🐾Breed Spotlight: Pugs!🐾
What's small, squishy, and full of energy? It's a pug! From their wrinkly faces to their hilarious vocals, pugs are sure to keep you entertained! Keep reading to learn more about this loveable breed!
⛩They're Ancient! The pug breed was first noted in 400 BC, making them one of the oldest known dog breeds! They lived with the Tibetan Buddhist monasteries and it is believed they were bred specifically for lounging on the laps of Chinese emperors. Can you imagine a pug in a little monk robe?!
👴🏻Wrinkles with Meaning! The Chinese purposefully bred pugs to have their signature, wrinkly faces, in an attempt to replicate the Chinese symbol for the word "prince." We think every pug deserves to feel like royalty!
👥How Many in a Group? When you have a group of geese, you have a flock. A group of sheep, a herd. When you have a group of pugs, it's called a grumble! Could this be due to the adorable sounds they make?
📣That's Our Motto! The pug has become so popular, the entire breed has adopted the motto of "Multum in Parvo" which means "A lot in a little" in Latin. Anyone who has ever come across one of these dogs knows that is very fitting!
We think all pugs are special but our SuperPugs are our favorites! Do you have a pug you love? Drop their photo below so we can all see their adorable faces! The more wrinkles, the better!
