Did You Know…
*That the truest form of this breed began to arise in the 16th century in
China? They arrived in other parts of the world thru sailors from the
Dutch India Trading Co. that took this breed with them on their worldly
voyages.
*It’s believed that at some point in their evolution they mixed with
other small, compact dogs, such as the English Bulldog. Even Pugs get
lonely for canine companionship on their long salty trips if you know
what we mean.
*They tend to have minds of their own when it comes to training beyond
the basics, as they might exhibit an occasional stubborn streak.
*They tend to overheat, as their spunkiness at times tends to be greater
than their common sense. Hmmm, do Pugs have common sense? Were not sure,
but we do know they have spunkiness!
