00:00Hey guys, I'm a Puggle, one of the most popular crossbreeds in America.
00:14We are very sweet dogs that love to be around people.
00:17I guess you could call us social butterflies.
00:20We are very intelligent and curious.
00:22The beagle in us loves to dig and explore.
00:25Puggles have a good amount of energy and love to play.
00:28We tend to be very cuddly.
00:30The Puggle history is about as short as our stature.
00:33We originate from Wisconsin in the 1980s when breeders decided to crossbreed a male Pug
00:38and a female Beagle.
00:40The end result was the Puggle.
00:41Fast forward to now and we are the most popular designer dog around.
00:46Puggles tend to live around 12 to 15 years.
00:49We're a little larger than our Pug fathers, standing 10 to 14 inches and weighing between
00:5413 and 20 pounds.
00:56There are such things as multi-generational crosses so our parents are not always full
01:00bred.
01:01But if we're a 50-50 mix, the mother has to be a Beagle and the father has to be a Pug.
01:08I have my mother's Beagle nose.
01:10This longer snout allows me to be more active than my Pug father.
01:14Our most common coat color is fawn with a black mask, but we can also be all black,
01:20all white, or tricolored.
01:22We inherit some health issues from both sides, like reverse sneezing from our Pug parents.
01:27We can be fairly easy to train, just remember, we may be intelligent, but we can be stubborn.
01:33I'm food motivated, I get that from my Pug dad.
01:37Just don't overfeed me.
01:38No yard?
01:39No problem!
01:40We are energetic and love to play, but as long as you take me out for multiple walks
01:44a day, I'm a happy little Puggle.
01:47So let's review.
01:49I'm a social creature that loves to play and explore.
01:52Like the Rubik's Cube, I'm a product of the 80s.
01:54I'm half Pug, half Beagle, and inherit their smaller size.
01:59I'm a healthy dog if properly cared for.
02:01Just watch out for respiratory issues, Puggles are intelligent and very trainable, especially
02:06if you have some treats to reward me with.
02:08I'm happy in a house with a yard, but I'm also perfectly content in an apartment.
02:13Just make sure you take me out to play a few times a day.
02:16Oh, that reminds me, can you let me out?
02:19I left something in the yard I have to dig up.
