New Puggle Video!

Here's a new video of a sleeping Puggle named Jagger! You can see he's in some kind of doggy dream for a while, then he wakes up. Pretty funny stuff!

Happy New Year from your Puggle Friends!

As a special treat for the New Year, we'd like to introduce you to a very good friend of ours named Hendrix the Puggle. Hendrix is a cute and friendly little puggle pup, but the last time we heard from him, he wasn't feeling very well. Hope you're feeling better, Hendrix!!

Rider the Puggle

Rider is a fantastic Puggle from Pennsylvania! Named after Catasauqua Rough Riders, Rider is a cool looking Puggle because his coat is all black! Very cool!

Rider and his brother Riley "go crazy and wrestle constantly" whenever they get together, and tire out their parents!

Last time we heard from Rider the Puggle, he was being trained to ring a bell whenever he had to go outside. Rider's mom reports that he started ringing the bell on the very first day! Good job buddy!

And thanks for the update!

Home, home on the Mange?

Some breeders have puggles that show a genetic defect which results in a condition known as "puppy strangle."

This condition affects the skin of a puggle, and if left untreated it will spread down the body and eventually "strangle" and kill your puggle!

Fortunately, this condition is very treatable with antibiotics. It appears as a kind of dermatitis on the puggle's head and may be swollen and raw.

If you look very closely at this sweet, little puggle, Jagger, you can see her head is affected by the 'strangle.' Who wants to see their adorable puggle suffer needlessly?

Breeders who have puggles that are afflicted with this genetic and stress-induced condition should stop breeding at once. Do your research and try to find a reputable breeder, and hopefully one that has references and satisfied customers with whom you can check before buying a puggle.

If your puggle has "puppy strangle" or any other genetic disorder, don't panic. He or she is still capable of being a perfect puggle and in all likelihood will not show signs of his or her disorder once it has been identified and treated.

What's important is that you know all the signs and symptoms, so you can get your puggle treated as soon a problem arises!

Peeing Puggles

Having a tough time house training your Puggle?

Puppy Training Pads from your local, reputable pet supply store might be the solution you're looking for. In fact, I just check their website and the Pet Gold Puppy Training Pads are currently on sale.

You can train your puppy in as little as one week with these training pads. The super absorbent plastic-lined pads are secured within an easy-to-clean plastic tray to protect your floors and carpets.

Which is great, because believe me, having your new Puggle puppy pee all over the carpet numerous times a day is NOT the way to go about training a dog.

Celebrities and Puggles

Puggles really took off as a popular dog breed after numerous celebrities like Jake Gyllenhaal and Julianna Moore bought puggles for their own homes.

It's no wonder that celebrities often choose puggles as a breed for their dog; puggles are among the smartest, best looking and affectionate of dog breeds!

But it's important to get a puggle not because celebrities do, but because the puggle is a good match for your own personality.

So if you want a dog that will crave your attention and match you wit for wit, then the puggle might be the perfect dog for you!

Cool Christmas Gifts for your Puggle

What could a puggle want besides your love and attention this Christmas?

Well, how about a nice new sweater for those cold winter months, for starters? And maybe one of those fake stockings filled with toys and treats? Any gift that enhances play time with your dog is one they're sure to appreciate.

Here are some suggestions:

A laser pointer. Your puggle will love chasing that light around. You can get some really cool ones now that have a green beam that is so strong, it will actually double as a pointer to constellations. That's right, you can point out stars with these things, no I'm not kidding.

Inflatable Remote control cars. Puggles will go wild trying to figure out what's going on when you drive a small remote control car around the living room. You and the fam will have a blast, and so will your dog! I recommend taking a little fabric to dress the car up to look like an animal. Race that thing out into the living room and let the mayhem begin!

Tennis ball launcher. Here's another one that the dog in the family will appreciate. With one of these devices, you can whip a tennis ball hundreds of feet with minimal effort. Your dog will love this, and they're gonna get completely tuckered out from using it! Plus, you'll have a blast slingshotting tennis balls.

There are so many options for getting your pet a cool gift this Christmas. Being creative about it is half the fun!

Poinsettias and Puggles

This time of year, you may be tempted to fill your house with this popular and lovely holiday decoration. You may have heard the rumors that poinsettias are fatal to pets if ingested. Lucky for you, this is a myth! Your poinsettias and puggle can co-exist this holiday season.



You might want to keep your poinsettias out of reach of curious canine mouths, because poinsettias can cause mild gastrointestinal irritation such as diarrhea or even vomiting in severe cases. But poinsettias are not toxic to pets. So decorate with this festive and beautiful plant this holiday!

Harley Benjamin

After a hard day of playing, Harley is ready for a nap. Sydney shared these photos of his sometimes hyper Harley Benjamin. Sydney says, "He is very hyper at times, but loves to give kisses and snuggle with you while you sleep." Well, Sydney, he looks like he will be ready for more romping after this nap. I can see why you and your family would spoil Harley!

Bozo and Munk-Munk Revisited

Thanks to Kristine from Ohio for these awesome Puggle pictures! The two dogs pictured here are named Bozo and Munk-Munk. Sweet names, Kristine!

Spicy Cinnamon

This puggle is now eleven months old and has filled Caroline's life with sugar and spice and everything nice. Here Cinnamon is 7 or 8 months old and is already showing her personality!

Caroline says about Cinnamon: "She's a very inquisitive dog, and chews on almost everything. Bones, shoes, brushes, chairs." As a puggle owner, Caroline, I certainly can relate to that! My puggle loves her chew toys and whenever we travel, I have to pack her toys. Thank you, Cinnamon and Caroline, for sharing!

Bozo and Munk-Munk Today

We visited with Bozo and Munk-Munk from Ohio back in 2008. Here at All About Puggles we wondered, 'Where are they today, Kristine, and how are they doing?' Well, wonder no more, everyone, because Kristine sent this recent picture of Bozo and Munk-Munk having fun in Ohio. That puggle on the chair looks like she's sitting pretty. Thanks Kristine for the update.

Alli is All That!

What wonderful companions Puggles can be and in these photos, you can see how much fun they can be, too. Steven wrote in recently about his Puggle, Alli, who is about 13 years old but from this photo (looking a little like Harriet Potter) she could pass for three years old.

Steven had this to say about his Puggle companion, Alli:

"...she is very affectionate, agreeable and loyal member of our family. She loves to cuddle up with us under a blanket and relax."

Steven goes on to say about Alli:

"She even likes to sit up on the couch or lie on her back." Well Steven, it appears that Alli is certainly happy to be in your company! Puggles are such wonderful companions and as you can see with Alli, she can be All That! Thanks so much, Steven and Alli for sharing some of your photos!
