Pug Origin

The Pug is of Chinese origin. They were prized possessions of the Emperors of China and lived in a most luxurious atmosphere. The Dutch traders brought the Pugs from the east to Holland and to England. The more refined Pug that we know today must be credited to the English. This happy little dog was enjoyed by many Monarchs of Europe and to this day is a favorite with royalty and discerning people all over the world. The American Kennel Club first recognized the breed in 1885. The Pug Dog Club of America was founded in 1931 and recognized by the AKC that same year.

First Boat Trip

Over the summer we rented a boat and brought the puppies with us. They loved it! We took them to the dog beaches ever since they were puppies that way they could get used to the water. Everyone that we met told us that pugs can't swim but our pugs prove them all wrong. They were skeptical at first but now when we take them to the dog beach they immediately run into the water. It was hard keeping them on the boat especially when we went swimming but they sun bathed and slept a lot. I can't wait to bring them on the boat again!
