Macy Gen Last updated: 18th October 2022A designer breed developed by crossing the English bulldog with the Pug, the Bull Pug is a medium-sized, well-muscled breed, being a replica of both of its parents. Most of them come with a well-pronounced, round head, broad shoulders, medium muzzle, almond-shaped, deep, black eyes, and a curled tail that is folded tightly over its hip. The Bull Pug is even known as the Miniature Bulldog, which is not to be confused with the toy that was bred for downsizing the Bulldog but is extinct at present.

Temperament
Dependable and affectionate, playful and fun-loving, just like its parents, the Pug mixed with English Bulldog is a great family pet, loving to be in the company of its near and dear ones. However, they are not clingy and can even spend a considerable amount of time without your attention. They are perfect couch companions just as their parents because of their relaxed and laidback nature.
Having a gentle demeanor, they are a perfect pet for homes with small children, mingling playfully with the little ones. They would also get along well with other canines mainly when brought up together, though the company of strange dogs could make them wary and shy. They might be extremely friendly to any unknown person like their Pug parent, or a little cautious at first and then amicable or ignorant as the Bulldog.
Care
Exercise
Because of their calm and laid back nature, their exercise needs are not too high, sufficing with a 30-minute walk on a daily, alongside ample playtime. When indoors, you could divert its attention and keep it engaged by giving it a toy or puzzle to solve.
Grooming
Being an average shedder, they need to be brushed daily or once in every alternate day to remove the dead or loose hair. You should also clip your dog’s nails whenever they grow big as well as clean its eyes and ears to keep infections at bay. Brushing its teeth on a routine basis would help in controlling plaque buildup.
Health Problems
The English bulldog and Pug mix are likely to inherit the health issues of their parents like hip dysplasia, patellar luxation, skin ailments, yeast infection, and eye problems. If it has a long snout like the Pug, then it can suffer from respiratory disorders.
Training
The English Bulldog Pug mix could be stubborn and strong-willed like its English bulldog and Pug parents, thus needing firm and tactful handling. However, since they are a product of two of the most intelligent breeds, training would not be too much of a problem once you have a grip on them.
- Obedience training is a must to keep their stubborn nature under control. Teach them commands like “stop,” “no,” “come,” so that it may learn to obey you and refrain from doing anything unpleasant or destructive.
Feeding
Feed your Bull Pug with good quality dry dog food. You can also include a homemade diet simultaneously that can have cooked vegetables such as asparagus, spinach, carrots and sweet potatoes as well as fruits like apples, bananas, cantaloupe, and mangoes. However, make sure you remove the pit and seeds. Protein like meat and cheese could also be added. However, all these should be given in moderation and not before you consult your veterinarian.
