It’s great how they have their heads tilted in opposite directions. So cute!
This is a very cute moment captured! The color and light is also nice, it gives the pic a nice effect. Do you have a wallpaper?
I don’t have a wallpaper yet, but you just inspired me to make one. Wallpaper coming later today!
I love your pugs! They are gorgeous:)
Interesting pug photos in case you havent seen these..
http://www.lapr.org/howl_photos.htm
Keep up the good work
Matt, what kind of cover do you have on the sofa? Go to Wal-Mart and get some of those inexpensive fabric backed vinyl tablecloths, or plastic shower curtain liners. They make good waterproof covers. Turn the tablecloth with the flannel side up then cover it with a sheet or blanket. I put one of those on the sofa bed when grandma spends the night. It works great and can go in the washing machine if they get wet. Those rotten stinkers. Why do they have to pee on the furniture?
The cover is a thick fabric i got at fabrixx a while back. Nothing really gets through it, so it’s ok — the sofa is not being ruined.
Gizmo hasn’t done anything to the sofa in a while.
Come over here and wash them in the laundry sink for free!! Your dogs might catch something nasty in the common tub. I’ll give you shampoo, towels too. You just have to clean up the mess and dog hair.
Why not give him breath mints, you give him whipped cream! Don’t they make pet bones for teeth and breath?
For “buffalo breath,” I use Oxyfresh products. You can see them at oxyfresh.com. Go to the pet products section. They have toothbrushes, toothpaste and my favorite, an oral hygiene solution that you just add to the water! How easy is that? It really works, too. Of course, brushing is best, but sometimes that just ain’t happening. Ya know what I mean?
If you place an order, please let them know that you were referred by distributor 180606370.
Thanks!

Hey, fun site and great pictures. Your pugs are very cute. I just added a bunch of photos of my pug Claude to my flickr photostream, http://flickr.com/photos/cnick/tags/pug. He is quite a clown – my girlfriend and I will be starting a blog about him soon.
the rescue we got our guy from endorses the belly bands and one of the leaders within the rescue is Doris Aldrich. She’s got champion pugs (I think one was 2005 BoB at Westminster) so my feeling is if it’s ok with Doris, it’s the best possible way to go.
Your pugs are absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know it’s just dog-faces, but they don’t actually look comfortable here.
Cool, thanks!
Gizmo and Gadget are champions too, but they retired after reaching champion, they didn’t rack up prestige points to go to the big shows.
People ask me if they’re “full” pugs sometimes, but really, they’re asking because they’re used to seeing scrawny non-show pugs.
heh, we’re a non=show pug family here and believe me, he’s far from scrawny. Unfortunately.
pugsnob:)
Postcard? Definitely!! They look more adorable then they usually do!!
No advice about the bands unfortunately.
We’ve got a little girl Boston Terrier. She enjoys the top of the couch and we often find her standing or sitting on our nightstands as well. We’re thinking of getting her a little sister after our June 4 wedding – and we think a pug would be a good match. Gizmo & Gadget are so adorable!
Oh, I am so sorry for your loss. I know firsthand how difficult it is to lose a part of your family. She will be waiting for you at the Rainbow Bridge.
Gadget is so cute, I have never seen such a cuddly looking pug. He’s like a teddy bear!
yeah they are!
hey, I ordered one of your eurostickers from cafepress. Can’t wait to put it on the car
Those stickers are great, everyone should pass the word along as to where to purchase them!
thank you! i’m working on more stickers and things to ago along w/ the current sticker
And the new site design is nice too.
A beauty! In some of the shots, his ears are tied — what’s that?
[...] me about why the pugs’ ears are taped. Well, I went and created a little page about taping pug ears Posted in Pug | By matt [...]
Oh, that is a beautiful ring. I like to put my necklaces on my pugs and let them model. Too bad they can’t wear that ring!!
Congratulations!! How exciting – Are Gizmo and Gadget helping with all the planning?
That ring is awesome! good taste!
Thanks! Gizmo really, really wants to wear the ring, but Tricia won’t let him.
The poll isn’t fair…how in the world could I pick one over the others? They’re all precious!!
Website of the Day: Urban Pug
Chewie favorite Pug Life website.
Hello boys! How come you don’t wear belly bands so you can roam wherever you want to go?
Marvin, Pooh Bear and Sandie (3 spoiled doggies)
I’ve tried putting belly bands on them, but they always get out!
I have a website for my Pug Mylo at http://www.lifeofapug.blogspot.com. We recently found your site from http://www.ljcfyi.com and we love it!!! Your pugs are too sweet but then again, what pug isn’t? Great job on this blog!!!! Keep updating with those pictures = )
Nia & Mylo
pugs and kisses
Cool! You’ve got really great pictures of Mylo on your site. Mylo looks just like Indy, one of Tricia’s parents’ pugs. in this picture. I love it!
I also have a site, I saw your site on roythepug.com and because I was reading everyone else’s sites about their pugs, I had to create one for my pug. He’s a snarfer, he is hoping for a brother pug soon. We love reading about other pugs and their lives. Pugs are very photogenic.
Jessica & Samson
Love your site. My Husban and I have a pug named Roxy.
She is almost 2 years old. We belong to a Pug Meetup Group
that meets once a month at The jefferson Feed on Jefferson Hwy. I think that the next on is Aug.14. If you did not know about it, thought you would want to know. Hope to see your 2 Pugs there next month.
How cute! My dog does that too – always climbs behind me on the couch and either rests her head on mine, or becomes like a “wrap” with her feet over one shouder and her head on the other. Of course, she also weighs 50 pounds, so sometimes it gets a little uncomfortable
I do that on Mommy’s lap all the time but I hate it when she starts to play with my muzzle, (she thinks it’s real funny that they flap when I sleep).
Great website here… I am hooked. Fellow pug parent here, I am all over that “PUG” decal.
Gizmo, Do you listen to books on tape? Maybe you are learning Spanish or Italian or French or Chinese? You sure are pretty.
Gizmo you look pretty serious with those headphones!
gadget and gizmo are the cutest pugs I’ve ever seen!! I love them and the photos you’ve taken of them. Do you give referrals for breeders? I also saw the gadget is a father. Any more litters on the way? I’d love to have one of his relatives.
This is quite possibly the funniest thing I’ve ever seen!
I almost fell off my chair! This is TOO funny! I love how he leans to change direction, and how he looks like he’s LOVING it!
This is so funny!!! I am going to link to this from my blog!
Skateboarding Bulldog!
You have got to see this! A short film clip of a skateboarding bulldog!
I was laughing so hard when I was watching this… It is a must see!!!
…
What a cute photo!! I have added your blog to my blogroll. Feel free to add doggiewoggie.com to your list of dog sites.
Mommy does the same thing with me. After a bath, she takes me outside and wears her light colored clothing and uses the ‘Zoom Groom’ to brush my hair out. I love it because that brush massages me too! ARF ARF!
HEY — I resemble those remarks:)) These are my puggies!!! They are not lazy at all…well except during the day and at night:) We are from MN and my girls Gypsy & Shaili actually love doing agility and they each have over 60 titles to their names:)
Woo hoo!
Kelly
You two are so smart!!
Nothing wrong with a voluptuous pug is there? I get that a lot too and as the saying goes, the more bigger you are, more to love, something like that anyways..arf arf.
Your fellow pug,
Mylo
You guys must have the same CD that our mama has. She likes “It’s a Beautiful Life” but sings along to all of the songs. We don’t mind because she usually has the volume up loud enough we can’t hear her singing.
O my gosh, I just can’t get over how cuddly wuddly your pugs are! I love that picture of them! I just want to squeeze them! LOL.
Great Pug Blog!!
Karen
I love you Momo!
Love,
Mommy
I just found your site and LOVE it! Your pugs are so cute! I recently bought a brush called the furminator. It’s spendy, but I think well worth it. I use it on my pugs about 1x a week or every other week and it seems to cut down on the shedding. Their coat looks nicer too, better than when I use other brushes.
You have some great products in your Cafepress store.. anyway you will be selling a few of them on eBay?! I don’t own a credit card but got a pug-poop load of money in my paypal account.
Our prayers are with you and everyone in New Orleans. We’ve had our share of hurricanes over here but New Orleans is the worst possible place to get such a horrible storm.
So glad you are back on! Best wishes!
Glad everyone is okay! Can’t wait to hear what Gizmo and Gadget have been up to! P.S. I agree – Global Warming.
I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this picture! Their expressions are too adorable. PUGS RULE!
HEY, YOUR PUGS ARE BEAUTIFUL. HOPE ALL IS WELL. REALLY SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT WHATS GOING ON DOWN THERE. GOD BLESS, BE SAFE AND GOOD LUCK…….
These pugs are cute! You must be so excited!
What seasoning are you going to use? I suggest Teriyaki!!
What is a “temporarily permanent” house?
Temporarily permanent means that we’re staying her for about 3 months (til this semester is over, or we can return to new orleans, whichever comes later. probably the semester being over)
OH MY GOODNESS! They are precious! How do you ever manage to adopt them to another family? Is that the most difficult part? They’re adorable! Congratulations Ipsy!! And welcome home G&G!!!
A friend of mine bought a furminator and LOVES it! Please let us know what you think.
Beth, Marvin, Pooh Bear and Sandie Collie Girl
Was just looking at your photos…who is Ivan? He is beyond cute!
I don’t mean to inundate you with questions…I’ve read that smaller breeds, like Pugs, usually have to give birth via c-section. Is this the case?
Thank you.
Those two are so cute. How old is Ispy? One of our pugs that we rescued had some litters as a puppy but we don’t know anything about her history.
Beneful has a yummy weight control blend that Rocky likes. It is also nice because you can give them a little more (which they will of course love) but not worry about those little love handles as much. OR you can give them the same amount and let them loose a few pounds.
Cute Gizmo…they are at peace again, happy and content to have their “parents” back.
Too bad you won’t be in Philly around the 1st of the month b/c the 1st Saturday of each month is when the “Pug Meetup” is at a dog park in South Philly. Last month there were appx. 65 Pugs!!! I live about 1/2 hour outside the city and lived there for 3 years while I was attending college. There are plenty of museums, the Art Museum (where Rocky ran up the steps) and the Mutter Museums which is the forensic science museum, pretty cool stuff, skeletons of a giant and a midget…
South St is always a good time, lots of shopping and “different” stores….
There are lots of Puggies in the city so hopefully you will get to see a few!
Hope you enjoy my Philly….
Glad you are getting settled!
We have a Gizmo too – he’s trying to sit on the keyboard in fact. We’ll mail you a profile!
Thank goodness for Roxy! It is so sad that not everyone – or everypug – made it out alive. How very sad. We’re glad Gizmo, Gadget and Roxy are still here though!!
That picture is amazing. You have to send to this site: Dog walker NYC website with NYC dog walkers, NYC animal welfare resources and NYC dog blog . There always new pictures throughout it. Good luck and stay well!
Those crazy pugs! My Otis will also jump in any car that has an open door… he loves going for drives!
Hey, they look too young to have a license…
We are trying to talk our Aunt Lynn to send in photos of her pugs – Piggie, Chance and Jack. They are cute and fun to play with. We think puggles are cute too but not as cute as pugs. Our Mama LOVES pugs but knows that they can have some expensive medical problems so hasn’t adopted one … yet. We have a pretty full house now though so the cute puggers will have to wait. We love checking in on Gizmo and Gadget though and send puppy hugs to them!
I too, have seen puggles and they are cute. But that long curly tail kinda gives me the heebie-jeebies. I’ll take a regular little puglet any day.
Pugs rule! There’s NO WAY any puggles could be as cute as Gadget.
I had a Canon Powershot A70 and I’m not sure if that is better or worse than what you had… After 2 years and good care it suddenly developed an error 18 which means that the shutter apparatus decided to no longer close in my case. Apparently there is a class action suit against Canon for this particular error. I am personally wary of purchasing another Canon. That’s just me though!
such cute little pugs.
i agree with your previous post, puggles are cute but pugs have so much character. i don’t yet have a little puggy companion but i will eventually.
Cairo wanted me to give to say arf to Sasha and Sage. Sasha and Sage’s “parents” are our cousins. It’s nice to see more and more dog bloggs. My husband and I started Cairo’s site almost a year ago and Cairo has a good following. Keep up the great work.
I watched the Purina show on thanksgiving and wanted to know what happened that caused Dermot to back away from the judge. The little guy seemed hurt or startled by the judge. What happened???
Apparently, earlier in the week or at a previous show just prior to that show, a judge had caught a fingernail inside dermot’s mouth, and it hurt him.
thus, the next time he was on the table being examined, he backed away from the judge.
rather random and really a shame.
Ouch! A scratched cornea doesn’t sound like fun. Hope Gizmo’s eye recovers quickly.
I agree about the puggles. NO CONTEST.
I have a pug , shes 5 months her name is Penny. Well shes my friends mostly but its mine too because I take care of her too. I was wondering if you had any info about dog shows in orange county for pugs. she has her papers and all her shots. please email @ krzycris20@hotmail.com . thanks
It’s called the tuck and run.
The other day my vet called it the “habenero-pepper dance”!
We call it the bunny hop. Sometimes when they are so excited the tuck and hop in one place before they take off on their run.
Merry Christmas! Tomorrow I go to my grandma’s house where I get to play with her black pug!
Merry Christmas, Gizmo and Gadget….glad you’re back in wonderful New Orleans!
I call the laps the Pug-tona 500. And mine also tucks in especially on tile so he can go more aerodynamic and not slip—once he is on the carpet he goes turbo!
I have a friend who’s a Pug. Her name is Bridget. We get along very well. I like Pugs.
Kenya the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever
Ivan is still a big boy!! Those puppies are so pretty. If I ever get a puppy, I’d seriously want to contact you to get the info for one of the offspring of yours. We’ve gotten used to the older pugs and rescue and letting the older ones live out their lives in peace….but those puppies are so much fun.
How about 4 dogs instead of 1? We think 4 is a really good number! We wish we lived closer so we could play too!
Happy New Year to all the pugs (and people too)!
We call it the butt run!
I really enjoy your page and all the pictures within. I’m a new pug owner of a now 5 month old. Please feel free to stop by Sadie’s new space and leave some comment, advice or enjoy her pictures!
We call it the pugtona too.
My male pug Wiggums also likes to get close to my mouth and breathe. I think he’s really checking to see if I ate anything behind his back!
Please help. There are some lost Pugs listed on http://www.roythepug.com. We know how sad we would be if we were separated from our family and are trying to spread the word.
We love your website! Thanks for posting our Christmas picture for everyone to see – it was the best Christmas present!
Check us out on our new blog http://mypugsblog.blogspot.com/
See you on the web.
(PS – those lost puggies were found!)
Excellent pillow, dudes. The Von Puglish look like very distinguished folks.
That oopsie is so cute. I forget sometimes how much energy the youngsters have.
Oh my goodness!!!!!!! They are all totally adorable! You just want to shower them with kisses!
Hello! We’ve recently started a puggy blog of our own, and wanted to let you know that we’ve added a link to your pug blog on ours. We would love a reciprocal link back, but if not, no worries. We’ve been fans of other pug blogs for a long time now, and finally got around to creating our own place to share, please come by for a visit. We also have a big photo area were people can upload pics of their dogs and we -really- would love it if you would add pics of yours there too. We’re at http://www.iggyandbella.com

Hi Guy!
I’m Vinny the Pug and I live in Scottsdale Ranch, Arizona near Phoenix. Are you guys out of New Orleans’s? My human Allen is also from the Crescent City. This is a real neat website you have here. You’re invited to my website as well or use GOOGLE to research “Vinny the Pug”. Hope to talk with you sometimes. Later,

As I write this, I don’t know whether to laugh or cry..I think I am doing both! I had a pug for 16 years, and had to put her down recently. I miss her terribly.
Thank you for the video. I had not forgotten the sound of her little snorting and breathing..and it was nice to hear again. (I think I’ll play it again!)
Bless you, and keep the videos coming!
That is the funnyist thing i have ever watched…love the pug’s…bless them….!!! i cant wate to get my little Turbo…!!!! not to long now.*x*
They are more adorable in video then they are in photos!!
I’m a first time pug owner…actually I’m a first time dog owner and pugs are just too funny to me. Regarding one of your posts from below about brocolli and pears…I must try those items. Sadie likes bananas, lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, cheese.
Big article about Dermot in the USA today last thurs. I felt sorry for the little guy, hopefully he can make his full comeback this weekend at the Westminster!
My Kritter is doing the marking because he’s mad at me thing too! I finally had to get him a belly band. He’s mad at that too!
Go Dermot!!!
Poor Dermot! I saw him kneel back and I saw him do the exact same thing right after his incident. It was a female judge at another show that cut his gum previously. It was an accident but still, it hurt him. He hasnt been the same since. We still love Dermot and he is a winner to us! : ) Crazy judges!
Oh Gizmo you are too much, I think you guys need a bigger computer desk chair…
I’d give anything to be not so rural and closer to celebrations. Gadget looks adorable in his beads. Glad he didn’t have to stoop as us humans do for them…..lol.
i need pug
pug pug pug pug pug pug pug
I’ve seen pictures of your pugs many times.
I think they are two of the cutest pugs I’ve ever seen.
We just lost our 2 pugs in Dec, one Male from seizures, and the other female from a collapsed trachea. If you know of any good reputable breeder’s please let me know who they are and where they are located, with addresses and phone numbers, if you have them.
Thanks,

Dear Bob:
First, I am sorry for your loss. I know it must be hard. Second, thank you for the compliment about our pugs. Gizmo & Gadget are currently studs. My mother and her friend DeeAnne breed them. Here is DeAnne’s contact info b/c my mom is out of town for a few weeks. http://members.aol.com/dulittlepugs/dulittle.htm
This is “Pug City” from some our privious posts! Good luck, and hopefully a little Gizmo or Gadget will soon be a member of your family:)
Thanks,
Tricia Kastl
Great beads and a great photo! Gadget looks fantastic!
I AM TRING TO LOCATE A CHART ESTIMATING THE GROWTH OF PUPPIES INSIDE THE WOMB.A CHART FROM CONCEPTION TILL RIGHT BEFORE DUE DATE,COULD YOU HELP ME?THANKYOU
Chewie does the same thing. I work at home now and had to install a baby gate to keep Chewie away from my work computer (and my boyfriends crazy computers) because he HAS to be in the chair with me. With his shedding, I can just imaine explaining to my boss my Brand New computer stopped working because of the dog hair!!!!!
But chewie sits in the chair at cafes, on benches at the park, everywhere. I have to pull up a second chair when we eat at cafes so he can have his water bowl on the table and I can eat!
Chewie has even been known to trick people into getting up to steal their chairs at dinner paties!
How can I get an RSS feed on this blog? I am new to this and really like the content being discussed here
Poor Gizmo…frightened by the ‘nothings’. That happens a lot at our house. The worst is the coffee grinder. Makes the gang jump every time.
you are rude
My Gizmo is spooked by everything, all the time! Hairdryer, wind, kid next door, dogs on TV. But Kritter will only occasionally do something like your Gizmo. I don’t like to see him worried, but it is good to know he’s watching out for us!
When Beans gets spooked, she barks at “nothing”. But you know, I figure it may be nothing to us, but who knows what vast powers the pug brain has? They could be detecting something we just aren’t aware of! It looks like Gizmo made it back to the top of the bed (Beans likes to sleep on my head, too!), so I hope all will be well and the bad “spook” is gone forever! If he still seems upset, you might want to try giving him a “Mellow Mutt” chew…they’re chicken jerky with some herbs like chamomile, and they always seem to help Beans chill out when she’s a bit hinky from thunderstorms, stranger visits or “the nothings”.
My Pug, Stanley, adores sleeping on my pillow. I’m not really sure if he thinks he is a human, therefore the pillow is where your head should go or if he does it to annoy me! I even got him his own pillow but naturally he didn’t go for it. Oh well, I guess I’ll continue to share my pillow with him!
I love your blog. Always amusing!
Gizmo, you are soooooo cute!!! Look at that little tongue!
My pugs demand to be fed in the morning. All they care about is food.
My Pug Lola likes to sit on the toilet sit and watch while I get ready! Pugs…go figure!
My pug Oliver cannot wait until I get up so that he can be fed. When I am fixing his food, he twirls around and around and may even bark. He acts as if he has not eaten ever. I love reading about your pugs. It is so funny how pugs have so many like behavioral characteristics. I am really nervous because I will be relocating to New Orleans to the warehouse district and I think that Oliver is going to be so out of his element.
My pugs do the same, stay in bed as long as possible. They used to get up as soon as they saw me come in the room, but now they just stay put. My female pug, Ruby, does it the most. I tell her she is getting her beauty sleep. Rex, our male pug, eventually comes over when I’m working on the computer and wants to sit on my lap.
They both love to site on the bath mat when I’m in the shower. The funniest is when I blow dry my hair, it looks as if they are asleep sitting up. i think the noise makes them fall asleep.
My Gizmo gets up with me and nests in the dirty clothes that are perpetually left on the bathroom floor instead of the hamper.
Kritter stays in bed until he hears anything indicating someone is eating, and then he’s wide awake. But, if he runs into the kitchen and sees there is no food, he does the quickest U-turn you’ve ever seen and gets back in bed.
It’s really up to the individual dog. Cleo is Cleo Fields right now but the rest of us are Marvin, Pooh Bear and Sandie Segreto. So we’ll definitely be changing our names to Fields. It is much easier to say and spell! Cleo has nickname of “Little Bull” because she’s so hyper she’s always knocking things over. She’s a German Shorthair. I’m a shepherd husky and my mama calls me her Marvin Teddy Bear. It’s very embarassing. Pooh Bear is “Pooh Bear Schmooh Bear” and he loves it, poor thing. Sandie is Sandie Collie Girl or “Baby Girl”. We like checking out G&G’s antics!
Chief Chewie Macris it is….My MaMa calls me Chew-Chew, Monkey, Chew Butt, Chewster, and my favorite, Baby.
We love Rex and Ruby!
Too cute!
Can we be added to your list of blogs?
Have a great day!
Ohh they are so cute! Love the names too! Good luck on your wedding slideshow – cool idea
Anonymous is being obnoxious! I like the slideshow and the song is peppy.
I love these videos of Gadget swimming! I particularly love the little swipe of water that his tongue got at the end. His little feet are paddling as fast as he can, even though you are obviously holding him up. So cute seeing little Gadget swim.
Hah — very cool. Who cares what the name of the song is. It is cool regardless.
our 2 pugs love the pool. you should get some sort of a raft. I bought one of those mesh ones and our pugs will let us pull them the pool. They love it!!
Our two pugs are Oz and Dudley, but they actually go by several names each. Oz is usually Oz-Poz, Ozzer Pozzer, or Oz Poz McRoz Matoz if we decide to use the extended version (hah). Dudley is most commonly Dud, but often Dud Dud, Dudley Wudley, or “Dudley, drop that d@*# Q-tip!”
I enjoyed that! They are so good looking.
You are so lucky they stayed that way! Mine always follow me to get the camera and ruin the shot.
Hi!
I love your blog, you’re soooo cute!
Would you like to link with my dog blog? I’m an Airedale Terrier puppy.
Mine is here: http://www.toaireisdivine.com
Thanks!
Bogart Handsome Devil
ADORABLE !!! & PRICELESS, I WANT A PUG SOOOO BAD
You can drop that basket off with those to in it at my front door.
Hi, I wrote to you a while back about how I would be relocating to New Orleans in the warehouse district. Do you have a great vet for the pugs and if so can you refer him to me. Oliver,my pug,has alergies and needs a great vet. I hope that we can get the dogs together for a meeting at somepoint. Your dogs are so cute, I even had my mom log onto the site to see how cute they are.
Hi, Do any of your dogs have a problem with yeast infections? My pug, Buster, seems to get a lot of them. The wrinkle is one spot that has improved, but his ears are still really bad.
We think Gizmo might have a yeast problem on his paw, and my parents’ beagle has yeast problems. I’m not really sure what to do about it! There’s probably a cream.
Such a cutie!
I am looking for a pug, if its free I will be willing to travel. Where in Louisiana are you located. DO you ship, not many people do but why not ask. Please contact me soon.. 817-205-2030. Thanks, Meagan
My pug baby’s name is Bonnie Boo Puglet. What an absolute joy she is.
Gadget is such a cutie. You may already know this but a little hydrogen peroxide mixed with water on a q-tip will do wonders on his folds, especially if there is a slight infection. But definitely water down the hydrogen peroxide before use. This is also great if they are a little irritated in their ears. This was the advice of one of my three dog trainers. Good luck!
Oh, no! what happened? I hope you’re not talking about YOUR pug baby? Keep us posted, ok?
n
(who you don’t know, but checks the blog all the time.. hehe
We are looking for a older female to pair up with our Daisy… but we are in Edmonton, Canada. Too far away?
Hey you two! Congrats on your upcoming wedding. This is the first time I’ve left a message here but I have visited the site many times. As a frustrated wanna be pug owner, I try to visit as many pug sites as possible for information (the cute pictures are a big plus!).
Have a Happy Wedding Day!
from the Great White North,
Maureen & Maggie Roach
Congratulations!! We wish you many happy years together!
Congratulations on your big weekend. I wish you and Gizmo many joyful years together. I look forward to your RSS feed every day.
Congratulations on the wedding! I hope it was a great day for the both of you. My fiance and I are also getting married this year! Just curious to know if you included you puggies in the wedding ceremony? If so, pics please! ehhe.
-Nia
We found your blog and think it’s great, Love it!
Pictures are really nice, this one is our favorite one…hhmmm making me feel a bit sleepy, think I’ll go take a nap myself ![]()
Pug Hugs & Sloppy Kisses~Gidget (oh, and Duke)
Hey great site, I stumbled across it tonight. I live in Metairie and own ( or vice versa) a littile pug 12 weeks “pig”. He has been the greatest thing ever. Do you go to a dog park around here? is there one?
thanks
wrong email ..Im typing under heavy pug attack
i do want a pug but alas, i cannot have one (yet!) i will keep visting my gorgeous virtual pugs instead. thanks for the wallpaper!
I want a Dyson vacuum!! I have been begging my husband for one since we got married…. Maybe someday I will get one. *sigh*
Gadget is soooo cute!
Your pugs are really handsome, and I ought to know, because I have a champ myself. Next time I am “in the market,” I definitely want to talk to you guys, because I’d love to have one from this bloodline.
I’ll have to send over a picture of Max and Ollie (my rescue pug). They would have a blast playing with the G Boys. SO cute and snuggly! And your pictures are great too! Pugs can be really hard to photograph.
Yes, sometimes they are very hard to photograph. I’m pretty good at capturing moments, though. The trick is to have a lot of light (sunlight is best) and to use the “manual” setting on your digital camera.
I find that flashes ruin pug pictures and that i get much better results w/o it — you have to have lots of light and the right manual settings on your camera, though.
I just love that Rasta Pug T-shirt. You did buy one, didn’t you
I want your vacuum!! I have been asking my husband to buy me a purple Dyson ever since they came out.
I haven’t found anything to help my Chihuahua mix’s shedding problem. She carpets my tile floor. It’s awful. I am curious to know if the hair cut helps, because I thought of doing that….
I also use the furmurator and a wire brush. I have heard that a raw egg once a month will help the quality of the coat. I figure that might indirectly help the shedding. I never thought about shaving them. I can’t WAIT to see the pictures!
When you post the “hair do” pictures, how about some wedding pictures also? Gotta love a pug! – BonnieBoo’s Mom
I find that if I bathe Mini once a week, it helps keep the shedding down. The day before I give her a bath is when the shedding starts to get bad.
I am curious to see if you are able to minimize the shedding! I’m getting tired of puppy hair on my pillow too….
I just ordered the furminator today. I can’t wait to see how it works on Penelope.
Buy a Doberman. They don’t stink, shed, and are smarter than those aliens. lol
The only problem with ours is that she keep bugging me to play this dude’s music…

