Puggles are for cuddles. The hot designer dog of the decade, a Puggle (also referred to as the
mini-mastiff) is a mix between a purebred pug and a purebred beagle. And with their cute, curled
tail, stout body and wrinkled forehead, it's no wonder they are so popular. Several movie stars
find them irresistible. Big-name Puggle owners include Uma Thurman, Jake Gyllenhaal, Sylvester
Stallone, Julianne Moore and James Gandolfini.
The Puggle's nose is longer than a pug's, so a Puggle doesn't have the breathing problems associated
with a pug. A Puggle is the ideal pet for an active family. He loves to run with the kids, and at 14
- 24 pounds is also very happy sitting calmly in your lap.
The Puggle's short hair is usually black, beige, or silver. They do shed, but not much. Puggles are
energetic, without being hyper or yappy, and may not have the tendency to howl or bark like a beagle.
However, they probably will bark once or twice whenever someone comes to the door. This is standard
with many dogs, to alert you that someone is in pack territory, and to alert the visitor that this
territory is occupied.
Puggles require a lot of activity and attention, just as the breeds they are derived from. Children
or frequent play times and outings help keep the Puggle occupied. Do not get a Puggle if your dog is
to be left alone for long periods of time or in a cage all day while you are at work.
