          WELCOME
We are glad you are here!  If you have an interest in the Pug, this is the site to visit. The Pug Dog Club of America is the American Kennel Club’s parent club for the Pug breed. No other club is authorized to represent the Pug with the AKC. Our members and local Chapter Clubs are active as caretakers, protectors and lovers of the breed, committed to a high standard of owning, caring for and/or breeding Pugs. As we expand our site with more information, we hope you will return again and again to read and learn more about this wonderful breed.
​
A Pug’s character is unique in that he is a clown at heart with a terrific sense of humor but at the same time he carries himself with great dignity. They are not too delicate for fun and games. A Pug is anxious to please, anxious to learn and anxious to love. His biggest requirement is that you love him back.