I own a Pug and six grooming salons in St. Louis, Mo. Kennelwood is the name of our company. Our Pug’s name is Tia Maria and we have her shaved every six to eight weeks by one of our professional groomers. She looks great, feels great and we don’t miss the hair around the house at all. I strongly recommend using a professinal groomer and shaving your Pug if you want to eliminate the pet hair.
i have both a black and a fawn pug and i can assure you, they both shed bad! the weird thing is that once fred (fawn) turned 5, his shedding got better. jinx (black) is 3 and is a shedding machine. some days i consider buying an all black wardrobe and furniture!
Our fawn pug Ruby shedds like crazy too. Iwas just on the web searching for a solution to the shedding problem and found this site. I doubt is Ruby would go for the shaving though! i hope I can find another calmer solution. LOL

only a pug owner would understand why this is cute. my puggy does this slide all the time.
that was great and funny
It is one thing when the pug “slides” on his own but causing him to slide into the door and the wall is totally abusive. If this person “loves” this baby so much, he would NEVER treat it like this. I have a pug and fail to see the humor in this. Our responsibility is to take care of and protect our pets, not use them for hurtful amusement.
Samson is a precious little pooch. Hopefully he won’t end up with hip or knee problems as a result of sliding into the wall so many times. I think the filmer should have stopped after the first or second slide. My little pug chases after my laser pointer just like that little guy did. Getting him to chase it around our living room is a good way to help him get rid of some energy. He hasn’t learned, after months of laser use, that he will not ever be able to actually catch the red dot…
I have lurked on your blog for some time now, and love it. My pug does the same sort of things that you describe, but getting up high is his favorite! We call him a rooster because he is always as high as he can get. I used to have a cat tree for him to sit on – now he just uses the back of my couch.
I think this behavior is part of the Pug “Look at me, I’m the center of attention” act. Pugs are WONDERFUL! I love my little girl so very much. Gadget and Gizmo look just like her except her tongue is out all of the time similar to Yogi’s. Love this site. Thanks Matthew.
I agree with Donna, not to be an overly sensitive animal lover,(alhough, i believe nothing is wrong with that anyway) but you could have hurt you dog. its not cute or funny. Pugs have problems with their hips, why encourage it?
maybe if you ran straight into a glass door maybe it would improve your looks, then you wouldn’t so bitter about being ugly. Grow the Fuck up. does it make you feel more manly to pick on innocent creatures who can’t even defend themselves.
I cannot believe someone would do this to a puppy they claim to “love”. I have a pug and I can’t imagine forcing him to run into a wall, over and over again. I understand that pugs get excited and like to run around but, this is just cruel. It clearly looks like someone is pushing this little dog into the pins!!! Poor little baby!
Justh thtop it! It’s an alternative lifethtyle! You big brutes!!
Well! No one can say this board isn’t inclusive!
Seriously, folks need to chill out. “And that’s the truth, Ruth.”
Why not give Samson to a good home that will love him, you obviously don’t. He did not look like he was having fun in your stupid video. You are the retard not Samson.
Thanks a lot for your comments! We want everyone to enjoy our site. Please keep coming back:)
Matt,
Been coming to this site but I think this is the first time I’m posting here. You mentioned in your previous posts that Gizmo now sits *on the desk* while Tricia studies. You HAVE to take a picture of that….. It would be a absolute blast!!!!!
Always look forward to coming to this site. Keep up the great work!
Pug love, Pug heart let’s get together and feel alright!
Hybrid Purebreeds is not accurate….Hybrids are mutts with fancy names so people can charge more for them, but that doesn’t mean you can’t love them….The brugs are ewoks!!!!! brilliant!! I’m all for buying the dog you want and love, purebreed, designer, or straight up mutt!
Grow up. he stated right in the box that it had a happy ending and that it was a charged issue and please no profanity. you should have just not watched it after reading the intro. All you complainers need to get a life. dogs are smart enough to know that if it hurts they’re not gonna keep doing it. go find a fluffy bunny happy website that’s rated G and leave this poor guy alone.
I just realized that some of you think that this is my video. This is not my video, I found it on You Tube. I am not in the video and my dogs are not in the video. Samson is NOT my dog and I am NOT his owner.
Matt, I, for one, never thought this poor little baby was yours. You love your pugs too much to treat them like this. I absolutely love the pictures and information about Gadget and Gizmo. Thanks for this site.
Hi Gizmo & Gadget!
I’m changing the URL of Kritter & Gizmo’s blog, and I’m telling everyone I link to in case they read it. It’s now http://www.flatnosedpups.com or http://www.flatnosedpups.blogspot.com
Looking for a free/very cheap pug. Please let me know if anyone knows of anything in the West Virginia region. I am willing to travel. Thank you – natali_jj@wvwc.edu
Hey, mind if I link to you? I’m building a community blog for pug stories and resources.
I’m curious to know how well shaving helped with the shedding. I’m considering but, but only if it works well! By the way, the Furminator … awesome!
Please be concerned about an overweight puggy. This usually leads to a several health problems later on. I had a friend who had a pug and was overweight (he’s actually as fat as the ones in this site). The vet told him to watch the weight. He didn’t do anything about it, thinking oh he’s cute when he’s fat and all that. A few months later the pug developed diabetes and pancreas disorders and all that and eventually died. You know pugs have a way of hypnotizing us humans with their sad little puggy faces and tell us to give them more and more food. So, ultimately we have to control them.
I have seen the pictures if brugs on the inernet, specifically Louis and Oskar, and was instantly smitten. I have been breeding pugs and recently started puggles. I think the brug should be the new “it” dog as it is the cutest damn dog ever! A shaggy haired pug! I mean really! I am going to breed my pug mama with a brussels now. I hope people see what I see ’cause I am very excited. Oh and all you hybrid haters out there just shut up how do you think dog breeds came into existance in the first place. -L
I absolutely love Gadget and Gizmo! They remind me of my pug baby, BonnieBoo. Pugs are such a joy! Keep the web site going. Daily prayers are going up to Heaven for Gizmo.
want a cheap or free pug in southwestern new york area
Thankyou
Hi Matt,
I just stumbled upon your blog and fell in love with it. I only wish there was a blog just for beagles that had as much love as yours does for Pugs.
Anyway, if you have a few minutes I’d love to have you submit it to our newish blog directory, delightfulblogs.com. I’m sure the dog crazy folks visiting the directory would dig it as much as I did.
best,
Lynda
Hey Pugs! A bunch of us with doggie blogs are playing tag and we tag you. Come on over to our site to see how the game works. The fleas gang.
We played!! Thanks for tagging us!
Good luck with law school!!!! That’s such a big deal!
Thanks for playing. I think this all started over at http://www.dogswithblogs.com.au/
is that thing really real
While some flea products are more harmful than others, all are formulated to kill fleas, and the only difference in what it takes to kill fleas and what it takes to kill your pet is the size of the dose.
Read my article, GOT FLEAS? to learn what flea products do. It is free to publish. Find it here: http://www.liquorman.net/gotfleas
KEEP FLEAS OFF will be available on EBAY starting Friday, Aug. 23.
Now this sounds like my BonnieBoo. I get up at 3 am but she DEFINITELY is not interested in even moving at that hour. She is far, far away in Pug snore land. If I have to move her, I get lots of grunts and other strange sounds while she holds her eyes tight shut. She will occasionally open one little eye a smidgen but that is it. What a wonderful life it is living with a pug!!!!! Good luck to you both this semester.
BonnieBoo’s Mom (and proud of it)
My Goddess is a lawyer also, however, I was not allowed to go to law school. Something about “he might get out and run away”, but more about the Goddess left me to watch out after the grandparents.
My Goddess said the first year of law school sucks! By the third year though, you will have it all down, so don’t lose heart.
I feel it is cruel and unusual punishment to wake pugs at 5:30 a.m. Maybe you could work on that a bit.
Good luck to you in school.
Lexy likes to sleep late too. She dreams just like other dogs, growls a little, makes those twitching moves with her paws like she running BUT, she also was sound asleep snoring and wagging her tail wildly the other day. It was so funny to see her tail wagging while she was snoring. Must have been a great dream. I didn’t dare wake her up.
By the way, we have pug neighbors two doors away. If you ever want to see what Gizmo and Gadget will look like in their senior years, come over. The two pug neighbors are 15 and 18.
Heck yes! We have one of the Dyson DC14 Animals… and it makes me sad we just put in laminate flooring! I have never wanted to take the time to vacuum so much in my life. It just works, doesn’t clog, and by golly it has suction even when it’s overflowing. I have 2 pugs and 2 longhaired cats, and I don’t know how I lived without it. Works on the floors now too!
The bowl picture is adorable.
Oh, look at his little bunchy skin! He looks so cute and comfy!
What cuties
I agree with you, especially with pitas and wraps and that family. When they are made that badly, you cannot eat it quickly, thus defeating the purpose of fast food.
Matt, I feel that at the very least, the lady should consider only walking one of the dogs at a time. She is risking her safety and the safety of the dogs, not to mention other people and their dogs and children. Although both breeds are normally not agressive, they are active. I would hate to see the dogs pull her down and possible run out in front of a car. I wish her luck. Gizmo is in our daily prayers.
BonnieBoo’s Mom
Wanting a cheap or free pug in the northwest arkansas area
Where do I get free pug… I would actually not like a puppy b/c I don’t want to puppy – proof my house, but I don’t want an elderly dog b/c I had a lot of problems with my 15 – yr – old pug, Betty. She was not able to walk at the end. My husband has gotten a 1-yr old min. pinscher from the pound and we will be keeping him. I also have a 5.75 year old daughter who loves dogs and misses Betty. If a puppy is all that is available, I am willing to keep them safe until they reach 2 yrs. with the puppy-proofing. My Betty was Black and Fawn & she was from Kansas. Do you have any dogs that would fit in?
Just a few weeks ago, my uncle’s mom’s six-pound dog was a victim of two large dogs being “walked” by their 80+ year old owner. The man had his dogs on retractable leashes, but he was not able to pull his dogs back before one of them managed to get the little dog it its mouth. Luckily, my uncle’s mom acted very quickly and got her little girl to the animal hospital where they were able to operate. After a couple of hard days of waiting, they learned that their little girl would pull through, but she would have difficulty walking the rest of her life. It makes me sick to think of something like this happening to a dog. As a dog owner, it is your responsibility to have your dogs under control, for their own safety as well as the safety of others.
That is so cute, he uses his paw to paw it out then eats. My dog likes to take one piece over the carpeted area first to eat then she will eat the rest once she has decided they are all safe to eat. LOL silly puppys.
That is too cute! What I find even more odd is that he walked away from a bowl full of kibble! My gang never leave a bowl until it has been licked completely clean!
For some reason I can’t get the picture but I know exactly what you are talking about. My sweet BonnieBoo also takes a few kibbles out of the bowl and puts them on the floor to eat them. Just another endearing thing our pug kids do. Gotta love ‘em!!!
My pug Tabitha does this as well… I always thought it was because she doesn’t like the way the bowl feels around her face. Possibly claustrophobia? If I put her food on a plate or on the ground she’ll eat it with out any problems. Silly pugs!!
My pug does the same thing too, but he’ll sometimes take it a step further. If I’m not in the kitchen with him when he eats he’ll carry his few kernels of food to where ever I am, drop them on the floor, then eats them, then goes back for me more and repeats the whole process. He’s a goofy little dog and I wouldn’t trade him for anything in the world.
The video is so cute! We have two pugs, Pork and Brown, they both are strange little critters. Pork paws at both food and water while Brown just puts the food in his mouth, then move away from the bowl to eat. I later figured out that they don’t like to eat out of the bowl so now we started feeding them out of paperplates (it’s crazy!) and they love it! They don’t like to stick their nose into their food bowls for some reason…silly little puggies.
My pug also takes food out of his bowl and puts it on the floor to eat it although he takes it out of the bowl with his mouth. Like Kyle, my pug will run into whatever room I’m in to drop the food then eat it off the floor. It is so funny to hear him running back and forth across the floor from the living room to the utility room, where we keep the food.
if i only had a pug of my own to talk about in the forums. so glad i can visit yours
cardgames
I had a pug but lost her in an ugly divorce. Can’t afford to buy one. I work at Petco and can give my pug anything he/she wants..I live in Louisiana.. Please help….
I would probably do the same thing since I am very protective of my pugs. I myself am intimidated by aggressive, out of control dogs. As Dog Whisperer says, you have to show no fear. It’s easier said than done when the dogs are huge and go wild. Cesar can tame those aggressive, mean dogs but I doubt even with practice, I can do that with ease with unfamiliar dogs. I have found that bringing delicious treats with me works. Shaking my portable treat jar uses catches attention. Then I throw the treat in another direction and walk away briskly with my pugs. I try to advoid any confrontation between the dogs or with the dog owner. If the dog is out of control, it shows a lot about the pet parent.
This continues to prove that pugs are the best! There is no such thing as a mean pug!
I LOVE how he paws it out first. My pug eats must faster than Gizmo – he INHALES the food.
Hey Matt! i have a pug named princess and id love to bring her to her 1st meetup. please tell me when it is!
amy
Chicken! Sachi the pug LOVES Chicken! Will work for Chicken! Costco sells the chicken jerkey for much cheaper! Thecy claim it’s 8 lbs of chicken, dried. Sachi can go thru them in 2 weeks!
My 12 year old daughter can easily control our 120# Great Dane. I get vastly annoyed when people assume large dogs are more difficult to control. It is a matter of the dog’s obedience and maturity, not size. If her dogs didn’t bother you, stop beefin’.
The pug Paris Hilton is holding looks quite disturbed. I don’t blame the poor thing…
She is not the right kind of person to have a Pug. She’s not a “pug person”. She doesn’t have the time nor the patience to give it the love and attention it needs.
Hopefully she will hire someone to take care of it…..
Just a comment for the individual who uses a laser pointer to amuse her pug; are you aware of all the research that shows that using that pointer to tease your dog has been shown to cause dogs obsessive-compulsive disorder, particularly with shadows? Perhaps before you throw stones at others you need to thoroughly research what you do for fun. All that aside, I don’t think the pug is being hurt, as he seems to willingly get back up and obviously lets the owner continue to do it. But, all this is just my opnion.
Happy birthday, y’all! The cupcakes look yummy.
*LOL* i’d also like to point out that that little girl is only gonna get bigger and heavier… i always joke that the reason paris has chihuahuas and monkey-things (kinkaju? is that it?) and not a pug is that her skinny little arm would break right off from the weight of carrying my little piper like that….. and piper is a little pug… that poor little thing in the picture – looks like her tummy is getting squeezed.
What an absolutely adorable baby! Pugs are awesome! I love my little puglet to pieces. So sweet and loving. Keep the pictures coming.
BonnieBoo’s Mom
Poor pug, he does look very unhappy. Paris Hilton shouldn’t be allowed to breed or own animals for that matter. I recently discovered Hampton Inns are owned by the Hiltons – won’t be sleeping there anymore.
Looking for a pug to love. I am seraching for a female puppy black and fawn. I currently own a (fixed) male dog and have found that females are more affectionate. Plz help.
Very classy collar, Gizmo!
All those Pugs look very cute, I especially love that fire hydrant. Great pics!
All their costumes look great! I can’t even contain the laughter…I’m going to have to go all out next Halloween with Sadie.
I love it! I haven’t laughed harder in my life! Everytime I think about El Mucha Poochador I giggle uncontrollably!
you’re right, that is by far the best costume I’ve ever seen. Way to go Shelby’s Mom!
HELLO,
JUST READIDING HERE ABOUT THE CART AND THE GROWTH OF THE PUPPIES IN THW WOMB, AND FROM CONCEPTION TILL RIGHT BEFORE BIRTH. COULD YOU SEND ME A COPY OF THAT IF YOU HAVE ONE. I HAVE A PUG THAT IS PREGNANT AND WOULD LIKE TO SEE HOW THEY DEVELOP INSIDE THE WOMB.
THANX, CHARLENE
I am trying to find out the name of the Kennel Ch Kendoric’s Riverson Mulroney (Dermott)comes from. I want to buy a puppy from his lineage. Can’t seem to find anything PLEASE HELP!!!!
My poor little BonnieBoo has had a scratched cornea twice. Thank God her eye has healed both times with no permanent damage to her site. The first time she scratched her eye on a bush in the yard (the offending bush no longer exists) and the second time she did it with her own toe nails. Typical of a pug, she was wiping her face. Her nails has just been cut and filed or it could have been worse. I have considered buying goggles for her. Our wonderful vets treated her with meds in the office and sent her home with with an ointment for her eye.
PUGS ARE THE BEST!!!!!
Hi, I am looking for the same chart, I have typed in every word that it could possibly be under could you please help me thanx, Kimberly

I had a corneal ulcer. My eye was so swollen and sore. I was miserable for a few days till Mommy took me to the vet. They gave her some medicine for my eye but I didn’t like it in my eye. So I ate it. I still have a spot left-over. I don’t know if thats normal or not, but my eye is fine now. We are not sure how it happened. I probably scratched it something. I got into some bushes.
I have a Brug, and am totally in love with him. He if full of mischief and into everything, but is so cute you can’t get mad at him. He’s 5 months old, 7lbs, and has no clue he is this small. He has the greatest personality. I recommend this breed to everyone.
i need a free pug in nothcalina by 11-26-06
Hey your pugs are so cute.I have my own (actually it’s my brothers, but I take care of him).They are so cute…your lucky.Wondering…how old are Gadget and Gizmo because they look like there 1 (one)years old.Gadget looks greay in those pearls.Really nice.
Thanks(Thx),
Isabelle pug lover!!
Todd’s eye is injured and swollen and white???? He’ on his way to the vet today. I can see a hole in his cornea. I’m so scared for him that his injury has taken his vision. Has this ever happened to any of you?
I never heard of Belly Bands. My pug is just over 2, and he doesn’t really have “accidents.” He just wants to mark everything as his – including the cat.
Is that what Gidget and Gazmo do? If so, do they still lift their legs and just pee on the band?
If they work, this sounds like a great idea.
Hey, just wanted to drop a comment and say I love your blog… it’s got great pics and vids of your pugs. It helped to convince to get one, too. I also thought that it was interesting that you’re in law school… I’m a 3L at Texas, so it’s good to know that a pug can survive even with someone as busy as a law student.
Good luck on finals!
Gizmo & Gadget only mark (they don’t have accidents). They don’t still lift their legs and pee on the band for whatever reason. It’s like they know that area is covered and that they cannot mark. The belly bands really work! They are especially useful when we bring them over to other people’s homes:)
you should google ’snuggle sacks’ and check those out. They are adorable and you can get them personalized and pick the colors and everything. They are awesome!
Greetings!!
Hi, this is Monalyn. I am impressed with your articles. I’ve been doing some research about puppy information on the web and found a couple of very cool sites with useful
information about puppy, it is:
(“http://www.petplace.com/puppy.aspx”).
What do you think about this? I’ve got a 4 year old kid and I would
like to be really sure about the puppy that I finally pick for my
home”.

Nice sweater! Those Gap dog clothing designers are brilliant!
I want one for Monty. Do you know if it’s possible to get that sweater here in the states? After Monty does his ‘bidness outside we sometimes find that we have “urine-scented pug” or rather, a “urine-scented sweater.” Yikes!

my pug Napoleon has brown spots on the white parts of his eyes,they dont bother him but i am afraid it could be something serious, he had a check up and the vet said he was fine, but i dont think she noticed his eyes and i just saw them.
the next time you go to the vet, you need to point that out, not just let the vet ignore it!
can you let me know if there are any FREE pugs in the new york region. please and thank you. Kellie
Merry Christmas to you guys! Good luck with the move too
Any pugs in the Buffalo vicinity.
I just found your site and all the other pug sites! I love them!!! I of course have a pug, many pictures on my non-pug blog.
Can you tell me what Gap store in Paris? I’m living in Europe now and find it hard to get sweaters for pugs here. I often go to Paris but haven’t found a Gap store that carries dog sweaters yet. Thanks.
Good luck finding a free pug you guys unless someone gives away one.Very doubtful. They are very expensive dogs. The cheapest I have found was for 200 and that is in tennessee. But I have not seen anything for free. Not even in the local animal shelters. Go to petfinder.com and type in pug on the side column and it will bring up all of the pugs in your area that are for adoption or at an animal shelter, but none of them are going to be free.
So glad to hear you made it to your new home safely! Have fun with that unpacking!
I am looking for a free/cheap Male pug. I am from the Ohio area, traveling would be fine for me.

I just found your site yesterday and I love it!!! I have a 2 year old pug (his birthday was DEC 30th) named PRESLEY. It’s so funny how alike pugs can be. I was up for hours reading all the archives- and cracking up!!! I added you site to my favorite’s list and will be checking it daily. Once again– great site!!!
I heard it was National De-lurking Week, so I stopped by to leave a comment! I just found your blog a day or so ago, and it’s pretty cool!
Attention! I have put up pics of my pugs on my blog so you all can see! Leave a comment on my blog and tell me what you think of them!
Cute pug!
Thanks – I can’t bring Chewbacca ANYWHERE right now.
Dear Pugs,
You ARE soo cute I can’t believe It. I wished I had one but I can’t because my big dog will eat It.
Hi Matt,
I think your pugs are seriously the cutest pugs I’ve ever seen. I plan on getting a pug as soon as I can afford to be a good mommy to one…I was wondering where you got your pugs? I live in NYC, so hopefully I can find a good breeder. I know of Andrea Bellmore in Eastern PA, but she’s charging $1800… Please let me know where you got Gizmo and Gadget! Thanks!
Melissa

Oh, I want a pug puppy! I have some pics of my pug on my site if Gizmo and Gadget are interested
Bath time is fun again! Of course, doing anything with pugs is always fun! We find that shaving our pugs, Porky & Brownie, with 10″ blade cut really does wonders. We have been doing it for a year and we wonder why we didn’t do it before. The hair…no more pug hair on sofa, hidden places around the house, on clothes, seriously just makes life so much better. Oh, it also makes them look about 5lbs slimmer and more fit. If you check out their pictures, they look even better shaved! Good bye to dog hair everywhere!
This is Chloe’s mom – I love the picture of Chloe with her tongue sticking out. Chloe had alot of fun at the Meetup. She can’t wait till the next one.
First, I just found your website and I love it! So I know this comment is a smidge late, but I had to respond.
We have two pugs, Gigi and Louie. But they are also known as: Gigi-Head, GigiKong (after her King Kong expressions), Monkeyhead or Monkeybutt
Louie Squishmonster (he is the squishiest pug we’ve ever had!)
I have a pug/rotweiler hybrid named Pud Pud. He’s very cute and he’s the best mannered dog I’ve ever seen! Completely calm and lovable. I’m glad I found a website with a lot of interesting hybrids that I’ve never heard of. I think it’s fun!
Wow…three Pugs! Sounds like a party…where will you and Tricia sleep?
We are looking forward to some pictures!
Porky & Brownie
Hi,
I just wanted to say that I was given a pug X mini fox terrier for Christmas and he is the most amazing little thing. The dog was so easy to train and handle, and has the best manners and personality that I could have asked for in a companion. I dont know if he is called a “Poxy” or a “Fug” but either way I call him Max and he is an angel!!!
Regards, Sassy
My fawn pug is 5 1/2 yrs. old. He has always shedding. But this Jan. and Feb. you can see it falling off while walking around house. His dog bed looks like a mouse tore up bedding, actually its all the hair he is losing daily. Even went back to vet to be checked and groomed to make sure he was healthy. Which he was. Love this guy but can’t take the hair anymore.
LOVE the furniture! I want to get our piano refinished eventually.
Re Pug vs. Mini Schnauzer, that is a very common way mini schnauzers tend to greet new dogs. It is very common. The mini schnauzer is not psycho, just being itself. Once the mini gets to know Gizmo and Gadget, they become best buddies!
MAA-N!!! I thought it was some thing I was feeding my Boogie(fawn Pug). I had a white American Bull dog that used to shed alot, but Boogie sheds a baby Pug every day. Ive often thought about shaving his coat of hair but did not think it was possible being that his hair is short as it is. Now that I know shaveing has actually been done, I may give it a try. Is there a certain clipper that one must use? I will be checking back for more info. I am happy to see that this outrageos shedding just comes along with owning a Pug and that I dont suffer alone. P.S. I would like to see pics of a shaved Pug.
My name is Frank and I am looking for an pug at least the age of 2/3 years old. I live in Orillia.

Hope Gadget’s eye feels better and heals soon!
We are always get super nervous whenever Brownie have eye problems because they are just so darn big and popping out of his eyes.
Pug Hugs & Kisses from all of us!
Porky & Brownie (and their Mom)
LMAO!!! How cute! Maybe we should try shower cap. Does it work well? Gadget looks like he wants to be a treat tester…he is waiting for the treaties. Hehehe.
I also want a baby pug very cheap or for free for my boyfriend, Dusty and I.
this looks just like my dog hotrod haha
I love my pug but he cries alot when im not around even when i go to bathroom .Is that normal?
I haven’t heard of petaholica until you mentioned it here. I’m always looking for pet “luxury items” because I love to write about them and mention them on my blog. I also love to pamper my labrador retrievers, so this is a great find.
Are you a dog rapest?

I have 2 miniature schnauzers-they’re total opposites of each otherbut have been raised together- 1 acting really bold, loud, barking all the time seemingly aggressively, & the other very friendly and barks but not aggressively. They are bred to be suspicious & my more dominant dog who acts aggressive is really just acting- he has never tried to attack, bite, or even nip or scratch another dog small or large. Schnauzers are independent, smart guard dogs,and like most other terriers, will put on a display of dominance regardless of the other dog’s gender/size. It can be alot more dangerous for them due to inviting a truely aggressive/larger dog to a challenge and atacking them. Most have no interest in fighting but in checking you (the human)out and playing with you. My dominant dog who does this more is not dog-social like my other one. We have worked with 3 trainers and 2 professional behaviorists using positive reinforcement and the Cesar method and he just doesn’t want to be with any dogs other than his brother. He sniffs them then barks rudely at them to scare them off and goes about his way. We do not excuse it, he was not properly socialized with dogs at an early age, but unless he was put into Cesar’s pack I don’t see it happening and its not natural for him anyway. Our other schnauzer however has an adorable 10 month old pug girlfriend named Oatley! They are very fiesty with each other but play really well and when Oatley is full grown she’ll probably be axactly his size- 18 pounds! I appreciate all breeds for what they were bred for and my husband and I have worked with many neglected and abused dogs, and trained fearful, hyperactive, anti-social, aggressive, nonadoptable ones with Cesar’s method. We love them all. I would just advice for your won peace of mind from one dog lover to another, don’t be offended by the schnauzer’s behavior of what you are perceiving to be a demon dog- it probably is an unbalanced antisocial dog- but even if it was balanced, it would not be mild mannered friendly one- that’s just not how schnauzers are supposed to be. Try and be calm. Your pugs are precious but they are still dog and their senses are more finely tuned than ours and they’ll know what to do if a truely vicous dog is near. I think the best thing is just relax, sing a little song, goofy as that may feel, look straight ahead, not at your dog or the other dog and keep the leash loose and keep on walking. Its helped us. I’m no professional- please consult a professional trainer for professional advice.
Very nice article! Never heard of the site, but will certainly check it out after I leave this comment. Great job matt!
I appreciate that the warnings about the pet foods have been posted. This is ‘almost’ assuring that our health and food services system works.
Question: A multinational corporation declares a $40 million recall of some of it’s products; issues cross-border product warnings across the board and avoids discussion of any questionable ingredients in said products: Why is this discussion avoided; and what is (are) the questionable ingredient(s)?
The discussion is avoided to protect the corporation’s interests furthering costs to the consumeming public, not to mention our pets.

My 6 yo pug/poodle mix was diagnosed with acute renal failure less than 2 weeks ago. He has had the experts scratching their heads. That is until now. We changed Rupert to Nutro canned food about 3 months ago. While we don’t have the recalled batch in our pantry, there is not a doubt in my mind that either he has eaten one of the recalled ones recently, or that this batch is contaminated somehow too. I would be very hesitant to continue any of the foods involved, even if it’s not the recalled batch. Unfortunately, all 3 of my cats have been eating nutro canned foods also. As of this time they all seem to be healthy though.
Our 12 year old mixed breed dog, Lady, had to be put to sleep on Thursday, December 14th, 2006 due to complications from liver failure. We did not know what caused the problem then, but we suspect that it is related to the current pet food recall.
Just by chance, we still have six cans of the Iams dog food left over. We bought 6 cans of the “Chunks with Chicken in Gravy” (product code: 60834197w2) and 6 cans of the “Chunks with Beef & Vegetables in Gravy” (product code: 61824197w2). We have three cans of each remaining, which means we feed Lady three of each flavor before she stopped eating. (These prodiuct codes are before the currently listed recall codes.)
The interesting thing is that we also have the sales receipt for the purchase of the dog food. (It was in the same plastic store bag as the dog food cans.) We bought the dog food on December 3, 2006. I wanted to point this our because this would suggest to me the problem ingredient was in the dog food before the currently listed recall dates.
In summary, I have six cans of Iams dog food left from a 12 can purchase. My dog died after just six cans. Probably because she was an older dog. These cans are from just before the recall dates. This leads one to conclude that the new supplier of the wheat gluten is not the cause of the problem. If these cans would be of any use to find a resolution, please let me know.

Looks Puglicious!
To all of you silly people who have little dogs, they are ALWAYS the ones who start fights and bite people. The only reason people look down on big dogs and danes is because they inflict more damage when they bite. I say good for that yappy little mutt who almost got eaten. ALWAYS it it ALWAYS the little dogs fault. little dogs jump, yap or bark, and bite at the gums of my dane all the time. I honestly hope he bites one of these foolish little dogs one day. Maybe that will teach you idiot little dog owners your dogs are the trouble causers. Don’t blame it on the big guys. Maybe the little dog owners should take more time and train your little dogs a little better, or ismply keep them away if you don’t want them getting bit!
I am a 12 year old girl and my parents are looking for a small pug for me. A cheap/free pug . If it is cheap they are willing to pay 300$ or under. Please a girl that wont grow up to be really big. Any color will do, and in California near LA. Please contract our phone number (714) 821-0133 or our email address yolanda7562@sbcglobal.net. Please!!!!
I like you pugss
thats cute..and my pugs names are Gizmo and Gadget also…how odd
When we put our pug Charlie, on Science Diet when we first adopted him, he developed severe allergies. Against the advise from our vet, who wanted to do all these expensive allergy tests (hundreds of dollars) and claimed he was allergic to grass, we switched his food. A few days later, he was a new dog. It turns out he was allergic to all the additives and nastiness in the food. I shudder to think what would have happened, if he was a stronger dog. We found a better vet, and we started to do research on dog food, and these are the most important things we found out:
If your vet sells Hills products (Science Diet), do not take any nutrition advice from them. Contrary to what I thought at first, there are few veterinarians who are dog nutrionists. Many veterinarians are offered incentives when they sell Science Diet or other commercial pet foods in their clinics. There are only a handful of vets, that are willing to give up these incentives and tell you the truth about the dog food industry. Science Diet, and any other commercial pet food (Iams, Eukanuba, Purina, etc..) are lower quality foods. Question the objectivity of any vet in the news or other that tell you otherwise.
Do not buy any commercial pet foods,’premium’ foods are almost as bad as any grocery brand dog food. The commercial dog food industry has made gazillions of money turning their production waste into dog food, and selling this at a ‘premium’ price. Advertising and the media, controlled by the corporate giants such as Proctor and Gamble (Iams), Colgate-Palmolive (Hills Pet Nutrition), and Heinz (9 lives, Kibbles –n-bits) are key players, and cover up that the dog food industry is really an extension of the human food and agriculture industries. Anything that the pet food distributor does not add to the food themselves, does not have to be put on the label.
Do not trust dog food labels. They tell you to look at the first five ingredients, and if the first one is a meat such as ‘chicken’ or ‘lamb’ then it is supposed to be good. It is not. There are many contrived rules to pet food labeling, ingredients are listed in order of their weight. It takes hours to understand how to properly read a label. For example, According to US Coast Guard regulations Fish Meal not destined for human consumption has to be preserved with ethoxyquin, but since this comes from the distributor, you won’t find it on the final label.
The safest thing you can do for your pet, is to switch to an organic food that guarantees they only use human-grade ingredients. Then supplement that with home-cooked ingredients and meats. Contact a dog nutritionist to get a consultation for your dog- you can get this done for under $50. Another godo resource is: http://www.thehonestkitchen.com You will save on vet bills in the end.
Hi. I have two pugs also. I have found our pugs are hard to fit with dog clothes, harnesses, etc. based on the weight on the packages because of their round middle sections. Can you tell me about how much your girls weigh and what size harnesses you got? Thanks!
I got the small size, but funnyfur will help you size if you measure your dog and let them know how big they are.
If anyone has information on the meat products (such as dog meat)from China being placed in dog food, please contact me immediately @ sharonkintz@aol.com or call 330.575.7103 (cell)

We recently were given an adorable one year old male pug. The people who had him could not take him when they moved. He is quite a hand full but every bit worth it. Does any one know of a young pug pup who may need a home and would like to help this little guy hold down the fort while we are away at work. He would love to have a new brother or sister of any color. Please only in the Kansas area. Contact us at macheal_price@yahoo.com
Hi Shelby,
Betty is my four months old baby pug. She was born with a multitude of health issues. She was a third the size of the other pups in the litter and her immune system is poor. At four week her eye was injured from what we think was from one of the other pups claws. Thought for sure she would loose it, but with much care it has repaired itself although her vision is not so good. She is so flat her breathing is compromized. About a month ago she became infected with mange. All dogs have the mite but dogs with computerized immune become infected. My other three dogs are fine. The mange is finally under control, after what seems to be a hundred hours of research on the net, but her skin is discolored and alot of her hair has fallen out. Now she is chewing her paws raw, her ears are full of goopy junk, she stinks of high hell…I keep wondering if she is ever going to be free of problems. Again, after a ton of research, it looks like Betty has Candida Albicans is a Fungus/Yeast and a common microorganism that lives in the gut of a human/dog. it is called a Systemic Yeast Infection, and it affects the health and well-being of the whole animal. I have found a way to control it. I have been feeding her a diet of chicken, carrots and brown rice three time a day with a couple of tablespoons of plain unsweetened yogurt,and a daily vitamin-mineral supplement. In her water I squeeze a small amount of lemon into it. I started dabbing her paws into Listerine every day. I put 1/3 cup of listerine in babywipes to clean her wrinkly face. For her ears I cleaned them out really, really good and then I put 5 to 10 drops of vinegar in each ears every morning. If she would have had open sores I would diluted the vinegar 50/50 with water. Now for the god awful smell. I wet her down and then I used equal parts vinegar, hydrogen peroxide, and water and scrubbed the heck out of her and boy she just loved it, then I rinsed with warm water and a final rinse of 2 teaspoons of baking soda in a gallon of water. Once a day. I cant believe it…for the first time in months she isnt scraching or chewing herself raw, her ears of clean and pink with no smell all her sores have healed up and thank god the horrible odor is GONE!! I know this all sounds like a lot of work, but the pay off is a happy little girl…My hours of research have payed off and I hope it helps anyone out their with the same problems!
good luck
Thanks for the warning. I have a pug, but so far we’ve been lucky. The fold isn’t very deep at all. What he lacks in the fold he made up for in the tongue! My vet is telling me I should consider surgery for him because pugs have all the tissue that big dogs have in their throats and it makes them have difficulty breathing. Has anyone else heard this?
Cute pictures! Are these harnesses for walking them or for riding in the car (like seatbelts)? I’m also wondering about toys. My pug plays rough. He has destroyed every toy we’ve gotten him, even the Dr. Foster ones that are rated for “tough” dogs. Does your company have any toys that you would recommend? Are you a representative for this company or is it yours?
Thanks.
I’ve heard of this. Doctors want to do it ($$$), and it might be necessary in some cases. However, it is ok for pugs to live as they were born, most of the time.
We have not had the surgery for G&G.
The harnesses are for walking, not riding in the car. Also, FunnyFur is an advertiser / sponsor of this site. I don’t represent them or own the store.
hii…i’ve 2 pugs. female n male. they’r so cute…they name are Ginger (f) and Junior (m)…for the first time,i saw pug at my friend’s house…i thought pug is ugly dog…short and terriable face…but (about 2 years ago) sudenlly, i liked pug…i tried to find where i could buy it…i saved my money to buy it…finally, i bought Ginger first…oooh gee…Little Ginger always made me laughing…alwyas made me smile…(she was 1 year old now)…oneday in the past,my friend gave me a baby male pug…so…i’ve 2 pugs now…and i’ll buy a couple of pug someday…
I agree with you sadly my dog died today and I am sure it was the new food for senoirs, the other dog refused to eat it most of the time. The vet still swears by it, but she had pancreatitis , low blood protein and liver problems all suddenly when we changed her diet. I think all these foods are full of junk deriratives and soy which is bad for dogs. I am cooking for the other dog now.
Hi!
Just learned about this website and just adopted a 1 yr. old, 1 eyed pug from Pug rescue in Denver, he came with the name Gizmo! I didn’t know that Gizmo was such a popular name for a pug.
One of these days I’ll have to figure out how to get his pic on this blog.
thanks!

thnx
I also suggest evaluating http://www.CertificateCreator.com/ . We have several members that use our service for their pets. In fact we have vets, groomers and obedience professionals that give our awards as recognition to their clients.
I have a pug who is 10, he had the surgery to fix that about three years back, because he would go into these snorting fits and not be able to breathe. It has helped him tremendously and no longer has snorting fits. We also have to clean out his folds, but my pug is pretty good about letting us. When he sees us coming with the Kleenex it knows what it means and comes closer so we can clean them for him.

