Water and Squeakers

I'm worried about my pug and squeak toys and water. He hates squeak toys he will hide from them or try to get between me and the toy. I adopted him from the pound so I thought it might be a previous owner thing. Does anyone else have this problem? I also heard that pugs can't swim they just sink. I'm near pools and rivers a lot and usually I will not sit him down for fear of him drowning. Is that true?

snorting or gasping

My nine year old pug has starting making a noise like she is gasping for air. Is this normal for pugs. She doesn't do it all of the time. But I have noticed that she will awake for her sleep and start . It can possible continue for 10-15 minutes. Pug lovers, please give me your take on this.

Dog diet tips

I like this advice for feeding a Bulldog http://dogtime.com/dog-breeds/bulldog#feeding It's easy to overfeed a Bulldog, but obesity can stress his joints, so he shouldn't be allowed to get fat. Keep your adult Bulldog in good shape by measuring his food and feeding him twice a day rather than leaving food out all the time

Pug's Collapsed Lung

I have recently found out my precious pug has a collapsed lung and suffers from seizures. Is this something that happens alot with pugs? Can the collapsed lung be fixed with meds or surgery. She is currently taking phenobarbitol for her seizures. Thanks in advance!
