For the past four and a half years, I have been the proud mommy to a beautiful pug named Lola. She is my "fur-baby" and despite how absolutely frustrating it can be to be a pet owner at times, I wouldn't trade Lola for anything in the world. Pugs can be a lot of work, especially given their health impairments such as respiratory issues and wonky knee joints. But what they lack in being the most physically fit dog, they certainly make up for in amazing personality, adorable sass, cuddles and kisses, and boatloads of fun.
Below are the top 20 reasons, complete with pictures, why pugs are the best dogs ever.
1. Super playful and silly.
2. Great partners for dressing up for Halloween.
3. Always down for a Netflix binge.
4. Observant guard dogs.
5. Support your favorite team with you.
6. Pug kisses are the best.
7. Will eat anything anywhere at any time.
8. Love to lay in the sunshine.
9. Even when disgruntled during bath time, pugs are adorable.
10. Awesome outdoor companions.

12. They didn't choose the pug life, but the pug life chose them.
