Attitude, character and temperament of the breed
Possible character traits of Siberian Husky and Pug mix - Such is probably his nature.
The Siberian Husky and Pug mix is a newer breed cross that is becoming increasingly popular among dog owners. This cross is a blend of two very different dog breeds, the Siberian Husky and the Pug. The result is a dog that combines the best of both worlds.
The Siberian Husky is a medium to large dog breed that was originally bred in Siberia. They are known for their thick fur that keeps them warm even in the coldest climates. They are also known for being very independent and stubborn.
The Pug is a small to medium sized dog breed that originated in China. Pugs are known for their flat faces, large eyes and wrinkled skin. They are also known for being very affectionate and loving.
The combination of these two different dog breeds results in a medium sized dog with a thick coat. They are independent and stubborn like the Siberian Husky, but they are also affectionate and loving like the Pug.
The mix of Siberian Husky and Pug is the good companion for people who live in colder climates - it is very uncommon though. They are also a good choice for people who are looking for a dog that is both independent and affectionate.

Some of the most common health problems that occur in Siberian Husky-Pug mixes include hip dysplasia, patellar luxation, and eye problems such as glaucoma and cataracts. Breathing problems are uncommon because the Pug does struggle with them, but by mixing them with a long-billed breed, this problem will not occur.
Hip dysplasia is a condition where the hip joint does not form properly, which can cause pain and lameness. Patellar luxation is another condition that can cause pain and lameness and causes the kneecap to slip out of position. Both conditions can be corrected with surgery, but are considered serious health problems.
Eye problems are also quite common in Siberian Husky Pug mixes. Glaucoma is a condition that can lead to blindness and is common in this breed. Cataracts are another type of eye problem that can occur and can also lead to blindness.
