CHECKING THE PUG HEAD WHAT YOUR HANDS SHOULD DO TO CORRECTLY EXAMINE A PUG’S HEAD
By Donelle Richards
1. Place your fingers behind the ears and your pinkies under the head, and use your thumbs for the examination of the head.
2. Move your thumbs around the head to feel the full, large, round head.
3. Feel for good width of jaw. You can also feel if the jaw is wry. The width of jaw should ideally be near the outside edge of the eye.
4. Put your thumb in from of the mouth to feel the slightly under- shot bite. Be careful to not block the nasal passages.
5. You have now successfully examined the Pug head.
