What breed is this.........

-
Pig ugly French Pug
-
Is there a difference between pugs and French pugs?
I thought it looked puggy, but it's not fat like a pug an has very big ears
-
Looks like a cross breed to me. Pretty sure it isn't a pure breed pug.

Looks like Pug X Staff.
Nasty, although will probably be healthier than a pure-bred Pug. :grin:
-
It's a bug/puggle, a beagle crossed with a pug.

Or at least that's what it looks like.
-
Maybe but the first pic was dodgy angle and the one shown is also a LOT more pug faced and coloured than the other two. Still wouldn't have one :sick:
-
I reckon puggle or a pug x cavalier spaniel?
-
Please say werent thinking of getting one???
Weimaraner FTW...brains and not as manic as border collie or spaniel

Or a Vizsla. Quieter than a Weimaraner and a lot of fun.

Yep, for my girlfriend! i Just like dogs, and we cant have and dont want a big dog for reasons i wont go into.
Shes loves pugs, i personally dont like the look of them, but this little fella looks awesome! so a cross or a boston terrier is the compromise!
-
miniature Schnauzer could be another option?
-
I have a border terrier that is a great dog if you are into little dogs, but not yappy, and very easy to train and look after.
No hereditary health problems (unlike some pugs)
Just hate this designer dog 'fad' that is going on lately, with labradoodles and the like,
-
Im not a fan of little dogs, But my lady really wants one.
I can get my big dog fix borrowing my mums lab!

labradoodles have a place - this is an attempt to create a low-allergen dog, as they do not shed. Poodles don't have the temperament for a lot of people, but don't shed. Crossing them with the jolly Labrador provides a much more friendly dog which is suitable for families.
-
Sorry dh, unfortunately not always the case! Do I get dh defeat points now :D
Some do shed like bastards!
Also have temperament of complete bastards when in the wrong hands!
-

Of course not. Such is the nature of genetics you won't always get the temperament, or the lack of shedding.
Provided the traits you are breeding for are dominant you should get approximately 75:25 ratios of the favourable traits.
That's why I used the term 'attempt'.
Your points are avoided.
That is all.
-
Touché haha
Still only come across a couple of well trained non bitey ones in practice though, mostly a handful!
-
Mongrels are the way forward.
Here are my boys:

I'm not too hot on small dogs but our Westie was a old of fun, if not a bit smelly.
My brother has a rescued bulldog which has a great personality. She is a bit noisy though.
-
I think it looks like a pug x beagle (or 'puggle' if you want to spend £500 quid on one). I wouldn't go for a beagle personally, have heard they can be very wilful/stubborn which combined with their scenting instinct can be hard to deal with.
I have a crossbreed, a lurcher, she is a wonderful dog but her hunt/chase instinct makes her a near constant challenge when out :rolleyes:
Still wouldn't ever have anything other than a sighthound despite the difficulties.
