The Pug is in the Toy group, with the Maltese and Havanese which I've already Learned, Don't Returned, and the Chinese Crested. If you're interested in a Learn, Don't Return of the Chinese Crested or any dog breed, leave it in the comments! Near the end of this Learn, Don't Return, I'll put a link up here for the Maltese and the Havanese - they are small but interesting dog breeds!
The Pug originates from Chinese emperors during the Warring States Period which was 400 BC. And while property of the emperors during this violent period Pugs had their own guards to protect them, when they were known as the Foo Dog, which means happy or prosperity in Mandarin. Follow Me Now: The Dutch have been building ships since prehistoric times, and they really hit their stride when they built ships for the Dutch East India Trading Company- the first multinational trading company, which started on March 20th, 1602.
And I'm sure it's no coincidence that in that same century, the first Pugs entered Europe, courtesy of the Dutch traders. The Pug was probably traded to England royalty from Dutch traders near the end of the 17th century; and this Pug entered America also during violent times - sometime around the Civil War in 1861 to 1865 or possibly a little after. The Pug dog breed gets their name from 3 possible sources. I'll give you the options and you can decide, then I'll give you my opinion at the end too, and we'll see if we agree, sound good? Option 1: The Marmoset monkey, which apparently was a popular pet during the 18th century, went by "pug monkey" and if I'm being honest, I get it, their faces could be considered similar looking; but I'm just not 100% on-board.
Option 2: According to the Oxford Dictionary - Pug means "a dog of a dwarf breed like a bulldog with a broad flat nose and deeply wrinkled face". I know what your thinking because I thought the same thing; so what do they call the Pug in England? Right?! Well, in England they call the Pug the Dutch Mastiff! Very interesting! I like the sounds of this one, but let's check out the 3rd option! Option 3: "Pugge" was a term of endearment, like "my cute little Pugge" and it was shortened to Pug. I know around here, in my home, everything ends with "e" to show love, and we do love our dogs, but this is in reverse, from Pugge to Pug, so I'm not 100% positive. So, what do you think? I'm going with all 3 because it sounds like the term Pug was a popular term in the 16th and 17th centuries, it's probably a combination of all 3. It started as 1 thing and morphed into additional meanings. Would your wife or husband love it if you called them - your pug? comment below. The Pug is the largest dog breed in the Toy Group and weights a small 14-18 pounds and you don't want a fat Pug because they already have a brachycephalic head that can obstruct breathing, so feed a small amount of premium pet food from a 1-quart dog bowl. And while Pugs are not hypoallergenic and do shed year round, you can breathe easy because Pugs don't suffer from any other major health issues. The Pug's eyes will not pop out, and your eyes won't pop out over their veterinarian bills, but consider getting pet health insurance. The Pug is only 10-13 inches tall and in 2023 the Pug ranks 36th in dog breed popularity. The Pug has a wonderful personality that is loving, charming, and mischievous, but a Pug pet parent shouldn't be mischievous and consider adopting an older Pug since Pugs can live to be 13-15 years old. Pugs have a little bit of a protective instinct because we know Napoleon Bonaparte was bit by Josephine's dog, Fortune. And they saved the Dutch Prince of the House of Orange from an Assassins attack in 1572. But the Pugs' intelligence, quick wit, and funny facial expressions are why "Frank" is the perfect dog for the Men in Black movie series.
