Item Details:
The little pugs were originally bred in China as far back as 500 BCE, where they were lap dogs for the Chinese Emperors. For many centuries, Buddhist monks in Tibet kept the breed alive before it was exported to Europe in the 16th century, where it became a favorite of royalty and nobility across the continent, who kept pugs as coach dogs. Napoleon Bonaparte's wife Josephine had a particular love of her pug, Fortune, who was the only member of her family allowed to visit her after she was imprisoned at Les Carmes.
