A lean Pug breathes better. That's most of the job.
Almost every health problem a Pug has is made worse by weight. The airway is already compromised, the joints are already carrying a heavy body on short legs, and the skin folds are already a warm damp place for trouble. A lean Pug is a meaningfully healthier and longer-lived Pug, and that is the honest headline for this food.
Fat is held to 16% and protein to 25%, with a kibble shaped for an undershot brachycephalic bite so she can actually pick it up rather than scooping and scattering. EPA and DHA at 3 g/kg with borage oil support skin that spends its life in folds, and glucosamine and chondroitin support the joints. For dogs from ten months.
Rice, dehydrated poultry protein, maize flour, animal fats, maize, wheat flour, maize gluten, vegetable protein isolate (L.I.P. — protein selected for its very high digestibility), hydrolysed animal proteins, beet pulp, vegetable fibres, fish oil, minerals, soya oil, fructo-oligo-saccharides, borage oil, hydrolysed crustaceans (source of glucosamine), marigold extract (source of lutein), hydrolysed cartilage (source of chondroitin). Additives (per kg) — Nutritional additives: Vitamin A 29,500 IU · Vitamin D3 800 IU · E1 (Iron) 51 mg · E2 (Iodine) 5.1 mg · E4 (Copper) 15 mg · E5 (Manganese) 67 mg · E6 (Zinc) 143 mg · E8 (Selenium) 0.11 mg. Technological additives: Clinoptilolite of sedimentary origin 10 g. Sensory additives: tea extract (source of polyphenols) 150 mg. Preservatives. Antioxidants.
Store in a cool, dry place, sealed. Use within six weeks of opening. You should be able to feel her ribs — on a Pug that takes some pressing, and if you can't feel them at all she needs less food, not more excuses. Clean and dry her nose fold daily. Walk her early or late, use a harness rather than a collar, and treat any noisy breathing at rest as a vet conversation rather than a breed characteristic.

A guide, not a rule, and err low. Weigh her food on a scale. Two meals. Fresh water, always.
