    5 out of 5 stars Fantastic Book! Love it!   October 16, 2008
    I bought this book because I will be bringing home a pug puppy soon. While I am two weeks from picking up my beloved pug, I have found this book to be a great book, so far. I'm almost finished reading it. I'm reading it cover to cover and have already found out that I want to go back through and take notes on a few things to help with training. It lists all sorts of health information on pugs, the basic commands for training, bathing/grooming, a section for 'senior pugs' and I dont even know what else! There's so much information in this book! I almost bought multiple pug books at the same time to read and now, i'm glad i didn't. There's no need for them. This one book pretty much covers a lot of the questions i've had so far.

    As someone above mentioned, it does go in depth a little more with the training aspect to train your dog to get off something by saying "off" following with "good off" - or, to only say "no!" when it's something that you dont want them to try again - as opposed to saying no when the pug gets a training command wrong. This stuff makes perfect sense to use clear words and praise so they're not confused, it's just stuff that i probably wouldn't have thought about myself. Not only these few things, but there are more like them in the book. It's just a great general book to have for a pug owner (or soon-to-be owners, like me!)

    I've read just about everything written about pugs and this is one of the better books. The tips are helpful and if you aren't aware of it, pugs have many health issues. The result of years of breeding makes for some common ailments. A good choice for pug lovers.


    5 out of 5 stars Pugs are Lovable   October 28, 2007
     5 out of 5 found this review helpful

    Wonderful book replete with information about pug care, i.e. grooming, cleaning their facial folds and finger curling their doubly curled tails when they are still puppies.

    You also get to read about training and breeding your pug and overall good dog care specific to this breed. You learn what words and short commands tend to work best for pugs and you and your pug can share in the rewards - limitless pug cuddles. You even get some humorous "pug tales" as well. What is not to love about a pug? Pugs are so lovable!

    Great book! Very practical information about what pugs need as far as bathing, skin fold wiping (beware of swamp face), and other general pug hygiene. Very practical training tips, such as belly rubbing to assure your pug that you are dominant (as well as providing a delightful belly rub) and choosing useful words for training, such as "off" instead of "no jumping," so that that your pug can be praised with the same word, for example, "Good Off," which then serves as a built-in reward (and doesn't exhaust the word "No"). Interesting and funny information on pug personalities. What's not to love about a pug?

    We thought that this book was great. It has really helped us since we became new pug owners. It explained about health concerns and potty training, to what kind of toys pugs like the best. I would highly reccommend this book to anyone thinking about getting a pug!
