Overview
A relative newcomer in terms of breeds, the Jug is fast becoming a popular breed among owners in the UK. The Jug combines the energetic and playful nature of the Jack Russell with the affectionate and easy-going Pug.
The Jug will often inherit the recognisable face and curly tail of the Pug, although they are not as stocky. Their coat can either be smooth or rough. These outgoing dogs make for great companions and their small stature means they are well suited to apartment living.
