The puggle (that’s a beagle-pug mix) is one of the newer designer dogs to hit breeding farms. Puggles are low maintenance, affectionate, and at 20 to 30 pounds, small enough to snuggle with. Legacy Kennels breeds puggles, Shih Tzus, and pugs, and is located just an hour outside of the Twin Cities, in Lester Prairie. To get the pick of the litter, sign up for Legacy’s e-newsletter on the kennel’s Web site.
