Is a Puggle Right For You?

If you are considering purchasing a Puggle, you are undoubtedly researching this hybrid breed and learning all you can about this type of dog and what types of pets they make.

In the end, you will have to make your decision based not on the cuteness of Puggles, although they are insanely cute, or on their fashionable status, although they are popular hybrids. Ultimately, your decision will focus on whether this dog would fit in well with your family. To make that decision, you will need to ask yourself four important questions and assess the suitability of this breed based on your answers to those questions.

First, you have to ask yourself if you want a purebred dog. If roles are important to you and you want a dog with an AKC pedigree, then a Puggle may not be the best choice, because these dogs are a hybrid, rather than a recognized AKC breed. Many people love hybrid dogs. This is an area where your personal preferences will make a big difference.

Second, you will want to think about your lifestyle. Do you have the energy for an energetic dog that will have a bright, vibrant personality and will live life in style? If you are expecting a calm, calm and gentle dog with a passion to sleep on the couch while reading a book, then a pug, the father of the Puggle, might be a better option. But if you want a fun-loving dog that becomes an exciting and excitable part of your life, the Puggle could be a great choice.

Third, you will need to ask yourself what kind of dog you want, in terms of personality. Some dogs are relaxed and calm, and some are not. Pugs, for example, are known as silent companion dogs. Beagles are more energetic. When you adopt a Puggle, you are adopting an energy ball that tends to be stubborn at times, needs a lot of attention and discipline in training, and will definitely have a ‘personality’, for the good and the bad of that.

Fourth, think about what you want a dog for. If you expect a beagle mix to go hunting and hiking with you, you will probably find that the Puggle is not cut out to be a hunting / outdoor dog. They have very short legs and, although they have longer noses than Pugs, they simply do not breathe as well as they could. On the other hand, if you want a dog to play with, cuddle with in small doses, and have as an active, important, and fun-loving part of your family, a Puggle could be a great option.

Finally, you must ask yourself why you want a designer dog and why you want a Puggle. If your main reason for loving this type of dog is that they are “so cute,” it would be wise to think about whether a Puggle is the right choice. If, on the other hand, you’ve done your research and know a lot about them, understand their personalities and exactly what you’re getting, and want one, you should definitely consider a Puggle.

Puggles are great dogs. They are not for everyone, but if you have made a decision after a good research on this type of dog, you will be very happy with your new pet.
