About the Daug
The Daug is a hybrid dog that is made up of a combination of two different purebreeds. It's a cross between the Dachshund and the Pug. We've found the best method for understanding the characteristics of the Daug is to read both of its ancestors descriptions taking note of their temperaments, size and general look.

General Description
Most have a long body that is close to the ground with a Pug like face. They come in brown and black. Their hair is short like that of the Dachshund. Their ears are mid-sized and are not as large as a Dachshund. They usually have curly, Pug-like tails.
Character
Daugs inherit the playful characteristics of the Pug but strive to please their owners like a Dachshund. They are known to bark and be protective of their owners and territory. They love personal time and they enjoy being next to their owners. They are intelligent and fairly easy to train. They enjoy completing task and exercising.
General Health
Daugs are known to be a healthy breed. They do not inherit the breathing problems of the Pug or the back problems of the Dachshund.
Maintenance
Daugs need to be bathed frequently. Some may develop a distinct odor. Frequent cleaning of the ears and folds is needed.
Ideal Environment
Daugs thrive in most environments. They prefer to be kept inside and do not enjoy prolonged exposure to cold temperatures. They require daily leash walks.
