I know, I exaggerate a little. But come on, have you ever seen anything so cute? This little puggle puppy is a real heartbreaker.

I am a big puggle fan, and I keep my eyes peeled to bring you guys the best puggle pictures, and I would have to put this one in my puggle picture Hall of Fame.

Check him out. Something about those ears crack me up!

A very cute puggle.

Puggle Picture: Sweet Lord, this Puggle is CUTE!

Here's a link to a really cute picture of a puggle.

It's a puggle puppy and I dare you to look into his big brown eyes and not to melt.

Impossible.

Puggles truly rule.

Oh, the link. It is here.

Puggle Popularity has been Increasing Over Time...Puggles RED HOT Now

According to an article in the Sun-Sentinel, puggles remain red hot. The article provides an overview of the puggle phenomena and tries to present all sides of the puggle controversy that has been brewing every since the mixed breed cuties rose to national prominence.

What I found interesting is that puggles are not really an overnight phenomena. According to the article:

"Puggles have been around for about five years, and their popularity has risen steadily, Segal said. Although no one tracks their exact numbers, she estimated that there were thousands in the United States. The American Hybrid Canine Association notes that puggles are the most popular type of dog among the 500 litters a month the group registers."

So, puggles have been increasing in popularity for some time now, but they are the "in" breed (not in-bred breed, though) at the moment.

All you have to do is look a picture of a puggle to fall in love. It's no wonder puggles are so d*mn popular!

Puggles, Cell Phones and Dictionaries

British cellular service provider has added the term "puggle" to the dictionary used for those who like to text message with their cell phones. Their predictive text feature has recently been updated with some of the year's new buzzwords and "puggle" made the cut.

According to their press release:

"Did you know that a Puggle is a new breed of dog crossed between a Pug and a Beagle? Or that Vlogs (video blogs) are the latest rage? Language is constantly evolving, with new words becoming part of our culture every day. To help Britons better communicate, these and other words have been added to a special T9 predictive text input dictionary for users to tap into when texting on their mobiles. "

Props to T-9 for recognizing the puggle! Here's the source.
