Pugs have high health risks and 'can no longer be considered a typical dog' from a health perspective, according to experts.
People are being urged not to buy the breed until there is an improvement in their health and body shape. This comes after new research from the Royal Veterinary College (RVC) revealed the health of pugs in the UK is now substantially different and largely worse than other dogs.
It revealed pugs are almost twice as likely to experience one or more disorders annually compared with other dogs. According to the experts, this suggest the pug can no longer be considered a typical dog from a health perspective.
