  1. I have owned a Pug for almost 5 years, since she was 8 weeks old. She is a wonderful companion who is always ready for my attention. Because I am very hard of hearing, she, by nature, has become very mindful of door bells and phone ringings, as well as anyone knocking on the door. She is a marvelous traveler when we go away, staying in her pen and never making noise, but always ready for a walk when we stop for ‘facilities’. She and my Boston Terrier, that I had before her, are and have been indescribable companions.
