Puggle information & Advice
Puggle
Information - What is a Puggle?
A
Puggle is a mix of two breeds - the male Pug and the female Beagle.
This very cute hybrid appeared approximately seven years ago when it
was bred by a breeder in New York, and it wasn't long before everyone
was looking for a Puggle.
Appearance...
The coat is short
haired and comes in a variety of different colors including
black, white or even tri-colored. However, the most common
color is fawn - like you can see in the picture above. The black mask
that you can see is caused by the 'Pug' genes. If you suffer from an
allergy then this dog may not be the best as they are prone to shedding
and are not hyper allergenic.
Weight...
The weight of this dog
can vary from dog to dog but they normally grow from anywhere between
15 up to 25 pounds. They grow up to a height at the shoulders to about
13 - 15 inches.
Temperament
& Character...
The temperament of
this dog is actually very good. They are fine with children and get
along with other pets that you may have in the House. They are very
intelligent and have a sweet nature. They love to be sociable
around the family and are very affectionate - they also love
to lay on your lap. They are also a very active dog and very much enjoy
their walks.
Daily exercise is very
important as it is a good way for you to bond and strengthen your
relationship as well as give your pooch the exercise they
need.
Barking...
The Puggle can bark
and even howl as all dogs can at some point (this is down to the Beagle
genes). As long as you start to reinforce positive behavior and ignore
negative behavior you will be fine.
Training...
Puggles are very easy
to train, mainly because they are very intelligent. You should start
training your dog as early as possible - start with the basic commands
like sit and fetch and go from there. House training is also relatively
easy, again because they are intelligent and very keen to please their
owners.
Lifespan...
They can live up to 15
years of age - but a rough estimate would be a between 10 - 15 years of
age.
