| WOOF and welcome to Lucky Pug Farm, the place where pugs rule! We are three
Pugs from Maryland who share Lucky Pug Farm with one nifty kid, an assortment
of foster Pugs, and sometimes visiting friends and family. Allow
us to introduce ourselves. |

The Pug is a small breed of dog with a wrinkly, short muzzled face . The
word "pug" may have come from the Old English pugg or "puge",
which were affectionate terms for a playful little devil or monkey. Pug
puppies are often called puglets.[3] The breed is often summarized as multum
in parvo ("much in little"), describing the Pug's remarkable
personality despite its small size. |
| PUDGIE: I came to live at Lucky Pug Farm when I was 8 months old. My former
owners didn't want me when their vet discovered I have hip dysplasia. Now
I'm 3, my hips are fine, and my Pigmentary Keratitis was cured by surgery
and cyclosporine. I'm the friendliest Lucky Pug, everybody loves me. My
hobbies are eating, snorting, digging, and bulldozing Sidney. That's why
they call me "Pugzilla." I also have the biggest nose roll on
the planet, which my Mommy calls "The Root of All Evil" and is
why my non-Pug brother calls me PEW. |

GROVER: I'm Grover, the littlest Lucky Pug and I'm a rescue too. I started
out as a foster but I'm irresistible so now I'm permanent. Like many small
dogs, I have a Napoleon Complex and occasionally throw my weight (all 13.5
pounds) around for no apparent reason. My favorite pastimes are tractor
pulling, hangin' out under highchairs, and mutilating fleece toys. I like
to sleep on my Mommy's pillow and snore directly into her ear. |
| While most Pugs appearing in eighteenth century prints tended to be long
and lean, modern breed preferences are for a square, cobby body, a compact
form, a deep chest, and well-developed muscle.. Breeding preference goes
to "button" Pugs. The legs are very strong, straight, of moderate
length, and are set well under. The shoulders are moderately laid back.
The pasterns are strong, neither steep nor down. The feet are neither so
long as the foot of the hare, nor so round as that of the cat; well split-up
toes, and the nails black. Dewclaws are generally removed. The lower teeth
normally protrude further than their upper, meeting in an under-bite.
Have fun! THE LUCKY PUG FARMERS |
