While the average life expectancy is 13 – 15 years for a healthy, in-shape Pug, sadly, not all Pugs will make it this long. How can you be sure that you’re making the most of each day and giving your Pug the best quality of life possible? Keep reading to find out. When time is limited, most people tend to place more value on each moment. If dogs were to live as long as we do, would we still appreciate them as much? Maybe, but maybe not. Factors such as disease, neurological conditions, infection, diet, physical condition, and muzzle length can significantly shorten their lifespan. How long do Pugs live? Well cared for, healthy Pugs who fall within the normal weight range typically live for 13 – 15 years. While of course, it’s not pleasant to consider the total amount of time you’ll likely have with your dog, having realistic expectations for how long your Pug might live will help you to treasure each and every day and never take for granted the gift that each day with your companion is.


One of the reasons that we love our dogs so much is the fact that they are unselfishly willing to devote their entire lives to simply being our best friends. We all know that the sad truth is that dogs age much more rapidly than people do.
