You want a pug. You've wanted one for years. You hopefully have done some research and think this is the breed for you.
Here's what it's really like to live with a pug, illustrated by the one and only Gemma Gené who draws about her pug Mochi. It's hilarious and adorable, yet it captures the essence.
Check it out below! …and if you already live with a pug (or pugs), see if you can relate! LOL
#1: They want to be with you. ALL THE TIME.
Have you ever heard parents with kids say that they never get to go to the bathroom by themselves anymore? Well, it's pretty much the same thing with a pug!
They tend to be pretty attached, and will follow you around the house everywhere you go. They will be at your feet when you're at your standing desk, curled up in your lap when you're on the couch, and sitting a foot behind you when you're at your computer desk!
If you want a dog that stays off the furniture or sleeps on the floor rather than your bed, you may have a bit of a challenge with a pug. And you may have to deal with a good amount of separation anxiety.
If you're cool with a dog that thinks he's attached to you with velcro… then a pug is a good breed for you!

The only thing my pug barks at is the mailman and in his sleep once in a while.

Another important point is that they shed 24/7 worse than a cat. All the others are dead on!

Yes mine gets angry if I close the bathroom door! Lol. Also the snoring is very loud but comforting.

A few others- mine barks at animals on tv all the time, the snore is LOUD but cute, the wheezing can be nerve wracking when their little nose does a reverse sneeze, and the 24/7 shedding. But the sweetest breed you will ever meet. Little clowns.

Mine barks at anyone who dares to walk by our yard. Squirrels and birds may not land in her space without facing her wrath.

And snotting (when they rapidly exhale in your face, causing a fine mist to be sprayed…usually into your open mouth)
