Getting to know what kind of a dog a Puggle is, is the first step towards buying a Puggle as a pet. This would provide you with a whole new outlook on how to deal with your new puppy and what things you need to look out for when your small puppy grows up into a big Puggle dog.

The first and the foremost thing that should be noted is that a mature Puggle is almost of the same height as a Puggle puppy, i.e. 13-15 inches in height and about 14-20 pounds in weight. This means that you can easily keep your fully grown Puggle dog in our lap just like you use to keep him in your lap when he was a small puppy (unless of course it is in a mood to play and refuses to sit in your lap!)

A Puggle is basically a cross between Beagle and a Puggle dog. A true purebred Puggle puppy needs to be bred from a purebred Beagle mother and a pure bred Pug father. The result of such a cross breeding is a Puggle that can features of both the Beagle mother and the Pug father.

If you are bored by monotonicity in the color of dogs, then you would be happy to find out that a Puggle puppy comes in various different colors such as tan color, beige, silver, black and sometimes even a fawn and a white spotted mix. The hair on your new Puggle puppy would generally be short and smooth and would require very little grooming.

Puggles also have the wrinkled face and droopy ears characteristics that their parents showcase and also have a tendency to be stocky and short, with a curly wiggly tail. A Puggle is a pet that strives on love and it requires more time spent on love and affection than on grooming.

A Puggle puppy is also one small bundle of energy and loves nothing better than to play, so they make great family pets especially if there are young children around for them to play with. Puggles can be great social animals if introduced to the concept at an early age, but are otherwise friendly anyway.

A Puggle puppy has a good temperament but that does not mean that they cannot be used as guard dogs, once they are adequately trained and nurtured for this task. Although a Puggle would not bark like a beagle, it would surely give you a warning bark if it sees any stranger wandering near your house.

Your Puggle puppy, besides being energetic and mischief prone, will also be intelligent and trainable. They have good listening skills and they will become very loyal to their masters.

The best traits about your Puggle puppy however, all lies in his adorable features. The wrinkled-up appearance and the droopy ears make your Puggle puppy a truly captivating puppy and not one to be overlooked by anyone.
