A new study has suggested that pugs can no longer be considered a typical dog due to heir high health risks.
As a result, experts are now advising people to not buy the dogs until there is an improvement in their health and their body shape shifts to being less extreme.
Research from the Royal Veterinary College (RVC) has revealed the health of the dog breed in the UK is now substantially different and largely worse than other dogs with pugs almost twice as likely to experience one or more disorders annually compared.
