Pug shedding?

We are in the process of researching puppies to add to our family. We were pretty much set on a Pug puppy until I learned of their shedding. Any information would be helpful, How much does this dog shed? Thank you

Hi! I have a 8 month old pug, and she sheds A LOT! I was warned by others that pugs shed a lot, but I didn’t believe it until I experienced it. I have to admit that it is annoying to have hairs all over me all the time and in my car, my rugs, etc., but she is SO worth it. Trust me, this is probably the only negative aspect of owning a pug. They are adorable, fun, smart dogs! Click on my user name to view the pics of my pug, and you will never choose another breed ! :)

you can reduce shedding significantly by feeding 1/2 to 1 tsp flax seed oil daily on their food.

We love your dog Harvey! He sheda ALOT1111 You can’t have a more loving dog. But if shedding is a problem let someone else have that loving buddy thats worth it.

On a scale of 1 – 5, 5 being the highest. The amount of shedding is at number 2. To know more, please click on:

Ameckley’s right. Fawn (the light ones with black masks) have a double coat (2 coats) while black pugs only have 1 coat and shed less, but they still shed A LOT! I’ve always had cats and dogs so I’m used to having them all in my clthes and bed and everywhere. THe only remedy is too brush regularly and bathe every 2-3 weeks.

I am the proud mother of a 3 1/2 year old black pug named Bogie. It is true that black pugs shed much less than the fawn ones, and compared to many other breeds his shedding is hardly noticeable. I have had multiple other dog breeds over the years that were big time shedders and I can’t say his shedding bothers me much (unless you have all white furniture, then that’s a problem). If you are meant for a pug you will know it when you see them; being a “pug person” is a breed unto itself!