ЧТО вы будете делать этиим летом?!
I had a fawn Pug who shed like crazy and now have a black Put who doesn’t shed as much. I solved the problem by buying furniture that matches the Pug. I also have invested in multi packs of lint rollers places all over my house.
I just read your review on the “Sloppy Kiss Cards” website, and yes, they do charge a $9.95 yearly membership fee, but they explain that “A portion of the proceeds from ecard memberships will go to the Petfinder.com Foundation, a public charity dedicated to ending the euthanasia of adoptable pets.” So I think it’s worth paying for the membership, or at least it should be for us pet lovers.
Congrats Tricia. I lurk around here often but not sure if I ever posted before.

I have a female Black pug she does not shed a whole lot but after reading this I don’t know what to think. I also have a female American Eskimo she is 9 and man does she shed. I just hope and pray that the pug does not shed like she does or I will go nuts having to clean up hair from the 2 of them.
Thats silly.

I dont think you need to tell people you would actually kick the dog. You sound kind of ignorant.
I agree…if you are going to quote cesar….I dont think he’d be too happy about you mentioning that you would willingly abuse another dog. Also…you are passing a lot of judgement on the other dog owner…
What a pugtastic dog! I love that little face. Dogs look so cute when sleeping!
We both have eye problems. Jake had a corneal abrasion that he mad worse due to the irritation and scratched his eye beyond repair so always remember to use an elizabethan collar until the abrasions healed. Gracie’s eye was damaged in the litter somehow and clouded over. I want to get doggles for them to protect their one good eye but pugs are so hard to size. I would like to know if anyone has gotten them and how to size them correctly.

We wrapped ours in plastic wrap then placed it in an airtight plastic container and it was pretty yummy a year later!
I have a country pug, and funny thing, she acts just like an urban pug. She is pugnificent!
interesting newsletter, thanks for your excellent review

can u tell me about that plz.
Aww, Hi Max! I’ll have to go check out the rest of the pictures!
love this site sry but i didnt put my e-mail or my website cause i dont have 1
I have a black Brug named Maggie and she is so much fun and makes us laugh all the time. She is training very well, and is only 4 months old. She is already sixteen pounds, though, so I suspect she may be prone to the larger genepool mix. She is still plenty small enough for me to handle at my age, and that was important when we chose to get a dog. Then she chose ME when I went to see my niece’s new brug brood. I’m delighted to find a site that caters to us mixed-breed lovers!
Have your dog attacked by another dog…I bet you’d do what you had to to get him off. Even if that meant kicking him. Pitts don’t let go. I personally would use pepper spray or a bat, if it came to it. Most dogs aren’t on leashes and I am going to protect my dog against any violent dog. HE’S MY FIRST PRIORITY. If owners were respnsible ther would be no need for any pf these actions…take them to the pound if you don’t want them. Most states require leashes. Some owners don’t think their Pitt and Rotts and other aggressive dogs need leashes because they know them. Until someone gets hurt. Bottom line obey the laws and we won’t have to worry about kicking abything but a ball.
max is VERY cute! i’m quite found of bulldogs since my friend got a puppy!
Hey, nice stuff! You´re dogs are really sweetly
Kind regards
Frank
I love the new design! G & G look adorable and puglicous!
Can’t wait to see what everyone posts!
I love this page!!!! I am NOT ALONE! I got on the pc to find a solution for my boy, Wrinkles. He just walks by me, and barely touches my pant leg; and when i look at my leg(that he touched) it is COVERED with fur!!!AAAHHHHH! I need help. I always wanted to shave him, but never seen a pug shaved. BUT I WILL NOW!!!! I LOVE THIS PAGE.
Love dogs! All kinds infact. People love dogs because they don’t talk. They respond when shown affection or love. They don’t have a choice due to the language barrier, so-to-speak.
That is why billions of dollars are spent every year on dogs. And, why not! I’m sure you wouldn’t want your dog to tell what they think of you!…LOL

I have a black pug named buckeye. well a new family moved in next door and they brought flees and my buckeye is highly allergic to flees and all the meds didnt help with getting rid of them. so he had broke out really really bad and I had to shave him. it has been about 3 months and the area I shaved has still not grown back yet. im sorry but it looks horrible. does anyone have any tips on getting his hair to grow back?
hi. I’m looking for Urban Pug puppies.Do you have any?
I own three pugs and one English bulldog. My house couldn’t live without the 100 count Malacetic wipes! Thank goodness I work for a vet hospital and get a discount.
Love your website!
Bailey has her own throw pillow that stays on the floor. She is 8 yrs. old and has had this since she was a puppy. The funny part is that she lays on top and gets one corner in her mouth and falls asleep like that. It’s just like a pacifier. The pillow has had to be patched several times.
please add the comments to the forum!
Wow..that “GOT FLEAS?” article was a waste of my time. It was just a big rant about how flea products didn’t work for them.
Hope you got rid of the fleas on your pugs!
When is the next pug meet up in NOLA? Satchmo and I would very much like to attend…
My Molly shed like crazy until I started giving her daily Omega 3 oil capsules. I get it down her using peanut butter. She loves it. She still shed some but a friend advised me to get her clipped and boy does that ever make a difference !!! She is like a new dog now. Feels better, has more entergy and if she still sheds I sure don’t see it. (She is a fawn) I take her to a dog groomer every 7 to 8 weeks and his rates are very reasonable. No hair what so ever and he only charges under $10.
Seeing these pictures of Pugs reminds me of my lost girl.. I had to put her down 3 years ago and sure do miss her. She use to go sailing with my ex and I and hated her lifejacket. I now have Australian Shepherds cause I needed to get a larger dog. But I do miss Missy.
Four pugs in my house means enough hair to create a new dog daily. I’m still a big fan of the swifter, but my roomba is a lifesaver. Cuts down on the amount of hair tumbleweeds, plus it’s the ultimate lazy way to clean the house.
My vet recommended a product by DermaPet called, EicosaCaps. They contain (right off the label here) Omega 2, 6 Fatty Acids Supplemented with Antioxidants: Vitamins C, E, Zinc and Garlic.
As far as a groomer? ha! I’ve got the garden hose in the back yard for the summer. In the winter, they’ll hop in the shower every chance they can.
GET A LIFE!!!
Thanks for the lead. My visitors might like this. I’ll check it out…
My pug also has a dislike for baths, but he also goes NUTS over the towel-down at the end. It is the funniest thing to be a part of – all that rolling around in the towel and grunting. Then he races around the house like a maniac as if that will help air dry him. He does the same thing after coming in form a bathroom break in the rain!
Really cute dogs. Keep up the reminders for daily votes for the Fr. Harry Tompson Parish Center, http://www.campaignforyourcause.com.
I have a QT pug of my own. He is two years old & has a strange pattern 4 a pug. But he sure is a QT!!
Matt and Trisha,
I was at Stephanie’s house, owner of Tony and Trixie, this weekend. Trixie was sleeping on the back of the couch with her head resting on the lampshade. I took a picture which I would like to submit.

We have a fawn pug 4 years old the shedding was awful I recently took her to the groomer for a bath and she asked if I wanted her shaved. I did not know this was possible since they are short haired dogs already. Why didnt I do this sooner? No more shedding and I am sure she is more comfortable.
I have a 5 year old pug and she rests her head on anything she can find! Books, couch pillows, clean laundry, you name it. she likes to use it as a pillow. Her favorite place for her noggin, however, is a shoe, it doesn’t matter who’s shoe or even if it’s on someone’s foot or not, she just thinks it’s the greatest.
We shave P&B. After the shave and groom, they tend to shave like crazy so we Furminate and then use lint roller…it works wonders!
My tiny black pug, Fly rests her head on ANYTHING. It is her favorite thing to do besides going for a car ride. Today in the kitchen, I was just standing there and she came up behind me and while standing, rested her chin on the back of my leg, looking up at me. When she is in the car, she will sit on my lap facing the front (while I am driving) and rest her head on the steering wheel. I only let her do it briefly a couple of times, because it is too dangerous, but she will always try. I have many photos of her resting her head in various places.
The other funny thing she does is “talk” to people when they come over or to me when I get home. I don’t know if it is a black pug trait, or if all pugs do this. My fawn pugs never did. She makes this “wooooowooo” sound with her lips pursed and her eyes bugged. It’s really funny. She also runs around the car 3 times when she thinks she is going for a ride. Just 3 times, no more, no less. A very funny pug.
Hello,
My name is michael bel. I currently play football for Michigian State and me and my girlfriend are moving in together this saturday, and she loves pugs, she had one when she was younger and would die to have one. i was wondering if you had any pugs that you where putting up for adoption. i would really love to get her one as a house warming gift, can you please email or call at (216)214-8929 me back soon as you get a chance. thank you
Our pugs rest their heads on anything they can find, too! It must be a trait that was bread into them a long time ago.
Bullett seems to find the most uncomfortable-looking positions to sleep just so he can rest his head on me. And Schroeder loves any sort of laundry or fabric that is on the floor. One dirty sock is better than just the floor to him! Schroeder is good for shoes, too, especially when people are still wearing them.
Beans loves to sit on the back of the couch and rest her head on the windowsill or on my or my husband’s shoulders. Sometimes when I lie down, she rests her head on my head or she’ll rest her head on my leg! Other favorites, lying on the floor, resting head on the coffeetable bottom shelf, on my desk chair, resting head on the armrest. I make sure her dog bed’s have a raised edge of some sort so she can take advantage of the head rest option. She also loves to rest her head on our feet when we’re at the computers.
As for shoes, she prefers to eat her treats….baby carrots especially, over our shoes, whether or feet are in them or not. My purse will also do, though, as I found out on day at work when I reached into my purse and came out with a cold, wet baby carrot half!
are these pugs really for free? if they are im am very interseted because everywhere I look they’re very expensive!

Hi! Love your site. It’s so cute! ( Gizmo and Gadget are adorable! )
I love this site! It’s so awesome! Gizmo and Gadget are so cute!
Right on! Our older pug, Caesar, has a very heavy head. So yes, he sets it on whatever’s handy. Just recently, that’s been our arms, our feet (if we’re sitting near him), and his pillow (when his little friend Louie kicks him off of it).
How cute!! When he sighs/puffs, does he sound like some crotchety old man? Miguel makes noises like that if he is tired and we want to love on him, like a “how dare you disturb me while I rest?!” kind of thing. How old is Gizmo?
a little bit.
gizmo and gadget are 3 and 3/4 years old (4 in october)
My little guy does the same thing. When we stay up late he becomes irritated. He is always the first one ready for bed around 9:30pm.
where does the pug meeting take place at?
the new orleans pug meetups are at Jefferson Feed, usually on sundays at 10am.
HI ALL,
I HAVE A 10 MONTH OLD MALE PUG CALLED CHEB,
HE IS THE BEST COMPANION ANYONE COULD HAVE,HE GOES ON ROAD TRIPS WITH ME.
ABOUT THE SHEDING OF THERE HAIR IT SURE WAS MAKING A MESS OF MY CAR & HOUSE.
BUT I STARTED RUBBING PURE JOJOBA OIL INTO HIS SKIN AFTER I FINISHED DRYING HIM.
I FOUND IT WORKED WELL,NO MORE SHEDING FOR AT LEAST A WEEK.
I GROW JOJOBA BUSHES ON MY FARM 10,000 OF THEM.IT’S A NATURAL MOISTURISER CLOSEST TO THE NATURAL OIL IN OUR SKIN.
ANY HOW GREAT WEB SITE
HAPPY PUGING
DEB & CHEB

I love pets and love to have them look good too………

Dogs are human being’s best friend and most trusted one so everybody should take care of them.
I absolutely love pugs. I have a twelve year old female fawn pug who I can’t imagine our family without. I have been looking for awhile to add another pug to our family. This shouldbe a great forum I love seeing all the pug pictures I love them so much even the pictures make me smile,
Randi
she luks happy wiff it.
Im am looking for a free pug puppy. We have a one year old fwan girl pug who needs a play mate! We located in washington state and would be willing to travel any where in the state!
awww. i have two pugs. a fawn and a black one. their names are daisy and poppy. and they should definitely be pug models.. =]
its nice, after going through this site even i would feel like having one pet
Ipsy is such a cute person. I absolutely love the name. I m companion to two. One fwn by the name of Chewbacca and a black that goes by lucky. Lucky is the elder sttesman and Chewy is the energetic and needdy one. They really make life sweeter. Be well nad all the best in your second yeaar. AAren’t you happy that your through with tort’s.
Is this a post or a commercial
“PETAHOLICA”, Innovative nomenclature.Its very encouraging, catchy has tremendous potential to attract and create enthusiastis readers. Bravo Zulu.
Our pug also has a bedtime routine. His is to wait on the floor until either my husband or I get into bed. The instant one of us hits that mattress he jumps up and runs to sit between our pillows. He’ll then stare at my husband until he gets some ear scratching. Once both of us are in bed he snuggles down between us usually sticking his nose under my husbands pillow and leave the rest of his body as a pillow for me. Eventually during the night he moves and most mornings I find his sprawled out but pressed against my side – and frequenlty our cat ends up sleeping on top of him against me too. It is a pile of pets!
Thanks for the tip, I signed up.
Mmmmm, sounds familar. Am convinced that Lucy is also planning world domination. she sits at my office desk with an inscrutable look on her face,… as if to say, …”silly humans, soon my time will come and you will be first!! “
Do you know that Gadget was featured on Cuteoverload.com on 09/03/07?
http://mfrost.typepad.com/cute_overload/2007/09/introducing-a-n.html#comments
They didn’t mention http://www.urbanpug.com and I think that’s likely because someone on the internet just submitted the pic without including additional info, Cuteoverload.com is usually very good about including a link to other webpages when there’s something cute to see. I suspect they just don’t know about urbanpug.com yet.
Maybe you can write her and let her know about your website so more people will be able to enjoy G&G
Linda,
Thanks so much for pointing that out to us!! We had no idea Gadget was featured on cute overload. How cool! I just sent them an email telling them about Gadget & Gizmo and urbanpug.com.
Thanks again,
Tricia (Gadget & Gizmo’s mom)

Hope Gizmo’s tumor is benign and he will be okay. We will be rooting for him!
Porky & Brownie
glad to hear the guy’s got an almost perfect clean slate. i hope gizmo’s tumor is benign and won’t be a problem.
let me just say, even before i adopted my pug, i’d read up on gizmo and gadget all the way from California and sighed every day for one. they REALLY are just too cute and too huggable.
Sorry to hear about Gizmo. I had a scare myself recently with one of my pugs. She had two bumps and the Vet thought that it might be mast cell. I was stressed for twenty extremely long days, but it turned out to be some strange infection. I hope that your our come is just as positive.
OMG! Luv the costume! I have a pug too (6 months old) Also luv the pics! The ones with tounges are always the best!
I really hope Gizmo is OK! I love seeing the photos of your pugs. And, Gadget is just like my Louis – big boned! Everyone tells me he is too fat for a pug, but my vet says he’s just fine. He weighs in at 23 and is super stocky. If they were kids, they’d have to buy husky jeans!
I Love pugs! I used to own 2 with my ex and lost mine as well. ![]()
I can’t afford to pay $500+ for a pug, but he would have tons of love and be spoiled. I live in Southern California. Thanks
Soooo cute. Were Bacchus’ ears and eyes always lopsided like they were in the pictures?
his ears were flopping around in different positions. it was pretty hard to get a decent shot of him, as he was really jumpy, looking around at every movement in a room full of pugs moving around…
I thought it was just our Pug Princess that loved corners. She’s forever trying to get under the computer desk just like Gizmo in that photo. We finally had to put a box under there because she kept unplugging cords! If she is sitting, she MUST be touching someone or something at all times. It’s sort of funny.
Maybe he was a gangster/mobster in a past life and doesn’t want to be shot from behind? He needs to be able to survey the room and who’s coming in and out.
Poor babe! It’s scary when you don’t know what’s happening with them. I’m glad things are already looking better.
Check out our new “project” http://thepawhaus.com
Sounds like a fold infection to me. Sadly, my little guy gets them quite easily if I don’t stay vigilant about cleaning his folds. He’s getting over one right now, actually.
This is so funny that I stumbled across this comment. My pug Mo is the same way. He positions himself leaning up against the closet door and he always sits in the corner of the bathroom near the tub. In the living room he lays in the corner and chews on his bone. How odd! I wonder if it is a pug thing ( :
Our girl Bess would get bug bites all the time and swell up like that. After several frantic trips to the vet, we started giving her half a Benadryl tablet and letting her be. I’m glad to know Gadget is feeling better.
Hi, I’m Dr. Martin’s assistant, I’m off today and was just thinking about Gadget. I hope he starts feeling better soon. I love seing Gadget and Gizmo when they come in for appointments, they are so precious it makes my day.
Thanks! That’s the best comment ever!
Oh no – I hope he feels better soon and you can find out what he is reacting too.
Kisses from Meimei and Miko
people who can have pugs are so lucky i really want one but i already have a dog and i want my dog that i have right now and i also want a pug what do i do can someone tell me please!!??
I am looking for a female pug to adopt. It will just be a housepet and I am ready to spoil them rotten. An adult female would be fine. Please email me if you have any. Prefer the fawn color pugs. Thank You
This site is like an answer to my prayers. I have a one year old pug named Chuey (pronounce Chewy) and like many of you he sheds enough to create another dog. He’s fawn. I think I’m going to use the tips of shaving him and giving him Omega 3 oil capsules. That sounds like a winner. If anyone has any other tips. I didn’t think shaving them was possible but now I know it is. Does anyone have any tips regarding your pug being hyper? Chuey is worse than a child who suffers from ADHD.
Poor Gadget, feel better soon.
I was browsing through the pug-a-day website and saw a certain Gizmo from New Orleans posted October 2! Hope Gadget is doing better!
Glad to hear that G&G are healthy. Congratulations on getting published. Way to go Matt. Lexy’s new position to sleep at night….ACROSS MY CHEST. Ugh! That’s a 22 lb weight and it hurts!!
So Otis has been acting really spooked lately he will not come in our bedroom. ( Which he used to love) Now he says up all night! I really need some ones help. How can I calm him now he walks around all night acting CRAZY. Also his tail is down. We have been trying to keep him up in the day but just wondering why every night this week at about 2:00am He starts going nuts… Any one have any tips?
Katie
really enjoy your site, and reading up on the two “g”’s …
good to know that they are both healthy … it’s nice of you to add your personal touch in regards to your being published…

You are going to win the costume contest. They look adorable (also hysterical) in those costumes.
That is crazy I have two pugs, a black and a fawn too, and their names are Daisy and Blackie!
I am confiden that Petfinder.com lists lots of rescue groups in the NYC area that have pugs that need homes.
OMG how adorable!!!
Wow — you two look truly spectacular and scary!
Sooo scaryyyy!!!
Which size did you choose?? I always have trouble with sizes for Coco.
We chose a size M.
Hello, I’m looking for a young male puggy. Free if posible. I’m in Northridge California.
Pugs are the greatest, aren’t they? I love the chin rest – our Sam will come up and if you put your hand out, he’ll lovingly rest his chin in the palm of your hand – and he’ll let you stay that way for as long as you can hold your hand out.
Hi, my family consists of me, my 2 parents and 2 sisters. My black lab was just hit by a car on my birthday (august) and passed on the way to the animal hospital. As a family pet/member we were thinking about getting a pug. I know how most of them cost 500-800$ but we dont have that kind of money. I’m not expecting a free pug because I know thats hard to come across. Where in western New York or rochester could i find a cheaper pug? Thanks so much!
Matt & Trish,
THanks for coming and sharing these photos on your site. You took some really great pictures. It was so much fun to see the pugs having such a great time. See you soon! Julie and Sassy Woo Woo
i was quite unaware of patholica till viewing this.u have done a great job!!!!1
i love pugs and im only 10 years old iv got one of my own its name is milo she is so cute but i dont have a website.
Nice Review of Newsletter. I found your site from the pages of review me which I saw and now I see that you have written a quite interesting review
ahhh tooo cute
Hi….i clicked on the link and nothing happened …i had to actually type the whole http://www.petaholica.com when then i could open the site. MAybe something to do with my IE i am not sure. anywy great article for pet lovers. Thanks for the article .
Shelbys too cute and awfully pt for a puppy.
well i am thinking of making that cake for my great danes 10th birthday, but im concerned it might make her sick. did it make your dog sick?
I bet if he could have gotten to the troll it would have been history!
Or his new play toy!
Roxy and I Love your Urban Pug TV and as always anything with our favorite Pugs Gizmo and Gadget. Thanks for making us laugh and bark on a regular basics………pugs and kisses…….The Highstreets
oohhh it u birthday isnt it?well happ happy birfday:)
I was going to say, in this day and age, there are millions of animals languishing in shelters all over the country. Why are people still going to breeders when you can give the gift of a stable home to a pug in a shelter? Just my opinion.
I just want to thank you for your site and these clips… they really brighten up my day!
Give your older pug a place to get away from the puppy. Puppies tend to keep coming and they may bother an older pug. Up the stairs, on the couch or just a room the puppy can’t follow.
Pugs tend to recognize another pug and accept them as family, in my experience at least. Good Luck and enjoy the puppy breath.
Be sure to ask lots of questions of a breeder. Ask to see the puppies and the parents. If they are registered then ask to see the papers. Ask about common health problems with pugs and if anything makes you feel uncomfortable then don’t buy from that breeder. Trust your gut is a good rule to live by.
I like them so much,if I meet them ,I will glad to kiss them.
Aw..this is way too cute.
I am so glad you are posting video of G&G very enjoyable!
I have a Mini Schnauzer… they all do this crazy run towards humans and dogs. They kick up dirt, choke themselves, ect like they are going to attack. Really they are trying to say hello as fast as possible then they are calm. Once they reach about 3 years of age they are just normal like your pugs… no matter the amount of training. I’ve seen many a Schauzer attacked and never one would even fight back. I do agree that if you do not see a human owner around take caution to any dog running at you and your loved ones. If someone is there try saying “hello, is your dog friendly?”. Some people say NO, most say yes. Let’s trust eachother too. The schnauzers just have to greet others or they are sad for the rest of the day.
It can look scary though… we are not just a bunch of people who don’t care of our dogs. I have noticed PUGS and MiniSchnauzers always make friends with each other fast. Same size?

never go wrong with puppies luvin’ string cheese!!!!!!!!!! =0
never go wrong with puppies luvin’ string cheese!!!!!!!!!! =)
it amazes me how pugs have so many similar personality traits! i haven’t given eleanor any string cheese yet. but i’m sure she would love it! loving the videos!
It sounded like Gadget said ‘yum’ after the second string cheese! Irresistably cute!
Excellent advice here! I’d add that #1, praise, is especially important. Positive training and praise are keys to success with potty training Pugs, and an “ethical bride” of a small food treat when a Pug potties is a great motivation.
I recently compiled several more tips on Pug house training, including a sample schedule for Schedule-Based Training and two videos with 20 minutes of Pug potty training tips and tricks — check ‘em out and let me know if they help!
Best,

Our biggest issue is skin allergies – mainly allergies to grains. We feed our pugs (and our Lhasa) Natural Balance Duck & Potato. I tried the Nutro and the Innova and they seemed to be too rich for our Sam – gave him the runs. Natural Balance has been a God-send – we don’t have tummy issues with, and it cuts down on the itchy skin big time, plus they love it. We buy ours from PetCo because they sell it, and because they have the free bag program when you buy so many if you’re in their “saver club” or whatever it is.
I feed Chicken Soup!!! I think the thing about food is ever dog is different and you do what works.
I feed my pug Gretchen Natural Balance Duck & Potato formula. She suffers from itchy skin, vomiting and frequent ear infections. When I started feeding her the food her symtoms decreased by 90%. Amazing. She also LOVES the food and she doesn’t put to much weight on.
How cute. They look like cuddly bears.
We started our Pug, Jack Tar, on the Wellness brand dry food, which seemed to cause quite a bit of flatulation. We spoke to our trainer and she recommended switching to Innova EVO. Immediately we noticed a change in his “gas”. It is a little bit pricey but you cut down on the portions because there are NO fillers in the food. It is as close to feeding your baby the raw diet, without all the work! I HIGHLY recommend this food!
G&G couldn’t handle Innova EVO dry no-grain, but they handle the wet just fine. Plus, it’s cheaper than Wellness. They’ve been on the “regular” wet innova, not the no-grain.
I haven’t noticed more or less gas, but everyone’s different.
I will agree that high quality food is worth the extra money!
Congratulations! Can’t wait for all the super cuteness!
The boys do look pretty cute in that bassinet. You might have to get another one for them.
This is an incredibly innovative site.
For someone like me who sends lots of snail mail cards…being a digitally divided senior…this improves my image with my wired friends..It is well worth (even cheap) for the service and creativity.
They e-mail you when the card is sent and when it’s opened.
Nice feature…they allow you to create cards with a dog and a cat.
best on your thanksgiving (a great selection of holiday cards too),
clee
Our puggies Max and Bert have been raw-fed for about a year. They are sleeker, happier, and have less skin infections and eye goo.
It’s a jump at first, but if you think about it they are build for ripping and tearing — eating the bones, feathers and all. Hand them a chicken leg and they’re the happiest little guys in the world.
Before you get your knickers in a twist, read some of the books or sites — we were very skeptical at first, too. If you’re queasy just get some boneless/skinless chicken breasts, cube, and put them in the dish.
An added bonus is that the volume of poo goes way, way down. And it’s little whiteish light turds, not smelly or gooey.

Awww looks like a dog bed to me!
Congrats on the new human baby too.
Congratulations on the pending arrival! I can’t wait to see pug/baby photos…pugs are so sweet with babies! You may, however, want to consider getting a second bassinet to sit right next to the one for the baby, since it’s unlikely that all three will fit inside one and the pugs will want to be snuggy with their new sister.
Look-at-that-face…I could stare at this face allllll my life and never get bored. I will pull his cheeks, squeeeeeze his face and spank that little tush. I must get myself this chappy…
Lovely..cute….sweeet…adorable and I’ll pinch his cheeks and pull his face..oooooooooohhhh, toooo cute for words…muah!!!

