PUG—The Pug is supposed to 
have been brought originally to 
Holland from China, and thence to 
England by traders of the Dutch 
East India Company. It was in 
England that most of its develop- 
ment took place. This toy dog is 
very compactly built, alert, and 
companionable. He is short-faced 
like the Bulldog, has a tightly curled 
tail, and his hair is short, fine, and 
glossy. In color the Pug is silver or apricot fawn, with black mask and 
ears, and a black trace on the back. He is also solid black. The weight 
is from 14 to 18 pounds. 
TOY POODLE — This toy dog is just like the larger Poodles except 
that it should not exceed 12 pounds in weight, and is 10 inches or 
under in height. It is a great 
favorite in France and has 
now become a house pet in 
this country. The Toy 
Poodle is active, intelligent, 
and well built. His coat is 
very profuse, and like the 
larger Poodles, is clipped and 
may be corded or non-cord- 
ed. He may be of any solid 
color.
