Dogs, regardless of their breed, can be affected by separation anxiety. It's a behavioral issue where a dog gets too attached to their human or other dogs, and as a result, they feel stressed when separated. In my experience, pug puppies and adult pugs always crave human interaction! Separation anxiety is more common in some breeds, and pugs, unfortunately, are among them. This can lead to an adult pug behaving like a naughty puppy, barking excessively, or showing other undesirable traits. You can manage your pug's separation anxiety with patience and proper care. As social animals, dogs, like pugs, crave companionship. If you leave a pug alone for long periods, it may get anxious, leading to destructive behavior. Recognizing the symptoms and helping your pug cope is essential.
