Introduction

Pugs are adorable and lovable dogs that have become popular around the world. They are known for their short noses, big eyes, wrinkly faces and squishy bodies. There are many fun facts about pugs that you may not know about them!

1. Pugs are sensitive to heat and cold so they need to be kept in moderate temperatures.

Pugs are very sensitive to heat and cold, so they need to be kept in moderate temperatures. They can get sunburned easily, so they should not be kept outdoors where they will be exposed to direct sunlight. Pugs also cannot tolerate extreme temperatures of either hot or cold; if you’re going to expose them to a high temperature or low temperature (like walking them on a hot summer day or taking them out into the snow), remember that pugs do not have any kind of fur that helps regulate their body temperature!

2. Because of their short nose, pugs have trouble breathing which means lots of snoring.

A pug’s short nose makes it more likely to snore, as well as have trouble breathing. Snoring is caused by an obstruction in the airway, which can be due to excess tissue at the back of the throat or a small windpipe. Pugs are known for having a flat face and short snout, which means they have even less space for their lungs to expand than other breeds do.

The good news is that because you can hear your dog snoring at night (and it might seem like they’re talking), you’ll know if they’re suffering from sleep apnea—a serious condition where their breathing stops while they sleep.

3. Thanks to the folds in their skin, they are susceptible to infection if they don’t get cleaned often.

Pugs are prone to infection because of the folds in their skin. If you don’t bathe your pug, this can lead to all kinds of infections and problems, including eye infections and other skin problems.

You should take special care to clean around your pug’s eyes as well—it’s common for them to get redness or discharge from time to time, which may be a sign of an infection! If you notice anything unusual about your pug’s eyes, take them to see the vet immediately so that they can get treated before any permanent damage is done.

4. They are well known for the way they sleep on their backs with all four legs sticking up in the air.

Pugs are famous for their snoring and the way they sleep on their backs with all four legs sticking up in the air. It’s called the “Pug Pose.”

This position is adorable, but it can also be dangerous for them if they do not have enough support under their body. Many owners have to purchase special beds or pillows that provide more support for this sleeping posture.

5. They were originally owned by emperors in China and Tibet, where they were even guarded by soldiers!

Did you know that the pug is one of the oldest breeds? It’s true! Pugs were originally owned by emperors in China and Tibet, where they were even guarded by soldiers. The pug is one of the oldest breeds, dating back to 200 BC. For over 1500 years, these little guys have been helping humans out with their friendly demeanor and snuggly body!

6. Pugs were brought to Europe by Dutch traders in the 16th century and became popular with Queen Victoria, who had many as pets.

• Pug dogs were brought to Europe by Dutch traders in the 16th century, but their popularity didn’t soar until Queen Victoria had many as pets during her reign as Queen of England from 1837 to 1901.

In fact, it was so common for people to give their pugs a female name that the dog’s name became synonymous with womanhood and femininity.

7. Some say that Napoleon Bonaparte’s pug Josephine was his best friend and comfort during his years of exile on Saint Helena island.

Napoleon Bonaparte had many pugs as pets, but one of them was named Josephine. He loved his pugs so much that he took them with him on his travels and even brought them to the island where he was exiled. His love for this breed is believed to have led to a decrease in their popularity around the time when they had been very popular.

The story goes that Napoleon took Josephine with him when he left France and moved to Saint Helena Island after his abdication from power in 1815. It’s said that she was his comfort during his years of exile away from France.

8. Sir Isaac Newton is said to have invented calculus while distracted by his pet pug, Diamond, who was running around his feet under the table!

Sir Isaac Newton is one of the most famous scientists in history, who made some very important discoveries. He invented calculus, and discovered gravity. But did you know that while he was working on his famous Principia Mathematica, he was distracted by his pet pug?

He was sitting at the table with his assistant when Diamond came running around his feet under the table. This distraction led Sir Isaac Newton to invent calculus!

9. A study from the University of Sydney found that pugs and other short-nosed dogs have a tendency to sneeze, cough, gag and snort all of which can cause them some distress, so please make sure your vet checks that all is good!

• The amount of time spent by a pug in the morning is less than 30 minutes.
