Pugs are prone to breathing issues due to their flat-faced (brachycephalic) structure. To help, keep your Pug at a healthy weight, as excess weight can worsen breathing problems. Avoid hot, humid weather and strenuous exercise, as it can lead to overheating and difficulty breathing. Ensure they have a calm, cool environment and avoid exposure to smoke or strong chemicals. If your Pug’s breathing issues persist, it’s important to consult your vet. They may recommend treatments or surgeries if they have conditions like brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS).
