Mia

Pug · 2014-2026

Mia was my first pug and the dog who started my love for the breed. She was sweet, loyal, funny, and always seemed to understand what was happening around her. She had a huge personality packed into a little pug body and left a permanent mark on our family.

Mia was my very first pug, and saying she changed my life would be an understatement. She had a way of knowing when someone needed her. If you were sad, she would stay close until somehow things felt a little better. She was more than a pet—she became part of the family and part of who I am. I will always be grateful for the years I had with her.

Mia was always looking out for everyone. If you were sad, she somehow knew and would stay close until you felt better. If the other pugs started fussing or fighting, she would jump right between them like the little peacekeeper of the house. She was truly a special dog, and I will miss her forever.
