The pug is a breed of dog distinguished by a wrinkly, short-muzzled face and curled tail. The breed has a fine, glossy
coat that comes in a variety of colours, most often light brown or black, and a compact, square body with well-developed
muscles.
Pugs are known for being sociable and gentle companion dogs. The American Kennel Club describes the breed's
personality as "even-tempered and charming". Pugs remain popular into the twenty-first century, with some famous
celebrity owners. A pug was judged Best in Show at the World Dog Show in 2004.
