The pug is a breed of dog with physically distinctive features of a wrinkly, short-muzzled face, and curled tail. The breed has a fine, glossy coat that comes in a variety of colours, most often fawn or black, and a compact square body with well-developed muscles. In ancient times, Pugs were bred to be companions for ruling families in China. Pugs later spread to other parts of Asia. In Tibet, Buddhist monks kept Pugs as pets in their monasteries. The modern Pug's appearance probably changed after 1860 when a new wave of Pugs were imported directly from China. The median life span of Pugs is 11 years, which is in line with other breeds of the same size.
