Puggle Training

Puggles are fairly easy to train as they are intelligent and treat motivated. Puggles can learn all basic commands including: sit, down, stay, settle, off, take it, leave it, fetch, roll over, give me paw, and come. More advanced skills can be taught and require additional training. Puggles can learn agility courses as they like to perform. Potty training can be challenging at times. The best way to train a Puggle is with reward and repetition as they sometimes can be stubborn.

Puggle Barking

Most Puggles do bark just like any other dog breed. Some Puggles are very quiet. Young Puggle puppies may bark when they are left alone in their crates. Adding a warm water bottle or stuffed animal may help to relax a new pet Puggle. Puggles are also social and may bark when they hear or see someone at the door. They just want to say hello so you will come over and pet them.

Puggle Shedding

Puggles do shed moderately. Their short hair and smaller size seem to minimize the problem. It is advised to brush your Puggle weekly to remove excess, loose hair.

Puggle Allergies

A Puggle is not a hypoallergenic dog. Both parent breeds are also not hypoallergenic dogs. If you are allergic to a Pug or Beagle you may be allegic to a Puggle.

Puggle Howling

Some Puggles will howl on occasion. They can inherit this trait from the beagle. A Puggle may howl if they become over excited.
