The Pugese is a dog crossbreed bred from a Pug and a Chinese Crested Dog.
Characteristics
The Pugese stands between 10 and 13 inches (25 and 33 centimeters) and weighs between 11 and 15 pounds (5 and 6.9 kilograms).[1] Their lifespan is between 12 and 14 years.[2] Pugese dogs typically have low energy. They are affectionate with their family, but may be cautious of strangers, and may be susceptible to separation anxiety.[1]
Pugese dogs vary greatly in appearance, and dogs from the same litter may not necessarily look similar. They may have various different coat colors and different levels of fur coverage.[1][3] Some Pugese dogs are noted to be "ugly", and a Pugese once won the title of "Britain's ugliest dog".[4][5]
Health
Pugese dogs may inherit health issues from their parent breeds, such as respiratory issues, dental problems, skin allergies, and eye conditions.[6] In particular, they are susceptible to luxating patella, Pug encephalitis, acne, and dry eye syndrome.[1] They may also have brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome due to having short snouts.[3]
