The pug is an ancient and consistently popular breed throughout its history. It is a wonderful companion dog for city dwellers.
Unlike other decorative breeds, pugs are calm and balanced. They do not have the “spoiled child” syndrome, which is often encountered when dealing with “ladies” dogs. If a pug wants your attention, he’ll just walk over and sit next to you.
The bloodline of the pug traces back to 400 B.C. China. Most of the Buddist Monks took the dogs as their pets in Tibetan Monasteries.
Fast forward to our current century, pugs are one of the most popular breeds with many celebrity owners. Moreover, this breed has once won the prestigious World Dog Show in 2004, which is one of the most difficult contents for dogs to win.
In terms of care and grooming, pugs are relatively easy to care for. They only need moderate daily exercise of around 15 to 30 minutes a day.
