The Puggle dog breed is a mix between the Pug and a Beagle breed. They are one of the most popular mixed breeds of dogs today as they account for over 50% of mixed dog breed sales in the US.
Puggles have gained their popularity because they are considered a very cute and cuddly dog and are the perfect size for any family. They usually grow an average of 10 to 15 inches high and weigh an average of 15 to 20 pounds when fully grown. Their hair is short and they come in a variety of colors including beige, black, or silver.
As soon as you see a Puggle dog breed you can easily identify the characteristics of each breed in the mix. Their face has the look of a Pug, but the nose is the shape of a Beagle. Their elongated noses actually help them to breath easier. The Puggle is the size of both dog breeds and has the loving personality of each breed. This mixture contains the best characteristics of each breed of animal.
The Puggle has become so popular that it even costs more than some pure breeds. Mixed breeds like this dog are known as being more resilient and less prone to genetic and physical defects that are found in pure breeds. Mixed breeds are not prone to inbreeding, which has helped develop this lack of defects.
It is very important to take good care of a Puggle just like any other dog. They need to be properly fed and have fresh clean water in order to be healthy. They require the right mixture of vitamins, minerals, proteins, and carbohydrates. You should be very careful not to feed your dog just anything because some of them have very sensitive stomachs.
Dog grooming is also very important, as this breed tends to have sensitive skin. Hypoallergenic shampoos are available for just this issue. You should bath them regularly, but not too much, so that their skin becomes dry.
Puggles do like more attention than some other breeds as they love to be around people. You should spend 2 to 3 hours a day with them playing or teaching commands or tricks. 
The Puggle is very smart and can learn things that you teach them very fast. You should also start training your dog as early as possible. The earlier you start training them to do things properly, there is a lesser chance that they will have bad habits when they get older. It's much harder to break any dog's habits when they become older.
It is very important that when you are looking for any dog, either pure breed or mixed, that you get them from a reputable breeder. An experienced breeder will make sure that your dog is as healthy as possible and won't sell you a puppy before it is old enough to leave its parents. Also, make sure that you are serious about wanting to own a Puggle. It's a popular trend these days, but a trend is no reason to buy a dog. The Puggle dog breed requires lots of love and attention and if you provide this, they will be a loyal companion and friend.
