pug·gle (pŭg'gle) n. a small mixed breed of dog created by mating a pug and beagle; thereby producing an energetic hound having: a thickset body; a short-haired, smooth coat of fawn, tan, and black coloring; a deeply wrinkled forehead; short legs; a curled tail; and drooping ears. |
Size
Puggles grow to be 15-30 lbs. and approximately 13-15 inches at the shoulder. |
Coat
Their coat consists of short hairs. Puggles come in a wide range of colors. Fawn/Tan puggles are the most common, but some are black, white, or tri-colored. Second generation puggles take on more of the white and tan or black, tan, and white coloring. |
Character
Puggles are sweet-tempered, playful, energetic, intelligent, social, and affectionate. A puggle is a great companion. They are also very curious dogs. |
Temperament
This breed gets along well with children, other dogs, and other household pets. Puggles are very friendly and like to show you. |
Care Puggles require low grooming maintenance. Daily walks or a nice size area to play is advised. They do need to get their exercise as they have energy. |
Activity Puggles have a good amount of energy and love to play. They enjoy going on walks and running around. Puggles also love their downtime. They love to cuddle up to you on the couch or in bed. |
Training Puggles are also fairly easy to train. Puggles can learn all basic commands including: sit, down, stay, settle, take it, leave it, fetch, roll over, and come. Potty training can be challanging at times. The best way to train a puggle is with reward and repetition as they can be stubborn. |
Shedding Puggles do shed moderately. Their short hair and smaller size seem to help. It is advised to brush your puggle to remove excess hair. |
Barking Most puggles do bark like any other dog breed. Some are very quiet and don't bark much. Some young puppies bark when they are left alone in their crates. |
Allergies A Puggle is not a hypoallergenic dog. If you are allergic to another type of dog you may be allergic to a puggle. |
Howling Some Puggles do howl on occasion. They can inherit this trait from the beagle. They can do this when they get real excited. |
