Unfortunately, when you take a dog that has a high energy level and thus a high oxygen requirement such as the Beagle and mix it with the bracycephalic characteristics (very short muzzles such as the Pug) of the Pug, I would wonder how well the dog handles the change in the amount of air that enters its lungs. Pugs and Bulls, etc have very different requirements in that respect, I have heard.
I watched Animal Planet today and the breed was Beagles and I was amazed at the amount of air they need to run and exercise. I had not thought much about that Puggle since I saw it on the news, til today. Anybody have one of these dogs that can share their opinions and experience??
Thanx. |