These guys are so cute. How do you get them to be this chubby? I have a baby boy pug. He is on a diet right now-dog food diet. I’m having second thoughts though after seeing this video
Gadget is big — not every pug will ever look like him. People think he’s fat, and yes, he’s a bit overweight, but if you feel his ribcage, it’s very broad compared to other pugs.
I lost my beloved Pug Bailey over three months now. How do I get over the pain and grief of losing my companion and best friend? I miss him terribly and feel angry that he was only 7 1/2 years old when he got sick. I called and notified my breeder that he was sick and when he passed away I sent her a note. She did not even acknowledge that she received the note and did not bother to post her condolences on his website. This makes me furious. Help!
are them pug free
We have two pugs..one fawn and one black. Their names are Benjamin and Mordechai. We can’t imagine life without our “boys”.
Somehow, we got to calling our pug Sophie “Bear,” I think it came about becomes sometimes she just shuffles around and snuffles like one. But it seemed to stick!
My pug’s name is Milo but my family and i also call him Puff (puffy), Little Doggie, and Monkeypug!
have you heard of Natalie Dee? she has two pugs and does the cutest drawings daily where her little darlings appear often! i seem to remember one of them cooking before.
My pug is named Morty…I call him Snorty or Puglet! =0)
I call my pug Gretchen… puggy poo or Gretchie poo.
When Lucy is misbehaving she becomes Lucille or Lucy Marie and Tuffy becomes Tuffy Joseph. Otherwise, Lucy is Lucy baby, Lucy girl, Lovely Luc. Tuffy is the dribbler and the cuddler. They both also responds to “The Pups.
We call our 4-yr-old pug named Yoshi…stinky and gooba and our new 12-week old puppy named Kiko Bean…chompers and little bean.
my pug’s name is ocho and his nick name is ocheezeemo and cheesey, och , ocheezeemaster etc.
I remember hearing a while ago that Air France is the only airline thtat allows dogs to be carried in the cabin (obviously not big dogs like Rottweilers, but a pug should be fine).
I’ve just checked their website and it confirms that they accept dogs in the cabin. You’d probably need to fly to Paris and then catch a connection to London and it will probably cost you – but of course it’s worth it to make sure your pug is well-cared for on the journey!
I fly with my pug internationally with American 3 times per year. He flies as an on flight and as my carry-on. I would make sure that he is fine in the carrier so that you dont have to drug him, but my pug is fine and I have never been worried.
I would check out a new company called “Dogtravel Company.” They are at http://www.dogtravelcompany.net.
A buddy of mine just joined the other day and the company provides flights where your dog can sit in the cabin in the seat next to you.
I don’t know if they fly overseas or not. My buddy is going to be flying with them this summer to Canada.
Hope this helps.
Hey!!
That’s the most cutest picture ever!! My boyfriend and I have a fawn apricot pug too and his name is Gizmo. Just thought to let you know that your article made me smile!!
Thanks ya,

I know a couple that traveled from the UK to the US on the Queen Mary II cruise ship, which had a kennel and a number of other luxuries for animals. Check with them! Their website is http://www.dennyandcharlie.com, e-mail Richard and ask him.
She needs to check what Defra (the relevant UK agency) has to say about it. They require pets to be flown cargo. Since she said she went through the bloodwork & stuff previously, I am surprised she didn’t realize this???
That Defra link seems to not be clickable? Anyway, it’s: http://www.defra.gov.uk/animalh/quarantine/pets/index.htm
My 6 month old puglet, Cash, gets called “Casher Masher” and “Booger” and “Boogerface.”
Oh and also “Baconator”…?
we just got a pug puppy from a breeder — she has a scratched cornea — we were warned that it might lead to permanent scarring and blindness in that eye. we are taking to an eye specialist tomorrow — please tell me that it is going to heal and she is going to be able to see.
I really think that she is special and I would like to know more about her. How old she is, are there any other dogs in the house?, Is she different than non-albino pugs? If so, how?
Yeah, I would like to know more about her. She is really cute! Never have seen an albino pug before.
hello, this is Mischa’s owner…i’m very excited that you all are interested in her!….she is very unique and is very special to me….i’ll answer a few question that people have asked…
How old is she?…. she is 5 months old
Are there any other dogs in the house? ….. no, though my boyfriend and I would like to get another pug in the near future….
Is she different from non-albino pugs?…. umm that i’m not sure…do you mean character/personality wise?…this is the first time i’ve ever owned a pug..
If anyone has any more question about Mischa feel free to e-mail me! i love talking about her!
just a random note : her mother ended up having 5 litters of puppies in total….25 puppies in total and Mischa was the only albino pug…the rest were all fawn coloured like BOTH of her parents…weird eh?!
My 7-year old pug’s name is Pugsley. He’s mad since we named him such a common name, he’s like the 4th Pugsley in his class.
We call him Bug, Monkey, PugsleyButt and of course, the Notorious P.U.G.
I am in the process of purchasing a white pug from Pennsylvania. She is AKC registered. Is Mischa AKC and are you planning on breeding her?
I am planning on breeding her once she is ready…she isn’t AKC registered because we are Canadian, not American….
I think this pug has already had his share of “treats”! Ha-ha, all pugs must beg!
This is the funniest thing I have seen all year! What wonderful dogs you have (& production skills.) Keep the pug-drama coming!
That’s a peahen, not a peacock.
way cute.
looking for a pug for my wife she really adores them. live in western new york buffalo area , would appreciate any help in locating some reliable breeders thank you ,hope someone can help
Having had numerous pugs over the years, I highly recommend having at least two at a time. Pugs do better in a pack, not alone. And two are much easier to raise than one; they provide much needed companionship for each other. Boscoe and Linus would agree with me (my pug boys)!
You are aware that she may herself have health problems oe may pass on health problems if bred? Yes, she is cute, but you might want to think before breeding her. I was wondering if she is pure pug? Maybe one of these puggles? She is a real cutie and I’m sure is a loving pet.
I feed Wellness to my pugs Winnie and Stewie and I’m VERY happy with the results. They are both little piggies, so I don’t have a lot of problems with getting them to eat anything, but I do watch their treats and food intake for weight reasons. (Plus I don’t allow them to have foods with by-products in them).
I buy the small cans of Wellness Chicken & Sweet potato food and feed 1/4 can to each dog twice daily. With the canned food, I mix the Wellness LIGHT Chicken dry food and the Wellness Chicken SuperFive dry food. I mix the two dried foods together and feed about 1/2 (maybe a little less actually) twice daily. I think the weight management and the regulary dry together have been successful in keeping their weights healthy. Also, in the past with some of my other pugs, simply going to an all LIGHT food really affected their coat and skin because they have less of the fatty acids necessary for coat/skin oil. It dried out one of my pug’s skin terribly, and I don’t have that problem when I mix it with regular.
For treats, I get Wellness Apples, Yogurt & banana biscuits and a brand called SOJOS. The Sojos biscuits are wonderful little bones (nice and small for pugs and also not too many calories) that come in 4 flavors. here is the website. I highly recommend them : http://www.sojos.com
I also feed Winnie baby carrots and melon (she loves cantelope and honeydew). She likes peas as well. Stewie will have NONE of that. If he had his way, he would have cupcakes hooked up to a feeding tube that could run into his body 24 hours a day. He likes cake—your standard carbs. Winnie is the fruit bat so that offers me a few more options to mix up their treats so they don’t feel bored.
hello
We travel from Chicago to Belgium twice a year with our pug Olive. Lufthansa and KLM/Northwest are the only airlines that I know of that allow dogs in the cabin for overseas flights. I always have to go backwards and lay-over in Frankfurt with Lufthansa, but it is worth it. Oh and she is over the weight limit, which is something like 17 pounds (?), but she has always been allowed to come anyway. Oh, and they never even look at the paperwork, but you should have it just in case. All they really need its the health cert which includes a current rabies vaccination.
That is just so cute. I think I’ll try it with my pug Gretchen.
Update: Gizmo was fine, eventually. We had to give him drops for a while, but it healed just fine.
Happy Boxing Day.
We hope you haded a Merry Christmas.
yes she is a pure pug…and i am aware of health problems
sorry i wasnt logged on when i posted my last comment
I think she’s adorable. My family is owned by two pugs–one black and one fawn. Your Mischa is really something special.
this happened to my eleanor too! it also seemed like it came out of nowhere. i had actually never even heard of the anal glands before that. but i think i read somewhere that you can usually tell when they need the glands cleaned out when they start to drag their butts alot. which is what eleanor has been doing lately so i’ll probably take her to the groomer soon. poor gadget. hope he’s feeling better!
Congrats on the pregnancy!! Best of wishes to you both:)
I haven’t had that happen yet to my guys (knock on wood) but I find sometimes when they sit on me – but squarely against my stomach or arm, i end up with what almost could be poo on me, a little stain, like liquid. (sorry to be gross!). I think it may be the anal glands.. has that ever happened to your babies?
Lex, that is anal gland goo. Don’t get to close, as it is VERY pungent.
My little boy had very bad, frequently recurring anal gland problems, so much so that we had them removed this past July. It’s a totally elective surgery with some real risks. But once they got in, they realized, with him, it was a good choice to remove them. One of his glands was the size of a mastiff’s, and it likely was quite uncomfortable! He made a full recovery, and I dare say he was feeling better pretty quickly.
I’m in the same predicament. I’m flying from the US to Australia in April. I also have a pug. All his paperwork is in order, he’s healthy and fine but we’re having a hard time trying to find a flight for him, or how we should go about getting him to Sydney. Should he fly with us on the same flight or send him earlier. He needs to be in Quarantine for a min. of 30 days once he reaches AU. I have no choice about that.
So… has anyone found a solution as to what’s best for a pug? Cargo or should he fly in the cabin with me? We are also concerned with cost as well. Is it cheaper to put him on a separate flight to Sydney or to fly with us and check him in as cargo or baggage?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
if this pic cums up (lol
its my pug sid (after sid vicious)
hes soo weird lol. he dus alot of strange things, like farting, smellin it and runnin away lol
he also dances!!! we tot him to do that wen he was a puppy lol
i love pugs
This is hilarious. He does look super content, pugs are the best
No offense, but the Bjorn is that last thing that tubby fellow needs. He needs walkies, and then more walkies. Then a small serving of low-cal pet food. And then more walkies.
they are so cute and fat. i love it.
Aw! Gizmo and Gadget make great models/spokespugs! They should use them in the adverts!
Love Weeny and Daisy xx xx
Riley Max scratched his eye and it looked exactly like an eye ulcer, but the Vet said it was not an ulcer and just a scratch. She gave us an antibiotic ointment to use and his eyed did heal. But now, the eye has that blue cloudiness in it and the ointment has not cleared it. I am wondering if maybe the ointment caused it or should we go back to the vet for a second injury. Any suggestions?
Cute story!
Hehe! We think that your guess is right, and if we had a phone, thats where we’d call too!
Love Weeny and Daisy xx xx
My pug would order pizza and beer. She like’s chinese, but that’s nothing compared to pizza and beer. If she ever got a hold of my cell phone, I’d have to hide the credit card. Pizza Hut is running a special this week…
hey i love pugs they are the cutest. dose this website have virtual pugs you should put them on because it would be fun to have a fake pug to play with online. but that is my opinion.
Haha my guys are all about cheese! God help you if you have a slice of cheese and you are on the couch, you get swarmed! I am glad they still have enough manners not to try and snatch it away! My guys recognize our car alarms, so when I come home and beep the car, they are waiting for me at the door, the cat too.
They also recognize the sound of my husband’s car too, he doesn’t have an alarm, which is really impressive since our road isn’t that quiet!!
My girl LOVES beer!!! She loves going to softball with us, after, she makes the rounds licking the cans of people who aren’t paying attention
Haha good job Gadget! He looks so proud with himself!
I think that is so interesting about the dog barking.. I can only tell with one pug, Indy. We are still working on understanding Gus.
Indy has her ‘hurry up i have to pee’ bark, ‘hurry up and feed me bark’, and my all time fave, ‘this is my toy but you can try and take it from me when we play’ bark.
What she does that I love, is the talking. Its not really a growl or a bark, but she gets going and it’s the cutest thing. It usually ends with a howl. ![]()
Do Gadget and Gizmo talk?
i love all the cute pug pictures
I definitely understand Lucy’s barks. She got a “look at me” bark, “my brother stole my ball” bark, “something is out of place in the house”, and “someone is outside” bark. Tuffy has his “someone is outside bark”, but generally I can tell more of what he is thinking by his actions.
Did you see that Gadget’s picture is featured in the Wikipedia article/definition/section about pugs.
Are these Omega-3 pills for humans? I’m so glad to know other people have the shedding issues. I have a 2 y.o. fawn male I just adopted and had no idea how much he would shed!! I love him to death, but it’s driving me crazy!
Star, do you walk him enough? Spud was super hyper when I first got him. I started to walk/run with him 2 times a day (for about 20-30 minutes) and that helped a lot. Thanks everyone.These are great ideas!
Our pug’s name is Jasper. We call him Jassy, Jassy pooh-bear, Jasper Mullin (his original owner’s name), J.P., Hey You (only when him and the other children of the house are being holy terrors and it’s quicker than roll call). We just don’t call him late for dinner!
Hey! I just watched the funniest video! Check out the latest adventure of Mookie and Sam (two of the world’s cutest dogs) on youtube. Their new video is called “Sam goes to Texas” and it’s really cute and funny!

It helps to introduce pets to baby smells and sounds before the baby actually comes home. Try getting the smell of baby power and the sound of a baby in the house before hand. Also, you can bring home a blanket or piece of clothing before the baby comes home. Probably most important is to not ignore them once the baby is there (as hard as that might be at first!)
Good Luck.
I just got now read an article in “Modern Dog” winter 2007/08 page 86 Sibling Revelry “Arf, meet baby” by Melanie Carson. It has some good tips about bringing a baby home to meet their 4-legged brothers and sisters. I myself, when I brought both my daughters home from the hospital, I laid them down on a baby blanket on the floor and as I completely undressed them let my two pekes watch, smell, lick, taste, and paw everything I was doing as I was talking to the babies and the pekes. As soon as the girls were naked I sat back and let the dogs look and lick them and I talked and played with the pekes and told them the girls names and that they were here to stay. After that I had no problems. In fact the pekes each took to sleeping under the cribs (trading off once in awhile) and were great watch dogs for the girls and would not let them stray to far when they got older. Hope all goes just as well for you with Gizmo and Gadget!
My pug also has a scratched eye. We took her to the vet and got the ointment as well. It’s been a week and the eye is starting to swell. She has the blue haze too. My parents Brittany was allergic to the eye ointment and was given another medicine. do you think my pug is having the same reaction?
Your learnings will be greatly appreciated. We are expecting in 2 months and we also have two demanding pugs. The world revolves around them at home and they too, will be experiencing a rude awakening. I’ve heard of the baby smells and to make sure you spend at least 5-10 minutes of dedicated attention to them. Include them on the walks, if they are used to sitting on the coach, maybe start adjusting them sitting next to you instead of on your lap now? Can’t wait to here how it goes.
From Rex & Ruby’s mom in Oregon
I check OwnedByPugs.com and Urban Pug daily for my pug picture fix.
Our puggy blog is http://weenyanddaisy.blogspot.com/ everyone is very welcome to come and say hi!
Love weeny and Daisy xx xx
I love bringing up shelby : http://winniewong.typepad.com
I love gopugyourself.com too! Shelby is adorable and will get me by while Gizmo and Gadget are eagerly awaiting the new baby! Congrats and best wishes!
Congrats on your little one! The photo is precious and I’m glad to hear they are interested in her. It was cute to hear gadget barked at her…my male pug Tango is like that if something moves that was still. I think that would be typical of wanting to sit on or near her as pugs don’t seem to know any other way. Hope all continues well! How are they when she cries?
Welcome Martine! As they say in “Casablanca,” I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
Our pug has now been through two newborns returning home with us and for the first one he seemed really interested, for the second it was “been there, done that”. He is SOOOO good with the kids though. My youngest is a year old now and loves to just climb on him or lay on him like a big pillow.
BTW, we had a chair like that for my son when he was a newborn and our dog LOVED to sleep in it. I actually felt a little guilty getting rid of of because the dog liked it so much. I posted about it way back when…
Adding my congratulations to the rest. The picture/s are great. I’m so happy to hear that your boys are taking to Martine (what a pretty name!) so well. Best wishes to you all.
Congratulations on a beautiful baby girl. G&G will be fine with her. My pug, BonnieBoo loves all of my grandbabies and is very gentle and loving with each on. She loved to watch them as tiny babies and was also startled when the wee on would move.
Thank you for your wonderful web site. We enjoy it so much. Now we have even more to enjoy with Martine.
BonnieBoo and Mom (Donna)

What sweet faces!
I do not know if these pugs are for sale, but you can always call dulittle pugs and ask for any related to Gizmo or Gadget.
http://members.aol.com/dulittlepugs/dulittle.htm
They are the breeders we recommend for people in southern louisiana.
I want to kiss every one of them. The screen will not do. I want to smush their little puggie faces up in mine. Thanks for sharing the pic — they’re beautiful grandpuppies.
I think your concerns have been answered. It looks like your younger family members are doing OK. Good luck on the Bar Exam!
Hello Fellow “Puggers”,
I just finished creating a templated book that you can use for your Pug Pics. Let me know what you think!
Power the the Pets!!!
The Pet Book Lady
That is so sweet! I hope everyone is adjusting smoothly (sounds like it so far)!
Good luck on the exam!
How adorable she is such a beautiful baby. I’m sure you two will make as wonderful parents to her as you are to your four legged babies. I really enjoy reading your blog and looking at the pictures. Congratulations and good luck on the Bar exam!
Oh that picture is darling…I especially love the design of the fabric she is sleeping on and the pug watching over her.
Such a wonderful picture! And I’m glad that everyone is getting along….very important stuff……
She is actually sleeping on a Boppy pillow. The cover came with the pillow (but you can buy replacements, of course!)
SO cute!
M Miller? where was this picture taken, and are these pugs yours?
These two little guys arn’t from Australia are they .. Canberra or Sydney by any chance? they look a little too familiar. I know that might sound funny to a non-pug owner but you know your pugs when you see them .. and you know their cancel supplied dog tags for the ACT as well.
What a beautiful baby! This is a wonderful picture. Pugs love to have children to protect and love. My Bonnie loves all of my (her) grandbabies and they love her. Congratulation on you beautiful baby girl. Good luck with the exam.
Your family of 5 are beautiful. Don’t change a thing. Keep those pictures coming. Your Daughter is beautiful and Roxy and I look forward to seeing pictures of her and G&G everyday. Thank you for sharing your family with us.
All the best to you and your wonderful family.
Lynn and Roxy
Don’t you dare stop posting pug/baby pictures — they’re the highlight of my day! Love this one…what a puggie pose.
Ditto. I think the pictures reflect your family as it is now–and you are right pug+baby=cute! In support, the Mardi Gras picture of all three was quite popular with a friend from Memphis who is very serious about celebrating Mardi Gras. She loved the beads being sported by all in the picture.
There are pictures with the Gymini on Amazon that show other babies and pets sharing the space
. I think that G and G have such expressive faces that I can see how you couldn’t pass up pictures like this. She appears to be noticing them also.
So sweet! Keep the pictures coming.
WOW – This is the cutest thing I’ve seen all day! So so so cute! Congratulations!
That is so funny and cute. I love how pugs just want to be with people.
LOL!
I have the most hilarious picture in my head of Gadget marching across the bed, across your wife to get to the object of his attention
I grew up with dogs and since I got married, I been trying to persuade my wife to get one but always use the kids as an excuse. Now, my youngest kids is 2 yrs old and I finally persuade her to get a dog but she only agreed to a Pug, So if anybody can help me get a cheap pug or free one. Pls help, Thanks, Albert
Dear Puggies,
Your babie doesn’t have any wrinkles. But its still really cute! Maybe you are watching it and waiting for wrinkles to develop?
love
Knuckles the chihuahua
Thanks. I know I had the problems with my pug. I am not sure what it is but they seem to be fairly teritorial. I actually bought mine from bestdogbellybands.com
Our 11 year old Buckster has an infected a.g. and you know how smelly that is. We have tried 3 different treatments of antibiotics to no avail. They tell us that surgery is very risky and no guarantee. We are afraid he will be incontinent afterwards. They don’t really like to remove both because of the possibilitie being higher with incont. How old was your’s when he had surgery. Age can be a factor as well.
i love pugs im getting one soon
My dog webkinz name is africa north>lol
That’s a great picture! Martine looks so alert and looks as if she is watching over as Gizmo naps. Too Cute!
We’ve had two episodes like this with Max. The first one wasn’t that bad, so we just waited until morning to take him to the vet. By morning he was fine. The next one was a little worse so we called the vet and gave him a Benadryl. We’ll see what happens. Hopefully, he’ll be okay.
Good luck with your little one!
Well, the basket is being used for storage–just not exactly what was intended
.
Gizmo is sooo lucky to have a place so close to baby, so he won’t feel left out. Its a perfect hideaway!
I have a young pug who, last year got an ear infection. He was given temaril and had the same symptoms as your dog. Three weeks later we found out he had diabetes. You need to have his sugar tested. zi would truly hate for anyone to go through what we did.
does those images come as magnets? (for the car)
Yes. Shaving is great for the long hair shedding. The only problem is in the winter. I thought about the Omega-3 pills but haven’t tried them, but I will now. Thank you for this info.
That is the cutest picture. G and G are her guardians.
Our pug blog is http://HarryPugalicious.blogspot.com. It’s relatively new but Harry really wants to make more pug friends.
ALL of your babies are so cute
Our pug, named Gizmo as well, does the same thing. But he only does it when he is disciplined. Like it’s his way of say “you can’t stop me from chewing or jumping on what I want!”
Is this a health problem or just a quirk? Do you have any idea?
Hi Albert,
I have a 2 year old male pup who has grow up with 2 girls they are ages 6 & 9 now he is great with kids other dogs and cats. If you are interested in him please feel free to give me a call. I will give him to a great home that will promise to give him lots of love he sleeps with me or my girls every night. Why am I giving him away is that I am getting into the Sphynx cat breeding business and he needs alots of love.
Martine will know and love pugs and the pug scent when she grows up, especially after this kind of snuggling, and I’ll be willing to bet that the boys, (if push comes to shove) already love her and would defend her if the need arose.
i am looking for any free dog that is a young
i am looking for a free pug puppy so if you are looking to give one away please email me at adegrafft@hotmail.com thank you i am looking for a male or female or male pug
i love the pug

Hello, I live in North Carolina & we have been looking for a pug. Since are last pug had been hit by a car a couple yrs ago, my kids & I have still been sad every since. We cant afford the going price for a pug, but can afford a little something. Please email me back with any type of information, it would greatly be appreciated. Thank you, Dawn dmruttennc@adelphia.net
Oh i love it!! Especially the 2nd picture where he is lookin at you, you can just hear the though process. “Why can’t I eat the bunny dad??”
Nice review.
I agree, you are going to have serious “cute overload” next year if they both (or all three!) have bunny ears.
So, so cute. I love the pics. Such a sweet little face.
hehe yeah he needs to lay off the human food! Poor guy.
Awwww! Too, too, WAY too cute! Sweet little puggie pie!
oh my good lord, I just discovered urban pug, and not only do I want to snuggle the wrinkles right off your pugs, but I adore your daughter. she is so precious and tiny and pink.
i am dawns daughter please give us a free pug male or female.we can afford dog food and toys and care and other.i am bored every day i am only 9.please email my mom up above or call at my mom cell it is 682-1910.please give us a pug and thank you.
Lexy has good company, Good Boy Norman and Benjamin (Owned by Pugs) are 7 and 6 today also.
Happy Birthday Lexi! That’s a pretty fancy throne you have there
What a big pug! Very cute. I just got a pug, his name is Herbie. You can check out more about him on my blog http://pursnsnorts.blogspot.com. I just got him this month. He dressed up for Easter too. He’s a lot of fun. We also have two cats, they’re currently adjusting to him, he’s pretty much adjusted to them LOL.
We have two pugs. Our 7 year old male had a scratched cornea last fall and after drops and ointment in healed in about three weeks. The 2 year old female appeared to have the same symptoms last week but has a much more serious infection called a melting ulcer of the cornea. She’s now on two kinds of drops, an ointment and an oral antibiotic. /She’s got the Elizabethan collar on too. The prognosis with this condition is not good. There’s a chance the eye might rupture and have to be removed. Needless to say this is freaking us out. We’re following all the orders of the specialist but I don’t see any improvement. Apparantly this just happens spontaneously sometimes. Be glad if your pug just has a scratched eye and not this.
Happy happy birthday!

Hi there, I am looking into moving to Australia from Europe (Denmark) and am absolutely devastated to find out about their regulations. Still looking into it, but as far as I have understood, her flying in cabin is not an option, not because airlines would not allow it, because many do, but because the authorities in OZ will not allow it.
There are no direct flights between Denmark and Australia. The first flight is about 11 hrs, then change in e.g. Bangkok, where she cannot get out of the cage, and I will not be allowed to see her. If the cage’s seal is broken, she will be flown right back to Denmark. Next flight (Bangkok to Sydney) is about 9 hrs, so she would be in the cage for 24-30 hrs and not be allowed out, and be alone the whole time, and in cargo. I am devastated and don’t know what to do. Also, having read about the breathing/flying etc.
If anyone has experience taking a pug from Europe to Australia, I would love to hear from you. I wish I could fly cargo too. Or take a cruise or other boat.
Any knowledge VERY welcome
Thanks a lot and have a great day
Mette

Great article and excellent advice!
That is so true. My parents bought their toy poodles through a reputable breeder and they still talk to her. There were told they could call or email if they ever have questions or worries.
Unfortunately both my pugs aren’t from reputable breeders. One is a puppy mill dog from Quebec, she was sold through a puppy broker. And the other was from a local breeder who thought it would be fun to breed her dog. The parents were pure bred with papers, my puppy however was never registered at all. Since I have no plans on showing him, it’s not an issue.
The only problem I found was lack of support or knowledge from the breeder. I didn’t expect any from the broker, we bought Indy to get her out of there. (She was the smallest dog there).
Personally I think some of the crosses are cruel.. a flat faced dog bred with a long snout dog?? I have seen a few, as puppies they are cute, but they look so awkward!
Thanks for the information. I am starting to look for a pug. I have always wanted one but we not able to. Now that I am getting closer to being able to get a pug this information is very helpful! Thanks!
Don’t forget rescued pugs! Petfinder.com is a great resource when looking to expand your furry family. They have dogs of all ages and the fee you pay for your animal often goes towards rescuing another animal.
The best part is that the rescue agencies disclose any health issues/personality quirks up front. They want to place these pugs in “forever homes” and it’s in their best intersts to ensure you adopt the right animal for your needs/lifestyle.
Many of the animals have clean bills of health and are great with other dogs/children (like our rescue, Angie). Not only are you doing a great thing by giving a rescued pet a home, you’re also taking much of the guess work (ie: will this dog get along with my cats?)out of the adoption process.
Hello there! We found your blog on Chewie’s blog and wanted to come by and say wooooooooooof!!
You have lots of cute pictures!! We love the ones with human pup.
Momo & Pinot
Read my blog….. if you are in the U.S. and want to fly to Australia…. you’ll have no choice but to fly your pug using a Pet Transport Service. Practically forced into it.
USDA will not allow a connecting flight, it has to be Direct.
Qantas flies direct but will not fly a Pug (or any flat nosed animal)
Air New Zealand will fly a pug but their government requires the use of a Pet Transport Company, thereby making the initial cost phenominal! Be prepared! I’m struggling right now as it is!
Again…… read my blog…. good luck!
YES! Please remember to check for rescued pugs before you make a final decision.
There are lots of great pets in need of homes.
What a wonderful family picture! G&G greeting THEIR baby sister! Pugs are so loving with children. My Bonnie adores our grandgirls.
It’s nice to see Gizmo and Gadget saying hi to martine in a calm manner.
So adorable!
We are fostering a little pug named Ming (we added Kong because she’s black and looks like a little gorilla)…..we may adopt her. So far everything is going great….she’s 3 and very well mannered.
But there is a milky blue hue in her eyes….nothing too overwhelming, but in direct light you can see it. We are wondering if it’s natural or if it may be the early stages of an eye problem. Part of us is very uncertain about adopting Ming Kong because of all the health problems pugs can get….but we’ve both wanted a pug for years and finally have a chance at getting one.
I have a white male pug which is not AKC registered, however, he is a genuine white pug, see the pictures in my album:
http://www.wretch.cc/album/album.php?id=cathya&book=19
http://www.wretch.cc/album/album.php?id=cathya&book=24
Before I like to neuter him later this year, I want to see if there is any breeder interested in breeding white pup puppy with mine. If you do, please contact me.
[...] G&G are still getting along well with the Tripett Dog Food that I reviewed a while ago. We have a bunch of cans of wellness, so they still get that sometimes, [...]
That is so cute. It is really interesting to watch the process by which dogs bond with new human friends. When my boyfriend first started coming over a lot, my dog Alfie was friendly, but a little wary, and always greeted me first. Now it’s 11 months later it’s like, “Hey, he’s here! Oh hi, mom, we love you too!” Nice to see your pugs are taking a liking to the new member of your family.
Love that picture.
[...] To learn how to tell a good from bad breeders and for more about why it is so important, you absolutely need to read my earlier article on pug breeders. [...]
You can also check out my pug Diego’s blog at http://diegopug.wordpress.com/.
He’s 4 months old. And is so much fun to live with.
Thanks for the suggestion, I added a link to your article to my blog.
I am so glad you all post this information here. So many people think about the immediate and not the long term when it comes to purchasing a pug.
It is sooo true! Indy has a luxating petella and it won’t be covered by pet insurance since it was diagnosed before hand.
Mischa is so cute, I just can’t look at her enough. It is really amazing to see an albino pug. Did you own her mom and dad or did you purchase her from someone? If you purchased her, how much did you pay for her(if you don’t mind me asking)? Me and my husband have 2 pugs that we breed, they have only had 2 litters, but if she was to have a baby like Mischa I would definately keep it. She is a one of a kind.
BRAVO on an excellent blog post! I feature a rescue pug on my blog every Wednesday and am linking this post right now!
Fantastic post, and I’m hoping that the fast-food analogy hits home. For anyone who needs more of a push: my then-bf, now-husband bought a backyard pug puppy, although I begged him not to. After months of agony and thousands in vet bills, she died in our arms four years later from a congenital and incurable brain disease that a reputable breeder would have bred out of the line. He learned the saddest lesson imaginable. If you want a purebred dog and can’t find a rescue, support real breeders, who are dedicated to the betterment of the breed. (Happy ending: we now have a well-bred and healthy pug boy, after months of research and screening.)
The white pug is of course cute, but the whole point of the entry was about breeding being left to serious breeders, who study their breeding lineage, cull their litters, and track the people they sell to for life, enforcing spay/neuter contracts for pet quality sale animals. (White pugs are not recognized in the breed standard, btw). Also, the Humane Society of the US estimates that about 5million unwanted animals are killed in shelters each year–many, many of these purebreds who are the offspring or great-offspring (etc) of pet-breeders. So I am hoping that the nice bloggers with the gorgeous pugs will remove the post, before somebody decides to have a “fun” litter. Nothing against the darling white pug, but have a conscience, here.
Rescue pugs may not be free but they are way cheaper than the cheapest of backyard breeders or puppy millers, & you get the added satisfaction of knowing you are saving a life instead of treating animals like commodities to be bought & sold.
Your puggies are adorable!
Thank heavens you said the picture included both Gadget AND Gizmo–at first I thought that Gadget had acquired a fur hat! One of those shaped by like a jesters cap
Kudos to you for posting this. There needs to be a greater public understanding of the ultimate price pug owners (and the pugs themselves) pay when they come from irresponsible breeding operations. Many pugs pay with their lives after succumbing to genetic defects/diseases at young ages.
Urban Pug is doing a stellar job of publicly addressing the issue. Great use of your website!
I am a foster family for a pug rescue and I urge everyone to adopt a pug instead of going to a breeder. We recently rescued 13 pugs from a breeder, most of them malnourished and kept in poor conditions. The adoption fee is $250, which rarely covers any of the expenses that pugs incur while in our care. Rescue’s are overloaded with pugs, young and old, who need loving homes. Please consider rescuing a pug first.
Love the cushions, they are so cute! We bought a beige microfibre couch since it was supposedly cat proofe! It turns out it was, but our cats are dark. The pug fur blends right in though!
I haven’t had a problem with stains or anything so far (its been 3 years). My girlfriend had almost the exact same couch and it didn’t last 2 years, she has a 3 year old.
Enjoy your new couches!!
I agree that leather couches are a much better choice. I used to have microfiber but just one pug put an end to that. I now have 3 pugs (Petey 9, Lucas 3, Nick 4) and a caramel colored leather sofa that has stood up extremely well to pug drool and snacks. My only warning about having leather is to make sure to check your dog’s nails regularly for any really sharp spots, because I did get one scratch from a very sharp broken nail edge I had overlooked. Otherwise, leather is definitely the way to go.
I want to get another pug for my mom if posible free or cheap i don’t have much money!
I learned very quickly to buy only furniture that matches the pugs! If you buy without the pug in mind, it will be horrible. I have a burgandy microfiber chair that was picked out by someone else. It is the pug chair as it is covered in hair all the time! Weds, it goes in the trash! FINALLY! but the poor pugs will have to give up a comfy spot!

