A puggle is a crossbreed between two breeds of dogs: a pug and a beagle.
Puggles tend to be between 15-30 pounds and stand 13 to15 inches at the shoulders. While colors vary, the vast majority are fawn colored. There are also completely black as well as multicolored (like mixes of black and brown) puggles. There are advantages for the mix breed. For instance, while pugs tend to have pushed in faces, puggles do not. This reduces the risk of the respiratory problems that are associated with pugs.
Some Puggles carry more traits from a Beagle or a Pug so their appearances may vary. This is due to the decreased ability to predict which attributes will be inherited from which parent. Commonly referred to as a "designer dog", puggles have a playful temperament. Puggles tend to exhibit a high level of energy, while simultaneously being loving dogs. They are classified as a lap dog because of their relatively small size and demeanor.
Puggles have a tail the length of a Beagle, but it tends to be curled like that of a Pug. Puggles often have an underbite.
Because of their longer legs, eye socket size, and less effusive wrinkles, puggles often avoid many difficulties with eyes, joints, and skin wrinkles common to pugs. While pugs are particularly susceptible to heat stroke, the longer nasal cavity of the puggle makes the breed more tolerant to the heat, and less likely to overheat while running in the summer. Conversely, their nasal cavities are likely to be shorter and less efficient than those of beagles, which could be a problem if the dog also inherited the beagle's propensity to run, especially for long periods. There is currently no consensus as to whether or not puggles are predisposed to the same health risks of purebred beagles (Wikipedia).
