People on social media insult you for having pugs, I have one too, but despite their health issues they have the funniest and cuddliest personalities. Even my vet friend says so.
Luckily she has no problem breathing, however, she does overheat quickly, so a cooling vest is required when it’s warm outside.
Her eyes are another issue, her lower eyelids are pushing on her eyes, so you have to lubricate them multiple times a day.
I would never advocate for people to breed pugs, they are amazing dogs if you want something that will be glued to you for the next 10 years or more, but the health issues are heart breaking.
My pug is on his very last legs, and I plan to have a come to Jesus with my ex about euthanasia this week (he was on vacation last week and so I just powered through so as to not ruin it, but is back today). He has diabetes, is blind, has tracheal stenosis, atopic dermatitis, also has a dry eye, has fatty lipomas, and dementia now, and seems very unaware of everything around him. I try to get him to sleep as much as possible, when he’s awake he coughs and roams and pants and it’s terrible. I’ve had a very long week.
But damn he was a funny dog even just a couple of years ago, and so affectionate. He used to scream in joy driving all the way to the dog park, and people in there could hear him blocks away. He could knock over any big dog he wanted, and he would eat the wildest things. I’ll miss him so much, I already do.
