The average weight range for pugs is anywhere from 18 - 30 pounds, with about 22 pounds being the more common. Some pugs are larger boned than others, so this is the main factor in their weight. But you have to be careful not to let them get overweight because of the breathing problems it can cause due to their short snouts. Being overweight can also result in numerous other medical problems, as well.

It's best to not free feed (keep food available at all times) since pugs do tend to have 'piggish' appetites. I feed my pugs twice a day, at the same times each day. By feeding them twice a day instead of the once a day feeding many people do, I have found that they have much less digestive problems. And it helps control their weight. You also have to be careful to not let them have too many treats between meals, and NO table scraps, no matter how tempted you are to give it to them.
