Pug Pups.

A Pug will normally deliver a litter of 6 – 9 pups.

And If you are buying a pup puppy be sure to go to a reputable breeder, that way you are sure that you are buying a pet which has been well cared for is from good stock.

Caring for your new pup puppy

Once you get your pug pup make sure you have a vet.

You should take your pug puppy to the vet soon after receiving it and ask the vet to give the pup a full check-up, any needed vaccinations and a check for worms that might have been passed on by the mother’s milk.

Pug puppies should be vaccinated at the ages of 8, 12 and 16 weeks old and your breeder and vet will advise you of which vaccinations have been given and a schedule of the ones to come.

Keep your new pug pup away from other dogs until all of the vaccinations have been given.

Feeding

Try not to restrict the amount of food you give to your pup puppy. But try not to vary the sort of food.

Pugs have fairly weak stomachs and are best suited to a standard diet without too much in the way of sweets and human food.

But in the formative weeks your puppy will be growing quickly and need a lot of nutrition to develop. So It is a good idea to make sure that good quality food is always available and to let the puppy eat when it is hungry.

Pug Puppy Training.

It is important to start training your puppy early. Pugs are notoriously stubborn so it is best to start early.

They love to please so positive encouragement is always going to work better than scolding.
