History

Pugs are a very ancient Chinese breed. About them they wrote in manuscripts, describing: small dogs with short paws and a square muzzle. These animals were very revered by the people in China and were acquired only by noble people, for the common people they were inaccessible.
In 1553 the pugs were sent to France as a gift to the French aristocrats. Thus, the dogs began to "conquer" Western Europe.
And in 1864, Queen Victoria, who was ruling in England at the time, was also interested in square cheerful people. Her subordinates wanted to find pugs for a few months, but they found only one.
Becoming popular, soon pugs were already on the covers of magazines. Moreover, they became the most famous decorative dog in the world.
