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 Cavapoo
The Cavapoo is a small, affectionate Cavalier–Poodle cross (about 6–11 kg) with a soft, often low‑shedding coat needing frequent brushing and regular grooming. Friendly, playful, and trainable, it suits varied homes but dislikes long periods alone and needs daily walks and company.
