Puggles are a relatively new hybrid dog breed. the first puggles ever bred were in 2000 by a breeder named Wallace Havens, owner and operator of Puppy Haven Kennels. The puggle is not purebred, it is a cross of a purebred beagle mother and apurebred Pug father. The hybrid puggle is recognized by the American Canine Hybrid club.
Many people believe that the puggle has many health advantages over the purebreds they are derived from. The weaknesses in the purebread are less pronounced, and the genetic mix makes for an overall stronger dog.
Being that both purebred parents the Pug and Beagle are great with children, the Puggle makes for a great family dog or companion. Children and frequant outings keep the Puggle occupied, puggles require an adequate amount of activity and attention.
Wheneveer you cross breeds, you are very likely to produce traits from either breed. It would be wise to find a breeder who knows what they are doing to ensure a strong, healty dog. Find a reputable breeder here.
