The Pug Wiener Dog mix, also known as the Pugweenie, is a delightful combination of two popular breeds: the Pug and the Dachshund. This unique hybrid inherits the endearing traits of both its parents, resulting in a lively, affectionate, and somewhat quirky companion.
Pugweens typically weigh between 8 and 16 pounds and stand around 8 to 12 inches tall at the shoulder. Their bodies are long and low to the ground, with short legs and a slightly arched back. Their heads are round with a distinctive short snout and prominent eyes. The Pugweenie's coat can vary in color, including fawn, black, apricot, and brindle.
Pugweens are known for their outgoing and friendly personalities. They are eager to please and enjoy spending time with their human family. They are typically good with children and other pets, making them excellent family dogs. However, their strong prey drive may lead them to chase small animals.
