Fresh food for a Pug means real, whole-food ingredients gently cooked rather than extruded. Brachycephalic build and weight-sensitive metabolism make diet quality high-leverage.
Breed-specific health considerations for a Pug
Joint and mobility. Patellar luxation, hip dysplasia, and Pug myelopathy (a spinal condition specific to the breed) are all documented. These need your vet's diagnosis and care; day to day, pre-portioned meals make it easier to keep body weight stable.
