Question: are pugs prone to ivdd?
Answer: Chondrodystrophic breeds (those with long bodies) include Dachshunds (the breed with the highest incidence of IVDD), as well as Basset Hounds, Corgis, Lhasa Apsos, Pugs, Boston Terriers, Pekingese and more. ... IVDD can also affect younger dogs, and when this happens it might be as a result of a genetic weakness or injury.