Wow–to go from concern that they might not accept her, to Mine, Mine, Mine in only 11 weeks. I hope that future developments slow down a bit!
What about pug nails? I’ve read that they grow real fast, do the damage the couch?
I’m interested in this particular thing because I already have a leather couch, and a Pug is coming in the future to my home.
My 5 yr old pug Oliver has recently been diagnosed with pigment keratitis dark spots originating from the inner parts of his eyes. Due to dryness and/or irritation. I told the vet I had noticed this after a weird situation when he woke up from a night mare and pooped slightly in bed with the shakes. It wasn’t a seizure like we worried, but it was scary, I examined all of him after that. Anyway, surgery is the option but the vet said to watch it and see how it progresses. Similar to what Anonymous wrote about their pug Napolean, since Oliver’s are near the inner part of his eyes it would require a specialist and cost around $1,000.00. It could progress quickly or slowly, so we are just keeping watch as time goes on. If it spreads it will result in blindness but vet said he was ok for now and she doesn’t recommend suergery until its more apparent in the eye. So sad!
pug nails may scratch the couch. however, i use a dremel tool to file their nails, so that’s not much of a problem unless i let it be a problem.
ohmygoodness, wait until she starts dating!
but still flattering
Hi
We have two leather sofas and they have stood up well. Not only to our pug (Month – 8 mths) but also our kids. We haven’t had a problems with Monty’s nails yet and I just love that you wipe clean all the accidents.
Cheers
SydneyGirl.
Amazing post, same with the pug breeder one. I linked both in my blog’s entry today, and also put you in my list of dog blogs. Thanks for such AMAZING entries! Sophie and Dixie say hi to Gizmo and Gadget!
My husband and I went to look at a litter of pug puppies. There was one dog that had white fore paws. Does this indicate bad breeding? The mother and father were present . The male dog appeared of high quality and had papers, but the female dog did not. Should we be apprehensive in purchasing the dog?
The home was dirty and I think the family was breeding for money.
White paws happen occasionally. Sometimes, the fur will turn fawn. Other times, the paw will stay white.
A good breeder will choose not to breed the pug w/ the white fur. But, white fur can happen in well bred pugs.
Because the mother does not have papers, I would be suspicious. If she didn’t even have papers, they’re either breeding for fun or for profit. This indicates to me that they are not professional. Do they know what they’re doing?
At the very least, I would ask for references, find out how many litters they have bred in the past. Find out why the mother does not have papers. Is she really a pug? Where did she come from? Are there genetic disorders that run in her line? There are a lot of big unknowns here.
I love etsy too! You can find someone to make just about
anything. I recommend this site for anybody who loves
handcrafted goods. Very cool!
We have a 5 year old Pug, Sumo. I can’t believe how much he is shedding! We have hardwood floors and I sweep up enough fur for a small dog every day. I have had him shaved before, it worked quite well, and he looked quite cute. But, I was told since they are short haired dogs that they shouldn’t be shaved so often because it’ll wreck their coats. I’m not too sure about this and hope it’s not true??? I haven’t tried Omega 3 capsules, but at this point I’ll try anything! Are these capsules specifically for dogs?? Any help would be appreciated!
Wow, I can’t believe how people can totally ignore the whole content of the blog and comment something so contradictory. The whole point of the post was how to buy from responsible/reputable breeder and responsible breeding. Just because you have a cute pug, doesn’t mean that you need to make more of it so you can make some or otherwise.
Now, back to subject matter, my pug came from a breeder that actually sounded kind of abrasive when I first contacted her; she put me through a series of interrogation, to make sure I knew what I was getting into. A whole world of difference when compared to other breeders (which turned out to be some scamming backyard breeders) who were super sweet, and told me that pugs were super easy dogs to raise, etc. Both of my pug’s parents are champion showdogs, and the breeder just wanted to make sure he was going to a good home – and she charged only a fraction of what other breeders charged. We still keep in touch with her and she has been very helpful.
Those are adorable collars!
So ADORABLE!!! Martine is growing so quickly! She is beautiful. Of course Gizmo is very handsome. Pugs are the absolute BEST! Keep the pictures coming. God Bless your whole family.
Thank you for sharing the wonderful pictures. I look forward to seeing them and look at urbanpug everyday!
I just found your blog, after you posted on one of kevin smith’s flickr pictures. My husband and I have 2 black pugs and they are the BEST! I also noticed your can of wellness in your fridge pic. This is also what we feed our pugs, they also get the dry wellness weight watchers food. I also am in seller on etsy, so I am just about to die for in love with your blog! You can check out my pugs pics here http://www.flickr.com/photos/craftykaytea/
A big ol’ “AWWWWWWH!” Too cute for words!
I have a french bulldog (who are related to the pugs) and I have the same exact problem! It must be something about the breeds and short hair. I can’t wait to shave off her fur. I really wish that I can hold her sometimes but then I have to deal with the industrial size lint roller, so usually it’s not worth it.
That is just too precious!!
Hi, you have been tagged by Louise (the pug) in an internet meme! Come check out her site to get the details. We can’t wait to see what you come up with.
I don’t exactly qualify as a pug owner – I’m the owner of two ‘pugs with fur’ that is, two pekingese!! Found you on Twitter. I’m 17fairway. Hope you’ll follow me as well.

I agree that finding a breeder that holds themselves to high standards is important,but you will not necesarily find it from a club breeder or from a an AKC reg. breeder who follows the extreme standard set by the PDCA. In fact I have talked with many very disatisfied buyers who have purchased from club breeders who have completely ingnored the code of ethics when it is not convienent. I would encourage people to do thier homework,many of show breeders are breeding for an extreme look in the breed which was attained by inbreeding thier lines for the look…How healthy is that?!!! How healthy is an extreme nose wrinkle,and huge bone stuffed into a cobby body? If somone wants to buy a pug from champion lines let it be a pug who has competed in agility,and from a breeder that does not support line/inbreeding. Please be careful no matter what the color or the standard that people follow. I purchased my healthy well bred pugs,which are standard and non standard colors from a Club breeder that actually follows a code of ethics,she is on the breeder referral list here http://www.PugColorClub.com
When Martine out grows that bassinet Gizmo is going to wonder what has happened to his bunk bed! Too cute
Bald is beautiful!!!
Don’t want Martine’s head to get cold, so I’ll pretend to be a hat:)
WHERE’S MY BINKY?
What a darling picture! Gizmo says “So THIS is why they brought this little thing around!”
He’s thinking “Ah life just doesn’t get any better then this”! Or maybe he’s thinking “I think I like my new toy” a pint size version of my mommy & daddy
Will Gizmo & Gadget go with you too NC or do you have a dog sitter?
Aww…so adorable!
Gizmo is saying, “I love my little sister, she is so soft and smells so good!” This is a beautiful picture. Have a great vacation.!
“So babies ARE good for something (I think I’m getting used to this kid).”–Giz
Well, at least I have more hair than she does…
I get it now! “Baby” means heated chin rest. No wonder everyone likes her so much!
My pug made it safely. Finished quarantine. I also changed my blog over to a domain.
I love these collars. My two pugs, stella and stanley, will be so jealous! Your dogs are adorable.
Ok, I was really glad to read your post. We have a dark eggplant colored microfiber couch that’s about 7 years old. It’s taken a beating thanks to two pugs (Stella, 10, and Stanley, 8.5) using it as their personal lounge space every day. Pug slobber is the worst part, and after repeated steam cleanings it’s looking pretty worn. I’m thinking of replacing it with leather, but I wondered also about pug nails scratching it up. We have a leather chair in our living room and it has a few scratches, but I’m think that’s just because it was a cheap chair and maybe a better quality sofa will hold up more. Thoughts?
my vet suggested a tablespoon of olive oil in thier food… I’m trying it (1st day) I’ll let you know if it works.
you ppl r so sick i belive that scintst have been playin around w/ mother nature ya tryn 2 be God but u have no idea how dis ill one day turn out to be living hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it is illegal 2 mess around w/ D.N.A!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
stop mess in around w/ the animals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[...] we would switch Jersey from his regular Science Diet puppy food to an organic brand, and see how he liked. Our local pet store store carries a wide variety of foods, so we decided to let Jersey taste-test [...]
My black pug Frankie has had scratches on her eyes from her baby sister since we saw her at the Breeders and chose her anyway. I have attended to her eyes from the start, however in the last two years her eyes have become more cloudy. Her Vet has given her Optimmune (the same med advertised on TV for adults) to produce more tears. Frankie’s eyes have greatly improved and I even notice an apparent change in her liveliness.
It’s tough for a black pug to be real peppy in Palm Springs at 110 degrees like it was last week, but Frankie took longer walks than usual and was happy to be outside. Maybe she can actually see better now!!
And to…Ming Kong owners…..adopt her if you can…a Pug is committed family member. They can have health issues, however they never whine about them as long as they feel loved.
My “new husband” almost did not marry me because I had a “dog”. He was
attacked by a doberman (his own dog that got frightened) and Frankie has taught my husband how to love dogs again. I can hardly get her out of his lap. Dogs are healers and sometimes we have to help heal them.

I Love Pugs
I MMVERY OLD PUG BREEDER I LIKE THIS SITE VERY MUCH & QUALITY OF PUGS TOO
Please visit my blog. I am fostering a neglected pug that needs the help of pug lovers. Do not view the blog if you are unable to handle graphic photos of pug abuse.
Maybe you could post a link on your blog to mine to help spread the word for donations to help save her life.
Thank you,
Thats the cutest pug Ive ever seen!!!
Oopsey is certainly active. But she might give G&G a heart attack if she were to stay

Great video of the pugs on the beach! Fun to watch, thanks!
Aaaw, I love all these pug blogs! My soon-to-be-husband and I have been enjoying living with our little pug, Panda, for a couple months now…and we’re hooked! Just thought I’d share my pug blog and say THANKS to everyone else who has a pug blog!!
Wow that’s one tight cork screw of a tail.
Hi, I noticed that one of your adorable Pugs is being used in advertising from this company:
http://www.newcloggens.com/
Here is a copy of the image they were using to advertise:

I just thought I’d let you know.
Does Martine have trouble breathing because her nose looks like it is covered with a skin fold?
that’s not martine, that’s gadget. and he’s a pug, he snorts, but he doesn’t have too much trouble breathing.
I have 4 week old Brug pups, if you are interested please contact me. I am not a professional breeder. This is a one time litter. The babes are too adorable to resist.
Oh, thank you Jesus. I am not alone. I actually thought there was something seriously wrong with my “Buddy’s” (male fawn pug) health. Thought maybe he was lacking a vitamin or not eating the right food. This sight is wonderful. I am looking forward to see your shaved pugs. (that is so funny, woh would of thought to just simply shave them…lol)
I live in Memphis. I actually found seersucker collars at a PetSmart. Once we get our pug (after our honeymoon) we are going back to get at least one.
My dogs name is Max lol> Iam going to call my dog Max Ma

Hey dumbass: it’s called “Photoshop”. Scientists have been “playing” with mother nature, hell they make cures and medicine and that’s playing around with mother nature. Everything is playing around with mother nature, so go fuck a tree and complain elsehwere — and learn a thing or two about “Photoshop”.
Hi,
Do the airlines actually weigh the pugs? To the person who uses Air France – their website says the dog has to be under 6kg to go in the cabin. That is either a very small pug or they didn’t check the weight. Please let me know. I’m trying to get my pug from the Uk to Israel.
Thanks!
I love both pugs and schanuzers. I have a miniature schnauzer and im seriously considering getting a pug. Both are wonderful dogs. I think its important to understand that all dogs have different tempremants and that protecting a house/owner is a natural instinct for certain breeds. Schnauzers do bark lots and very loudly, they also do tend to run very quickly up to other dogs, but they are just being friendly, sometimes too friendly! Schnauzers are not aggressive, they bark, not bite.
She is getting so big now!! That is really sweet!
Those are great pictures!!!
Hi, I love reading your blog, especially when I have 4 old months pug, named Bronze.
Bronze isn’t with us anymore because we live in the apartment.
but I miss him.
I adore the way you live harmoniously with cute pugs Gadget & Gizmo and sweet baby Martine.
Btw, Gadget and gizmo are chubby, do you feed them with dog foods?
keep update =)
yoy can see our Bronze in my blog prettyinthecity.biz
Very cute. I’m definitely not a baby and I still laugh when my nine pugs gang up on me and start licking me.
I have a 12 year old female pug and she is the love of my life. She has also started loosing her hips. She slides around where there is no where for her to grip. My vet examined her and told me that the nerves in her back legs are going . I am taking her back to the vet this coming week and I will give you an update…….She is a big dog in a little body….She rules the roost……I also have a male champion Boxer 95 pds 6 yrs old and a female Chochalate Lab 9 yrs……but my little Pug is the big dog in charge…….Take care
I have 2 pugs, Maddie 3 yrs and Abby 2 years, and I replaced my sofas 2.5 years ago buying leather with the pugs in mine. They do clean easily, the problem I had with the old sofa were the hair, it was a pain to try and vacumn all the hair out of the fabric. Now I just use a swifter and sweep it away. The problem with the new sofas are Maddie and Abby think they are 1 big chew hide as they constantly lick the couches and I have caught them chewing on the cushion a couple of times. They also scratch at the cushions but so far the couch has held up against their teeth and claws as I do not have holes but the cushions do look a little worn. Leather treatment helps them look better. I dont mine the worn look as long as there are not holes as I’m into antiques and old looking furniture.
Glad I found this site … but I was in hopes of finding something to stop the hair loss … my daughter won’t want HER pug shaved … the pug was her bday gift last year. Had I known then what I know now I’d have waited till she had her own apartment then given her a pug … she would only have had to wait another 10 yrs. LOL.
Wow this isnt real of cource but its pretty darn cute.Pugs of a chimpanzees body.What next
A Girapug
( giraffes and pugs crossed)
“don’t mind me. I’m just snorgling a bebeh. “
I just want to know how to stop him from marking everything,does getting him fixed help? does anyone know, i need help please.
I’d love to hear more details about how you use the dremel. I bought the $85 rechargeable version last year after hearing about use on pugs. I tried several of the attachments with little or no success, other than annoying the pug. I even went and bought some more.
Nail trimming time is a source of much pain and unhappiness around our house, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
That picture is darling!
That picture is so beatuiful. If you scrapbook that would make such a wonderful layout. When I have children I hope that they have such a sweet relationship like your Martine & Gadget.
Oh and I tried the dremel…they hate the noise and squirm at it more than they do when I trim their nails with a clipper. And it takes longer with the Dremel tool. Or maybe I’m using the wrong attachment. Which attachment do you use?
Two cute adorable baby sleeping.
Bogart is the man he is 2years old and runs 9-15 miles 4-5 time a week with my wife! No breathing problems no SNORING
We use the dremel tool on all 4 of our pugs. They get used to the sound and we don’t have “bleeders” as you do with clippers. My pugs scream bloody murder when we try to use clippers. We had to try a bunch of different grits and sizes of the heads before we found to right ones for the pugs’ nails. You can really shape the nails instead of having those rough edges that you get from clippers which isn’t good when the pugs scratch around their faces.
Your baby and pugs are so cute together!
Love the picture
I use a dremel on my two also and they don’t mind at all, like Kim above said they get used to the sound.
I did see something new advertised on TV called the Peticure a little round device that looks like a good idea, has anyone else seen it. This was the toll free number they gave on TV 800-349-7620 and I think the price was $29.00
I hate to use the clippers on my dog. You have to be so careful not to cut to far up the nail, which I did once, and now my dog won’t let me get near her with the clippers. A dremel sounds like it would work. I did see the Peticure on TV. It looked like it would be safe to use.
Those pictures of your baby and pugs are priceless!
I always wanted a pug and dont got money to buy one so if Icould find a free pug i would give it a good home
I really hope that Brooke does not breed Mischa regardless of how cute she is. Albinism is a potentially life threatening condition so its better to spay Mischa than to continue passing down mutated genes that do more harm to the breed than good. It would be irresponsible and unfair to promote a harmful genetic mutation in any breed and defeats the purpose of breeding altogether. A responsible breeder does /not/ breed their dog because they think their dog is cute, or great or what have you. They breed their dogs carefully in an attempt to remedy health problems based on strong genes that will make a HEALTHIER dog in addition to a healthier breed. Breeding a dog because it is cute or rare is not a valid reason.
hi there my name is Dawn Marsh and I live in Wisconsin and live on a 3acre farm with a new house . My last dog was a rat terrier and i loved him so much , but he ran away and we never found him. I love pugs and so does my husband . I hope that some one can help me find a pug that i can love again . Thanks Dawn
Adorable!!! I had that same chair and my pug also loved climbing up in it.
an oldie but goodie: Leo the Pug in Papasan
This is too cute! Gizmo is a fur baby! Adorable!
I am subscribed to your blog because I also have a pug. Mine is Romeo ![]()
I have to admit, this picture is truly adorable!!!!!!!
I simply love it! ![]()
thanks for sharing
I think that is the best picture you’ve taken so far! I’ll have to get one of those chairs for my Portia & Max
hi thats a great picture i have a 1 1/2 yr old chinese pug and have been trying to sign on to your chat site but havent quite figured it out.
This is THE sweetest pug and baby picture I have ever seen! And, I’ve seen a lot………..
Best Martine w/pug picture yet! Have read your site since pre-Katrina. when our previous pugs were still “among us.” We live in downtown BR w/ our three 15 wk old boys from Christina. Take your guys to visit the new (Raising Cane’s) dog park at City Park in BR. I’ve heard from other owners, pug & non, that it’s nice w/ plenty of water and a wading pool. I’m hoping we’ll be there soon after our last round of puppy shots next week. If your job happens to be downtown, stop & say hello if you see us. Just look for the person who wrangles pugs on Florida St. between Thrid & Fourth. I promise we’re hard to miss!
Oh I want one of each please! Too cute!!
Martine is beautiful and growing so quickly!
Thank you for sharing with us!
Very cute!
My pugs don’t get that close to my 7 month old, otherwise I wish I could have the same shot!
ADORABLE ADORABLE ADORABLE. DID I SAY ADORABLE???
What a bond there is between Martine and Gizmo! They will be best friends forever. I love the way Pugs connect to little people. Bonnie loves all of our grands.
Good luck with your summer job. Keep the wonderful pictures coming. Kiss Martine and the fur kids for me.
Oh my gosh–your pugs are gorgeous! I have a little purebred princess pug named Portia and she’s absolutely beautiful like yours. I wanted to get another one just like her, so I contacted my breeder to see when Portia’s mom was going to have another litter but I was informed that she had died! I am very serious about getting a healthy, well-treated and good-looking pug and I was hoping you could tell me where you got yours.
Thanks so much,
Julie
p.s.: Your little Martine is absolutely stunning as well. Aren’t you lucky
you better get that over to cuteoverload stat!!!
OMG is right!!! What a sweet picture!!
great pic!
i started a new pugfit blog. Please check it out at
http://pugfit.blogspot.com
combining my passion of staying fit and pugs in one place!
oh yes i did!
I purchased a Roomba just to deal with my pug’s shedding. It has saved me!!! I just turn it on and then I go about my business. I use it daily because of all the shedding and the Roomba really works!!
PUGS DON’T HAVE TO SHED!!!!
I own 3 purebred pugs and none of them shed AT ALL. ZERO SHEDDING!
The reason that pugs (and most dogs shed) is because of malnutrition. Commercial pet food contains little or no omega fatty acids which are essential to the health of your pug.
It’s very easy to supplement your dog with these nutrients though, and costs only about $25 per month!
What you need to do is log onto Nutiva.com (or search them on eBay) and buy a bottle of COLD PRESSED HEMP SEED OIL. Keep it in the fridge at all times.
Also go to a pet supply store and purchase a bottle of either NutraVet or grizzly brand ALASKAN SALMON OIL. Also keep this in the fridge.
Your pug should also only be eating a moist, high quality dog food.
Each day at his or her morning meal add 1/2 Tbsp. of each of those oils to your pug’s food.
Within one week your pug will STOP SHEDDING!
(takes a bit longer if the malnutrition is severe or if your dog is older.)
Give this a try and see for yourself!
hello,
I have two Pugs also, my male fawn pug is named Gizmo and my black female pug her name is Bobbi….I just love pugs. I am also now a registered breeder and am expecting a litter soon, cant wait to see these babies born…
I happened to stumble upon your website one day, and I have to say your boys are so funny! I have 2 pugs myself so I understand! Your daughter is adorable, and it looks like she’s in good hands. Or should I say paws?
As I sit at the computer with my B.F.L (big fat lug) AKA Rocky on my lap, and look down at my tiny little dancer AKA Rambo in his bed, I can’t help but laugh outloud reading some of your stories. My boys act so much like yours, that I wonder if they haven’t secretly been reading your archives to brush up on different shenanigans to carry out. Rocky’s even resting his chin on my hand as I try to type. I look forward to reading more adventures of Gizmo & Gadget in the future!
I luvv pugs! I have one pug named Frank sadly he was hit by a car and lost his left eye but hes back to his puggy self. He’s such a spoiled little baby pug. I love him sooo much and i want to get another pug for him to play with very soon=]]
Your dog seems so good with your baby. Those pictures are to be treasured.
So cute!
I love all of these pugs they all are so cute. I have a pug and his name is ben he is so funny! when someone is at out funt he barks then when they come near him he wants peted.
Hello there! My mom is a religious watcher of this website, as she has a pug herself, and she pointed me in the direction of your post about getting a new camera. I work at a camera store here in Fort Smith, Arkansas, so I thought I would give you my $.02! Between those two cameras you mentioned above, without a doubt, take a serious, serious look at the XSi over the XS. The XS is basically going to be a glorified XTi, it will have a smaller screen by .5″ than the XSi, less MP, goes back to a different image processor and sensor so you lose that GREAT resolution that the XSi is capable of. Thus far, what I have tested the XSi on, it has done everything I have asked it to do, and much much more! In my opinion it performs with the SAME image quality as the Canon EOS 40d, only in a smaller, more lightweight and entry level body. The one MAJOR advantge the XSi has is that is processes the images at 14bit color depth, rather than 12bit on the XS, which in laman’s terms means, you get MUCH more color, better contrast, and sharper out of the camera images. Those are the mai differences betweent he two. If you have any other questions, please, email me or feel free to give me a call at 1-479-461-0515. Hope this helps!
I like my canon 30d…current model is 40d or you could go with the cheaper rebel. The things I like about the slr is not only the better quality photos than a point and shoot but also the camera shutter life. I also like to be able to adjust my lens.
Yes they are an investment but so are pictures since you don’t see the same events the exact same way again. I always like to buy just the body unless you get a good combo deal and then buy the lenses that I like. Generally i get the canon l telephoto lenses with is but I do have a few general lenses.
Nikon also has good cameras too but once you commit to buying lenses…you’re kinda stuck so check out the models you like.
That is too cute! They have fully accepted her into the family!!
Pugs = Cute. Babies = Cute. Pugs + Babies = My Head Exploding.
So cute! They get along so beautifully…just too sweet and precious!
i love pugs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! rock on pugs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is cuteness plus! You MUST blow it up for the wall!
Gizmo almost looks more Shar pei than pug in that photo. So cute!
Martine is so cute! I occasionally look on your website and love looking at the picutes of Gizmo and Gadget and now of course Martine plus reading your articles. Keep it up they are great!
I enjoy your cute puggie and baby pix – they are awesome!
I’m getting a cavity looking at this picture. Too Sweet!
Oh my gosh!! I guess there is safety in numbers, or misery LOVES company. I am distraught over the shedding of my 2 pugs. One is a male fawn who I purcheased from a breeder and has had NOTHING but the best of care since his birth. The other is a black rescue pug who had an unknown history, but when I got him in May he had already been treated for a positive Lyme test, had yeast in both ears, gooey matter in both eyes, was severly underweight, and had walking and balance issues. Through a microship I was able to trace him and have pieced together a bit of his history. He was a puppy mill dog, who barely survived a barn fire. He was then apparently taken to a Walmart parking lot on December 27th in Wisconsin and dumped. The humane society who found him treated his obvious issues and then since no owners stepped forward…sent him to a Veterinary traiing facility where he was caged and used to teach students how to groom, and care for dogs. At the end of their semester, they couldn’t put him up for adoption as he was “fainting” everytime they took him on a walk to do his business. They said he suffered neurological issues of unknown origin. I took him home for “observations” and within 3 days decided to adopt him. Gus is the sweetest pug ever. Turns out he is 2 days younger than my other pug Willy and they are the best of friends. Gus’s desire to play with his new buddy encouraged him to walk more, and eventually run and wrestle with his pal. Gus has now gained weight, and the only “neurological” issue is that his right front sometimes scrapes along the street as he walks. We have taken to walking on grass so his foot does not bleed. He is a remarkable, loving dog. I am so happy he has come in to our lives and so glad I was willing to take the risk of adopting a dog with “special issues”. I could however do without all the shedding. He sheds more than my fawn. I thought it was due to his poor nutrition as a puppy, but now I read that EVERYONE who loves a pug must learn to love the shedding as well. Great site. Thanks for the postings.
Hi everyone,
i am a proud mama of a black pug, for the past 3 months, she is wonderful and a joy to my heart, would not trade her for the world !!
some pointers for new pug owners learn about the history behind the breeder some continue to breed dogs with defects such as luxating patella, it is said that this is a heritable disease.
My pug now suffers with her right leg, grade 3 patella. which will require surgery amounting to $1200 – already spent $500 to xray all legs and physical, all other legs are great. (my little cookie) she’s being taken in next month, it takes approx 2-3 months for recovery, consider the emotional toll on both of you.
be sure to monitor what she puts in her mouth while craving your attention within the first month she began to vomit every morning a clear liquid which appreaed to be bile, i did some reading and saw this was normal, a before meal occurence etc, even took her to the vet and they said it may be the heat , no worry. (so i thought)
On my way out to work 3 days later she vomited jumed off the cough, ran about, had a seizure and collapsed. I rsuhed her to the hospital did an xray – she had a round metal object in her stomach that had to be removed, this being the reason behind her morning sickness, poor thing.
they wanted to go into her stomach and remove the object, i allowed them later called and told they were able to squeeze it through her intestines and rectum. i was relieved to know they did not need to cut her stomach. well what they found was actually a dime and penny stuck together as one which started to decay, the zinc was also very toxic to her.
She has healed and looking at her now you would not know she had surgery that came up to $1200, no biggie.
Pay close attention to your pug they are like babies clean their face , walk daily, aviod much jumping to preserve legs, and give lots of TLC, they will do anything for your attention if you do not have the time , money, or love to care for one please reconsider they do not deserve anything less than best because they simply are.

Yay for rescue pugs! Our Daisy is a rescue as well and she is the sweetest dog you could imagine. Not sure why anyone would ever want to give up a pug but oh well, their loss, our gain!
Tag you are it! Come by our blog at http://www.lepug.com to see the details.
Pug Licks & Kisses!
Porky & Brownie
Those are some of the most ADORABLE photos!!!
Are you in a area where you are going to need to evacuate again? A lot of us around the country are crossing our fingers and praying for the New Orleans area again.
Your pugs are awesome!!!!! I have two fawn ones of my own and they are my WORLD!! How much do your two pugs weigh? My Sadie is almost 7 and she ways about 20 lbs. anb my Shy is 5 and he weighs in around 32 lbs. They both seem healthy though. Also what kind and how much do you feed them? Thanks and take care!
Your pugs are so cute!! They look alot like one of mine:) LOTS of wrinkles!
HI do you intend to breed Mischa? If so I would like some of the puppies.Carl
Great glasses! I love coming to this site and checking out the pics. Always good ones.
Good luck and stay safe.
Stay safe and know that our prayers are with you and the boys.
You all are in our prayers.
I am glad everyone is ok, Hope you didn’t get too much damage at home.
Glad to hear that G & G are safely evacuated. Hope you guys had fun in NY and had a good flight back!
Oh my DOG we cannot wait to find out!!!!!!!!
I am very glad that you guys are all alright. I can’t wait to see the new addition!!
WHO WHO WHO WHO WHO?!?!!?!
I mean… I look forward to the revelation with reserved anticipation.
My husband had ours before we met. He’s 8 yrs old and his name is Eggroll. I am a cat person although I also had dogs too. Eggroll gladly went from the only pet to being the big brother to 6 cats and a chihuahua/jack mix. Now we travel in an 18 wheeler with my husband. However, we’ve narrowed it down to just him and 3 cats.
Glad that everyone is alright. Looks like everyone had fun at the beach.
I love the way the way you share with your baby and your pugs that is great. I hope everyone can enjoy the pugs the way you do. I really enjoy my two pugs.
Awww
We have two pugs, Pickles and Peaches, and I am literally days away from delivering our first child. It is cute to see pugs interacting like that with a baby!
I am really excited to see how they will interact. I am sure they will get along fine though.
BTW…Your pugs are very beautiful!
Oh my goodness! Who/what is the new addition?
My own pug provides me with lots of joy but two pugs plus such a cute baby? Love it!
i have a pug and she is so playful and she is very protective.
On September 10 we lost our little boy Pug Joey. He was the Love of our lives. Our other Pugs Kloey and Mika are struggling just as my wife and I are. I did not think that it would be this hard but I cry each day over him. I know there is someone out there that has had a similiar situation. Could you please help us with this. We had him cremated and we have his ashes with us but it is not the same of having him lay beside you each day and lay next to you each night when he would sleep. It is painful. I ask each day how could this happen to something so precious and so loving. I would love to hear from anyone who has been or is going through this.
hi me and my family are looking for a loving and caring dog we have bine serching for months and we havent found any thing. So if you would just give us the pug we would thank you very much.Ohh and thank you for your time
Yay, welcome Oopsy! She is adorable! I bet you will decide to keep her forever.
Congrats! She is so cute and hopefully she get the boys weight down…
Congrats! i have a black pug and she is crazy and hyper and she is almost 5.
I hope you keep her. She will bring a lot of joy to your family.
Oh so cute! My pug is Oopsy size and I love that such a huge personality is in such a tiny body. Have fun!
Our home just grew from 2 pugs to 3 pugs. It’s been quite an adjustment (2 pugs felt managable and 3 pugs feels like we live on a farm), but it’s totally worth it. I agree that as our family grows, the bed doesn’t get any bigger. We’re learning to adjust. Luckily, our newest addition likes to sleep between our heads and the others like to sleep on our bellies or between our knees. Good luck!
Yes, yes. My pugs rule the bed as well. Their royal “Big-bed with bankies” routine is: hogging the bed, pillows and blanket, a pound or two of hair du pug, passing gass…under the blankets and the obligatory wake-up sneeze. I hope Martine finds them to be a source of entertainment, she looks so happy & content!
Congrats on the new addition! She is a cutie!
OMG, that is just insane cuteness! It’s oozing from all of them…they’re too cute. As for catching them all in that pose….precious and priceless!
I love coming here and looking at the pictures of your dogs and baby… they’re just the best pictures. Like Leigh V. said “precious and priceless!
I love this website and all the pictures that you post. I am owned by two pugs and a dachsund pug mix…….these pics always make my morning.
Hi guys…super cute pictures! I love all the baby and pug pics. Too adorable.
Don’t forget to stop by FunnyFur.com and get your Halloween dog costumes and scary toys!
Hi all! I was wondering if someone could help me with a pug problem. I just moved to Maui from Idaho and want to ship my pug over. I have completed all quarantine requirements for the sate of Hawaii, but I am scared to death to fly him here because of his snub nose. The main problem is, airlines will not let dogs fly in the cabin of a plane, even if I am with him, if the flight is to Hawaii. My pug, Walter, would have to sit in the cargo area. I am so nervous thhat he will suffocate or die of heat exhaustion. Does anyone have any suggestions or have a similar situation? I am deserate for help. I miss my dog, but am more concerned about his healt.
I am looking for a free pug!
She has the devil in her eyes! (But don’t all pugs???)
Did any of you try giving yor pug omega 3 oil, and did it help the shedding? Wanting to get a pug-pup real bad, but am concernet about the shedding. And the snoring, I am a light sleeper!!

Happy Birthday Gizmo and Gadget! What lucky boys you are to have your own pastry chef bake you a special cake. I suppose Oopsie had a slice of cake too.

Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello pug lovers,
Check out this new YouTube video featuring pugs talking politics! The particular subject is Taxes. See what Peanut, Tugboat, Booger, Pee-Wee and the rest of the gang have to say!
“Mr Tiddles’s Election Guide – Taxes”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EpKw3S1S7Gc
This picture is awesome…it’s looks like its from a fancy catalog chair. Of course with two adorable pugs and a sweet baby as models!
Love the lighting in the picture!
Love the picture and the story about Oopsey (love the name). Was she not around men or is it just you
She lived with tricia’s dad. I think he issue isn’t me specifically as it is with being fed. She lived with 6 or 7 other pugs, and they were all fed at one time, and she may have been bullied by the other pugs.
She is getting better now, though, as she will now take a chicken jerky from me directly.
haha…gizmo has such a cute expression on his face.. and the way he’s sitting is too cute!
Someone looking for a pug could also check with their local breeders, and ask about retired dogs. I picked up my 2nd pug at the same breeder as my younger dog. She was about 6 when we brought her home, they didn’t charge us as she was too old to breed any longer. You still need to do a thorough background check though, as my dog ended up being more of a rescue, where I didn’t want to let her go back there.
Martine is BEAUTIFUL! I can tell from the pictures how much she is loved by G&G and I know the Oopsey loves her just as much. In time she will be like the. boys. Keep the pictures coming
Too Cute!! She looks like she’s so happy to look like her brothers
Too Cute!! She looks so happy to look like her brothers!
Have had 3 danes and 2 labs and a beagle and a pit bull. All were fantastic – no problems with other dogs big or small – it’s all in the trainig and homelife folks….. just my opinion but works.
ADORABLE!!!!!!! So much love in the little pug and baby bodies! Keep sharing the joy with us.
I spy four pugs! LOL!
NO WAY! They make PUG costumes for babies??? I HAVE TO BUY ONE. I don’t have any kids but someday I will have one and I MUST have that costume in reserve!
That is just too cute for words!
Hi All
The solution for Shedding it give your pug a trim. I bought a cheap electric dog clippers ($100) and WOW what a difference. Prior everywhere we went he left a mess, I couldn’t even pick him up as my clothes would get covered in fur, even when he sat on the couch it was a mess just non stop, but now after I gave him a trim what a difference, I can cuddle him and he doesn’t shed any hair, its been 2 days so far and he sits on the couch with me and not 1 piece of hair is left on there. Any guys its not hard to trim him yourself, I have no experience and it was easy and he looks good too. My wife thought I was going to make him look silly as I have never done it before..lol, but no its so easy, I wish I read this earlier and done it when I first got him, would of saved a lot of vacuuming. I have also changed his diet and looked for dog food that has Omega in it and bought some Omega Oil, I put that over his food every morning. I have only just started doing that so unsure if that will also be a factored (its only being one meal so far with the Omega oil)
All if you have not given your dog a trim do it now and u will be amazed at the difference it makes, I really didn’t think it would when I was reading this forum, but tried it as his hair issue was getting out of control, no need to vacume today
Buy a Pug Malene, they have such a great personality, they are like a shadow and will follow you every where.
Hi iam looking for a free pug puppie as well i have been grown up with puppiesi love them very much so if u can help me find a free pug puppie for me that would be great and i think it would have a great home here. Thanks Tenielle

Funny story. As usual, more great pictures. Your dogs seem so good around your baby.
Martine looks more happy being a pug than a monkey!

i i’m looking for an pug for my daughter and it’s alittle bit out my price.But lucky i camed across your sit.and i love to have an free pug.my daugther and i would love the puppy.
WHEN I WAS TWELVE I LOST MY BEST FRIEND IN THE WORLD SHE WAS A PUG HER NAME WAS ANNIE SHE GOT HIT BY A CAR AND AS LONG AS I CAN FIND ONE LIKE HER I WILL GIVE A GREAT HOME
I am currently in law school and my pug, Monster, will NOT get up in the morning either. She just lies in bed with her little googly eyes peeking out from under the comforter, looking smug as I race around the house trying to find my federal rules of civil procedure that has been kicked under the couch.
She loves law school though, especially when I take her to school at night so she can play with everyone doing some late night studying & when she gets to chew on her bone on top of one of my case books because I am concentrating on a particularly hard case in another book.
sorry i missed if mischa was ckc registered. if she is and u plan to breed her and she has a white i would b intrested in 1 of her babes. Never mind the comment from anonymous…if they don’t even have the courage to put their 1st name up then then they are just stickin there nose in where it doesn’t belong.
THIS IS NOT FREE PUGS ITS 4 YOU 2 GET THEM OUT OF JAIL DUMB SHITS!!!!
I am going to try your dog cake recipes,but may have to modify it a little for some of my pugs get upset stomaches easily. I have 9 pugs and a total of 12 dogs with one I am picking up around Thanksgiving that is a grand-daughter to my 2 English Bulldogs. AS you can see I am truly a dog lover and there is never a dull moment here. They are all pets and I do not breed them.
gees those cupcakes look great!
i cld it eat myself!
please watch this film of my black fug…super funny!!!
oops, not fug, pug!!!
She only lived with Tricia’s Dad for four months. The rest of the time she was with Tricia’s Mom and two other pugs and as noted from the story she is very smart. She knows she is the smallest and most at risk and when she is really feeling it, she will roll over so people will pet her belly, which makes her feel better. She has been very smart from the beginning when she jumped out of her crib at six weeks old to land in the bed with Tricia’s Mom. She can jump over, climb over, or crawl under anything to be where she wants to be! She is a great pug. She has always been weird about eating, though, I think because she knows she is the smallest pug in the room.
That is too funny. She’s just one of the pack to them. But she’s seems more successful at the begging than the rest of the pugs…
Oh my gosh, this is the cutest thing.
When I was little, I really thought I was just one of the dogs until I was like 3. =) I just hung out with them all the time.
Maybe that explains something…
Oh the puggies have competition now! They better put on their best big ol’ puppy eyes ‘cos the baby is giving them a run for their money!
too cute
That is adorable!
She is so big now
I have to male pugs that are in need of a girl . They are 14 months .Looking for a female Pug .Please contact me via e-mail .We are located in the Maryland area
She needs more hair to be a true pug!
I have 3 male Pugs, 1 neutered and 2 not neutered. The biggest problem that I have had with the 2 un-neutered has been “marking of the territory”! I have finally gotten it under control with DAILY mopping with tea tree oil in hot water and making them go out hourly during the day and very frequently at night! I love my boys to the ends of the Earth and would do anything to keep the peace in the “family”!! Joey, Tai-Chiang and Tram are our heart and soul. They are so very sweet and make me laugh EVERY day just by being themselves! Joey and Tai are brothers from the same litter and Tram is a rescue. They are all about 4.5 years old.
Jumping on guests! They just get so excited when we have company, and can’t wait to greet the guests.
We have yet to fix the problem.
Problems with Pugs? Pugs don’t have problems, their humans do. The pug human just needs to do what the pug wants. Love my Pug!!!
I have to go with “marking of the territory” – we have made our Pug Monty the pack leader by allowing him on the bed and furniture. After nearly 5 years of his leadership it would be cruel to put him on the floor and he was never happy until we let him on the bed anyway.
I am going to try the tea tree oil recomendation. I bought some dog diapers that were recomended here and they are kind of hard to keep up with all day (when he goes outside (which is frequently I need to take them off) and put back on when he comes inside.
He was neutered when he was a small pup, and still does this. It is very frustrating.
hey, i’m looking for a free pug or a pug under $200 (since i have to pay for the puggy…i’m in high school and i dont have a job…) so contact me at amma101294@gmail.com if you have any info on free pugs/pugs under $200 in northern nj (i cant really travel far…)
thanks!
Hmm.. I would have to say being stubborn!! Refusing to go the bathroom when I take them out. Repeatedly kicking them off the couch with chew toys (my male sobbers on his toys and it’s yucky and stinky on the couch).
We have had no problem with marking, but he occasionally humps our female but we have noticed it is more of a dominance thing.
E – some people use belly bands for marking… that way when you it him out, you would slide up his chest to get it out of the way instead of taking it off like a diaper.
Also vinegar is a good thing to wash your floors with.
The smell dissipates almost right away and it takes the scent of urine away.
I haven’t tried it yet but I am going to buy it this summer for Gus.. I have been using the cooling bandana.. you let it soak for 20 minutes in cold water and then they can wear it for a few hours.. it sits low on the front of their chest and it seems to work quite well.
Oooooh I gotta go get the backgrounds!
cool….nice item
OMG that is just TOOOO adorable!! Happy Thanksgiving to the whole Urban Pug clan (humans and canines!)
Are your pugs really for FREE because iam looking for one and i live in Nebraska.
I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU WOULD JAIL PUGS YOU STUPIDOS
Licking!! My 2 year old pug will not stop licking. She licks the carpet, hardwood, me, my clothes, her bones, the other dogs, everything! I’ve tried yelling NO when she licks and squeezing her mouth when I can catch her. The noise it makes drives me insane. My older pug, 11, gets mad in the mornings and poops before I get out of bed.
Wow! All of these baby plus Pugs pictures are super duper adorable! So cute. Martine is so big now and looks so happy playing with the Pugs. I love it when they are all hanging out like there is no difference between baby and Pugs…just family. I LOVE it!!!
Also, I love the Pug costume. Planning on getting one for my nephew next year and taking some of our own baby “Pug” plus Pug pictures.
i couldn’t find your email. we’ve had a horrific past day and need your help spreading the word. if you can help in any way too…even by reposting, that would mean the world to us:http://pugnyc.blogspot.com/2008/12/tonight.html
I have to admit that i was wondering about the relative “status” of your bunch since reproduction hasn’t been a big issue in the past.
I think that one of the great inventions of all time is the webcam!
i love you
to mummy i love u
CORRECTION–Our favorite household gadget is “Gadget” himself!!!
You dog (dogs) are cute but I think I still like Nikon, my Mini-Pin, more!
Unlike other pug bloggers, I am actually doing the blogging myself(check out “New Pug on the Blog”). I got tired of waiting for my parents to write about me so I took matters into paw (so to speak) and started my own blog. I will have wonderful photos and journal entries about my life, so check it out.
Respectfully submitted,
Mason the Pug
Oops, since I am new to this I forgot to include my website: http://www.masonpug.wordpress.com
Oh, what a sad looking little girl! Give her some mommy love. She is so beautiful, just like her brothers, and Martine.
What do you do with the tea tree oil? My pug now lives on my parent’s farm due to the marking – he ruined all of my furniture! It breaks my heart, I miss him!
I LOVE PUGS i really want one
my BFF does like pugs she is on this website right ow
My mother-in-laws pug is very sick in the hospital the vet said he didn’t believe she would make it over night and my husband is wanting to find her a new one, she took this dog with her everywhere it’s like one of her children, we don’t have much money and we’re needing to find one that’s really cheap/free. So if you can help Thanks.
When it is good to be a cat
That was great. They are like ‘Okay we peed on the fence, time to go back in.’
I need to find a great home for a wonderful black pug. He is so sweet, nothing wrong with him at all. He is about 5 years old. His owners just had a baby with special needs and feel a dog won’t work with their new family. He is regestered and not fixed. They want the best home out there for him. I am near Wichita Kansas.
With ours, it’s barking! Pugs aren’t generally big barkers, our previous pug rarely ever made a sound, but these two (2 female 3-year old pug sisters from the same litter) they’re CRAZY barkers. They bark at things and it’s a chain reaction. Doorbells (we don’t even HAVE one) but they bark when they hear it on tv, when they see/hear people outside the condo, it’s pretty bad to the point where we are needing to find a way to stop it.
Yup… Oscar totally does that. All I have to say is “You wanna?”
So cute!! While watching the video, my little puggy Miguel kept tilting his head when he heard those key words. Pugs are just so darned cute!
I have to say the licking. My male ( Jeb -2 yrs old) licks everything! He even lick the female’s (Daisy) ears. My vet made a comment about how clean her ears were when we went for her yearly check up last month. He asked what we did. I told him Jeb did it. I have tried the bitter apple spray and went as far as holding his tounge out of his mouth for a few seconds. This works for a little while, but does not last. I would really like help on this one.
Absolutely. Magda does it when I say in a very shrill voice ‘OH MY GOD A PUG!’ because that is what we heard while on a trip from a woman. I liked how the two on the right did it in unison.
Yes, she does that all the time…. they are so cute!
Just listen to Gizmo breathe! Lol. Oopsy is so cute in this video. Great job on the blog!
Oh she is so cute!
Hahah that was so cute and funny! And yes all the time!!! I like to speak french to mine and it almost gives them whiplash!

I am looking for pug that someone is giving away due to financial difficulties or because of a move. I am hoping someone has a pug a puppy or an adult that they can give to me adn our family instead of it being taken to a shelter or rescue. We have pug experience because we have a little one already but just love them and would hate for them to be taken to a pound or something. Please let us know. We live in Florida so if you are a residence to florida would be best for us.Thanks
Bugsy is my “grandson” and only occasionally visits, so I don’t have a pug blog. He’s wonderful but loves to pester my 100-pound werewolf, Bear. Over the holidays, Peace on Earth came for me when Bugsy and Bear settled down for a nap together and I could get some writing done. For anyone interested, this quiet scene is on youtube:

My dog was was just like that and worse, he did so many crazy things that will give me a heart attack soon. (kidding) but yeah, my dog is bad. And I get scared for him. Until I was watching TV and saw the commercial for training dogs. Its……..

Absolutly! Our male pug does it all the time! The girl doesn’t though.
I just had the SAME thing happen to my Pug Molly this morning and my wife is out of town! She swelled up a lot, then about an hour later she is pretty much fine again. I am going to run her to the vet because I want to make sure it isnt anything serious. Just freaks you out when your pug looks like Frankenpug!
Agree with all the previous posts! Pugs are phenomenal dogs. My wife and I have two and I can’t imagine how dull life would be without them. Thanks for all your posts!
I think our Rueben is broken. He used to do it both to the left and the right, but now he only does it to the left. He’s a very strange boy.
What’s really funny about this video is that Rueben reacts to it! He actually sits at the computer and (half) tilts his head whenever the guy says the words “go” and “walk.”
For my dog- The endless circling before she will pee or poop. It drives me crazy! Then if she gets distracted, she has to start all over again…
how can you be so cruwl(y)
cool
I adopted my pug from someone who was moving out of town. She was close to two years old at the time. My biggest problem with her is that she will urinate and poo on my other dogs bed. When it’s cold outside, I leave them in the kitchen, behind a doggie gate. She will urinate around the water and food bowls. There’s always a puddle under the bowls when I get home. This isn’t the biggest problem. I understand she can’t hold it all day and I’ve put down the pee pads, but it’s always by where they eat. My biggest problem is that a couple of times she’ll poop in MY bed!!!! She, obviously hasn’t been sleeping me, especially after the second time it happened. Any help please@!!!! I love her, but she’s very trying.
I have a 4 year old fawn pug whose name is harley , and also a black one whose name is romeo they are the joy of my life.I would recommend these dogs to any one they are family dogs,never cranky and full of life. I would never own any other dog.
I love the progression. Double chin rest is just the cutest thing ever!
That is so cute! Maybe there head is heavy? Or they are just lazy, like my pug?! LOL keep up the blog!
Stupidest thing I have ever seen, not about Pugs at all
Charlotte’s chin rest is my leg or shoulder!
its so cute! I love u!
I put you in my Blogroll

My pugs like to rest their chins too! And they have some interesting sleep positions… http://pics.livejournal.com/thatconomist/pic/00101qws/
So have the humans of Urban Pug used The Dog Training Secret to train Gizmo and Gadget?
No, we have not. We don’t really have any problems so long as we keep on a regular walk schedule, so we have not needed it.
Gosh… you have the CUTEST pugs… sooo jealous!!
Thank god you posted this. We just moved to a new house and Magda is peeing and pooping all over the house. The new one is peeing on the bed which she never did before. She gives absolutely no signal as both times I have been in the room. This is also after we have started giving her 3 big walks a day. This is almost having me in tears.
Hi fellow pug lovers! Just wanted to let you all in a some cool purses that are in the shape of pugs. They are so darn cute I can hardly stand it! There are also keychains so it’s not just for the girls. Check it out at http://www.fuzzynation.com.
Have you noticed a change in the colour of Tripett? Our Kirra has been on the Advanced Skin & Coat formula for a couple of years and in the last few months the colour has changed to a grey/blackish colour from its regular pink look. I find with the change in colour also came the fact it upsets her stomach………has anyone else experienced the same???
That is a precious boy!
I love the chin rest! Mine 2 are always doing this on my leg (or on top of my 7-month old daughter when I’m trying to feed her a bottle). These pics are too cute! I love pugs. They are like having 2 more kids – and they are great with my 2 daughters (2 1/2 years old and 7 months old).
Yes! I love the head tilts! Mine do that all the time! I have a fawn femaile and a black male (both 4 years old). It’s like they are really trying to listen to you!
My pug Gretchen does the same thing. She takes a few pieces of food out of the bowl, puts them on the floor and then eats them. I just thought it was a pug thing!?
Hi… I don’t crate my pugs often (I have an 8 year old female and a 3 month old male)… but when I have to Ronduh runs to her crate… She has a towel and a favorite pillow inside and just snoozes away… I used to feel guilty about putting her in them, but one day I could find the pug, there had been some excitement in the kitchen and I had wondered where she wandered off too… low and behold, she had put herself in the crate… She doesn’t do it often, but I never lock the door now and when she wants a nap away from the crowd, that’s where I find her. The new guy, sleeps in there at night, gets up to go pee at 3am then heads back there on his own. The crates are never used for punishment, and the pugs have adopted them as sort of a quiet get away…
i just had a litter of 6 ..one is a albino female..is this rare..the mom and dad were both fawn..and in a double pin..so an unvited male would be
next to impossible..would like to hear from you..did you buy this pug or
do you have the parents.
thank you…kay
We have one very large crate that both our pugs go in when we leave the house. It is large enough so the can both move around freely and even sometimes play inside. They have used this since they were both puppies.
They each also get a treat when ever they go in. All we have to do is get treat out and they both go running. I think it is key to never use one as punishment. They both are happy to go in and love napping together in a big ball.
Congratulations Martine!
What about dogs that are the exact opposite of this? Our pug will do nothing EXCEPT sleep. She very occasionally likes to roughhouse with her stuffed raccoon but that lasts for about 3 minutes tops before she gets tired and goes back to sleep. She is 7 and has been through a few major surgeries for bladder stones and tumors. Is this normal??
Mason has been very prolific in his journal writing. Look at life through a pug’s eyes. Visit:
Gadget is generally “lazy,” but that level of of inactivity can’t be normal. However, I would try to get her some more exercise, as regular walks might give her more energy. Also, staying inside all the time can get boring, and just the change of scenery might be enough to get her spirits up. You get to leave your house all the time, she doesn’t. Even if it’s just rides in the car, the new sights might be enough to help.
I have noticed that the tripett is a different color,and smells worse.I just found this website today.I have been feeding this to my pugs for over a year now.I has helped my pug Gracie get rid of that awful gas pugs are so famous for.And now that I know its not just me,that sees the huge change in the tripett I will call them….Thanks
I think Diesel would be the cartoon network because he is silly and animated. Bella would probably be lifetime. She is more mature and laid back.
She does love car rides and we try to take her everywhere we go. Sometimes she falls asleep while sitting on one of our laps in the car. Haha. I think the motion is soothing. She also goes for walks 4x/day but we’re afraid to go more than 1/4 to 1/2 a mile in case she gets tired. I wonder if she is depressed but she seems to really enjoy sleeping. Her favorite part of day is when we get ready for bed and she runs to our bed with a toy in her mouth.
Whenever I’m having a bad day, I come look at your site. Your pictures always cheer me up!!
Absolutley adorable. I check in now and then to see your puggies and adorable Martine, Nice to see the collars are still going strong.
those are very nice crates. My cresties do the same when crating is needed. Just give them a treat and they snack away. My puff, every time I leave , runs into her crate to get a treat. I have made them some very nice pads with cushy beads in them and they love them.
Jolene, thanks for your comment – yes, the collars are still working great.
Thanks Ken,
I have also fallen in love with the breed, they are just too cute.
But how much and how often do you trim your pug to stop the shedding – is the electric dog-clipper difficult to handle? And how is it going with the Omega oil – is it making a difference on the shedding?
I’ve only clipped them a few times, but it did last for quite a while.
Mason reveals his views on Valentine’s Day and shares a surprising fact about himself…

aww so cute!
Now that is a lot of love!!! Beautiful baby and beautiful pug, who could ask for more?
lovely photos. One question. Won’t the pug’s shedding be a problem?
Mason has written another entry, “The Case of the Purloined Pug” at http://www.masonpug.com
Hi fellow pug lovers and owners! Just wanted to let you all in a some exciting news.I have just opened a new pug site that is taken of very very well.
You can consider this MySpace for Pug lovers & owners. That’s Right! You can do most everything you can do with Myspace including adding pictures, videos, and your very own blog.
You can add friends. You can even create your own personal Pug page, designed by you(Or add your Myspace layout), and comment on other members’ pages.
Many of our members are already making great friends with other Pug lovers inside. Come in now and join the club. We all look forward to meeting you.
Tai Chiang would be Spike TV as he is all macho and “in charge” of the group. Tram would be cartoon network, maybe more like Boomerang as he is sooooo silly like some of the good old cartoons! Joey Would definitely be Food network and Hallmark channel as he’s my little sweet heart who can stop on a dime for a nibble!!!
I just love looking at any pug pic I can find. I have two boys (Rudy and Sarge) and I agree they are better in two’s! I’ve had all breeds of dogs since childhood but I think I’ll always have pugs in the future.
Sampson would be Comedy Central because he’s a bit on the crazy side and sometimes he knows no limits! He would also carry a slice of TLC because he’s all about family and he clearly believes that “it’s a beautiful life!” If we could afford it, Sampson would love to be a part of 18 Pugs and Counting!
i think your photos and comments are excellent, my family and i have a pugadoo and she is just beautiful her name is Meg….we love your site
Hail King Gadget!
ohhh that is just too sweet. We have a pug and are expecting our first baby in 2 months. I hope they get along as well as your pugs and baby do. Those pictures are just adorable.
Ven
Gizmo would have to be Animal Planet. He loves watching shows with animals in it. Well that or musicals ahahah.
i love pets i gots 2 cats and a dog i relly like this site
This photo absolutely made me laugh because it’s similar to the looks my pugs give me when I “dress” them up!! I love it. These guys have a precious gift just being themselves!!
How did you get him to stand still long enough to keep on the hat and take the picture? You need to put him on a Mardi Gras ladder and let him attract all the beads. Next year we’re bringing him to the parades in that outfit.
Gadget it truly a regal pug. He deserves to be king! Long live King Gadget!
~D
Kay,
Do you plan to sell the albino pug puppy?
I too check your website from time to time – how Martine has grown! Those photos are adorable!
hi My name Is Vicky LOuise Caterine Riley And Me And MY fiance Bought Acute pug and She really cute and her names Dory Prescott and shes cute Your Sincerely Vicky Louise Catherine Riley
he is not even bark… seems enjoying the praise..lol
We got our girl when she was 7 months old and the breeder didn’t do any work with her. She is good about 90% of the time. Thanks for this
Rosebud would be The Travel Channel with No Reservations and Bizarre foods with Andrew Zimmerman
I have both a miniature schnauzer and a pug and my schnauzer acts the same way with strangers even with training, while my pug as cool as cool can be. Also yelling at the dog to try to get it to stop can actually make my schnauzer bark more, it will assume its owner is also yelling at this new person so it will happily bark more to help the owner is fending this new person off.
After doing tons of research and speaking my vet, I have just come to accept it my schnauzers temperament to be extremely possessive while not being aggressive, but rarely if ever do schnauzers attack anyone or any dog. My dog usually does what you describe run bark , bark some more and bark even more then sniff the other dog wait for a reaction then want to play and usually lick the other owner.
i love the pitchers
i’d like to buy a puppy or adulte albino, you can contact me by email ? please
thank you
nancy
Your pugs are so adorable!
Gus needs a chin rest as well, usually myself or his little sister or ocasionally a toy.
Indy just lays her head straight on the couch or on her paws and gives us extra pathetic looks..
I have two pugs the one I had for four years I noticed brown forming where the white part should be. I have another pug thats 2.5 yrs old starting to have that.. what does that mean its closer to the ears but a little bit close to the nose thanks
ido not get it ??????????
Do you know when the next pug meet up will be in New Orleans?
Moxy, no, sorry, I don’t know when the next pug meetup is. We’ve kinda fallen out of the pug meetup loop here since we had the baby.
Gadget must be amazed at the food magically falling from the sky
Oh, how cute that first picture is! Gadget looks very comfy in the “back seat” of the stroller.
It’s amazing, too, how dogs (pugs especially, I think) become living vacuum cleaners when there’s food anywhere near the floor. Too cute!
Anyone know where i can get a brug in South Africa?
I’ve always said owning a pug means never having to pick food up off the floor!
Surely an early April Fool’s joke??
Please God… please, let this be an early April Fool’s joke…. (shudders!)
Matt it’s only March 31st. You should have posted this a day later then we all would have gotten a good laugh. So for now I’m thinking you were bitten by a spider and have Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever!! Gizmo and Gadget will not appreciate being replaced by a creepy crawling spider.
Oh come on now—no joking?, SPIDERS! echhhhhhh! How about slugs or maggots, I really hope that this is a early April Fool’s joke—–NOTHING is better than PUGS and BABIES!!!!!
EEeeeKekKkkEeeEEkkkKKKKK!!!!!!!
Well done!
awww these pugs are so cute especially since i love them
yum..spiders!
Thank goodness! Now how about new pictures of the gang, I know we have all missed seeing everyone.
my male pug like to lick my husband’s hands my question is why? is this normal?
I love the Mukilteo ferry!! I’m from Edmonds, not far from Seattle. Hope you had good weather.
That looks exactly like my pug Chloe! (Well, yeah, and I think she has the same shirt, too! ) One of these days soon I hope to get a real pug, but until then, Chloe will keep me company just like Tivo is keeping you company!
I love that you took your toy pug along with you! We could not take our pug when traveling for Christmas, so I brought along a toy and received quite a bit of ridicule.
I grew up outside Seattle, and I miss Ivar’s with a passion!! Nothing down here in Texas can compare…
haha, urban spider….genius.
Yep, my pug loves to play fetch. She’s the anti-pug though. She loves big dogs, plays fetch, loves the beach, loves swimming with her lifejacket.
This past weekend she was playing with a 200 pound great dane at Fort Funston in SF.
Love the video. LOL. The pugs were awesome sitting there while Martine did all the work. At least she enjoys playing fetch.
TOO funny, she is so cute!
Martine is so beautiful! Love the pugs! My pug doesn’t fetch either.
Hahaha, too funny! Martine’s laugh is infectious, so cute!
How Cute! Absolutely my pug plays fetch. She loves it and in fact she insists on it. When she decides it’s time — well dammit — it’s time and you’d better do it. She’ll keep putting the toy at your feet over and over until you respond. If you take too long, she’ll paw at your leg. Take longer and she’s going to bark at you. Obey the Pug!
I have the healthiest, liveliest, cutest and most loving pug in the world. I have tried everything to stop the shedding and NOTHING works but if shedding is what I must endure in order to have those loving “liquid” brown eyes look at me and ask nothing in return…then shedding it is.
Miniature Schnauzer’s are crazy dogs, seriously, it does not matter if you train them. Mine would bark at anything/everything, it would even bark at and try to fight RACCOON’S (it would of course run up to the raccoon, realize it was a suicide mission, and run away) because it was so dumb. They’re just extremely possessive and overprotective dogs.
So adorable!
that is a wonderful little video! your baby and pugs are so cute. you really should submit this to AFV. cute babies and cute pugs…money in the bank!! seriously cute!
thank you for sharing!
puglette
)
Absolutely precious!
So super cute. My puggie would never sit still long enough for me to put bunny ears on him.
adorable.
That is too cute! The pugs kind of fetch, they just don’t return it!
The cat on the other hand… she will!
ummmmmmm . . . . . . . . . why yes . . . . . . that sure is a cute spider . . . . . . . ???????
My older pug (6yrs) will play until he gets bored, and my younger pug (6mo) will play until my arm falls off! Sometimes they just decide they want to suck on the toy instead of chase it
Sorry you had to wait for the ferry, but frankly, the wait can be much worse. My parents live in Port Ludlow, one ferry ride and a floating bridge away from Seattle. They are used to planning ahead for bridge openings (for submarines) and ferry waits–they carry extra crossword and sudoku puzzles at all times. Glad you got to see our beautiful town! We have tons of pugs here–I have two myself. Max looks lots like your boys.
Here is a new networking site for Pug Owners: http://www.PugzMugz.com. It’s like a facebook or myspace for Pug Owners!
Sooo Cute!!!
You should sign up on http://www.PugzMugz.com. It’s a networking site for Pug Owners – like facebook or myspace…but for Pugs!
As for your potty problem…I have a 1 1/2 year old pug also named Gizmo i found out about the greatest thing in the world…NEUTICLES!!!! they are “replacement” nuts for your dog. Gizmo is getting the neuticles in a week due to the same potty problem…Hope this helps.
Hi All,
I’m looking for a free pug, a young male, color doesn’t matter. My daughter is 4 and she loves animals, she would like a pug so it can sleep with her. I’m located in Saint Martinville, Louisiana.
SO adorable! I always love the pics you put up with her and the pugs
i really enjoy the updates on gizmo and gadget
martine is such a beautiful child, to see her with gizmo is just adorable
best to you and yours
cynthia
from “urban pug” to “urban bug”!
HEADLOCK! lol cute, love your site
Martine has grown up so much and G,G&O always make my day when i see their pictures. How did you get to have these puggies at this size though is my question? they look adorable.
JT, Gizmo and Gadget are slightly bigger than pugs you may have seen. Gizmo is about 22 pounds and Gadget’s more like 26 pounds — they are both champion show pugs. Generally, show pugs are bigger and stockier than other pugs because that’s one of the things judges want, and thus, what breeders breed for.
very nice look on the face rolls…and martine cute as always.
I have done much research I also have a Pug and we soon moving to Germany. We are flying with united and they are allowing us to take the dog with us he is only 7 months and weighs about 15 lbs I was told he could weight up to 19 lbs to go in cabin and it is going to cost $125. Also there are sites who will ship your pet for you I know they are quite coslty (about $850) but if you love your baby like I love mine his/her safelty is well worth it.
I have two pugs! I just love em! That is just the coolest video and daughter is a little darling! (you probably allready knew that) Thanks for posting that video!
I adopted a 4 year old male pug from a resuce group and its been the most trying time ever with a dog. Ive owned all types of dogs in my life but the pug has given me the most problems! He is so stubborn. I have tried for two years now to housebreak to no avail!! Poops in the house daily even if Im standing right there. Nothing works and believe me Ive tried everything! Crating is a joke…he just poops in there and then goes right back to sleep with it laying next to him. Im at the end of my rope and am running out of options, if anyone has some suggestions for me, im willing to listen.
I have takin him to the vet for a checkup and nothing is wrong with him physically just a ton of behavoir probelms.
Thanks for any help!
My pug sleeps all the time to. he is 6 years old. It was quite a shock for me cause Im used to having high energy dogs such as German Shepards!
Pugs remind me of cats so much!
Super cute! Martine looks like she’s having a great time with Gizmo. I have a lot of similar pictures of Aurora with Yoshie (Chuck and Vickie Evans’ dog – a chow-mix) and Simba (my deceased kitty). Nothing as cute as these pics, though. Gotta love it when animals and kids get along!
I enjoyed looking at the photo of your costume & then went and checked out your friends blog. Great ph otos!
I love pugs!!!!!! They are so cute!
Hi
I know this is an older topic, but i wanted to add my “two cents” for anyone who is looking for information on flying with a pug in the future.
I’m a Canadian, but my pug was born in Poland and has a European Union passport. He’s almost 2 years old now, and we have made several international flights together.
Lufthansa allows pets in-cabin, but book early because there’s generally a limit of two pets per flight. I have a soft sided carrier from Celltei, which i highly reccomend because it comes with back pack straps.
My pup has made three cross-atlantic flights in the past two years, and many more flights within Canada and Europe.
The one time I had to put my little guy in the “cargo” area of the plane, he was desperately unhappy and peed all over. When he travels in-cabin with me, he will hold his bladder/bowels for the whole flight.
I’ve never had an airline weigh my dog, but they will want you to know the combined weight of dog + carrier when you make the reservation. I always say 10lbs.
At the airport, expect to be taking your pup in and out of the carrier several times – at the ticket counter and definitely at security. I find that the ticket agents warm up considerably when they see my funny little guy.
I always have a lot of fun travelling with my pug.
Your little girl is adorable and the pug is adorable. Together they are too cute for words. This is a awesome site, kudos to you.
weird but cute!!!!!!
omg its sounds perfect for my dog
This advice is right on…..both my husband and I trained dogs for ten or fifteen years, with a local all breed club. He advanced and me puppies. Then we took the last 10 years off. So we know exactly what we are doing wrong.
A year ago, our Pug Tiffany came to us at 7 months of age, from a show breeder that did not work on house training, but she was crate trained.
Tiffany is 100% with us, but when she visits my sons house overnight, she has had and accident or two. Not sure why.
Tiffany does not walk through the door before us, nor does she bark when people come through the door. She does however sleep with us. Nobody is perfect!
I want a healthy pug really bad. please if you can I would take a pug sincerly kobe
love pugs
i have 1 named harley
OMG that was too funny! I love Shelby and all her little costumes. But the other site was priceless.
And don’t worry… you are not alone!
gotta love pets. always happy to see ya, always loyal
It is clear who has actually bothered to read this post before commenting, and who just jumped in with both greedy guns a-blazin’. I think that if a person can’t even bother to read a blog post (that rightfully speaks out against the hidden costs of “free” and “discount” pugs), that person should certainly not own a dog at any price.
Sincere thanks for this post. It seems to me that there is only heartbreak and bankruptcy down Free Pug Road.
Kim, I have not noticed a difference in my Tripett. Maybe you got some from a shipment that had not been cared for properly (left in the sun too long?)
I’m not saying you did this, but for other people who might read this post, please always buy from a reputable dealer.
i love this wedsite it is so cool i love pugs.
I Have a Pug Named Homey.She Is Fat And I Love Her Soooo Much
Love,
Chynna June Watt
I Men’t Honey.LOL
CUTE BLOG!!!!
pugs are so cute! and this is certainly priceless. great photos!
That is a “multifunction” stroller. Ahh..cute pugs..no need to clean up floor anymore
05/19/09 To help with our dog’s shedding we use Dinovite and it is been a blessing for us if you are tired of hair every where I suggest you go to the web site and check it out Dinovite.com you start on the and you will wonder where this has been all your life
i just recently found red spots on my black pug Homer and he was just playing with my other dog so I surfed the web looking for answers but none seem to descibe it it is towrds the somach area he has never had them befor. what are they? my other dog seems fine i cheked to see if he had it to but he has no red spots
We’ve had our pug Brutus for 4 years (He looks and acts just like the pug on Pocahontas) and we have a chihuahua, Bella – also for 4 years. Anyway we love Brutus but this shedding has got to stop. I laughed at all the posts – especially the “hair tumbleweeds” – its good to know we are not alone. Our vet prescribed Royal Canin Skin Support food for both dogs since one sheds and the other had a bout of D-Mange a year after we got her. The food is expensive and we haven’t seen enough of a difference to justify keeping them on it – we are definitely going to try the Omega oils. We are going to transition them off of the expensive food and onto something a little more affordable, but still healthy. Any suggestions?
Question about the trimming – does it change the texture of their hair? One of the things I love so much about Brutus is his hair color and hair quality and Im afraid shaving him is going to change not only the way he looks, but also the way he feels to the touch. I suspect it would be like the difference between the feel of a silky mane and a Jarhead’s burr. Anyone?
I am looking for a young black male pug for my kids they are very sad
becouse their chewy go killed and they loved him so much. If you can find us another one please contact me.
I agree its true that cheap pug pups are from breeders who only do it for the money. I got one five years ago. His name is Pursey and he is cippled in his front elbow but he dosen’t let it hold him back. I didn’t have the heart to return him to the breeder, they would just put him down. Now is very loved by our entire family. He completes us.
Thanks alot that was very helpful. I’ll thinkabout that when I buuy a puppy from someone.
i want a free girl pug puppy. my email address is alexwashere93@yahoo.com. email me if anyone has one ![]()
thanks
Is there an annual pug social in Nyc? If you know of one can you mail me the deets?
Thanks,
Heather
Hi there
as far as I understand NO DOGS can fly in cabin when going into England….sigh. They have to be in hold or cargo. It is no the airlines that won’t allow it, it is the UK pet transport rules that prohibit them from being in cabin.
You can sail over on the Queen Mary
You can fly Swiss Air with dogs in cabin(I don’t know their pug policy) into France.
Where there is a will there is a way.
Our dog was shedding like crazy so we switched our dog’s food to Blue and added a supplement from Dinovite. It took a few weeks to notice a difference but he sheds very little now.
I use Dinovite for my dog’s shedding. It works great! If I run out, I notice a difference right away. He has long hair, so believe you and me, I know when he is shedding!
I WANT A PUG PUPPY…BUT I DONOT HAVE MONEY TO PAY FOR IT…
CAN YOU HELP ME.
I LOVE DOGS…I BELV THEY ARE MAN’S BEST FRIEND…..I WOULD BE HAPPY IF I GET PAIR…OR IF NOT THAT EVEN ONE PUP WOOULD BE OK..BUT A PAIR WOULD BE COMPANY.
That video is adorable! My pug likes to play fetch when it’s a tennis ball or one of his toys that sqweak. But, this is where he gets funny, he will only play fetch indoors. When we go to dog parks, he sits there just like your pugs and watches me toss the ball.
My pug is a rescue pug who was kept in a crate for weeks at a time with his first owner, so he REFUSES to enter the crate. No amount of treats in the world was gonna get him in that crate. So to prevent problems with marking I used something called a belly band which seemed to fix the problems. (It’s a piece of cloth with velcrow that you put around their bodies and velcrow in the back. ) I would put a maxi-pad into the belly band so when he lifted his leg, he would pee into the pad and his scent would not be left in the house. In about two weeks he understood that he could not mark his territory in the house and the problem has been solved.
the product very helpfull Very nice article! Never heard of the site, but will certainly check it out after I leave this comment. Great job matt!
I was interested in the idea of shaving our Pug since he gets so hott in the summer. I called all of the groomers in my area (Northeast) and NONE of them would even consider shaving a Pug. In fact they seemed insulted that i thought they would. They refused to shave a Pug. They said that Pugs need their coats because it keeps them cool in the summer and warm in the winter. They said the outter coat repells the heat in summer. Just thought i’d pass that along and was wondering if anyone else had encountered the same issue.
love your site! i live in the Phils and i am owned by a pug, too! your princess and her pug brothers look so happy together!
Sounds like you have been busy! Martine has gotten so big! She is beautiful. Gadget looks like he is waiting for her to drop it already lol
Wow! Congrats on finishing law school. I hopes you use your new degree to represent repressed pugs everywheres!
Martine is adorable. That was nice of her to give her bed to the puggies!
~Harry Pugalicious
Congrats on the law school completion and good luck on the bar prep. My cousin is doing the same thing (her grad was May 16th). Thanks for the update! Poor Gadget so deprived without his treat!
Hey, i have a brussels griffion x pug. And he is one of the best things that has ever happened to me. We brought him as a pure breed brussels griffon from a pet store wit no papers. But over the last 3 years of having him he has shown many pug traits. He has a curly tail and a wider face and more wringly face, he is short haired/ smooth cote with the posture of a pug yet the trim body of a griffon. When ever anyone would meet him they would greet him as a pug if they hadnt met a brussels griffon before. And a vet once told me he had definite Pug in him. But i didnt no what to say wen people asked! and now i no there is such hybrid with a name, a Brug!!! thankyou random Brug website!!!!
How cute! I love Martine’s bedding. Where did it come from? I also love that they have learned to take over her bed. Our pug does the same to our bed!
Lexy sleeps inside grandma’s suit case every time she comes over for the weekend. She curls up inside right on top of all the clothes. And if I bring home a shopping bag with some soft items inside like towels or clothes, Lexy curls up and makes that her new bed too. They are funny little characters.
Those pics are so cute! I am a pug owner as well!
Gadget is so cute! BonnieBoo loves to curl up in all kinds of boxes. Keep the great pictures coming.
well i have to say my pug(CHARLIE) shed alot he’s now 2 yrs old and its getting worst hope it slows up when he gets five.
Hannah,
The bedding is a combination of her original crib bedding and some toddler bedding we just bought. The crib bedding is made by Dwell and can be seen on Dwell’s website and the other pieces are from a cheaper line that Dwell actually makes for Target in the same colors in their toddler bedding section. We bought the crib bedding from Dwell before Dwell was making a cheaper line of baby and toddler bed linens for Target, otherwise we would have just bought all of the cheaper stuff from Target to begin with. Dwell is a great company and I am glad that they are now offering some of their designer lines at lower prices at Target.

