Pugs require attention, but should also have a space of their own in which they feel comfortable when you are not home or are otherwise occupied. Provide your pug with an area of its own including a bed and blankets, some toys, and easy access to food and fresh water. Consider putting the space in the corner of a well-used area in your home. This way, even if you cannot pay attention to your pug for a moment, they do not feel alone. Remember that pugs are sensitive to very hot temperatures and rapid temperature changes. Avoid setting up their space in areas with continued direct sunlight or near heating and cooling vents. Pugs are prone to nervousness and anxiety. You can help them calm down by being consistent in your daily routine. This means scheduling feeding times, walks, play times, and quiet times as close to the same time every day as possible. Your personal schedule may change, but it is important to you try to keep your pug's schedule the same. Ask a friend or neighbor to help you out with feeding and walks on nights you know you'll be home late. The pug's distinct physiology makes them susceptible to a number of health problems, including breathing and joint issues. Because of this, it is important to schedule a vet check as soon as you bring your new pug home. Your vet will be able to check for common pug health complications and make suggestions for care, such as what to feed your new dog. If you want your pug to be comfortable, you'll need to learn how it communicates and how to properly respond to it. If you don't have a lot of experience with dogs, educate yourself on how they communicate so that you can interpret your pug's body language and respond appropriately. This is especially important if you have children in the house. Teach your children how to recognize when your dog is anxious or fearful, so that they know when to back off. For example, if a guest is petting your pug and its tail is between its legs, it is likely scared and/or uncomfortable. To make your pug comfortable, politely ask your guest to take a couple of steps back, crouch down to the dog's level, and hold out their hand so that the dog can come to them.
