How to Properly Care for Your Pug: Daily Maintenance Guide

Keeping your pug happy and healthy doesn’t have to be complicated. With the right daily care routine, your furry friend will stay clean, active, and full of energy.

🧼 Grooming and Cleaning

Pugs have short hair, but they shed quite a lot. Brushing them 2–3 times a week helps remove loose fur and keeps their coat shiny. Pay special attention to their facial wrinkles — these need to be cleaned regularly to prevent infections.

Use a damp cloth or pet-safe wipes to gently clean between the folds, then dry thoroughly.

🛁 Bathing Your Pug

Bath your pug every 3–4 weeks, or when they get dirty. Use a mild dog shampoo to avoid skin irritation. Over-bathing can dry out their skin, so don’t do it too often.

👂 Ear and Nail Care

Check their ears weekly for dirt or bad smells. Clean them gently if needed. Trim their nails every few weeks to prevent discomfort when walking.

🐾 Daily Exercise

Pugs don’t need intense exercise, but they still require daily walks. A short walk and some indoor playtime are enough to keep them fit. Make sure to exercise at least 30 min/every walk.
