Someone got a cute snapshot of their puggle hopping around having a lot of fun.
Just goes to show you that puggles can have pretty big tongues!
Anyway, I know my day would not be complete without a puggle picture. A day without pictures of puggles is like a day without sunshine, I say.
Check out this puggle photo here.

Puggle Mentioned
Found a little article that mentioned puggles. And, as I am dedicated to providing puggle news all the time, I thought I would pass it on.
Here is a snippet:
"The upsides of getting such a dog are that cross-breeds tend to be healthier because they come from a more varied genetic background. But on the other hand you can’t always expect that you’re going to get the best genetic traits from both breeds in any individual pup."
As you can tell, the piece is pro-puggle. The author also cautions against buying a puggle just because they are so popular right now.

Celebrity Puggle Sitings-- Puggle Pictures
Found a site with several pictures of Jake Gyllenhaal with his puggle, Boo Radley. Does that name sound familiar? It should if you are a reader. As the site explains,
"Jake Gyllenhaal has a German shepherd named Atticus and a new trendy dog-hybrid puggle (pug + beagle) named Boo Radley. Jake Gyllenhaal named German Shepherd Atticus and puggle Boo Radley after characters from his favorite novel, To Kill a Mockingbird."
If you want to take a look at Jake's puggle pup, just go here.

Puggle from Portland: Depressed Despite Sausages
Apparently, the people at the Portland Mercury added a puggle to their staff. Unfortunately, this puggle puppy named Marshall seems to be a little depressed.
"Marshall is a 15-month-old puggle (pug/beagle breed) who has suffered from acute mental depression since the age of eight weeks. His current symptoms are as follows: listlessness, low energy, general malaise, excessive sleeping, indifference to dogs of the opposite sex, and unexplained pooping in the Mercury's lobby."
The folks at the paper decided to treat the puggles depression by offering him a can of Vienna sausages.
The results were unsuccessful.
If you want to read about puggle psychology, done in a very amusing tongue in cheek manner, you should check out the tale (or is it tail) of Marshall the Depressed Puggle here.

Puggle Popularity Detailed
A Central New Jersey news source ran a great article about the increasing popularity of puggle dogs. Now that the holidays have passed, puggles are still the "in" dog. Puggle popularity remains high!
Here is an excerpt:
"People laughed at Lisa Russo last year when she decided to breed her female beagle with her male pug.
"Everyone made fun of me," the Toms River resident recalls. "And then, in November, when Snoopy (her beagle) had her puppies, all the news stories on the puggles came out."
Now it's Russo who's having the last laugh — when she isn't busy answering her phone. Several advertisements for her litter of seven puggle puppies — three black like their dad and four fawn like their mom, all with wrinkled pug faces and floppy beagle ears and tails — have yielded her countless requests for the newest designer dog, each at $800 a pop."