Why don’t you just tell us how to prevent the dog from chasing the cars instead of selling your fav product???????????
omg pugs are the cutest dogs eva!!! and i just love the way thay snort and sneeze so cute!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad to hear Gadget is comfortable. He must have just needed a change of pace?
i have a really aggressive pug, he is only 9 months old but he goes mental when anybody he doesnt know comes to my house, can anybody help!!
Classic Puggy tongue
i really want a free girl pug pup.
i’m going to get my pug lexi’s hair cut tomorrow for the first time. honestly, i am really scared. I’m worried about what she is going to look like. She sheds soooo bad right now that I really want to give it a try. wish us luck!
Let us know how it goes!!!
oh my gosh i have a pug and he is a snorter and a sleeper but he is my big huge cuddly bug, MUGGSY,
Hi there! I stumbled onto your site. We have a pug cross. She is our baby. We love her so much, but the shedding is awful. I am going to try the shaving. I hope she doesn’t get upset. She is very vain about er look.
This is my frst pug. Her name is Tiki Lee. Thank you so much for the info. I am looking for a good camera so more pics can be taken.
Thanks again for the info.

I’m looking for advice on my pugs. I have two and one is having problem breathing and I took her to the vet and it is her Tran kea and it has collapsed. I’m looking for someone that has had they same expenerience to tell me what to do.
I have that same clean-up crew at my house for our 11 month old…. I hate to admit that I’m enjoying not having to do as much post-meal clean-up myself!
I have a very well trained 2.5-year-old miniature schnauzer who acts exactly the way you described. He will see a dog across the street and seemingly go crazy…but it’s only because he is desperate to greet the other dog. Regardless of how much he barks and struggles toward the other dogs, all he does when he actually gets to the dog is sniff and greet it just like any “balanced” dog. For some reason, schnauzers just *really* want to say “hi” to every dog they meet…to the point that it appears that they are being aggressive.
All of the other dog owners in my neighborhood learned quickly that this was the case and they have no problem when he does his little freak-out…because they know he will be just fine when he gets to say hi to his doggy brethren.
I can 100% honestly say that he has never once been aggressive to any dog or human. He loves everyone and just wants attention. He plays with dogs of all sizes, children as young as infants, and everything in-between and he has never bared teeth, nipped, bitten, or done anything that could be construed as actual aggression.
Long story short, schnauzers are just loud mouths. They’re like a boisterous neighbor that just has to say hello to you regardless of how busy you are or if you have company.
so cute i want one but don`t have the money.
[...] just found out that Gadget’s going to be in the Cute Overload 2010 Calendar! (I think for his easter pug pictures that made it to their site this year and last.) Get Gizmo & Gadget updates! You can [...]
What, no 4th of July pictures of the pugs or Martine?
One of my pugs, Oswin, loves to sleep on top of the couch and the chair like that too! I had never seen another pug do it! Thanks for the pic of Oopsy!
I have a half breed tawny boxer Missy Sue (my daughter) who has mega esophagus and we would love to find her a companion. i am looking for a female pug puppy. We would be a very loving home to a pug puppy in need of a good loving home with lots of walks and car rides. We have 65 acres to walk on. We just put out almost $5,000 to save the boxer and would love to get a little one too… At the moment we have about $300 to buy a puppy. I am fine with having one that has been rescued. We live in PA and are willing to drive in to another state to pick one up depends on how far. no more than a days drive there and back. Please e-mail me with any info on dogs in my area or where to even look.
My e-mail is missysuesmith2006@yahoo.com sorry it didn’t make it into last message
Both of our Pugs LOVE sleeping on the back of the sofa too and it’s too cute!
Our pug Tilly does this too! It’s so cute.
they are so cute
[...] asked me about how to stop pug shedding the other day. I wrote up a big post about how to stop pug shedding three years ago, but here’s my current strategy. My current thoughts are that you can’t [...]
What exactly does “furminate” mean??
Oops, sorry. A furminator is a de-shedding tool that’s like a fine comb made of metal. If you look over on the right side, there’s an Amazon box labeled “Urban Pug Recommends” that has a yellow furminator.
I triend to comment but I don’t think it worked so I’ll try again.
I bought a pet vacuum with a furminator attachment and it works great!!!
How adorable is this!?!?? I know this pug is pampered and loved! Keep the pictures coming.
Minnie sheds an incredible amount! A furminator is a must. As are adhesive lint rollers (for a quick furniture clean off before company comes).
I have to look into the pet vacuum with the furminator attachment…I didn’t realize there was such a thing.
how much are your pug puppies
DANG!! smart girl! =D
They’re all so cute and she’s adorable! Smart lil’ cookie she is!
Sooo cute! It’s neat to see your little girl growing up with the pugs! My fave video is still the one where Martine is fetching but the pooches just watch lol
I’m trying to find out some information on cloudy eyes. My 7 1/2 year old pug has been through some tough times here lately. She is the most loveable pug ever…she’s my best friend. My vet teases me that I’ve had Harley longer than my husband. Anyway…we noticed Harley drinking and peeing alot. Then noticed she just was not feeling well. We took her in and stayed at the vet’s office for 5 days…vet got scared a couple days because she was getting worse…but had pancreaitis (sp). It took a week or so but got her doing better…have her on insulin twice a day and a special diet. Now last Tues I noticed that she stepped on her toy and kinda ran into the side of the wall. By Wed it was like she was totally blind. Took her to vet and it’s not cataracts…she did see one forming but nothing to be concerned about and glucoma was good. All looked fine. She didn’t seem concerned…thought it would clear itself up…probably from the insulin. Then Sun I had to meet the vet because her right eye she didn’t want to open. She has an infection in it…so got her on drops for it…But the vet is unsure of this condition and what it could be. I’m trying to do my own research as well. Harley is so sad and I just want to make her better. Anyone heard of anything like this? Would you email me at belanders@ymail.com if you have. Thanks! Pugs ARE the best!!
What a smart little girl!!
I just noticed the link to the Lucha Pugs and you’re own luchadora Shelby. We should start a circuit! (Awesome outfit)
I have two pugs, Maximus and Mulligan. (We named him Mulligan because he is Max’s son and we joked that we needed a mulligan which is a do over in golf).
Anyways, we have shaved our pugs about 2-3 times every year for the past two years. I RARELY see any hair on my clothes and/or furniture. It really works! Plus, they don’t look bad with short hair. I cut it myself to 1/8 of an inch. They look really light coated and skinnier but… they look really good… just make sure you taper the hair on their heads or else they will look like they have a bowl cut!
I have had my pug Reggie shaved for the first time today thanks to this site! He still looks great, in fact I think he looks beter, and nor more mess! this site is a godsend. How often do they need to be shaved? I am hoping to only do it once every 8-10 weeks, but have a feeling that it may be shorter intervals!
Wow,..a Petaholic..!!
what kind of an “aholic”…
A pet,..an luvely animal oround our home.
I am agree,..to love an animal,..whatever animal in this earth..
include a dog,..altough I must still care with a higienity of this dog..for my condtional of my pray…,Sorry
Congrats to Gadget for making it into the CuteOverload calendar!
It’s so great to see these videos! I showed my mom this website, and when she was at work the other day, she found some of her colleagues checking it out too!
so cute
It is always fun to stir up the old photos and pleasant memories. Pugs are just so cute you have to smile at them.
Two very cute pugs who are probably very happy you’ll have more time to spend with them! Congrats on finishing up!
This is so cute! I simply love Pugs and Bostons. Must be something about those faces. She’s a lucky girl!
Grats on finishing Law School and completing the Bar Exam. What kind of law are you hoping to focus on?
IP Law – Patent/Copyright/Trademark
Ours is almost two years old, and she’s the same way. In the beginning, it was only when my son played Mario on the Wii, she’d run herself to death chasing him. This past weekend she cried, CRIED and WHINED, through the entire commercial that Noah Wylie is doing about the polar bears going extinct?!!??!!
She also goes nuts for America’s Funniest Video when they have animals, and we tried to watch the Shaggy Dog and it made her go nuts. It’s hilarous.
THANK YOU KIRSTIN! My pugs do this too! And Wendy mine react to that polar bear commercial as well as the california cheese ones with the cows, or anything with a horse, and the Duke the dog commercials for the beans. They practically do flips… but it’s just our 2 puppy mill rescues, not the one who has been a house-pug all his life.
DYING to find a way to stop this. Our flat screen shakes from them jupming on the stand!!! We yell their names and “NO” but it sureee doesn’t work. I posted videos of this a while back on my blog, I’ll see if I can find it and add it to the comments.
Hoping someone has suggestions.
http://pugandbugg.blogspot.com/2009/05/random-thursday.html
Video proof of their craziness at the end of the post.
I think it’s the fact that commercials are designed to be a lot louder than regular shows are. It’s probably too loud for you pugbaby.
Mine still do it when we mute it!
Would they still react this way if just mute the commercials? Or would the pugs react the same way when there are animals on the TV and no sound? I don’t know about the Wii. Can you mute that sound or turn it to low when the dogs are in the room?
greentripe.com
see what u think
i would suggest trying clicker training. get a clicker, and for a few days just click it, then give a treat, click it, then give a treat, click it, then give a treat. make sure they associate the clicker noise with a treat. then start slowly with the tv at a low volume. turn it on. click, treat, click, treat, click treat. try it at a higher volume, click, treat, click treat. it may take a while, but maybe they’d eventually associate it with the clicks and treats rather than freak out fest.
I was watching 2001: A Space Odyssey on my 42in the other night, and my pug Totoro was barking his head off at the opening with the people in the monkey costumes. There were other times he just laid next to me and was watching the movie. I was surprised because he never took hes eyes off the screen. It was the funniest thing to watch. I tend to notice my pug only barks at a few things when I watch movies or television. Sometimes its when there are other animals or certain people. At first he use to jump off the bed and sit away so he couldn’t see the screen now he just lays on the bed and ignores the tv, except for when something catches his eye.
My Pugs bark at the Sprint direct-connect commercial, anything with large dogs or animals, and go especially nuts when a phone or doorbell rings on tv. I can understand the sounds, but I thought dogs have two-dimensional sight and can’t register pictures!
So stinking cute!!!!
Oh, Titi, you are something else!
XOXOXO
Love,
Mimi
I rarely post on here, but I have to tell you how cute those videos are! I always look forward to coming here and seeing what sort of cute pictures you have up of your beautiful daughter and beautiful dogs!
Show her the picture of the school bus in her Elmo book. She saw it the other night and I’m positive she said “school bus” and pointed to it. I was singing the song…the wheels on the bus…and she pointed to the bus and said it!! Her vocabulary is getting better everyday.
it sounds good for all of the enzyme’s. after you can it though, all the enzymes are destroyed, so whats the point? Np more enzymes are left.>
Loretta, you are right that heat does “cook” the tripe in the canning process, but it’s nowhere near as much as if it were really thoroughly “cooked.”
Regardless, my pugs have been healthy and love the tripe even after over a year of eating it every day.
What a cutie! I admit to having visions of disaster as she approached the red truck and the pug was by the tree — pug one way, Martine the other? Oh no! Those leashes are hard to keep untangled … even for an adult!! Great job, Martine!
Hi i am karhtick and i am looking for a free to cheap pug puppy.Had any one can help me, my contact number is +91 9947334550 or my mail address s karty16s@hotmail.com. I just love animals.
Thank YOu.
This is absolutely adorable!
I have a four and half month fawn pug called Lily.
Since I got her at eight weks her ears have been more up than down, sometimes one up and one down, I think this may be flying ears? I’ve taped a very small coin on the tip of her ear to weight it or tip the ear over. I’ve taken these off after a week and found this a succsess for about one -two days then they start to pop up again standing very strongly up. I’ve been doing this since I got her. Will they go down or should I continue with process? I’m really worried they will be permanantly up and she looks very odd with her ears standing straight up!
I look forward to hearing from you.
Regards. Adrienne Reed
It’s hard to explain exactly how to tape them, but taping a penny is not the right way. You should ask your breeder or your vet the proper way to tape the ears.
Super cute video. Just imagine – in a couple of years you can let her walk the dogs by herself. Won’t that just be the cutest? =)
OMG, this was so cute and touching, that i started to cry! So sweet!!
it’s something about feeling safe and snug…he’s adorable!
aloha, leslie
What a beautiful little lady! She really enjoys her pugs! Please give Martine and the fur kids a big hug and kiss for us.
BonnieBoo & Mom

I’m a huge fan of your website…and the little pugs! I’ve been a life-long pug lover and am now considering getting one of my own.
I love your pugs and was hoping that you share with me the breeders that you got them from.
Thanks!
Liz
thanks for sharing.
if there was one thing i’d change about a pug, i bring up their shedding problem.
without having to clean up all that discarded hair, our lives would be soooo much easier!
leslie
Awww how cute!
I can’t click on …………SEND AN ECARD…………. won’t open
I have two pugs both altered male and female.. Eddie and Lucy both I have rescued. They are so loving grateful and so me more unconditional love than a human., Therefore, it is a lot of work because they shed all over the house and me. I am trying to brake them from eating other dogs/cats poop when they have the opportunity. They love I mean love to eat . You have to watch what and how much they eat they get fat easy and it is bad for their health. They snort, snore, they are meant to be inside dogs to much heat can cause a stroke or very bad skin lesions. They like to sleep a lot, and lovee your attention they cant get enuff, they follow you around the house, theu insist on going bye bye in the car so they are like kids and yes they circle and circle when they poop and if they get distracted they have to start over, LOL but all n all I LOVE MY PUGS AND THEY LOVE ME such a great companion dog.
I had to train my dogs to poop if you walk them with a leash around the yard and every time they go potty praise them a few minutes like a child GOOD BOY and pet them. The boy pugs are harder to train, but once I added a girl pug he picked up on her bathroom behavior of outside;0).I still occasioanly on rainy days ahve accidents with the boy pug. but walkign with the leash adn praisign seemed to work. GOT TA LOVE THE PUG
yes thehy lick but better than yappers or ankle bitters They just like to show love, maybe if the rest of the world was kind like pugs we would solve world peace
O.M.G. the piture of the pug and that little baby looked so so so so cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
O.M.F.G. THE BABY PUG AND THAT PUG LOOKED SO SO SO SO SO SO CUTE TOGETHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My 11 month pug Bily gave birth 2 months ago and i was shock to see her shed so sooo much…but she eats well i just dong like to see her that way as if she is going to get bald…help pls…
If Gadget is in there, I really need to buy it now. And then hold my breath until April 5th.
That’s great!!!!! Congrats, Gadget!
I’m not sure if this really works, but I’ve been giving my little Pug flax seed oil. I’ve also been feeding her a homemade diet. She still sheds heavily during the spring but not as much throughout the year as when I was feeding her dry dog food.
I should mention that I live in China and getting the good premium kibble is not easy.
oh how sweet! they look so content.
i’m glad they’re sharing the bed.
leslie
I’ve got two pugs and I love that dog bed. I’ve never seen one like that. If you wouldn’t mind, where did you happen to buy that?
Love the pugs!
we found it browsing on amazon. i’ll update this post to show the link to the bed.
Keep me posted as to local P
“Pug” functions!
Our Pug,Frank, is a demon dog!
Linda
LOVE this book! will definitely be getting it, thanx for the review!
@Gordon: I completely agree with your comment. I have a 2 year old mini schnauzer, and she’s fairly well trained. We’re still working on her pulling on the leash at times. I think for Schnauzer’s this is a hard instinct to break them of. They were trained to hunt and sniff out rodents right?
At any rate, when Frankie sees another dog, she gets so excited she’ll pull to the point of panting really really loud like she’s choking. I usually just stop, tell her to sit (which she ignores at that point and requires me to push her butt down a little), and rub her chest, which calms her down. She just stares at the other dog, and I let the other dog owner come over if she wants them to meet. She’s starting to learn that that’s the way she’s going to meet another dog.
As far as the original poster is concerned, I completely understand your concern. Schnauzer’s are the typical bark is worse than their bite dog. Frankie has never bitten another dog/person in her life. But her growl is crazy! She sounds like a rabid gremlin and it can be scary to those who aren’t familiar with Schnauzers. Frankie routinely plays with two other hounds in the building on my patio, and her play growl is so creepy that I’m worried sometimes that the rest of the building thinks I’m fighting dogs in my condo! I commend you for admitting that you had the instinct to physically protect your dogs, though of course I don’t condone it. At least you recognize your instinct and you can be aware of it so you don’t actually physically hit another dog.
Sorry for the long post, but just know that the Schnauzer might need some training, but it sounds like he’s just acting normally and probably isn’t dangerous. They sound worse than they really are!
We take our pug to the groomers once every few months and can’t believe how soft she is when she gets back. Plus they do a great job getting her nails shorter then we dare to.
i have the same canvas bag…now I have an urge to put one of my pugs in it……
Is Oopsy the only one who allows this
i love all your pugs names.
Natures Miracle will stop indoor marking. Wash the area with this. Can be found in the pet section of all major stores. My pug was easily trained. We used a cat box with natural materials at 6 weeks and he was house broken by 10 weeks, no more need for the box. You must take them potty every 30-40 minutes to be successful to break marking habits. My pug is un neutered and has only marked our house 1 time, when we had a bare stud exposed in a doorway during a remodel. I reprimanding him for his mistake and have not had any further problems. He is now 3 years old. The heavy shedding is the biggest complaint I have and the “snarfing” since they have narrow sinuses. I have my feet showered several times a day when I wear sandals by my pug. I expect it however.
Gizmo does look totally comfy in there. Very cute video.
Who needs toys when there are PUGS around!! She loves those pugs!!
Hi..I’ve just “discovered” Trippet and like Melanie, the can of Advanced Coat Formula is blackish/gray. It smelled terrible when I first opened the can but now that’s it’s been refridgerated it’s more tolerable. I have two Boston Terriers and one has a very sensitive digestive system..almost everything except high fibre kibble gives him “pudding poo”. So far the Trippet has not bothered his tummy and I’m only adding a teaspoon to his kibble once /day. I have noticed an increase in their energy level and their coats are just gleaming after only a week of being on the product. The bad news is that I’m having to pay $2.99 a can for the product! I live on Vancouver Island and between ordering on-line & shipping it would be even more expensive. My pet store won’t sell it by the case.
Oh..this made my day.
I smile with Martine so bad.
Your Gizmo and Oopsy are great baby sitter.
(I also count on Gadget, too – the shopping bag pal)
Hi Brooke,
Hi Kay,
If either of you breed your albino pugs and they produce another, please let me know. I’m dying to own one.
Thanks!

Hope gadget is doing better !! Hi my name is shep and we have a black pug ( 6 yrs old ) he has been having problems with ulcers on his eyes . Today ( Sept.11 2009 ) i had to take him to the vet again . The pressure from the ulcer has formed a type of clocoma ( SORRY SPELLIN ) and the eye turned a bluey haze , but magically after the first application of the medication the blue haze has disappeared . I’m so happy i had to tell somebody i did’t no , becuase my friends and family would think i’m nuts getting so upset about a dog !! I’m sure u think as i do, they are not just a dog there a good friend !! Thanks for listening Shep & my little man diezel !
very cute!!!!!
Gizmo’s face was really funny. He seems to enjoy it but in indifferent face. ha ha
I have a white Pug. She is not albino, but a true white, with black eyes and nose. She is a cute little thing. Her father is white and her mother is black. She has had white before. She is going to be a small Pug, around 10 lbs. She is so smart. almost potty trained after 2 days! I owned her grandfather. He was a fawn.
I have really enjoyed watching Martine grow up with these absolutely tolerant pugs. They are the cutest!
Its been so fun posting on the sad pug facebook page. i think we fans totally ran with your first pic!
lol, i want a pug bag!!
havnt you heard?? Pug hair(on EVERYTHING you own) is in fashion,lol!!
My vet said omega 3 fish oil pills help.

hi my name is yvonne, my mothers birthday is coming up, october 19th and she wants a male pug, brown with a black face. she says no older than three years old, i was wondering if anyone has one for sale or knows anyone that has a pug for sale i live in modesto, california
my email is mizz_14ktdreams@yahoo.com please email me if you have any info thank you
I have a 9 month old pug, his name is Franky, he has been rubbing his left eye, I try to check and I can tell it hurts him. I used some saline solution to clean it, but it seems not to work, I have read about Cherry Eye, and looks like that may be what he has. I will call tomorrow and see when the Vet can take him in. Hopefully it isn’t too serious. He plays hard and rough when it comes to his sisters, {who are a yellow lab, and a smaller black lab mix} so he could have maybe scratched it while playing with them or with his 2 legged brother with his “Raffie” {a small stuffed Giraffe} I hope they can see me tomorrow.
Hi Matt. Just read all the recent post and had several great laughs. I LOVE all the pictures and videos of Martine with the Pugs. Too precious!
she said “ummm” when feeding Gadget.
I love you said “The brainwash” LOL ha ha ha
My pug has one of those types of beds – it’s great for storing her “treasures” underneath too…… We put blankets on top too but she seems to push them off and just prefers to sleep on the fabric.
OMG! I’ve never seen a dog open her mouth to eat off a spoon. So cute! I love that they both eat off the same spoon too!
All I can do is laugh out loud as she puts the spoon in Gadget’s mouth and then into her own!!! Adorable!
Lexy would love it if Martine came over and fed her with a spoon for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Lexy hates to put her face down on a doggie dish. She will sit and stare at her dish for a very long time and then walk away. She’d rather be spoon fed or fed by hand any day. I guess pugs like to be babied and pampered.
WE actually have the Spotbot and it works picking up Magda’s stains from eating the last of her Buddha Bones.
Oh no gizmo, i hope u’ll be ok… is a bee stung dangerous?
Benedryl works too. Our little pug had an allergic reaction to the rabies vaccine (probably the eggs), and our vet recommended Benedry.
Poor Gizmo!!!! Harry was attacked by a bee not long ago, but luckily he didn’t have any adverse reactions.
Please bring me the benadryl and aspirin if I’m going to be his nurse for a few days. Poor puppy!!
Hope Gizmo is feeling better soon. Roxy got bit or stung not sure which,
in our back yard. When she came inside I noticed her lip was swollen.
We took her to the vet and they gave her a shot and she was better the next day but it was very scary. Hope Mo Mo will be back on his paws soon.
Maybe Martine will have to nurse him back to health with some yogurt. lol
I started following at their 4th so once again–Happy Happy Birthday Gizmo and Oopsy too.
Happy Barkday Gizmo & Gadget!!!!!! Your cake looks really yummy!
Happy Barkday guys!!!!!! So nice to get such a yummy cake!
Hey guys. Im the new owner of a very handsome black pug called Oisín. I made a blog on our life together in Ireland. So please check it out!

my pug used to shed like crazy. i switched brands of dogfood (to lambpro and beefpro mixed) and brush him atleast 3x a day. and then i dress him too. really helped.
I have a pug and he used to shed like crazy. So we went to an animal market and asked some of the store owners what to do. They recommended we feed him something different but still dog food. After 2 days the shedding lessened. After 2 more days shedding stopped. I am surprised that the only factor that was making him shed was because he wasn’t eating the right dog food, and now that I’ve found the right food life is much better.

i love pugs and the one with glasses are so cute!
good i love it xxx
i wont to get it and kiss it

A little late, but my cat flew Continental and a blanket in the crate was fine. I also highly recommend DriFur pads which keeps the crate dry in case of spillage of water or accidents….absorbent material is required and these act like diapers with gel that pulls moisture away. They do work…I used them on a XC drive. They also help keep the crate a little warmer. They are also the first airline approved under the UK’s regs for pet transport thru the PETS program.
As for “the cargo hold”, pets are in an area where the temperature and the air is the same as that up in the cabin. They are in a different area than luggage.
I have fallen head over heels for the albino pug. Has anyone found someone whom has an albino and breeds them? If so please contact me asap. Thanks to everyone!
Happy Birthday G & G…belated birthday to Oopsy, too!!! That cake looks delicious! Pug kisses!

