There's no doubt about it; Pugs are an easy dog breed to love. Now only that, but they are incredible at showing their owners and everyone else how much love they have to give in return.

If you're considering getting another Pug or are thinking about becoming a first time Pug owner, you may or may not know that Pugs enjoy being the center of attention. In other words — they are the life of the party.

These small dogs have a big personality, and when it comes to greeting larger dogs, a size difference does not phase them. They likely will just want to play or let the bigger dog know they're in charge! Haha!

This playful and smart breed takes a lot of responsibility and if we're honest, can be a lot of work. Anxiety may be an issue for your furry Pug friend and to manage it naturally they would love it if you're around all of the time, but if that's not possible do your best to give them a lot of love and attention when you're there by their side.

If you decide to bring a Pug into your family, you better be ready to laugh a lot! Expect some antics as a Pug loves being the center of attention. But with laughter comes responsibility, which is why there are some realities you must accept about your Pug.

If you don't have a Pug why wait? They are the perfect fur children and will become best friends with your human children too.

After the break, we will shed some light on some important factors you need to accept about your Pug. Don't allow these factors to scare you away from owning a Pug, however. A Pug is worthy of love because your Pug will give you just as much love (if not more) in return!

    Our love began many years ago with a little fellow named Mugsy ~ many pug rescues later we love them ~ and yes they can lick their nose like this and “toot” at the same time _ look at you like “don;t you just love me?” Answer is YES!! So miss each one who is gone from our arms – they are still in our hearts and bring tears to our eyes ~~ if we did not believe that one day Heaven would be “that Bridge” we cross and they will be there waiting, then we would not have our faith that God is there!

    I had two Pugs one for 9 years the other for 13 years. Loved them both so much & they are such a comfort & a lot of fun to have around. Was so sad when I had to put my Abby to sleep last Nov. as it broke my heart.

    1. He is so attached he has separation anxiety 2. He does not like other dogs 3. I wake up daily to a body aches of sleeping around him 6. He refuses to go in the snow 8. I had an eye injury due to him scratching it (month later still will bother me at times) 9-10. We have daily conversations on what he is allowed to do/have. (He is a chug)
