Summary
About Pug
Small, sturdy companion dog with wrinkled face, curled tail and expressive eyes, usually 6–8 kg and suited to city homes. Affectionate, people focused and playful, needs moderate gentle exercise, close family contact, careful weight control and extra management in hot weather due to its short nose.
About Beagle
The Beagle is a small, sturdy scent hound with a short, shedding coat and a famous baying voice. Cheerful and curious, it’s usually friendly with children and other dogs. It needs daily exercise, mental stimulation, secure fencing, and weight control, but grooming is simple.