Hey guys – is that you in the picture? Oh, pretty scary!
The fact that so many groomers are willing to turn down business, to prevent a pug from being shaved should tell you something. You are free to ignore the advice of those with experience in the subject matter; however be prepared for the negative effects of shaving your pug. I worked as a dog groomer in college, and yes it’s possible to ruin their double coat by shaving it. More important than aesthetics, should be the health and safety of your pug. The double coat serves a purpose to certain breeds by protecting against extreme weather. This is even more vital for pugs since they are flat faced (brachycephalic). In short, the pugs’ anatomy makes it more difficult to cool off by panting. Since they cannot cool off effectively through panting, the undercoat helps to regulate their body temperature.
Possible negative effects:
1. Heat Stoke
a. Lack of protection for the elements
B. Groomer using a heated dryer in their kennel
2. Clipper Burn & other injuries
3. Skin irritation
4. Sunburn
5. Altered condition of coat
What you should try first:
1. Supplementing dog food with Omega 3 fatty acids
2. Brushing daily
3. Bathing once a week with an oatmeal based shampoo (most dogs you should only wash every two weeks)
4. Putting T-shirts on your pug (sounds nutty, but it helps)
If you do decided to shave your pug, at least take the precautions to keep your pet safe and healthy.
My pug oscar is a sweetheart but he started marking the inside of the house everywhere. I found out he had a urinary infection. He is on medication. He stopped doing the marking for about four or five days then started it up again. It is very frustrating. I have two pugs both males, Louie does not urinate in the house. If this problem does not stop after Oscar is done with the medication I don’t know what I’ll do. Please help. The other problem I have with oscar is he watches T.V. He leaps at dogs or any animals on the T.V. he just goes crazy. He really watches and will not look away.Does anyone have this problem? Is there hope for any of this because it would be terrible without them, they our are babies.
I live very close to Louisiana and would love a free pug. If anyone has free pugs in or around Wharton County drop me an e-mail.
nice pug pictures
im starting to create my own pug blog, when im finish i will post on it.

If you are a pug lover and a twilight lover then you have to check out these t-shirts. You can now have teh best of both worlds with “Me Heart Vampires” brand.
Looking for a fawn male, puppy or under 8 months old pref. Maybe someone that has one they can’t keep anymore or just doesnt have the time for it,. We have two black girls now and cant seem to find a brother anywhere. We paid almost a thousand each for our girls but we are no longer to afford this. The care I provide and the life quality are more important than the cost. Let me know if anyone has a male for us, we are in North Georgia. Thanks!
Cute cute cute!
We left something for the pugs on our blog!
Absolutely adorable. Thank you for shairing. I look forward to this site everyday to check out what the pugs and baby girl are up to.
looking form a black pug puppy for my child and me. can you help?
What IS it with pugs and the backs of sofas? It’s like their favorite spot ever as a breed.
Yes. I agree. They love to be comfy cozy at all times.
OMG… my pug does that too…
Pugs are like Yurtle the Turtle, they rule all they survey
I adopted a 3yr old pug and was told that he was not house broke. This was scary, but I am happy to say we have had no problems. I attribute this to our well behaved llasa apso. I think he trained the pug. Our pug has been with us for almost a year and I am pleased to say we have had no problems with him at all!
my pugs eye is swoolen and we do not now what it is. we just motest it at 3pm today and i just that he was tierd case we did not sleep at all and it got biger so what should i do. thank you

I think someone gave her a home!
Hi I am interested in a pug and would like one fairly cheap or free. I have children and we have been considering getting a puppy and these ones are so adorable. I live in west virginia and if anyone would like to donate a pug or sell me one at a reasonable price that would be great. Thanks
my email is alisha-21@hotmail.com
Poor Gadget! We hope the special food takes care of the problem. I guess Martine will have to learn to say “no” when he begs for her food now :-/
Oh no Gadget! My pugs has bad food allergies too. He’s on the potato/venison diet, very restrictive, but luckily he loves it. I think being a pug makes you love all food. He’s on the steroids too, and it’s been a massive help. He’s a happy pug now! Hopefully it’ll work for Gadget too!
Hope new diet works, and that Gadget gets better.
Poor poor Gadget! I’m so glad he’s okay though. Our Daisy had the same long line of stitches from removal of a breast cancer tumor but she was overweight so it was like a tummy tuck for her.
Hope Gadget feels better!
Poor baby!
I really!!!!!!! Want a pug that is free. That is fawn, male, and is named Sparky!!!!!! Please please pleas let me have a pug that is close to Oregon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i wanted one for 6 years!!!!!!!!! Helllllllp!!!
Poor baby Gadget! Give him lots of love, hugs and kisses. Hope the other pug babies are doing well! Hugs and Kisses to the beautiful Martine also.
Feel better Gadget!!!
Oh No! I hope you feel better soon Gadget.
We are so sad to hear he is sick, we love following your blog and we feel like we know him. We are sending healthy thoughts!
Oh the poor boy!
The steroids will make him hungrier as well, so when he is able to come off them and his portions bumped up i am sure he will be fine (well as fine as pugs can be lol)
I hope he gets better quickly!!
My Jazz loves the back of the sofa also.
We took her to Lafreneire Park on Saturday. The last time I took her it was so hot and she did not do well. This time she did well but preferred to be held after walking a bit.
Hope Gadget is doing well. Get well soon little puggy!!
We follow your blog for a while and love your pugs like as ours. hope everything will be alright.
Hi, I am planning to fly to Montreal from India with my 11/2 year old pug and am very confused if Lufthansa will carry him. I can’t find any other airliens that will and and absolutely perplexed by the situation. Can I carry him in the cabin or would cargo be better? Please help.
I own a brug and she is adoreable. She’s smart funny cute cuddly and great with our kids. We can’t get enough of her!!!!
.
I have had the pleasure of raising 4 pugs. They have brought me and my husband great pleasure and comfort. I also have adopted a beautiful black cocker spaniel to join our family but pugs will always be close to my heart.
Poor Gadget! Hope he’s feeling better!
Lovely blog, I love reading it, but I am worried about how heavy your pug is! It’s almost double the recommended weight for a pug :/

Oh how adorable! Congrats on the new additions!
Congratulations!!!! We hope the pugs and Martine are adjusting well to all the changes. Love the name!
What else can I say
Congratulations and thanks for the adorable pictures. I hope OOpsy is ok?
There are several ways to housebreak a puppy. With the first, you can put down papers or pretreated pads, encouraging them to use these areas for going to the bathroom. The pads are scented with a chemical that attracts the puppy to use them.
Congrats!! Marigny is a beautiful name and she is adorable! I cannot believe how big Martine is now.
I bet you are sad to see Oopsy go, is Demi going to be staying with you for awhile?
Wow! I can’t believe how many people didn’t actually read this post! They instead just saw the title and hoped to get a handout! If they aren’t willing to pay for aquiring a dog then are they going to be willing to pay for veterinary care? From my experience, NO!
It really frustrates me when people say that they want a certain type of animal for FREE and then specify that they will only accept fully trained, a certain sex, up to date with veterinary care etc.
Haven’t they ever heard the saying “BEGGERS CAN’T BE CHOOSERS!”
I have a mini Schnauzer. He happens to be about 9 months old. He barks and goes crazy for people and other dogs but its only because he is extremely friendly. He loves affection from us and everyone else. Not because he will attack.
My new pug felt no shame in cudling up! I see no shame either!
tripe of forest
Thanks for posting this list! Like many others I have a pug blog that was just started. You can visit at pugtrainer.blogpsot.com! Thanks

We just started doing the same thing! Our four year old still wakes up crying in the middle of the night and always ends up in our bed. So we started allowing our 9 year old black pug Lucy to sleep in her bed and its worked great so far! Especially with the storms we have been having here in the SF Bay area – Lucy is terrified of thunder and lightning, so she gets to hide under a blanket too. Everyone wins
Congratulations, on both the new baby and slimming down the big guy! We’ve got a large pug of our own (Max, 27 lbs) who needs to get smaller. Got any tips?
fantastic, i’ve never seen such a beautiful and original costume!!!!!!!!!!
i ve just got a pug…any tips to handle him??…also wats d size of a full grown pug?..nd do they all get so fat?
Lexy will be lonely if Demi doesn’t come to live with us. BUT a good night’s sleep for Mom and Dad is worth it if Demi helps Martine sleep in her own bed. Lexy sleeps with me some nights. I think she’s the one who is looking for the comfort of another body near by. She misses her roommate Honey.

Hi,
I have really enjoyed your site. Please feel free to check out <a href="http://www.dogonefunchicago.com"DoGone Fun!
look. ok here is th thing this ad is right , i have bought 2 pugs for real cheap prices (for pugs tht is) but both has had something wrong with them and neither had papers…one was named wednesday and ended up having cancer and died at 1 year snd the other is named jasper and the person i got him from gave him up too early and gave him dog food at only 3 wks. he was put in the hospital after i got him with a bad intestinal virus at 6 wks old and had to have some of his intestines taken out. he is still a happy dog and hyper as heck. and that is another thing people dont think about when getting a pug. they think they are quiet peaceful animals…and that isn’t always true. for the most part they are extreamly hyperactive dogs
I had a beautiful pug about 7 years ago and he was out side for a short time and someone took him. and I missed him more and more everyday. I would graciously appreciate a pug. My husband is now disabled and I am the sole ‘bread winner’ and cannot pay a large price for a pug. Any suggestions.
I’m in las Vegas and my parents will only let me get a free pug please help me
I lived in New Orleans for 4 years in college, and loved every minute of it! I’m rooting for the Saints tomorrow, and am glad to see Demi is too!!
love LOVE your pugs!!
Awww, so cute!
although i loved hearing about oopsy.
Let us know how she is doing from time to time =D
Who Dat! I spent the weekend in NOLA just so I could be there for the post-game celebration. Wish I could have stayed for the parade!!!
What an amazing game – and an amazing team. It was finally our year!!!
We adopted a Brug from the Oregon Humane Society. Aside from being diagnosed with Yeast Candida, having chronic yeast ear infections and constant itching to the bone…he is THEE BEST, most cutest, cuddliest, grateful thing we have ever adopted. I love him to death, named him Chewy from Star Wars (not a fan of SW, but he looks identical). He’s 5, has a severe under bite, great with kids of all ages, loves old people (I work at an assisted living facility), and doesn’t mind our guinea pigs or cats. I just can’t get enough of him!!!!
Wow! You two are ready for the festivities and looking sharp. Soon the beads will come! Happy Mardi Gras to you, too.
i have my albino pug, Fergie. she is 10 months now and i had a few questions regarding care. i always treated her as a normal do, but im wondering if i should be doing something different?
I’m so sorry to hear about Gadget!! I will definitely say a prayer for the little guy.
St. Francis of Assisi, take care of Gadget and get him well and home!
Oh no… poor, poor Gadget. I hope he gets better soon – stay strong!
So sorry to hear that’s he’s not doing well. You are in our thoughts.
I am so very sorry to hear that Gadget is sick. You ALL are in my prayers. And I’m saying an extra prayer for Gadget
Very sorry to hear that. I’m going to snuggle Max, Bert and Rose tonight and we’ll all say a special prayer for their internet cousin. We love seeing the photos and hearing all the stories.
Positive vibes to you and Gadget. Go, go, Gadget!
So sad to hear this. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
So very sad to hear the news. What joy he brought to your lives, and to thousands of ours as we watched online.
I’m sure he’s running and snorking with all my little pug friends up in heaven, and will be waiting for you at the Rainbow Bridge.
Gonna hug my three extra hard tonight.
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of Gadget.
You’re in my thoughts and prayers.
I am so so sorry… I know words won’t be much of a comfort to you but I just wanted to let you know that your family is in my thoughts. I will hug my pugs extra tight tonight…
So very sorry to hear about Gadgets passing. Such a sad time for you and your family! Hugs to you all!
my husband and I have been following your blog for years – we don’t have pugs of our own but we love reading about your adventures! just wanted to let you know that our thoughts and prayers are with your family at this time of grief. rest in peace, Gadget.
Thank you for taking time to let us know. And, thank you for sharing Gadget’s life with us. He brought many smiles and much joy to me and my family. Our thoughts are with you in your grief. I am picturing Gadget running and playing, or laying down and snoring
, in his new place across the Bridge.
I am so sorry to hear about Gadget. I will treasure his cuteness always and miss him terribly… your blog was one that inspired me to blog!!! Thank you for sharing the news and I’m praying for you and your family (which includes pugs & people of course)
xoxopughugs
Oh, no. I am so sorry. Urban Pug was the first pug website I found and I have so enjoyed your stories. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
I am so sorry for your loss! Your blog was one of the first pug blogs I found and Gadget was so much fun to follow. He’s just across the bridge now, with no pain and no worries and all fun.
Gadget will be missed
Condolences to you and your family.
I am so sorry to learn of Gadget’s passing today. I have followed your blog through many years and many changes in your life, and watching your pug family grow and adapt with your human one has been a delight. I think of G & G as my “other” pugs, and I empathize with the difficulty of losing Gadget at his age. It was obvious Gadget knew how much he was loved by everyone, canine and human, and he will always occupy a special place in our family’s heart. What a celebratory tribute you already have to him in your documentation of his life!
It’s clear to me, as I’m sure it’s clear to the rest of us, that you provided Gadget with a wonderful pug life. If it couldn’t be a long life, at least it was a happy one. Thank you so much for sharing your adventures together. One of my favorite memories of Gadget is seeing him dressed as the Easter Pug.
I am so sorry to hear about Gadget. Urban Pug was my first pug website find. It always brings joy to my heart to see and read about your pugs. My sincerest condolences.
I’m so sorry to hear about your loss. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
I am so sorry for your loss. I cannot imagine the pain you are going through.
I am saddened by the news. Thank you so much for all of the lovely posts about Gadget, I
have enjoyed your blog for years and look forward to many more memories you share.
Gadget had the best parents and we were lucky to have known that!
My heart goes out to all of you! Your lives became part of mine and his passing is like losing one of my own. My deepest condolences! Pugs and kisses always!
I’m so sorry.
Please be strong.
Gadget is so lucky to have family like you.
Healing hug
My deepest sympathies to you and your family. Gadget was a beautiful boy and will be missed.
Please accept my condolences. Urban Pug is one of my most frequently visited sites when I need a laugh and grin. You gave him a wonderful life most dogs can only dream about and now he lives in place full of happiness. He’ll continue to exist in the hearts of his loving family and us, the faithful readers of this website, his friends.
I’m so sorry about Gadget, but I’m glad you guys were blessed with him and he was blessed with you. Much love!
Though I don’t know Gadget personally, his stories and photos always made my day, and undoubtedly the days of many other people. Thank you Gadget for being you. I am very sorry for your (and the world’s) loss of such a wonderful puppy.
I’m terribly sorry to hear about your loss.
We are so sad to hear about Gadget. We love your blog and your pugs adn they inspired us to start our own pug blog. We have never left a comment before but we wanted to say we are so sorry about Gadget. Many pug hugs.
Jenn Sequoia and Tuni
I am very saddened by your loss. I have been a big fan of Gadget for years and he has always brought out a smile to me in the toughest times. My prayers are out with you and your family. Gadget’s zest and enthusiasm for life will live on always! Thank you for sharing Gadget with us all. Deep pug embrace.
Oh no. I’m so, so sorry and sad to hear about Gadget. Stay strong!
Oh no! I’m a HUGE pug lover who’s busy life doesn’t allow me a pug of my own, but it’s always with great pleasure that I’ve visited Urban Pug and lived vicariously through your photos. Gadget will be greatly missed! Sending prayers and warm wishes to you and your family. Martine must be so sad at the loss of one of her brothers, but it’s so great that you have so many wonderful photos to remember those moments by….thanks for sharing them with us!
Rest in peace, Gadget. We’ll miss you.
I am so very sorry to hear that Gadget passed over the Rainbow Bridge today. I know all his fans will miss him also. God bless you all and give Gidget and Demi extra hugs, as I know they will miss him as much as you, your husband, and the babies will. Sending extra pug luv and kisses your way.
We remember Gadget from the Pug Meet-ups at Jefferson Feed. He was a sweet, beautiful, loving pug. We are all very sorry for your loss. Alisa, Steve, Lilly & Sarah
I am so sorry about little Gadget.
What sad news. I hope you take comfort in knowing how much joy Gadget brought to people who never even met him. Thank you so much for sharing his life with us. I’m sorry for your loss.
I am so very, very sorry. My heart goes out to all of you. I will miss sweet Gadget too.
I’m so sorry for your loss….I know how you must feel, having lost my best friend, Pugsly in
November. My heart goes out to you and your family. RIP Gadget, you are free of any pain
and suffering now.
I am so incredibly sad for you. What a sweet furry boy…I am so sorry about the loss. I can only imagine. May he be at peace now. God bless and may He ease your grief.
II was so sad to hear about Gadget. You guys were the ones who introduced me to the blogging community and it just won’t be the same. 6 years just isn’t enough. My heart goes out to you.
I am so sorry, we have followed Gadget for ages….he will be missed.
Oh I am so sorry! My heart goes to you guys and poor Gizmo.
Like others above, you were one of the first pug blogs I found and it inspired me to start my own.
My thoughts are with you.
xoxo
My heart goes out to your family. Blessings for you and for Gadget.
We are so very sorry! We know the pain of losing a very loved family member. Please know that your family is in our prayers. We loved Gadget also.
Johnny, Donna, and BonnieBoo Puglet

You can’t always trust the AKC. I just recently lost my 16 mth old pug to pug encephalitis. Her parents had AKC papers but through alot of investigating I found out through the authorities that the breeder was referred to as a backyard breeder aka puppy mill. Since this is an inherited disease and either one or both parents have it, I contacted the AKC to inform them (I even had the breeders name and all the information on the parent dogs from my dogs registration form) and they told me that basically it wasn’t their problem and they didn’t want to know any info. Once upon a time you could trust in the AKC, their reputation was impeccable but not any more, they’ll register any dog that has registration papers. What a shame.
My heart goes out to you. I know how hard this is because I just lost one of my cats unexpectedly and I cried a whole month and have finally gotten to the point where there are just tears every once in awhile. I don’t think we can ever really let go but I hope eventually they are just happy memories.
We are so, so sorry and sad to hear this. We’ve followed your site for a few years, and we feel as though we knew him. What a wonderful pug he was, and we loved hearing about him. You are in our thoughts.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I feel like I lost him too. =(
hi,
So i am planning to relocate from New York to New Delhi, India. What I have found out is that Continental, Lufthansa, KLM and Air France will fly pugs as cargo. As long as you make your reservations with a pet transporter. There fees start from $2000 and up, depend on the weight of your dog, and other services that you ask for (USDA documentation, Import/Export permit, health certificates). My dog weighs 15 pounds which meets the requirement of the in cabin weight but he is tall and cannot stand up in an 8″ kennel. I would feel a lot safer if my dog is in front of me but slightly uncomfortable, rather than flying him in cargo.
My question is that he can fit into kennel that is approved for the cabin but will not be able to stand up and turn around with ease. Does the airline check if the dog can do this ?
I’m so sorry! I’m sure he lived a long and happy life. I know how awful it is to lose a dog, you are in my thoughts and prayers!
Last January 2009 my mom was given a Brug by her sister. Her name was LuLu. So as a puppy we let her keep her name, LuLu. She is the greatest and most inteligent dog that I have ever known, so far. She is loving and playful. Also, she has a keen sence to love and be protective of other people by just sitting close to them. LuLu is very spoiled rotten! She is a very happy young dog. I say again, very smart dog breed. She has showed me how to play fetch. LuLu will bring a toy to me when she wants to ply. If I am busy then, she rubs the toy against my leg or foot. She also, sqeeks the noise making toys to get my attention until I play with her. She will also, stand in front of me and throw her toy as if to play fetch and catch it plus, repeat this over and over until I get the hint to play fetch by throwing her toy down the hall so she can run and fetch it back to me. She has taught me how to play her games of fetch the way she likes it done. I must admit I deeply love LuLu and see that my Fien,cee will want me to buy her a Brug from a breeder after Elena and I are married. I love LuLu. She is a great dog and full of love. She knows how to smile at me, wag her tail just right and move her ears just right to con me out of what ever kind of meat that I am eating in her view. Brugs are great dogs full of love and intelligence. Possibly smarter than most of my friends that are human.
Thanks for allowing me to add my two cents worth of Brug experiance.

hi please some one can help me oh tell me how I can get a free pug I read the somenthing when is free coming with problems now I have scare please someone can help in tell me what I can do thank you so much
So sad to hear about this….
I’m so sorry for your loss. Thanks so much for all that you put into this site. I can’t imagine how hard this is for you.
Are you serious how can all of you expect to get a free pug. One of the most popular selling and expensive dogs out. If you can’t pay $300 to $800 for a pug how will you be able to give them the care they need? If you can’t afford that then you definately can’t afford to have one. If a pug has hip dysplasia and the surgery costs $2000 then that poor pug will be neglected and will probably end up in a shelter. Pugs are KNOWN for respiratory problems, hip problems, eye problems, stuff that is NOT FREE to fix. So if you can’t buy one don’t look for one since pugs need to be cared for by a vet and could be the most expensive animal ever. If you want something FREE that just looks good in your house get a hamster!
Hope you had a great Mardi Gras! Who Dat?
I love the matching pjs
.
What a wonderful picture. <3 the matching PJs too.. maybe Gizmo needs a pair too
i am very sorry for your loss.i discovered your site almost 2 years ago and gadget and gizmo has always been a great couple
very sad for gadget
I am the owner of Louis on Oskar, the two Brugs on the hybrid dog website. http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/brug.htm I coined the phrase “Brug” over 14 years ago when I got Louis from a breeder who’s Brussels female was accidentally impregnated by one of her show Pugs. She was going to have the puppies aborted, but her daughter came to the rescue and took in the mom and found homes for the puppies. At that time, I had never heard of a Brussels Griffon. Louis was the love of our lives. He had the best disposition of any dog I’ve ever owned. I say ‘was’ because we had to put our beloved Louis to sleep 5 days ago. My husband and I are devastated. He was our baby, and we miss him so much. He was the sweetest, smartest dog, so much so that I searched for 10 years for another Brug. I finally found Oskar 4 years ago, and he is also such a wonderful dog with the greatest personality. He very much has the “velcro Brussels” gene. These dogs are amazing , and I would never own any other. RIP Louis. I miss you so much.
I would like a baby pug named Martha Marshall.
I am so sorry to hear about Gadget. I am behind on my blog reading, and just learned about your loss! I love your blog and will miss him, too!
i will like to get a pug i can pay for it
please could u send me a chart of pug puppies developing from conception thankyou kind regards p oneill
[...] picture, and most of the time, it was Gadget. One of those pictures is today’s picture in the Cute Overload 2010 Page-A-Day Calendar. We miss you [...]
We miss Gadget too.
This picture and the bib is one of my favorite pictures of Gadget. I miss him very much too.
Watch out Gizmo, you’s gonna be wearing a tutu soon!
I think by the look on Gizmo’s face. He knows his day is coming soon!
I need a pug and is it possible for free
I agree! Gizmo isn’t foolish, he knows its only a matter of time. And don’t forget, this fascination with dress-up will only continue as she gets older! Unfortunately, Chanel and D&G are much more expensive than fairy wings…
very nice
its good for people who own pets for fist time like us for guidance

Anyone want a free pug?
PAY ATTENTION:
IF YOU CANNOT AFFORD TO BUY A PUG, YOU CANNOT AFFORD TO TAKE CARE OF A PUG!!!!
My pug is 4 years old and i have spent OVER $12,000 on him so far on upkeep.
PUGS ARE HIGH MAINTENANCE AND EXPENSIVE EVEN IF THEY ARE WELL-BRED!!! They are time consuming and costly. I love my pug immensely, but you have to be ready for the financial and emotional commitment!
I am posting this in all sincerity to anyone wanting a pug. Know what you are getting into.!!
If you want a free pug because you can’t afford to buy one, trust me you cannot afford to keep one.
Has anybody heard of a place near Sherbrooke Quebec (Ascot Corners) called “Les Chiens du O Ranch” ? I’m wondering if they are a puppy mill!
We bought our Pug pup from their and she checked out well with our vet., but he looked at her papers and said she probably came from a puppy mill. Now these people (family business) sell they’re pups on line and deliver all over Canada. When we picked up our pup (to check out the place) we asked to see the parents and they brought them out one at a time, the male pug was really nervous and the female had only one eye
do to an accident they said and would not explain any further? They sell multiple breeds of small dogs and hybrids. I have tried to reach CKC to no avail.
If anyone knows of this being a puppy mill how can we stop this from continuing?????
I am so sorry for your loss – I had no idea this happened and am writing this with honest tears in my eyes! Watching your pugs has brought me much joy, as I used to have pugs but my busy life no longer gives me time to devote to the little guys.
will your rud if its not free than why you on this page that just messing with people
I too have a fwn pug. I have had her since she was 6 weeks old and now she is 9 yo. It seems to me that her problem with hair shedding has gotten worst. It is so bad I have thought about finding her a new hom but when it came down to it I couldn’t. So now I am trying to find ways to atleast make this problem as minimum as possible. I have a 2 yo son that keeps me busy too. So you think the grooming has lessened the shedding problem?
Ditto on the people who didn’t read this post and are saying the want a free pug. Duh!
When I was looking for a pug, I posted ads on various Craig’s Lists in different cities as I couldn’t find one in my hometown (at the time). I received an email from someone in Portland that said ‘I can get you one for $250′. It was like WTF. Sounds like he was going to steal it out of someone’s yard. I am sorry to read about those that have lost or had their pugs stolen. We are very careful with Magda and never let out of sight as we are afraid someone would steal her though we feel like we should have a disclaimer on her – subluxated patella, gassy, finicky, doesn’t obey, house trained 95% of the time, sheds a lot, eats her own poo, jumps on everyone, always underfoot etc. Pugs are not inexpensive dogs and I thought about getting one for 5 years before I did. I talked to many owners at Pug Day and had a real feel for the breed before I got one. Even when I did tons of research and went to a breeder that I thought was reputable, she was so small that our vet thought she was going to die & has subluxated patellas. There was no way were going to return her (I even have a subluxated patella). Pugs require RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH.
we’re sorry for your loss, it’s hard and sad, we can’t stop crying….but just know gadget is looking down on your family and smiling that he had such a great life.
we miss you gadget, may you rest in peace.
love mylo and nia
I adopted a 7 year old pug from the pug rescue in Colorado. My bully was getting old and I wanted a companion for the bully. So Max came into our lives and he quickly put the bully in her place! They are like brother and sister and the bully looks out for Max.
Do a pug AND yourself a favor, adopt a pug from a local pug rescue. You’ll be glad you did. I wouldn’t trade it for the world.
I just found some funny things about pugs in http://www.bobsyourblog.com
Hello. I got mine from a close family to us who, from one day to another, had their pug population increased by 300%. Their pug couple were parents and they couldn’t afford breeding 7 pugs. So the pug puppies were loved and cared since day 1. I do not know how pug puppies are treated by breeders, but i honestly don’t like the idea of estimulating their use as money machines. Therefore, i would kindly ask all the people asking for a free pug and others considering pugs, please look for them a rescue center. Please look around and receive a pug in need. They are extremly loyal and beautiful, they would steal your heart in a minute, no matter if they are in a rescue center or the fanciest breeding center.
my little peachy girl is about a year old and she sheds like crazy…she is fawn colored and i have green carpet…no matter how much i vacuum it doesnt help…the hair is weaved in….funny thing is her bed has no hair a t all…she spends at least an hour a day licking her bed clean. i wish she would do the couch…the carpet…my clothes.. i am going to get her some t shirts.
Waw! It is very fantastic. So I am very happy.
This very advantageous for me and it is a source of knowledge for us.
it is very fine pugs.

Well, our pug has been giving us lots of problems. She pees and poops in the whole apartment, she chews on everything she fines, she has destroyed very precious jewelry and accessories, and she digs and jumps in the trash to pull out whatever she can such as pads, qtips, dental floss which she then hides under the bed.
We are giving her away.
it’s very sad. I’m also crying. I often visit your website cos I have pug and I love yours as well. I haven’t updated for months and this is a shocking news for me.
so sorry. I don’t know what to say. Hope you and your family can pass it.
I adopted my fawn pug from the pound. I knew I wanted a pug & the only one they had was very sick & about to be put to sleep because he was old, blind & nobody wanted him. I fostered him for a month & a half before I decided I could handle all of his issues. I named him Earl & I love him so very much. He is so kind & gentle. I was going through a divorce & needed a friend. He was sick & needed a friend…& now we have eachother. He’s blind & to see him light up when he know I’m home is the best feeling in the world. I have older teenages in the house but Earl still manages to find me no matter where I am in our house. Even with his disability he stay close by my side.
Now onto the shedding. OMG. Earl shed so bad I actually have clothes that I change into. Just so I can hug on him & cuddle. I thought about having him shaved for over a year. Well, we took the plunge today & I must say he looks really go. He feels like crushed velvet. I look at him & think of that line Eddie Murphy gives as an old Jewish man in Coming to American “What is that, velvet”
I plan to buy him a coat in the winter. It doesn’t snow down here but I want to make sure he stays warm.
What a wonderful picture! I think it is great how young children bond with their pets.
What a lucky pug to have two beautiful little girls to love! What lucky little girls to have a beautiful pug to love! I know Gadget is watching over them all.

I shaved my pug & it is the best thing i have ever done
I have 2 pugs..my female (Selina) is 7 months and my male (Charlie) is 4 months. They are great for the most part. But the most irritating thing is the jealousy factor. When one dog has something, the other just has to have it…common with any pairs (people or animals), but that jealousy leads to excessive fighting, which leads to one of them yelping. I talked to my vet and she said that it’s normal, but to me it seems pretty painful. I always end up seperating them for a few minutes until things calm down. I could just as very well be my fault because I won’t get them neutered…
I have a male pug 9 months old (Gizmo) his biggest problem is eating other animals poo the cats and dogs even his own. he will wipe his face in it until all his face is covered. he has made a habit recenly of knocking the cat pans over almost every day. its getting tiring. i love him but i wish thees is somthing can do. scolding hi doesnt seem to work, he just gets sad and uspet.

I have a black pug who sheds allot. Unfortunately Pug lovers have to deal with it. I do have a Dyson animal which waorks good on carpet and my wood floor. The best thing I have found is my lint roller! My pug actually likes the roller as it rolls across his spine. It is kind of like a massage he even jumps on a stoll waiting for me to start when I get the roller out. I do this once a morning and it realy seams to reduce the amount of fur.
I have a three year old Pug. He is the best little boy ever. He goes swimming in the pool and takes walks in the field. Oh, did I mention he loves to eat. We have to put his food on a cookie sheet so that he doesn’t eat too fast. He used to eat so fast he would back up and fall over.
First-generation hybrids are not really mutts or mongrels. They are like purebreds in that their traits are relatively predictable, but they are like mutts in that they don’t “breed true.” So for example all pug hybrids (1st generation offspring from a purebred pug and a purebred something else) have at least somewhat curled tails, but if you cross two pug hybrids 1/4 of the second generation will have non-curly tails. No first-generation puggles strongly display the characteristic beagle coat markings but about 1/4 of second gen puggles do.
in holland is thier probably a place to leave your pug if you go on holiday? when i get older i want one but my mom has an alerjie. are pugs dangerous? are they hard to care for when you are 15? please answer
Hi,
I have a 3 year old pug and purchased a brush like the furminator to try to get rid of some of the shedding. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but it doesn’t work, the hair that it removes is the under-coat and not the top coat which is the fur that seems to somehow organically weave itself into everything. I have found that a rubber-nubby brush seems to work best, I do it outside as the fur goes flying, I do this every-other day and it really seems to help.
I have a 3 year old female pug that is having trouble passing urine, vomiting and is off her food and water since about 3 AM today. Is there something I can give her homeopathically? I can’t afford a vet right now but will take her if her condition worsens.
I hope you aren’t paying too much for your AKC reg. pug, because you breeder is lying. The only colors of pure-bred pug recognized by the AKC are fawn and black.
Pugs are so adorable! Its no wonder why children love them so much. These are probably the nicest dog breed you’ll ever own. Anyone who meets mine just loves her to death.
