I have 3 pugs, and am looking at taking in a 6 month old lab puppy. My youngest pug is fem 6 mos, then a male 3 1/2, and my oldest is a 5yo male... ALPHA dog! Can this arrangement work? Have a fenced yard and they will all get exercise.

I don't see why not. They are both very friendly dogs and if you socialize them and introduce them properly, they should get along fine. Just know that it could take a while for your Pugs to get used to the new addition. Especially considering the Pugs are so much smaller than the Lab. I'm sure you know how to introduce them, you've done it twice before!

Labs can get along with anybody, but your lab will need significantly more exercise than your pugs. He will probably annoy the oldest one until he grows up, which for a lab can take 2-3 years.

Vet charges,ect. A pug and a Lab,might desire to get alongside,whether,you will possibly be able to desire to be the choose in this one. How friendly is your lab? Does he take excitement in being around young toddlers,and different canine? Does your lab prefer to play tough? Does he chew,or have the different problems? If he has undesirable conduct,likelihood is,The pug will learn from the lab,and prefer to be like him. wish this facilitates! =)

a lab puppy is mostly friendly to all dogs. your youngest pug will become his life long friend if they get along. the older pugs may be distubed by his playfullness. i assume they are mostly socialised as they are already in a crowd of three.
btw i have a five year old pug and would like to find a girlfriend and perhaps mate. is your female pug available when she turns 1 year old? contact me @98922083 roland

I can't think of why it can't work. The lab will be rather energettic, but as most of the dogs are puppies, they should learn to get along.

It really depends how well the dogs (pugs) get allong with each other.

I have 3 labs and a chiwawa/rat terrier mix ( only 8lbs. ) and they all get on great. My biggest lab--145 lbs lets the little one sleep right in the curve when he sleeps.He actually protects her..
