The Pug is a small but robust dog about 25 - 28 cm tall and with an average weight of 15-25lb. They are said to have been bred to be royal companions. The Pug is a very sociable dog. They are extremely smart and terribly stubborn. Their appearance is characterized by a flat, wrinkled face, compact body, and curled tail. Pugs have only three color variations: fawn with a black mask and ears, entirely black, or (much less commonly) silver.
A pug appeared in the popular movie Men in Black. Celebrities such as Maura Tierney and Carol Kane have appeared in TV and print ads with their pugs.
