Average lifespan: about 12 to 15 years
Though loveable pugs have a reputation for having a host of health problems, this ancient Chinese breed has a longer than average lifespan. Considered the perfect house pet for their easy-going adaptability, these incredibly affectionate and loyal companions are happy just about everywhere you put them—country, city, or anywhere in between.
It is true, however, that pugs are pigs and will overeat if given the chance. To give your pug the best shot at the longest life possible, make sure you keep an eye on their waistlines.
