ACKNOWLEDGED POINTS. 
Symmetry.—Symmetry and general appearance, decidedly square 
and cobby. A lean, leggy Pug and a dog with short legs and a 
long body are equally objectionable. 
Size and Condition —The Pug should be mudtum in parvo, but 
this condensation (if the word may be used) should be shown 
by compactness of form, well-knit proportions, and hardness of 
developed muscle. Weight from 13 to 17 lbs. (dog or bitch). 
Body.—Short and cobby, wide in chest, and well ribbed-up. 
Legs.—Very strong, straight, of modérate length, and well 
under. 
feet.—Neither so long as the foot of the hare, nor so round 
as that of the cat; well-split-up toes, and the nails black. 
Muzzle.—Short, blunt, square, but not upfaced.
