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!

    Oh my gosh look at those muscles! Gorgeous! Hugs our pugs! I’d probably randomly hug other people’s pugs as well! They cower once their held so I can totally sneak a love in 😉

    I grew up with dogs, rotweillers, bulldogs, the occasional shi-tuz… no dog has demanded as much of my attention as my pug. I love him, and I think that I will always have pugs, but there is a reason that so many pugs are surrendered to rescue organizations. They are not for everyone. My Morty is a bit of a local celebrity. I have a public job and he works with me most days. So our neighbors think that every pug is going to be as easy as Morty seems… I just like to give them an honest picture of what pug life really looks like.

    I never was animal person. (I didn’t dislike animals and definately despised anyone being cruel to an animal. I just never had any.) Then I “married” into a pug family, including one with special needs. Last week, at my behest, be added a third, also with special needs. Pugs have added a new meaning to my life.
