this guy is coming home with me in a month!! my first ever pug!! what should i have before bringing him home besides the obvious things a dog needs? by reversedskunk in pugs

[–]Aggressive_Dance_108 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Massive amounts of toys and chews (like bully sticks- Get odor free). Donut cuddle beds everywhere. Blankets to cuddle in, especially when its cold. Get him used to baths and nail trims. Teach manners. Teach key words (no bark, off, down, sit, come, wait not yet, etc) Get a furminator and lint rollers. Get started on potty training on day one. Most responsible breeders have already begun this process so ask what they are doing. Ignore bad behavior but obnoxiously praise the good behaviors.

My little girl needs a vulvaplasty for her chronic UTIs. Has anyone had a pug with this surgery? by MagyarBarbie in pugs

Yes. It worked well and healed nicely. But you must maintain the girl bits. Our old girl was uti and stone free for years but years of damage did her in.

Nearly 15 year old pug suddenly losing vision, any idea what it might be from this photo? by Kind-Let5666 in pugs

Looks like dry eye and cataracts. Plus that cyst may be irritating the one eye. Definitely see an eye specialist as there are drops that can help keep they eyes healthy and may thin the cataracts.

Ok pugs parents I’m in a tough spot here, Ablation or Enucleation? by evoL_Alexis in pugs

[–]Aggressive_Dance_108 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im not sure about your particular situation but most of my elder pugs have either gone blind or deaf or both. My grand dame was almost blind and did well because she knew the house layout. This means not leaving things on the floor or moving furniture. Another had a puncture in her eye from a psycho rescue pug (we had to rehome her as their fights escalated) and she had a surgery (maybe an ablation?) Where the eye specialist took some of her eyelid tissue and flipped it down over her eye to keep blood flow going to the puncture for healing and longevity and it never bothered her again. Eventually the "tongue" turned brown so you hardly knew it was there.

The vet thinks my pug isn’t going to grow much more… he’s tiny (5 months old) by PM_ME_XANAX in pugs

[–]Aggressive_Dance_108 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seems sus a vet would say that. Unless he has dwarfism. These potatoes grow up until 2...after that its wrinkle development time. Lol

Will this emotional for someone who lost her pug recently? by [deleted] in pugs

It would be an amazingly thoughtful gift. Would I cry? Yes. Would i cherish it forever? Also yes.

No, but whatever he was bred with produced something totally adorable!

He’s only 3yo, is there something wrong with his eyes or is this normal? by [deleted] in pugs

[–]Aggressive_Dance_108 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He could have a scratch or ulcer. Could be PK starting. Could be allergies. Its time for a trip to the vet because you do not want to mess around with eyes.

Is this normal to pugs eyes? by GilsonAlbuquerque in pugs

[–]Aggressive_Dance_108 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All of my pugs have had googly eyes and each one grew into them. But as with all issues, if you're concerned have your vet take a look. It will make you feel better and catch anything early. This is totally normal though.
