Frug

The Frug is a delightful mix of the French Bulldog and the Pug, inheriting the best traits of both breeds. Known for their charming, slightly comical appearance, Frugs make affectionate and playful companions. They are relatively small in size, making them suitable for apartment living, but their energetic nature requires regular exercise.

Frugs are typically friendly and sociable dogs, enjoying the company of their families and even strangers. However, early socialization is important to ensure they are well-adjusted. Their intelligence and eagerness to please make them moderately easy to train, though their stubborn streak can sometimes present a challenge.

Frugs usually have a wrinkly face like a Pug, combined with the sturdy build of a French Bulldog. They can come in a variety of colors, including fawn, black, and brindle. One distinctive feature is their short, curled tail, which they often wag enthusiastically.

Due to their brachycephalic (short-nosed) nature inherited from both parent breeds, Frugs can be prone to breathing difficulties, especially in hot or humid weather. Owners should take precautions to avoid overexertion and ensure access to fresh water.

Frugs have a moderate energy level and need daily exercise to stay healthy and happy. Short walks, play sessions, and interactive toys are all great ways to keep them engaged. Regular grooming is essential to manage shedding and keep their skin folds clean and dry, preventing infections.

Frugs thrive on human interaction and can suffer from separation anxiety if left alone for long periods. Providing them with plenty of attention, training, and mental stimulation can help prevent behavioral issues.
