A Chihuahua-Pug combo, the Chug coat length can depend on the Chi parent in the mix. As with most crossbreeds, the first-generation cross (F1) can produce variable results – ears up, ears down, and some pups taking after one parent more than the other.
FACT SHEET
Those who love the look of a Boxer but can't cope with the size and Tigger bounciness! Many Chugs resemble mini Boxers – still as bouncy but easier to manage!
Someone who isn't prepared to put in the work, socialising and training a pup. Small dogs need all the right early building blocks.
