Somebody told me the other day they had no idea what a pug was, hence this adorable breed of dog has to be my next description.
General:
One of the lesser known dogs in the UK, this breed gained a significant rise in popularity following the pug who starred alongside Will Smith in Men In Black.

Height: 10 – 11 inches fully grown
Weight: 14 - 18 lbs

Colour:

If you’ve never bred a dog before, it might be a good idea to talk to a local dog breeder first, preferably of your own dog breed. It’s not something to be taken on lightly.
As a dog breeder in the past, I’ve had several families buying bitches with the intention to breed and a few who bought bitches and nervously questioned if the myth is correct that a bitch should have at least one litter in her lifetime. Their reasons for wanting to breed have varied, but you can imagine the number one reason.
