Boston Terrier Pug Mix
Profiling The Boston Terrier Pug Hybrid
The Boston Terrier Pug mix produces a very friendly dog,
that ends up having fewer health problems than a purebred
pug.
Both of these dog breeds, the Boston Terrier, and the Pug
are compact dogs that are well proportioned. Both
friendly and eager to please their masters.
Not one Boston Terrier Pug mix is similar, so below is a
summary of some characteristics of both breeds. Your dog
will fit somewhere in between these two standards:
Pugs:
Folded over ears
Long tail
Weight: 14 to 18 pounds
Colors: Fawn or Black.
Head: deep wrinkles
Boston Terrier:
Erect ears
Short tail
Weight: 15 and 25 pounds
Colors: white, black, brindle, grey, seal
Head: no wrinkles
Height 15 to 17 inches
By reading the characteristics of these two dog breeds, you
can see that your dog will likely be between 14 and 25 pounds
as an adults.
Boston Terrier Pug mixes are not very
common, but you may find one at a shelter or rescue. Few
breeders sell these hybrids, so they are hard to find.
One advantage that this dog has over the Pug, is that it
might have less respiratory problems, although both the Boston
Terrier and Pug are considered to be Brachycephalic
breeds.
