Pugs are known for their friendly and affectionate personalities. They are also very playful and enjoy spending time with their family. Pugs are generally good with children and other pets. However, they can be territorial and may not do well with other dogs of the same sex.

Pugs are prone to obesity, so it is important to feed them a healthy diet. A pug's diet should be high in protein and low in carbohydrates. It is also important to avoid feeding your pug table scraps or other unhealthy foods.

Pugs are social animals and need regular interaction with their family. They should be taken for walks or runs every day and given plenty of opportunities to play. Pugs also enjoy being petted and cuddled.
