The pug is a toy dog with a wrinkly, short-muzzled face, and curled tail. The breed has a fine,
glossy coat that comes in a variety of colors, and a compact square body with well-developed
muscle. They have been described as multum in parvo ("much in little"), referring to the pug's
personality and small size. Known in ancient China as lo-sze, they may have been responsible for
the English Bulldog, the modern Pekingese and King Charles spaniel. They have Chinese origins,
but were popularized in Western Europe by the House of Orange of the Netherlands and the House of
Stuart of England, Ireland and Scotland.
They can suffer from a variety of health issues, including overheating, obesity, pharyngeal
reflex and two fatal conditions which are necrotizing meningoencephalitis and hemivertebrae. In
addition, care must be taken by their owner to clean their ears, and the folds of skin on their
face.
