  • S2 EP12: What is wrong with my Pug?
    Dec 10 2023

    Meet Pug-mom Rachel and her beautiful little girl Agatha, whom you’ll be able to hear snoozing, or should I say snoring, throughout the episode in that ever-so-cute little style that only a Puggie can.

    This is a wonderful joyful episode about Agatha, how they met and what their Pug Life has been like – especially the anecdote about their bonding within minutes of meeting which I am sure you can relate to. And then there is the question that Rachel had for me … What is wrong with my Pug”?

    So you’ll have to listen to the episode to find out what was ‘wrong’ with Agatha!
