A Chug can have a smooth, short coat whereas another dog might boast having a longer one if there was a longhaired Chihuahua in their ancestry. Having a Pug as a parent breed means they do shed quite a bit throughout the year, although more so during the Spring and then again in the Autumn. This means they need regular brushing to keep their coats tidy and any loose and dead hair off the furniture. Some Chugs have a lot of wrinkles and folds around their faces which is another physical trait inherited from the Pug and it’s important for these to be kept clean which can be done using a baby wipe. Once clean, it’s essential for the folds to be thoroughly dried because if any moisture remains in a fold it provides the perfect environment for a bacterial infection to take hold which could lead to a nasty and sore infection.
