shedder. Daily brushing outside will help to keep the hair
down in your house.
Health
It
is unfortunate that this dog has been bred to almost distorted
proportions. This causes many health problems, the worst being
breathing. If it is hot or muggy outside, you will probably
need to keep your pug indoors. The breed is at risk of heat
stroke in the hot weather. Due to the pug's protruding eyes,
always protect his eyes in wind and near other potential eye
hazards. Due to breathing difficulties, your pug may also be
at risk when being anesthetized.
