History: The Bugg dog breed was developed through a cross between the Pug and the Boston Terrier. It's difficult to say when the breed originated, but the Bugg likely developed during the 1990s, when breeders began intentionally mixing different purebred dogs to create designer dogs. The goal of breeding designer dogs was to combine the best characteristics of two purebreds into one dog. This is how the Bugg, and most other designer dogs, came about. Today, Buggs can be found in homes across the world. The breed is registered by several small dog clubs including the American Canine Hybrid Club (ACHC) and the Designer Dogs Kennel Club (DDKC).

Temperament: Buggs are playful, energetic, and loyal dogs that are a great choice for first-time or novice dog owners. Just like their parents, Buggs are incredibly loving dogs that make great companions. They're at their happiest when they are spending time with their owners, whether it involves cuddling on the couch and watching TV or taking a walk. The Bugg is a social dog that gets along well with children and strangers. However, due to the territorial nature of the Boston Terrier, some Buggs may find it difficult to get along with other dogs and pets, especially if they are not socialized properly. In terms of training, the Bugg is willing to please and fairly intelligent. Like their Pug parents, Buggs usually respond best to reward-based training. Over all, the Bugg makes an affectionate, easygoing little companion.
