy is definitely a lover, not a fighter.
The Pug is the ideal pet for those who don't have a lot of time to spend taking their dog on long walks or down to the dog park every day. Short of leg, a brief walk to go do his business is generally sufficient for the Pug, though he will most likely try and engage you in a game of tug-o-war with a sock when he gets home. Exercise requirements for the Pug are minimal, as he's more fun being carried about or laying on your lap all day. Do make sure that you engage him in some playtime every day, however. Not only will it help the two of you bond, but it will also keep him from becoming a portly puppy.
The Pug's grooming requirements are predominantly associated with preventing infection. The wrinkles, while fetching, need daily washing and drying to maintain good health. Do take great care in this pursuit as Pugs are susceptible to corneal abrasions. Many well intentioned Pug owners attempt this task with more zeal than is advisable.
The Pug's coat is short and will need daily brushing to maintain his sleek and glossy coat. This is especially urgent in spring because the Pug seems to shed more hair than he grows!
