The name Pug is believed to have derived from this dog's resemblance to the pug monkey. That also fits the breed in other ways. Pugs tend to be curious and mischievous. They always seem to have a look of mischief and fun on their face, just like a monkey.
One way to reduce your pug�s risk of Kennel Cough, as well as other diseases, is to make sure that you supply the kennel with your pug�s own personal items. There is a bigger chance of transferring diseases when the DOGS share personal items. If you supply the kennel with your pug�s own personal gear, such as food and water bowls, food itself, toys or bedding, it will serve a dual purpose. It will lower the risk of the pug getting sick and it will also help the pug to be more comfortable and stay closer to his daily routine.

By choosing a kennel that insists on vaccinations, supplying the kennel with your pug�s personal items and ensuring that the kennel is clean and well ventilated, you can greatly reduce the risk of your pug getting sick during his stay.
