The Pug is said to have originated in China around 400 B.C. and it is possible they may be a scaled down relative of the Tibetan Mastiff as they were once the the pet of Tibetan Monks. They were then taken to Holland during the 1500’s by Prince William of Orange who became William III of Britain. The breed was standardized in 1883 and the British Pug Dog Club was formed. American fanciers obtain most of their stock from England and they were accepted in 1885 by the AKC.
