puggle Care
While the Puggle doesn't necessarily require professional grooming it is important to have a care routine in place. Both the Beagle and Pug shed heavily so brushing their coat about twice a week will reduce how much fur you will see around the house. It's also important to bathe them no more than once a month unless dirty. To prevent irritated skin make sure to completely dry your Puggle after a bath and always pay close attention to keeping any face wrinkles clean and dry.
