"My favorite day? Family, food, fun, repeat!"
Puggles bring together the silliness of a Pug with the loving devotion of a Beagle. These pups can be tough to predict, but at their best, they’re low-maintenance, family-friendly companions that want nothing more than to be by your side.
Puggles can be a wild card because of their mixed genes. They can be big barkers if they take after their Beagle parents or clownish if the Pug side is stronger. Both breeds tend to be kind, playful, social, and loving, but they’re known to have a stubborn streak. Puggles love treats, though, so the more praise and positive reinforcement you can give them, the faster they will learn. They’re little piglets too, so don’t expect the treats to last long.
Puggles are one of the most low-maintenance breeds around when it comes to grooming and maintenance. They have short fur that varies in color and is fairly easy to maintain. Both Beagles and Pugs shed a lot, though, so keep a brush handy at all times to keep their hair under control.
Puggles love being part of the family, and they get along great with kids, cats, and other dogs. They should be watched around small children to make sure the kids are not too rough. The Puggle's size and low-key lifestyle make them perfect for apartment living. They need to live inside with the family, though, and may be prone to barking and howling if their Beagle side is strong.
Puggles have average energy levels, so they’re content with taking a nice walk or having playtime in the yard each day. However, both Pugs and Beagles have hearty appetites, so it’s important to keep them active enough to burn off all those calories and avoid putting on too much weight.
