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 Bernedoodle
Bernedoodles are Bernese Mountain Dog–Poodle crosses, ranging from mini to large. They’re sturdy, affectionate, people‑oriented dogs with wavy or curly, low‑shedding coats needing regular grooming. Intelligent yet slow to mature, they suit active homes that avoid long periods of solitude.
